Top Ottawa Hotel Reviews

Rideau Residence University of Ottawa

10/10 Excellent

"Air conditioning is good, breakfast is good. Staffs are nice, room is very clean."

Fairmont Chateau Laurier

10/10 Excellent

"The Château Laurier is ideally located within walking distance of Parliament Hill, the House of Commons, the National Arts Centre, and the Rideau Centre shopping mall. The hotel is surrounded by excellent restaurants and features a beautiful indoor swimming pool. Our room was spacious and comfortable, offering a beautiful view of Parliament and the House of Commons. Above all, the Château Laurier is an institution: a historic hotel that has witnessed many important moments in Canada's history and has welcomed royalty, prime ministers, presidents, and renowned actors, among many other distinguished guests. Be sure not to miss the historic photographs displayed throughout the hotel as they offer a glimpse into the rich past of the Château !"
