Top Ottawa Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Ottawa Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good location with walking distance to main locations. Useful stuff, clean room and comfortable bed. Parking is convenient."

Welcominns Hotel Ottawa

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast excellent"

Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre

8/10 Good

"The check in was very straightforward. The front desk gave us clear instructions about parking our car and the daily cost, not included in the daily rate. There is a restaurant on site which is very convenient; the breakfast had several options and was well prepared and presented; the restaurant’s personnel was courteous and very helpful. The fitness room was clean and organized. Our room was clean although the shower’s curtain had a musty smell causing the bathroom to have the same smell. We think that some furniture, particularly outside the restaurant need a facelift."

Hotel V

8/10 Good

"WOW! Très belle endroit!!!"

Arc The Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, clean and comfortable."

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."

Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent!"

Hampton Inn by Hilton Ottawa

10/10 Excellent

"The room was amazing! It was the most spacious and comfortable room we have stayed in."
