Last July I had a days work to do in Ottawa. Since the TV had just about continuous ads about visiting Ottawa where you stayed 2 nights and got the 3rd half price I figured I'd go do the work, see how the place was, then maybe stay a couple of other days. The room was quite clean and nice.... more

This hotel was an abject disaster. I booked for a staff of four and the billing was a nightmare. The location is OK, but this hotel is in a residential neighbourhood and looks like it used to be an apartment building. The hotel is way to expensive for what it actually is - no restaurant, no pool, very outdated rooms... more

Yes we spent 4 nights at this hotel ,first we asked for a smoking room which I assume was smoking ,for there was not a single ashtray in the room. when we asked for an ashtray at the desk ,we were turtly told that " maybe able to find you one",that was the first night,we never did see an ashtray.... more

Smoking room -they said it was the only one left, you cannot reserve a non-smoking room when you do your reservation (I wonder if that is legal). Blankets with wholes. Mattress so old that feels like jello. Carpet, what to tell you, dirty and in ruins. This was the worst hotel I have stayed in my life -and I did... more

Hotel was OK, but a bit frustrating for internet on the first floor. The connection kept dropping. I was told it was because the hotel was full and there was too much traffic. But it did not improve in the morning. Front desk made no effort to do anything about this problem so it made me think that it was... more

As a member of a women's group, we chose the Bostonian for our business meeting, as it appeared to comfortably accomodate our group. This is NOT a boutique hotel, nor did the rooms match those on the video tour. It reminded us all of a standard franchise hotel. There were many small damages in the suite, and filthy curtains. Our... more

I stayed at the Bostonian for 1 month (Sept 2009) Befoe I start I will tell you that I currently live in Ottawa and due to the unfortunate circumstances of a fire I ended up at the Bostonian until I could move back home. Now for my review: Check in was quick and easy. We were given a room on... more

I stayed there for one night which proved to be a disaster. We found out that we were assigned to a room with one DOULE BED although we booked for two people. Apparently the hotel believes that TWO adults can sleep in a double bed which is probably the only place in North America which claims this. At least one... more

The rooms and lobby were clean and impeccably maintained and the hotel staff friendly and helpful. The best part was the kitchen in my suite, which had the essentials for cooking and adequate refrigerator and storage space to be able to enjoy food preparation and eating in the room. I was even able to have my son and his family... more
