The family enjoyed our stay here. Good value and close to lots of food options. The only problem was the pool was out of service. We were able to access the pool at a different hotel, which was fine, but it was a bit of an inconvenience. Otherwise it was a good stay!

Very friendly and helpful staff ! My daughter loved her stay and so did i! The pool could use a little better maintenence when it comes to towel refills and making sure an aquatic instructor isnt teaching lessons in a pool we customer's paid for. He felt he had the right to give dirty looks to little kids and say remarks because the kids were swimmimg and jumping near his "lessons" On multiple days this happened and finally one man said something to the guy and the front desk.... and he left. Yet it still carried on the next day. Besides being close to my daughter's school, the pool was the main reason i rented here....she loves her swimming. She was in 2-3 times a day, for 5 days straight. CABLE tv... !!! Who still has that?!?!? Shower was hell and so was the lighting. But thats all fixable stuff. The staff went above and beyond multiple times and they were beyond respectful and kind to my little monkey Would definitely visit again 👍

Check-in was good. The front desk person was friendly and very helpful. Even though we were a little early for check in time, One of our 2 rooms was not quite ready yet, but got upgraded to a suite room; which was nice and appreciated. The TV remote batteries were dead and there was no shower curtain in the bathroom, but the guest service personnel came to our room and took care of it very quickly. The complimentary hot breakfast was good as expected for Holiday Inn and plenty of seats in the dining room and also outdoor seating available as well. There was plenty of parking spaces and hotel was clean and a nice stay overall. Will definitely keep this hotel on our list for our next trip to Ottawa.

I had to use my cell-phone as hot spot for my laptop. • Not a single USB charging port in the room. • The AC is loud and blowing right above one of the beds. • The TV image kept going on and off. One chanel had no sound. • Breakfast was of mediocre quality and cold. The ugly: • The carpets are full of stains - inside and outside the room.

No laundry or ice bag. Small tv. Broken remote. Couldn’t even watch the Blue Jays games as they only subscribe to 1 Sportsnet channel. Bacon was burnt every morning. Parking spaces are so tight. Good luck getting luggage out of a back door. I will not be back.

We got a room that was supposed to sleep 6 people and when we went to open the pull out on the couch to get ready for bed it was full of hair and what looked to be dry blood or something of that nature also the lamp shade was broken when we walked in the room it was dusty we are just very very disappointed!! We paid 300 dollars for 1 night and from what front desk told us was tbat they didnt have a house keeping crew so i would really like to speak to someone about how this could be made right i always choose holiday inn but as of now i am thinking when my family does go on vaction again we should consider other hotels

Once a large group of parents and teenagers arrived, I no longer had wifi. I will not use this facility and longer. When I asked about this, I was lied to. Do better.

He told us that canadians dont understand english

I originally started out disappointed with this hotel. We arrived for check in at the same time as another family and no one was at the front desk. I observed it unmanned several times over the weekend so I assume only one person works that desk at a time and must need to attend to other stuff. Our stay got better though. The room was clean and spacious. The thermostat worked and allowed us to turn up the heat when we needed to. The breakfast was pretty good. Many options and the breakfast staff kept everything well stocked. If we need to be in Ottawa for anything again, I would stay here again.

Great hotel, easy access from the highway, minutes to downtown. Plenty food options around includinf a Loblaws right across. The hotel was very clean, comfortable beds. The pool was spacious enough and the perfect temperature, clean and well stocked with fresh towels. Breakfast was included and had plenty of options to leave even the most picky satisfied, if you’re travelling with kids you know. Friendly staff and super clean comfy rooms. The only thing I would have loved to see was a smart tv to access Netflix or other programs, again more kid friendly. This isn’t a complaint, just a suggestion. Great hotel for short or longer stay.

I was quite disappointed with my recent stay. The hallway, elevator, and room were all dirty, which created a very uncomfortable first impression. The room lacked basic amenities—there was no water bottle, no slippers, and overall the essentials were missing. Even the breakfast options were very limited. I chose this hotel because it carries the Holiday Inn name, a brand I expected to be reliable and reputable. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet those standards. Based on this stay, I would hesitate to book with Holiday Inn again in the future.

Entire staff were pleasant and friendly. Plenty of self-parking. Great choice of hygiene amenities, Dove products. Hotel on a main road and easily accessible to the highway.
