Top Rideau Canal Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Parking was a bit of a kerfuffle at 1st but the lady at the front desk was kind enough to give us a detailed explanation of the parking as well as the elevator system. It didn't take long for us to figure out our way around the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. The shower was really spacious, great water pressure and the notches in the tub help to prevent slipping. The separation of the washroom from the main room was very nice as it kept the humidity from showering out of the bedroom. The staff were all very welcoming, accommodating and friendly."

Le Parc Gatineau, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"It was clean and convenient. The staff were helpful and did everything right. They just need some training on greeting customers and keeping eye contact. Overall, a very good experience."

Metcalfe Hotel Ottawa by Gray Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay near the main area of Ottawa, you can literally walk to all the famous spots around and the in house cafe serves amazing coffee and other food items."

The Ora Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are exceptionally clean and well equipped. Staff are very friendly and helpful."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Downtown Ottawa East by IHG

8/10 Good

"Nicely kept hotel. Not the best location but convenient close to downtown."

Fairmont Chateau Laurier

8/10 Good

"I was surprised to learn during our stay that this hotel was THE place to stay in back when traveling by train was the norm, with it sitting right next to Ottawa's main railway station. The informative signs detailing the many famous figures and dignitaries that have visited the chateau over the years was very intriguing to me. I could certainly see why it has earned such a reputation as the room itself was spacious, well-decorated, and comfortable. Furthermore, the money spent on having a view over Parliament Hill was well worth it, as it made for excellent sights both day and night when we were relaxing there. Although we lamented the lack of a microwave it was hard to find fault with the grandeur of the room itself. I would say that the main things that offset our wonder during this stay were the lack of on-site parking (I don't like trusting my vehicle to a valet, but that's just me), the hecticness of traffic in the surrounding area (which is admittedly a given in a capital city), and the lack of adequate staff members in some areas of the hotel. The latter was mainly seen by us during breakfast, where there were too few people available to serve the sheer volume of guests, some of whom were rather demanding as a result. My wife and I felt rather sorry for the staff who were clearly trying their best, so my hope is that others have brought this up and that it will eventually be addressed."

DoubleTree by Hilton Ottawa Downtown

8/10 Good

"Travelled with our dog, so very good of the property to allow pets! Unfortunately, our room was not ready at check-in time so they moved us to another room which was much smaller than what we had been expecting based on our last stay. Good of them to let us check in, but as a result we may not have been reassigned the correct room. In the end all was good - as I say, very good to have a reliable hotel downtown that allows pets! :)"
