Top Ottawa Hotel Reviews

Fairmont Chateau Laurier

Fairmont Chateau Laurier

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel itself is beautiful, and has so much history. We really enjoyed how grand it feels and how important it's been in Ottawa's history. We had one of the smaller rooms, which was perfectly fine if a little rough around the edges. The house-keeping service was excellent, as was the reception staff and concierge. They offered us an upgrade at a really reasonable price, although we didn't take it as we were only staying a few nights."
