All the amenities my room bathroom and common spaces were comfortable warm and inviting. From when you enter you feel at home. Very clean, well organized. The owner Lucy was attentive to my needs. The location was perfect (in front of a parc and close to restaurants and pubs, walking distance from city hall) There’s a bike path just the street above and it’s very easy to get around. Parking is tight though, I parked at the Nature museum which was walking distance from the place. But if you have a small car, there is parking in the back of the inn. So I would definitely recommend this place. I came for the Ottawa marathon and the Rideau Inn hit the mark in comfort, logistics and home away from home :) ##### Christine Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer Jul 6, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A beautiful b&b, very happy with my stay. ##### Jennifer Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Sep 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities A pleasant short stay ##### Barbara Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trevor Sep 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very comfortable and convenient; the staff was excellent.

Staff are polite and welcoming. Depending on the room you are assigned the bathroom and toilet might be in the hallway near the room but are very clean easily accessible. Very close to dinning options about a 5 min walk away, very quiet area to stay. ##### Ashlee Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ariane Oct 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a 10-day stay at the Rideau Inn, and was impressed by how well run it is. The room, bathroom and common areas were kept exceptionally clean, and you could see a great deal of care had gone into their arrangement - the provincial themes for each room are also a nice touch. Lucie the manager is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended overall! ##### Ariane Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jacqueline May 16, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There was no functioning wifi and no hot water despite running the tap for minutes on end. The building is an old house made into an inn. The tv was tiny and had only a few cable channels with Nothing I wanted to watch. I paid $200 per night plus taxes for this!! $100 per night would have been a stretch. And “breakfast” was minimal and cost $2 - I skipped that. How is this listed as a “three star” accommodation?????? I am very disappointed. ##### Jacqueline Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicholas Oct 31, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service The inn was good not great, and the breakfasts were disappointing--some hot food (other than toast) would have been good. I don't feel I got my money's worth. ##### Nicholas Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vedika Jan 26, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The inn has a great charm to it. ##### Vedika Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [C Hotel by Carmen's, BW Premier Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Best-Western-Premier-C-Hotel-By-Carmens.h4500879.Hotel-Information) > > [reStays Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Re-Ottawa.h57577253.Hotel-Information) > > [Cartier Place Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Cartier-Place-Suite-Hotel.h52951.Hotel-Information) > > [The Century House B&B Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-The-Century-House-Bed-And-Breakfast-Ottawa.h10927490.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Kitchener](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Kitchener-Waterloo.h446570.Hotel-Information) > > [Saintlo Ottawa Jail Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-HI-Ottawa-Jail-Hostel.h9354967.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites St. Catharines Conference Center by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hotel-Suites-St-Catharines-Conference-Center.h2572.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Niagara-on-the-Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Niagara-On-The-Lake.h1327316.Hotel-Information) > > [Revery Toronto Downtown, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Revery-Toronto-Downtown.h2232458.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Niagara-On-The-Lake by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Niagara-On-The-Lake.h21511334.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Wyndham-Gatineau-Ottawa-Conference-Centre.h12407.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashbury House B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Ashbury-House-BB.h44489709.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence & Conference Centre Toronto Downtown George Brown Polytechnic Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Residence-Conference-Centre-Toronto-Downtown-George-Brown-College.h17722888.Hotel-Information) > > [Chelsea Hotel, Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Chelsea-Hotel.h27994.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour House](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Harbour-House.h1675928.Hotel-Information) > > [Wingate by Wyndham Kanata West Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Wingate-Kanata-West-Ottawa.h42521073.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Ottawa.h16414.Hotel-Information) > > [Stone Mill Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Stone-Mill-Inn.h8663236.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Niagara-On-The-Lake by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Niagara-On-The-Lake.h21599984.Hotel-Information) > > [Falls Lodge and Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Falls-Inn-Suites.h35228089.Hotel-Information) > > [Chestnut Residence - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Chestnut-Residence-And-Conference-Centre-University-Of-Toronto.h10004406.Hotel-Information) > > [124 on Queen Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-124-On-Queen-Hotel-Spa.h12034264.Hotel-Information) > > [avid hotel Toronto - Vaughan Southwest by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Avid-Hotel-Toronto-Vaughan-Southwest.h71127796.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Ottawa East by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Ottawa-East.h7853.Hotel-Information) > > [SOHO Residences Champagne](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-SOHO-Residences-Champagne.h14659115.Hotel-Information) > > [The Charles Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-The-Charles-Hotel.h6615379.Hotel-Information) > > [Strata Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels-Thriftlodge-Kingston.h918767.Hotel-Information) > > [Les Suites Hotel Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Les-Suites-Hotel-Ottawa.h16000.Hotel-Information) > > [Oban Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Oban-Inn.h903217.Hotel-Information)
