Top Centretown Hotel Reviews

Metcalfe Hotel Ottawa by Gray Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay, would book again!"

Delta Hotels by Marriott Ottawa City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was located on perfect walking distance of all the attractions. The room was spacious and clean, the front desk was very attentive and friendly, we tried the club lounge for the first time it was fantastic. Thank you Delta for a wonderful stay."

Sheraton Ottawa Hotel

8/10 Good

"Séjour d'une nuit passé en famille. Le personnel était sympathique, bien qu'un peu strict sur l'heure du check-in. On nous a demandé d'attendre 15-20 minutes au comptoir pour qu'il soit 15h précises ou de revenir. Sinon, les chambres sont très bien, spacieuses, comfortables et en bonne condition (le bain et la toilette sont un peu démodés, mais ça va quand même). Par contre, les fenêtres sont minces et mal insonorisées. On entendait les autobus passer constamment. On restait seulement une nuit, alors c'est allé, sinon il aurait fallu trouver une autre solution. Aussi, le déjeuner n'est pas un buffet tel qu'il était indiqué lors de la réservation (je ne me souviens plus si la mauvaise information venait du site de l'hôtel ou d'Expedia, mais il faudrait la corriger). Enfin, nous avions écrit à l'avance pour demander de confirmer qu'il y avait un stationnement avec borne de recharge alors que c'était un critère important, mais personne nous a répondu, et il n'y avait évidemment pas de borne, seulement un stationnement à 40$/nuit. Heureusement, juste à côté, il y avait des stationnements intérieurs à 10$/nuit (la fin de semaine), avec recharges gratuites en plus. De manière générale, l'hôtel était bien (sauf pour le bruit qui est vraiment problématique, du moins sur la rue avant, du 4e étage), le personnel aussi, mais je crois quand même que le prix est élevé pour ce qu'on a (à la fois pour la chambre et particulièrement pour le stationnement). Merci pour le séjour!"

Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay. Daily maid service was appreciated. Bed super comfortable. Amenities ( microwave / mini fridge ) made the stay comfortable. Staff were super helpful. Great location .. close to OLT . Would have liked a clock radio and a room upgrade as this was my second stay. Will recommend to anyone who needs a comfortable stay close to downtown."
