What guests think

At Les Suites Hotel Ottawa, travellers highlight very spacious, apartment‑style suites with kitchens and laundry, a central location by ByWard Market and Rideau Centre, and generally friendly staff, while recurring drawbacks include street and nightlife noise.

Many guests praise the size and convenience of modern renovated suites, but others report worn carpets, stale smoke or musty odors, and inconsistent housekeeping in classic units. Parking is often tight, paid, or confusing, elevators can be slow or briefly out of service, and the immediate area feels gritty with visible homelessness. Expect roomy suites and walkable convenience, with potential trade‑offs in noise and building age.

Staff seems nice and helpful. Elevator is a big issue, it was easier to walk to the floor to access parking than waiting for the elevator, especially check out time. Parking space is limited and very tight.

They advertise a hot tub on their website and the hot tub is now closed. One of the reasons I booked this hotel was for the hot tub. I had stayed there on two prior occasions and the hot tub was opened. When I got to the pool area the hot tub was no longer in use. The parking is horrible and traffic noise horrendous. Would not stay here again!

We booked a modern 2-bedroom and it was HUGE! Basically a two-bedroom apartment with good sized rooms, in-suite laundry and a walk-through closet and en suite for the ‘kids’ room, which had two queen beds. Tons of space, nicely updated. Large kitchen area and a separate living room area with a tv, and a second tv in kids room so they could watch their own show. Pool was decent and a nice courtyard as well.

The room was nice and clean. The shower could use an update. The main update that needs to be done is the pool. One the deck is very old and the pool is small. One of the elevators broke down and check out was frustrating.

The accommodations were clean and spacious. We had arrived really late and were able to check in without issue. I was told parking was going to be extra which they billed my card for at that moment and they informed me that they didn't have any parking passes which was fine so they buzzed me in. The gentleman said I would be able to get a parking pass the next day. Next day rolls around and I ask for a parking pass. I explained that they didn't have any parking passes when I checked in and that they buzzed me in. The lady who I spoke to said they should have only billed me if they had a parking pass to give. Well, that wasn't the case and here we are. She was very hesitant to provide the parking pass which she finally did but it didn't work when parking the car. I had to be buzzed in and when leaving it didn't work either. Again I had to be buzzed out. Upon coming back from an event the pass still didn't work. The gentleman I spoke to said she had activated the parking pass for the day we leave which he fixed but the damage had been done already. I suggest working on your SOP's when something like this happens. Very frustrating as one persons action could totally ruin your stay. Would I stay there again. No.

Zero communication about the 30 dollar a day parking until arrival. Great spot wonderful staff! just feels a little underhanded the way an option/necessity like parking is omitted for price/value marketing strategies. All in all a great place, and I’m ok to pay for it, but transparency is important.

Second time staying here. Excellent front desk staff. EVERYONE of them. Large suites with completely outfitted kitchen. Great pool that opens early. Bus to Montreal is just around the corner. Easy walk to restaurants/pubs. Good internet. Tv in bedroom and living room. We enjoy the deck. Bed is hard. The chocolates and coffee/creamers a very nice touch. Room cleaned daily. Excellent stay!

The convenience of being close to the Rideau Centre and the Byward Market was great. Staff are kind and welcoming. The room had a strange damp cloth smell. We found an item left behind by a previous guest which suggested that there was little cleaning done. The floor was dirty as well.

The carpet in the first room was soaking wet and made the room smell really bad. We couldn’t sleep it smelt so bad. They did bring a fan, but because the hotel was full couldn’t move us. The second night we were moved and the room was fantastic.

Rooms

Suites are very spacious apartment‑style units with full kitchens (many with laundry), and the renovated Modern rooms earn strong praise. Classic suites can feel dated with thin windows and street/club noise; some report AC or Wi‑Fi issues and uncomfortable sofa beds.

There is an “alt rock” night club across the street which is insanely loud several nights a week. It made it incredibly hard to sleep several nights while we were there. I know not really the hotels fault but I’d wouldn’t stay there again because of it. We also had one of the traditional rooms which was clean but long overdue for a renovation.

The Les Suites gives you the option of the renovated and non-renovated rooms. This time, I stayed in the non-renovated room and I wouldn't do it again. For the price difference, it's not worth it. While it's clean, it's shabby and the carpets probably have 30+ years of dust embedded in them. The only plus is that they appear to be on a lower floor and, ironically, there was less traffic noise than on a higher floor in the building. If you're sensitive to noise, ask them to place you on the courtyard side.

Very friendly staff, however there needs to be some maintenance work done on the property. 2 of the 3 elevators were out of service during the stay, making wait times unpredictable. The internet was also sporadic and not reliable for business calls. The room was clean and the kitchen well stocked with everything needed to prepare small meals.

Stayed here as a group of five for a quick stop in Ottawa. While the hotel is fairly well-located, I was very disappointed by the customer experience. Upon checking in, we were offered the opportunity to upgrade our room to a renovated suite for an additional but discounted fee. We declined the offer but upon reaching our room we noticed that the number of washrooms did not match what we had selected from Expedia. Only when we asked the front desk about the discrepancy, did they want to be "fully transparent" about the room configuration and that they only have a limited number of suites with two bathrooms and there were none left available for our stay. However, we could still upgrade for a fee to get a suite with two bathrooms. One bathroom to 5 adults was not what we had signed up for. We had to call the front desk to ensure there were enough sets of towels for everyone while the suite is said to sleep 6. All in all, we walked away feeling deceived and that another hotel might have cared more about our stay.

I stayed at Les-Suites Hotel in downtown Ottawa for three nights, and my experience was extremely disappointing. Upon arrival, I was assigned a lower floor room. When I asked to move to a higher floor, the staff demanded an extra CAD 100 per night, even though no such charges or floor preferences were mentioned at the time of booking. Charging unexpected fees at check-in without prior disclosure is unethical. Worse, when I requested the bill to be split into two receipts — two nights for business and one night for personal use — a standard requirement for many corporate travelers, the hotel refused to assist. Shockingly, the manager himself was rude and dismissive, telling me I "should stay at a different hotel next time" rather than helping solve the issue. This level of unprofessionalism, especially coming from hotel management, is unacceptable. While the location is convenient, the service experience was the worst I have encountered, and I strongly advise business and leisure travelers to choose other accommodations where guests are treated with respect.

We were checked in quickly even though we were a bit early for check in time. Parking was easy. We were upgrade to a modern suite which was spacious and clean. It had great amenities. All hotel staff we interacted with during our stay were wonderful. The hotel felt very safe and was very close to Byward Market, Rideau Centre, Parliament Buildings and many restaurants. We have stayed at this hotel a few times in the past and will definitely stay again.

Beautiful hotel. Room was very clean and spacious! Although the location was very central and accessible to the downtown area, the neighbourhood was a bit run down, with several unhoused youths on the streets and it was incredibly noisy at night with loud cars, construction and several emergency vehicles, which made it difficult to sleep. But the actual room accommodation and the staff were excellent.
