I am writing this review from the Residence Inn in downtown Ottawa in the middle of a ten-day business trip to the area. The location is very convenient and within easy walking distance to the major tourist attractions; Parliament Hill, Byward Market, Bank Street promenade, and is near major bus routes for other parts of the city. The hotel offers... more

We recently stayed at the Ottawa Residence Inn downtown during the Tulip Festival. The location was pretty good; and the 1-bedroom suite was clean, comfortable, and very spacious. The room was somewhat dated, but the hotel was a very nice value. At less than half the price of the nearby Westin (for a one-bedroom), we had more space, a full... more

I stayed at this hotel for one night with 4 other young ladies all of us in our early twenties. Thank God it was only one night! We stayed here because it was a bit cheaper (We were 5 people and wanted to be in one room if it was possible), the pool was open till 10pm, free breakfast and... more

My husband and I spent a three day weekend in Ottawa, as we were looking for a summer get-away. We booked the Residence Inn, as we had some Marriott points to use, and found availability there. The hotel itself is adequate, but a little older and in need of some renovation. Our room was comfortable and quiet, which is basically... more

I recently traveled to Ottawa for business and absolutely loved staying at the Residence Inn Marriott on Laurier Ave. This hotel caters to the needs of business travelers. I stayed in a one-bedroom suite that had a washer and dryer (not coin operated) and a full kitchen. There was abundant space in the suite, and it's worth mentioning that the... more

We have stayed at all three Marriott hotels in Ottawa and this one worked out best for our family of 5. The rooms are huge, very spacious, just what you would expect of the Residence Inn chain. Breakfast was one of the best out of all the Residence Inns we have stayed in (Canada and US), had scrambled eggs, sausage,... more

Stayed at this Residence Inn based on our previous experience with the Marriott chain and the expected standard of the hotel chain. This may have been the worst of the Marriott hotels we have stayed at with the Marriott chain. The room was dated. The carpet felt sticky if you walked on it with your bare foot. The bottom of... more

Disappointing Hotel, We booked the Marriott it based on favorable reviews on tripadvisor, but it was not a good stay. Upon check in, we were told we were being upgraded to a two bedroom suite with Jacuzzi. It ended up being a one-bedroom with a pull out couch in the TV room, and the Jacuzzi was a suspect looking tub-shower... more

This hotel should not be included in the Residence Inn Marriott family. It does not compare to other Residence Inn properties. The rooms are very dated, bathroom is right out of the early 1980s with recent repairs done incorrectly (the tub moved/shifted very time one showered). The kitchenette belongs in the 1980s as well with dated, worn-out appliances and cabinetry.... more

Residence Inn Ottawa Downtown is conveniently located within walking distance from the Parliament Building. The reception area is situated on the fourth floor of the hotel which is a bit confusing for new travelers to the hotel. There is a small driveway to park two cars while registering in. The staff members are pleasant and any concerns are handled immediately.... more
