Von außen schönes Hotel, leider würde ich dort nicht mehr übernachten.
Pros:

Personal ist sehr freundlich und die Lobby bzw. Restaurant ansprechend.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind alt und verwohnt. Einzig das Bett war bequem. Wir hatten eine Junior Suite und die war leider nicht ihr Geld wert.

Overall good stay.
Pros:

The staff, from Valet to doorman to reception. The room is good size, some furniture showed the age ( bedside table, the chair ). Angelina at the bar was exceptional, made good drinks and knows Ottawa well. I want to mention the valet and doorman again for their great work. We had good breakfast at Zoe's.

Cons:

Pricey. Check in at 4 pm !!! I checked the room rate while waiting for the room and showed significantly lower rate. The hotel may have unoccupied rooms and yet we could not get an early check in.
