Hotels near Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa

The hotel is on the roadside, the door is relatively low-key, pay attention to the room, but not particularly spacious, after all, the location in the center of Ottawa is really good, travel is very convenient. Basically, the surrounding landmark attractions and buildings can be reached on foot.

So nice to have a hotel conveniently located to nearby points of interest. It's a busy area, though, so be careful when crossing streets! It's evident the hotel is aging but our accommodations were nice & one could see that updates to decor, shower, etc. were somewhat recent. The shower area was huge (perhaps they got rid of the bathtub & just extended the shower area???) Must use room key card to access the elevator to guest room floors. Appreciate the extra security! The staff was responsive when we asked for additional supplies. The breakfast area was very nice, with great views. But the buffet is quite pricey as are individual menu selections. Better to grab breakfast in one of the many options in the neighborhood. There is also a restaurant on-site, again, very pricey. With so many options nearby, why not experience the city? We found the area to be quite walkable & were able to take in quite a few sites in our brief visit. Our experience at the Westin was positive; we understand the minor inconveniences of escalator repairs, etc. are part of general maintenance and didn't let that influence this review.

Hi Carson & Mark, and staff: it's J and E, thanks for making our stay 5 stars! This hotel is perfectly located for a stay in Ottawa, being a short 800 metre stroll to the Parliament Buildings, War Memorial, National Arts Centre, Rideau Mall, and very close to the National Garllery of Art and Byward Market . We stayed in Room 2223 which afforded a breath taking view of the entire Ottawa Skyline - treat yourself to this Executive King Corner Room. Breakfast at Spin in the Hotel was very good, and priced fair. In/Out Parking on site is also fair and convenient. The hotel was built in 1972 but is well maintained and kept super clean. BIG shout out to MARK at the Front Desk who is absolutely so Personable and went above and beyond the call of duty for us. And of course...CARSON, what can I say, he is the Manager that all Managers should strive to be, very very accomodating! Thanks Ottawa Marriott...we'll be back soon!!!

The hotel name indicates that this hotel is located in the city center, with Capitol Hill and Chinatown within a 15-minute walk. It only takes 6 subway stops to reach Ottawa Train Station and only takes 15 minutes. Perhaps for environmental reasons, the hotel does not actively provide toothbrushes, toothpaste, slippers, and bathrobes. Please note.

Stayed at the Novotel for a week in early Feb 2023 while attending a conference at the nearby Westin. I booked for a really low rate through hotwire. After a pleasant check in I was excited to come into a very large on the 8th floor with a separate seating area and a very large TV. Room was pretty clean although when packing up before check-in I found some items under the bed that did not belong to me. Location was perfect, right across from the Rideau Centre and the Westin/Conference Centre and within a short walk to the Parliament Buildings, Sparks Street and Byward Market. My only compliant is the walls must be paper thin as I could hear the ding of the elevator and conversations in the hall from my room. I was also there a four hour during a power outage in the evening. I assume the outage was unscheduled but there was a lot of confusion and no one at the front desk when it occurred. The hotel shares a building with a DND office which made it confusing leaving the building by the stairs as the stairway lead to a entrance that read ”DND property alarm will sound”, it took awhile to figure out how to exit by the stairs.

The living room and kitchen are large, with kitchenware and tableware, which is very convenient if you want to cook. There are two Chinese lunch boxes at the Redeau Shopping Center's dining hall food court next to it, suitable for Chinese stomachs. The view outside the window is also good. It takes more than half an hour to walk to the Governor's Mansion, a quarter of an hour to Capitol Hill, not far from various attractions, and there is a loblaws supermarket next to it for 5 minutes. The only downside is that the road is too big at night, a bit noisy

This is Ottawa's oldest top luxury hotel, located at the entrance of the Rideau Canal, with an excellent location. Living here, whether you are going to Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal, Byward Market, or the National Gallery, it is only a five to ten minute walk away. Staying at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier Hotel is like walking into the castle where princes and princesses live in fairy tales. Thick carpets are spread under the feet, luxurious chandeliers, European columns and round arches, and the long corridors are brightly lit... You can feel the retro era and aristocratic atmosphere everywhere.

Our flight landed in Ottawa well after the rental car companies at the airport shut down for the day. We decided to stay at a hotel close to the airport so we can go get our car the next morning. This hotel is really nice, spacious and clean! The front desk reps were all very upbeat and friendly. Our room was huge! We had 2 queen beds and there was a sitting area with a second tv and a full size sofa. The decor is a very clean, modern feel. The bathroom had a big glass shower with a bathtub/shower beside it. Tons of counter space in the sink area for all our toiletry bags and very well lit. Breakfast was a help yourself deal with hot and cold options. I wish I had booked this hotel for our entire stay instead of just one night, but being beside the airport was just too far away from all the touristy things in our capital city. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Great hotel; rooms were clean and reasonably spacious, and the amenities were very nice. Hotel gym was small but well-appointed. Restaurant is large and had a great view; food was adequate, nothing special, and pretty expensive for what it was.

The stay was nice, as always. The hotel is very well kept and the aroma as you enter the front lobby from the outside is breathtaking. It is a very pleasant smell and right away you are made to feel welcome and ”right at home.”
