Courtyard Ottawa East

Was on a business trip to Ottawa and family tagged along.
We stayed on 13^th floor overlooking the baseball field below and view was fantastic! The room size is generous and was clean. The beds comfortable, but pillows — NOT. Too soft.
The bathroom had a shower and a bath tub and was of fair size and clean. The maids were friendly and helpful.
The underground parking is not at par. The lanes are bit tight and the exit (and entry) is quite steep. When you exit the underground you almost blind of the traffic on the parking road. Very weird.
The Wi-​Fi very strong no matter what tim of the day and where you are. Would definitely come back, if in Ottawa
The pool and gym on the 15^th floor is good. Family used it twice and were happy

This is my second stay at this hotel. The rooms are very nicely appointed and large. The front desk staff is also very nice but the staff that move about the building seem to be in the way a bit. On more than one occasion someone jumped into the elevator as the doors were closing. I did not expect it to be a staff member!
Biggest downside for me is that the hotel restaurant isn’t up to par with the rooms. I like to eat at the hotel when I arrive for a business trip so that I can easily get a meal and some rest before the next day. The restaurant layout is open and casual and the menu reflects that casual atmosphere but the quality of the food is lacking in my opinion. I’ve had the Ciabatta sandwich and the French Dip now and neither were that great. The bread was tough, the meats were decent for flavor, and the selection of sides was weak. I ordered fruit for a dinner side and was brought a banana. What?
One star deducted for the restaurant, one for the «in the way» staff. If you’re looking for a nice room and won’t be eating at the hotel, this is a good choice.

THis hotel just opened 6 months ago and the designers knew what they were doing!
my friend came to visit from BC and is staying at this hotel and i have never seen a room designed as well as this!
huge room. 2 sinks (in bathroom and out). microwave. Lots of space. everything is where it should be.
Nice lobby, gym, breakfast buffet is great.
i highly recommend.
the only issue is that it is a little outside of the downtown core.
