Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location within walking distance, 1km or less to pedestrian entertainment area. Nothing on a Thursday nite but live music on weekends. Walking distance to cross over bridge to Ottawa side and the Mill Street Brewing company restaurant and bar , excellent patio. Rooms a little dated . No usb plugs, bathroom needed paint repairs but very good value for the price online at 157 and only 14 for parking. Comfortable beds and pillows, Staff was great."
