Would definitely go back to this hotel. Great location and value.

Location for walking to the market area, restaurants, and parliament buildings was excellent. The hotel is old but very well maintained and updated where appropriate. Staff was very helpful - we realized we didn't have a bottle opener - none available in the gift shop - front desk directed us to the bar - the bar had no extras but... More

This hotel is close to parliament hill and the vat of eels that we call our politicians. So if you are doing any lobbying, or just planning on heckling John Baird it is a great spot!

My stay at the Lord Elgin for business was very good. The hotel is located near the historic area and also walking distance to shopping and restaurants. The rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel offers free WiFi in the lobby (but not the rooms) and has a business center. I found the staff very helpful whether it was a... More

I had a very comfortable stay here. The location is great. I loved the morning stroll at the park right across the hotel, takes only few minutes to the canal.

I loved this hotel. Historic building with modern upgrades...everything was very clean, spacious and the staff was great. There's also valet parking for an extra charge which is very convenient and the location is nice. Can't ask for anything else!

All main tourist attractions and start points of city tours are within walking distance. Valet parking has reasonable prices. Our room was bigger than I expected and of course was very clean. Our stay at this hotel was... More

Nice hotel but very loud, mostly due to housekeeping staff. They need to use door stops while they're cleaning rooms because they're constantly slamming doors. We traveled with small children who were woken up several times. The "do not disturb" sign was on the door but they still called the room to make sure we didn't need towels, etc. They... More

Location is aces, room was bigger and better than I expected, a comfortable bed indeed, everything “worked” and housekeeping staff put a smile on my face. We were in and out with our car several times, the fellows on the valet desk were really pleasing. We dined, the kitchen is top drawer. Seafood chowder and bread pudding are to write... More
