"Room was clean and well maintained. Only 2 staff that I actually met. I did not eat the breakfast as it was 7am when it starts and I had to leave before. Kind of weird that it's in the basement. For the price it was a good clean centrally located place to stay."

8/10 Good
"The room is clean and quiet. I was on the 11th floor, so the view was actually pretty good. The only downside is the internet is quiet slow, around 5 to 7 mbps. It could use a bit improvement there."

Hampton Inn by Hilton Ottawa

Hampton Inn by Hilton Ottawa

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Ottawa. Everything was exceptionally clean—the room was spacious and truly spotless, with every surface looking brand new. It had everything we needed, including shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, an ironing board, and other thoughtful amenities. The room was very quiet, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and the overall comfort was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated the free on-site parking. The location was also very convenient—only about a 10-minute drive from downtown and Ottawa’s main attractions. The only small downside was that breakfast could get quite busy, and the selection was somewhat limited. However, this did not affect our overall experience. The price was very reasonable for the quality of the stay. We were very satisfied and would absolutely book this hotel again on our next visit to Ottawa."
