Best Hotels near Carleton University

The Westin's Ottawa earns praise from recent guests who say its convenient downtown location makes it an ideal choice for those traveling on business and leisure. Guests can easily walk from the hotel to Ottawa's top attractions like the Rideau Canal and ByWard Market. The on-site amenities earn high marks, as well. The hotel's accommodations are spacious and modern, with 50-inch LCD TVs, Wi-Fi access (for a fee) and signature Westin Heavenly beds. While some past visitors describe the hotel furnishings as slightly dated, most say the excellent customer service makes up for this slight drawback. Travelers also note that the indoor pool serves as a nice place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. At mealtime, foodies can nosh on the breakfast and brunch options (on Sunday only) at Daly's Restaurant or seafood, steak and cocktails at The Shore Club Restaurant. And since Westin hotels fall under the Marriott family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.

Welcoming visitors since June 1912, the Fairmont Château Laurier was built to resemble a French Renaissance castle, with a copper roof dotted with limestone and granite spires. Recent visitors admire this Fairmont's stunning architecture, as well as its location in downtown Ottawa (right next to Parliament Hill). However, some guests say the hotel misses little details (such as making sure in-room coffee makers work) and lament the staff's poor customer service. Each of the Fairmont's guest rooms and suites comes appointed in creamy neutral tones and includes a Nespresso coffee maker, refreshment area and Wi-Fi access (for a fee). For those who prefer to dine in, the Fairmont houses the upscale Wilfrid's Restaurant, and La Terrasse, open seasonally, for a more casual, outdoor meal. For a late-night cocktail or afternoon tea, venture to Zoe's, which offers a refined atmosphere and excellent service that's well worth the splurge, according to recent visitors. And remember, members of the Le Club AccorHotels program can earn frequent flier miles for choosing to bed down here.

Nestled along Slater Street in downtown Ottawa, ARC The.Hotel exudes a modern feel with its contemporary lobby and neutral color palette.

Another plus is this boutique hotel's proximity to Ottawa's top sites; ByWard Market is about a mile north of the property. Guests who want to dine on-site can order room service or visit the ARC Lounge for locally sourced meat and seafood dishes like duck confit grilled cheese or scallops. Aside from the on-site dining, guests also appreciate the 24-hour fitness room.

Delta Hotels Ottawa City Centre sits in downtown Ottawa, Ontario, within walking distance of must-visit sights like the Canadian War Museum and Parliament Hill. Though the property's prime location is one of this Delta Hotels and Resorts outpost's best attributes, visitors also love its friendly staff and modern yet comfortable accommodations. Standard guest rooms boast gray carpets and accent walls, as well as city views, pillow-top mattresses, free Wi-Fi access and flat-screen TVs. However, some lodgers bemoan the hotel's slow elevators, and others caution that the walls are thin, so noise from outside seeps into the rooms. Beyond the rooms, guests have access to top-notch amenities like a fitness center and an indoor saltwater pool. A bar and a Canadian-inspired restaurant with a themed lunch buffet and a sommelier tasting table are also available. Plus, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn or redeem points by choosing to stay here.

Towering 29 stories above Kent Street in downtown Ottawa, this Marriott property affords its guests sweeping views of the city. Recent lodgers suggest booking a room on a higher floor facing the Ottawa River, which not only grants stunning views, but also less disruptive outside noise. Although not all boast city panoramas, the hotel's 489 guest rooms and suites come with minifridges, complimentary Wi-Fi access and 37-inch LCD TVs. When you're ready to satiate your appetite, grab a table at "Spin" Kitchen & Bar for creative takes on classic breakfast, lunch, dinner and bar snacks, though some diners say they would have liked to pay a little less for an on-site meal. Or, if you're craving a jolt of caffeine, stop by the on-site Starbucks. Families staying here appreciate the hotel's games room, which is stocked with video and tabletop games for younger guests to enjoy. But what travelers like most of all is the Ottawa Marriott Hotel's proximity to the city's top attractions. Plus, Marriott Bonvoy members can enjoy (and earn) free perks by choosing to bed down here.
