The hotel’s location is excellent. Valet service was good. Pet friendly. Concierge and reception staff were welcoming. However it appears that one has to take luggage up to the room oneself. Rooms were clean. Only major issue was the towels. Raggedy—torn with holes in them.

Amazing location and superior hotel!

Amazing location, steps to the canal, we have been visiting Ottawa for annual skating for over 15 years, staying in downtown, first time to this hotel and it was by far the best place!!!! Path though to the mall, great hotel amenities, pool, hot tub, sauna. The breakfast was amazing (pics are attached) and the view from the room showed the canal. Highly recommend, nothing beats this place!

Direct access to Rideau Centre from hotel was great during cold February stay allowed family to enjoy shopping mall coat free directly from hotel. Breakfast Buffet was great too, good quality lots of choice’s. Proximity to the frozen canal skating and affordable skate rentals from hotel were great convenience.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
While I am a Marriott Bonvoy member and have had several pleasant stays at the Westin Ottawa over the years, we were very disappointed in our stay in January 2025, especially after having paid over $400 for the room. These were the issues: - Shower did not drain - about 2 inches of water remained after shower - Bed sheets were not tucked in and would uncomfortably bunch up - Only 2 coffee creamers (we did get more when we asked) - No plug-ins at bedside tables (plug was behind headboard) - 3 plug-ins on the desk are loose and a fire hazard! - TV reception was poor and blacking out - Toilet paper holder location is very awkwardly behind/beside the toilet - Only one robe and one set of slippers in closet - Pillows were very soft and uncomfortable with no other options provided - No Kleenex refill box - blue sheets were already showing when we arrived - it had been my understanding that I had booked a room with a view of the canal/Parliament where I have been several times before when booking a premium room, but we were on the other side of the hotel, and were advised we would have to pay even more money to upgrade to such a room.
