Top ByWard Market Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Downtown Ottawa

8/10 Good

"I had 2 rooms. 1 room was great the second one was not cleaned, the bedsheets and towels were either not changed from the previous tenant or just not washed. There were used false eye lashes found in the bed and on the towels. My 2 adult male men were not amused and did not expect this from A Marriott hotel."

DoubleTree by Hilton Ottawa Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Parking $33/night, valid until 6pm day of checkout and managed by a third party. Third floor underground has an elevator to hotel. You do not need a room key to go from parking garage to hotel lobby. Bathroom is pretty nice. Beds were comfortable. I brought my father along, who loved the hotel. If there’s an outdoor event going on, you can hear it on the ninth floor, but it didn’t go into the night so it wasn’t an issue. Coffee was Nespresso; there was no complementary coffee, tea or water in the lobby. If Nespresso isn’t your favourite, there’s a cafe in the neighbouring hotel or a block or so to fast food coffee shops. Room key didn’t work at first, so I couldn’t get to the hotel room. Staff at front desk were able to help. You can pull in right at the front door of the hotel and check in before going to the parking garage/elsewhere."

ANDAZ OTTAWA BYWARD MARKET, BY HYATT

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient location in downtown Ottawa, close to great restaurants, museums, Parliament, and the station. The two-bedroom room was spacious, comfortable, and modern. The area can be busy, and while earplugs were provided, we didn't notice much noise anyway. We didn't sample the breakfast and barely interacted with staff, but it's overall great value for money."
