I have stayed at this lovely "home away from home" hotel several times in the last few years. It was top rate before the revovations and now it is a definite WOW.....Affordable, Welcoming and close to everything in the downtown core of Ottawa! So good indeed that I have taken the time , which I rarely do, to write a... More

The Bostonian, where we recently spent a week, looks fabulous on uts web site. The floor we were put on was being redecorated the week we were there (painting, wallpapering, new carpets). This made the corridor rather messy. The room was nice with kitchen, separate sleeping room and sitting area. Breakfast is meagre: Toast, some days with jam, some days... More

Great place to unwind after your busy day of meetings and travel. I found the beds to be exceptionally comfortable, rooms clean and staff most helpfull, and the rates very reasonable. Great downtown location close to everything, including a grocery store around the corner to stock your fully equiped in-room kitchen( fully equiped even includes a dishwasher!) The room even... More

Stayed at the Bostonian for a week with my Dad and little brother, the room is kept very clean by housekeeping; the kitchen includes all of the necessities even useful and necessary appliances. The front desk staff is very helpful and courteous, and the stay even includes a daily continental breakfast, which is just simple, but helps if I need... More

Stayed at the Bostonian during a quick Ottawa visit; Feb 11-13. Took advantage of a sale on Hotels.com it was only about $111/ night, which is pretty cheap for downtown Ottawa during the Winterlude weekend. Positives: - Has an ensuite kitchen - Great location; right beside Bank street and close proximity to The Market - Very affordable for a good... More

In reading the other reviews, you can see the place isn't perfect. During my stay, the room definitely could have been tidier. However, that aside, I would stay again in a heartbeat. It was a short distance from everything (Downtown, Elgin, Bank, The Glebe, Chinatown etc) and was cozy and quiet, especially when compared to major chain hotels. I'd recommend... More

My mum and I stayed here for the weekend of the September 2011 Ottawa Army Run. I booked the hotel because it looked rather nice and I wanted to treat my mum for being so nice and tagging along to cheer me on. Unfortunately, it wasn't the treat I thought it would be. We walked into a room that was... More

stayed here for 3 nights in October on business in Ottawa...not sure why its rated as the best business hotel in Ottawa in the Frommer's guide???....trying to work on a laptop in these small dimly let rooms is depressing! The rooms are outdated, tired dark, and depressing with lots of brown carpet. THe bathroom is very small- i practically had... More

I went to a business trip back in April, and everything from Check in to Check out was bad; The day I checked in I was really tired because I had to take 3 connecting flights and had been traveling all day long, and when I get to the Hotel's front desk... Surprise no one was there! I looked for... More
