    close to parks and great for city strolling

    We had a fantastic time exploring the city during our short stay, since the hotel is just a bit over 2 km from beautiful places like Lincoln-Douglas Park and the Ottawa Historical and Scouting Heritage Museum, making it so easy to enjoy leisurely walks to these landmarks together. As a couple, we appreciated the central location, which allowed us to discover so many nearby attractions that made our weekend delightful and memorable.

    Ah, the breakfast spread was a real gem! From fluffy scrambles to crispy bacon, they nailed it. Plus, I was thrilled by the clean and comfy digs—definitely a sweet spot for my getaway. The staff were super friendly, too, making the start of each day enjoyable!

    Now, about parking—it was a bit tight. If the hotel was super busy, finding a spot might've been a hassle. I also requested extra coffee pods a couple of times, but they just didn’t have any. Thankfully, we managed to snag some coffee from the urn and made it work. Gotta love that Ottawa resourcefulness!

    ideal spot for walking to parks and landmarks

    We stayed for one night in a Leisure King Room and loved how close we were to Fox River Park, just about 2.5 km away, making our stroll through the scenic trails an unforgettable experience. plus, the nearby Ottawa Historical and Scouting Heritage Museum, only a bit over 2 km from the hotel, was a delightful stop on our urban adventure.

    Welcoming staff and great breakfast options

    I had a wonderful stay with a very welcoming staff that made me feel at home. The breakfast stood out with tasty options like fresh cinnamon rolls and biscuits with gravy, ensuring a great start to my day. My room was clean and spacious, which added to the comfort of my visit. The only downside was the noise from the hallway that occasionally disrupted the peace in my room.

    Felt like a true getaway, no complaints.

    housekeeping services
    parking challenges

    I had a pretty decent time staying at Holiday Inn Express in Ottawa. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff at the front desk greeted me warmly. The room was clean and modern, with a comfy bed that made sleeping easy. The breakfast options were surprisingly good, with a nice variety of warm choices available. Loved starting my day with a hot meal. However, I faced some issues with the housekeeping services. My room didn't get cleaned properly during my stay, and I had to ask for coffee pods on multiple occasions as they were not replenished in the room. The parking situation was also a bit stressful, especially during busy hours. I was anxious about finding a spot each evening. It would’ve been nice to have more clarity about parking availability ahead of time. Overall, I appreciated the cleanliness and the breakfast, but the service aspects left something to be desired.

    Great spot with friendly vibes!

    We had such a nice stay! The staff was super welcoming, especially that one manager who was still upbeat at 11pm. Our room was clean and comfy, and breakfast was way better than I expected with fresh options. Just wish there were more parking spots available since it got kinda tight at times.
