Top Ottawa Hotel Reviews

Rideau Residence University of Ottawa

10/10 Excellent

"good location"

The Business Inn

8/10 Good

"One complaint that I have is that the air conditioning unit in the bedroom was very noisy. It was noisy enough to affect my sleeping and we were there for three nights. In the “living room”, it was hard to get an acceptable “temperature”. Otherwise, the whole room was clean and well “equipped”. Every morning, the breakfast was good but there was no cheese in the “sandwich” despite the fact that it was supposed to have some. We parked the car in the basement and there could have been more “information” to know the location of the “good” elevator to access the higher levels."
