Good
This hotel need updating and upgrading.
Out-dated decor, bad paint job bathroom door. Slight odour. It’s terrible how there is no bathroom vent.

Exceptional
At the heart of the action
The hotel has an old-world elegance and style but in a 21st C way. The restaurant is excellent (the seafood chowder is the best I've ever had -- and my inlaws are East Coasters!); the gym is well equipped and there is a decent size pool for those who like to get up early and do a few laps. It is centrally located, being a short walk to the Byward Market and all main government offices. It is across the street from the Rideau Centre, City Hall (where there is public skating in winter), and the National Arts Centre. U of Ottawa is no more than 10 minutes' walk as is the canal for those who like to walk/run/etc in bucolic settings. The rooms are all updated and the air conditioning quiet (a real bonus in my view). Gold member discounts are available and they have a 'go green' program where you can forego housekeeping for $5 voucher (which I spent at the Starbucks located on the property). Overall -- a great place.

Very Good
Quality/Price, I would choose another Hotel
No welcome when we arrived . Mostly no talking . Didn’t get my 10% voucher that was included when I did the booking. I actually remembered it in the morning and went to the lobby to ask for it .They said , « oh yes that’s true! »Valet parking was awful.at 35$, expectation is way higher .We also got robbed , still waiting for response.The pool is big but the jacuzzi is so small , you almost have to do a line up to go in.
