I love this hotel! This was my most favourite stay ever. The…read moregrounds, lobby and rooms are gorgeous. The staff is the best I've encountered anywhere. When I arrived, I was so tired from a long day of driving and the front desk, I believe manager, was so nice to me in my exhausted, incoherent state. He gave me a room on the 4th floor, stating the rooms are nicer there. The room was HUGE and beautiful. Comfy bed and large bathroom, sitting area, closet with iron and fridge and safe. The satellite tv could be a little finicky, but that was the worst of it, which wasn't bad at all. There was a nice desk, as part of my trip was working. I had two beds in my room and could grab all the pillows off, which I love. Pillows were very comfy and of great quality. There is an elevator, very fast and in perfect working condition. Hallways and lobby are lovely and upscale. Everything kept in perfect repair. Large parking lot, although there seems to be competition for spots and lot was always full. I did park on the golf side once, but guessing that was allowed. Carts are nice too. Wheels work great and don't get stuck or go in weird directions. Pull up to the front lobby though, I made the mistake of trying to bring stuff in from the parking lot and that is much harder, doh! The spa is such a plus. It is right on the floor below the lobby. You will get a discount and get to use the spa all day and night at a discount when staying in the hotel. I've never been to a spa like this before. There are pools of many different warm/hot temperatures and a cold plunge so you get that hot and cold therapy. There is a large indoor pool with spa bubbles and a waterfall. They will give you a robe to come down in, which is so much better than trying to run down to a pool and cover up with a towel. Downstairs from the snack bar, which serves alcohol and also has homemade fudge, there is another one of many saunas and a salt bath with eucalyptus that makes your skin feel so amazing. There are water wands to rinse the salt away. I also did a pedicure during my stay, and the staff at the spa is amazing. The treatment was so relaxing and I was so happy with my pride-coloured painted toes. My esthetician was so good! She was very gentle and gave me the best treatment. This was my first pedi, but now I can say it won't be my last. All of the staff at the hotel were so friendly and helpful. They always say hello and ask if you need anything. I broke my stay up into different hotels, but when I visit again, I will only stay at Chateau Cartier. I have stayed at many, many hotels and this is superior by far! I hope to visit that wonderful spa bath/pool again and enjoy more of the spa treatments in the near future. I HIGHLY recommend this hotel to everyone.

Beautiful room, comfortable bed, had everything from mirror, desk, shower, 2 bedside tables, tv(though we didnt turn it on), iron, lots of storage space, plenty clean towels daily, coffee machine with plenty of pods, sugars and creamers, nice fridge where we can store leftovers & anything we want to store cold items, all neccesities: hand soap, bodywash, conditioner and shampoo though no toothpaste. Great cleaning service in the sense the room was always tip top clean. The only negative is not even a water bottle in the room.

We thought we could have dealt with it but it was too hard to sleep. Luckily even though it was Remembrance Day we were able to upgrade to a larger king bed room that viewed the park and free breakfast vouchers. Breakfast was decent but not great but we loved dinner and the drink selection. Our new room was much better and we watched the Remembrance Day procession from our room. Would recommend the Fairmont Chateau Laurier over here but this hotel isn't bad, just not quite on the caliber of history and luxury of there for the price charged and the Confederation Park views are nowhere as quite as spectacular as the Parliament views of Chateau Laurier.

