No complaints about the hotel, however there is a shelter and outreach centre across the road and unfortunately it devalues the hotel and the area. The centre is trying to provide assistance to a population very much in need of help, however anyone travelling on their own may not feel safe.

What you would expect from a holiday in, the room was surprisingly large and very comfy! However the area was not great, while you could walk to many of the key areas it is unfortunately down the street from a homeless charity, resulting in there being a lot of homeless around the hotel - a large majority of them going up to pedestrian and even drivers

Nice newer (or newly renovated) place with comfortable beds, a nice breakfast with plenty of choice and friendly attentive staff. It is situated downtown within easy walking distance of Byward market, Rideau shopping centre, and the parliament buildings. The pool was very small, but looked much larger in photos on the hotel website. However, it was nice and warm, with plenty of towels poolside. The fitness room was large and had a good variety of equipment. The biggest downside was the area around the hotel. We did not feel safe walking in the neighborhood, especially at night. Homeless people, tents, tons of garbage in the streets—Murray street was the worst—avoid if you can. I would not stay at this hotel if I was travelling alone. Parking is not included with your stay. Very limited parking is available at $18 per night, and if you arrive after noontime, you will have to park at one of two off-site public lots located a few blocks away (you must walk through a sketchy area to get there—-avoid doing this after dark if you can). If I do this in future, I will choose a hotel a little further away from downtown, where parking is included and on-site, and drive in to downtown to shop (I would park at the Rideau Centre).

Huge room and clean. Good breakfast. Not enough onsite parking so had to park 7 minutes away which doesn’t bother me, but wouldn’t feel safe walking back if I was a vulnerable person.

We had booked a standard room for my husband and 21 year old daughter to stay. They put us in a King room so my daughter went elsewhere to stay the first night! Super disappointed

King Edward is probably the worst street in Ottawa. Lots of homeless people and drug addicts. The hotel is great and safe but you don’t want to walk out there at night.

The hotel it self is great. Amenities were great, the breakfast was hood with decent variety. The room was exceptionally clean and spacious. Security wascgreat as well. Although there is paid parking at a reasonable dailyvrste, space is limited and i heard many people checking in did not get parking on site. The only major critique is the area around the hotel. People should be aware that it us located across the street from a shelter for the unhoused and we did witnesd drug use. I wouldn't have felt safe walking from the city centre at night but Uber is a good, fairly cheap option. Just something to keep in mind. This would'nt deter us ftom staying here in the future.
