Great!
Tucked away at a quieter part of the Byward Market. I had a decent sleep there after a late night out in the market. Rooms seemed renovated. I found it clean and comfortable. The included continental breakfast was very decent actually.

Gem of a little hotel
We were passing through Ottawa and wanted to stop to visit our son for a couple nights. We booked last minute not sure what Byward Blue would be like. It was great. Excellent location. European style rooms and a great breakfast. The coffee was very good as well!
