Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Airport

Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Airport

8/10 Good
"If you were flying in and out of Ottawa Airport, this is a great hotel with a very convenient airport shuttle. Given its proximity to the airport it is always busy so be prepared for that. It’s also dog friendly so don’t be surprised if there’s a dog in the lobby. The lobby bar and restaurant are very good and the staff is very friendly. Check-in can take a little while because they are always busy and they’re always seems to be families or a kids sports team. I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and would rate it four stars across the board, especially if you want something close to the airport"
