Breakfast was lovely and the staff were so kind. Absolutely loved meeting Julie, who took really good care of my kids. So warm and intuitive when it came to making sure that they were comfortable. I have two special needs kids and my older son gets very anxious when we travel - that is why we stick with Novotel. We know to expect a warm welcome and staff who go out of their way to make sure that guests feel at home. Special thanks to your front desk staff, too!

Walking distance to most amenities I needed like University of Ottawa, Rideau Centre and many others!

No breakfast is included but there are plenty of places nearby. The Le Moulin de Provence was a great counter place with a nice outdoor area. The location is in the tourist section of Ottawa, which is convenient if you are a tourist (as we were). The hotel is clean and modern and the staff at the front desk was helpful and friendly. You do have to pay for parking but you can access the hotel from the garage (it was $28 Canadian per day). The bar was very nice - some very different and frankly weird cocktails available, but normal drinks as well. It was an easy place to stay - no complaints.

We were so close to everything. We walked everywhere and staying at the hotel really helped my daughter feel more comfortable with the neighbourhoods around the university!

I have stayed here a few years ago and since the the rooms have been refurbished and are very nice and comfortable....staff are very friendly ... location is great... parking (separate charge) is convenient and attached to hotel ..... would definitely stay here again!

The Novotel breakfast was excellent and truly the best breakfast we encountered during our 14-day road trip. The varied choices and the option to have one's eggs cooked according to one's wishes was the icing on the cake. The dining room (and the interesting art on the walls) was both welcoming and comfortable.

No storage in the room. We were there for 5 nights and I would prefer to unpack suitcases and get them out of the way, but there is not a dresser of any kind so we had open suitcases to work around all week. We also had to ask for a small old coffee maker. I cannot have cafein and it was sometimes hard to get some decaf. Glad I had taken some herbal tea with me.
Loved the location - close to U Ottawa, By Ward market, shopping mall and parliament and museums. Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Nice to have a small fridge in the room too.
