Comfort Inn Ottawa East
Plenty of parking. The room was clean as was the bathroom, though it was small. The mattress was extremely comfortable and I loved the pillows. This location is close to the highway; it made leaving early easy. Perfect for an overnight stay.

Lord Elgin Hotel
A lovely classic old hotel, albeit one in the midst of significant renovation. That said, surprisingly good value in an expensive hotel city and very well located for anything you might need in Byward Market, University of Ottawa and downtown/Centretown.

Unfortunately there was no heat in the dining room. Needed a blanket to sit through dinner.
