What guests think

At Courtyard by Marriott Ottawa Downtown, travellers highlight a central ByWard Market location, friendly service, and generally comfortable, clean rooms, while recurring drawbacks include paid and limited parking and occasional maintenance or amenity issues.

Many reviews praise the easy walk to Parliament, Rideau Centre and numerous dining spots. Light sleepers report sound from nearby bars and hallways, and some note loud in-room A/C. Families mention enjoying the pool when available, but some encountered closures or overly chlorinated water. Expect a lively downtown stay with convenience and some urban trade-offs.

We were not notified prior to check-in that the hotel was undergoing renovations which had closed their pool and gym facilities. We are travelling with children so this was extremely disappointing. A simple email to make us aware would have been appreciated. We would have booked elsewhere.

Pros: Great hotel, very clean, bed and bedding are comfortable, good location, staff at the cafe/bar were very friendly, pool and gym are convenient, rooms are soundproof except for the outside noise Cons: Parking is not included 40$/night, our room was on level 2 directly on the street and could hear everything at night, a lot of homeless people in the area

Disappointed that had to pay for EV charging in addition to daily parking fee. At hotels we’ve stayed at in the past, the daily fee includes EV charging. This was not communicated at check in when I inquired about chargers so when we got to the spot, had to quickly load the app and add funds before we could use it.

Great location right in the centre of the Byward market Area, with lots of great restaurants and opportunities to explore. Very close walking distance to Parliament as well as other great local attractions and museums. Excellent pool and fitness Center as well for us to use

This hotel is located right in the heart of the Ottawa Byward Market area. The staff and service is great, but the showers are a little dirty (ours had a previous guests hair still stuck to the wall and the pool deck area is covered in mildew. One important thing to know about this property is that PARKING IS NOT INCLUDED when you book through Expedia. Depending on the time of year there will not be spaces available and if there is, it’s about $37.00 a night for parking. The place is surrounded by vagrant drug users, so you’re going to need secure parking, or else don’t leave anything in your vehicle.

The room was decent and bed and pillows comfy. The in-room fridge was making an awful noise so I figured out how to turn it off. Also, I didn’t realize the room faced York Street, which was loud outside until 10.30 pm. I would have preferred and interior room. I had some trouble with the WiFi and card key but the staff was kind and helpful. Finally, hotel rooms are expensive! It’s hard to believe that from check-in at 7pm until departure the next morning that a sleep & shower is $300. I will be looking for more affordable options next time.

Upon our arrival we weren’t helped with our luggage and check in was abrupt. The lack of help was evident when I asked about Starbucks they told me they had one inside the hotel NOT What they had was a machine that made coffee when I asked for an actual Starbucks no one would help me.meanwhile there was a couple of Starbucks close with in meters of the hotel. Wasn’t informed of the underground parking.The remote for the TV didn’t work had to unplug the TV TO TURN IT OFF.All in all would never book again. Was very disappointed. We stayed at the Marriott on Kent Street it was amazing 4 stars easy