I really do not understand how this hotel has so many unbelievably fantastic reviews. So, I'm going…read moreto tell you some of its truths. I have been saving up my AirMiles forever and am so angry that all those years of saving went toward this stay. The hotel tries to pass itself off as a multi-story, luxury hotel. It is not. You know those roadside, one level courts that are like The Bates Motel? The kind that are usually cheaper than others. It's like that. Now, parts of it are well maintained. They lobby is decorated a little upscale with a nice chandelier. They should've put that $ into the rooms. There is patio off the lobby, but I didn't see a bar or restaurant. The pool is on one side of the hotel. They have two sides of single level rooms and only one has good access to the outdoor pool. My room was on the other side at the back, which means I would have to walk past all the other rooms in a swimsuit and around to the other side to swim. When I got there it was raining and they had it closed, but I did notice it was full of leaves. She said it was closed for weather, but I had to wonder how long it had been since it was open with all the debris in the water. Each room does have a couple of chairs outside and there are nice flower planters at each room separation. There was a problem with this, however. I actually met a girl who was staying there during a boat cruise I took and she had the same opinion about the place as I did, which included sitting outside at night. She said it seemed like people lived there, and that was the impression I got also. There was major bridge/road construction going on up the road and it appeared the construction crew was staying there. I went outside4 one night with a cocktail to sit and every male eye seemed fixed on my position. I felt so uncomfortable I went back in my room and was regretting announcing I was staying alone by sitting out like that. She said exactly the same. Felt this way even though it was well lit. The carpet in my room was gross. You can see in the pictures, it was beat to death, a weird green dirty and pulling up in places. The whole decor scheme reminded me of the 70s when I was little. The colours were green, brown and this weird burgundy. The pillows were flat and uncomfortable and there were only two of them. The bed was hard and hurt my back. The reading light beside the bed was unusable because it started blinking erratically once turned on. The television channels were horrible. Almost everything in French. You have to know some of your visitors don't speak French. Limited too. The think that pissed me off the most was that the room advertisement said my room had its own hot tub. It was not a hot tub, was a jetted tub. The water ran from the tap in a pencil stream. It took an hour to get it at any level and of any temperature that was relaxing and worth it. So I only used it twice in five nights. There were bathrobes in the room, which was nice and the little office was separate from the bedroom. The room was very clean. There was a refrigerator and coffee maker. But the sleep was not comfortable and very early in the morning it was so loud. My room was at the back and the supply room must have been right there, so the level of noise was rattling. And the deposit. $200??? I stayed at Chateau Cartier right before which was stunning by comparison (stunning even without comparison) and they didn't even charge a deposit. Holding up that much on people for a motel that tries to seem like something it's not. It was an okay stay, but for the $ not close to worth it and for the above reason, I won't ever be returning.

The bedding was soft but I wasn't able to get any quality sleep. When I return to my room on second day, my duvet was replaced but I could see some obvious stains to it. Thank God I don't sleep on that side of the bed. Moreover, the TV is off-centered from the bed so only one side of the bed can see it. The sightline is blocked by a pillar on other half of the bed. There are less than 100 channels on the TV. The sports channel do not have high definition. I have to watch it on SD even though the TV screen is huge. Onto the bathroom. The faucet for handwashing was too close to the edge of the sink. The overhead shower was partially blocked and could only run for about 5-8 seconds before the pressure would shut the water off. The soap and shampoo bottles were very difficult to squeeze. I would probably book another hotel next time. One thing that is actually dangerous: the fire escape map in my room doesn't indicate which room I'm in on the map. No doubt that this is illegal. The things that are good about this hotel are knowledgeable staff and convenient location with lots of food and shopping options.

They share amenities with adjacent hotel unfortunately which means busy exercise facilities. One could book the pool ahead though it was still shared with others. This visit was week long so luckily I was able to upgrade to a suite which is good for a longer stay. However there was no house keeping and one couldn't even schedule it! What gives? I know we are in trying times but other hotel chain I stayed at in the same city could at least schedule it provided one was away for the designated time period. I was able to order towels, espresso pods etc. though the front desk but still an unmade room for a week! The only was to get a clean room was by changing the room which isn't viable. I tried the breakfast buffet during my stay and wasn't impressed at all. With all the delivery apps offering all sort of fresh options. I don't see a reason why one wouldn't use them to order breakfast in.

I found myself gravitating toward the lobby when I was there because it was interesting and captivating but the room was spartan and small. My window looked out onto some ducting and allowed very limited natural light in the space. The rest of the room was functional and practical but not stunning or noteworthy. Like others noted the hotel has no parking and the nearest is a parking garage that I could only access by entering on an adjacent street. It was not entirely convenient. Practical and efficient if you want some place to stay and the little bar is a nice touch.

I understand that early check-in is not guaranteed, so I was happy when a room was ready for us. The room we were assigned was on the top floor, with a balcony and a small table and chairs, with a view of the Parliament Buildings. There was a kitchenette, complete with a microwave, mini fridge, electric kettle, glasses and dishes and dish detergent. The closet area has shelving on one side, with an iron (and ironing board) and extra bedsheets, a luggage rack and lots of room to hang clothing. Bathroom amenities are in large bottles mounted to the walls. The only thing I did not see was body lotion. I tried to change the temperature on the thermostat and was not able to so I sought assistance from the front desk. The man working the front desk was on the condescending side and he kept interrupting me when I tried to explain the situation. Breakfast is a good spread of cereal, yogurt, fruit, different types of sliced bread, warmed plates, vegetarian and non-vegetarian burritos, bacon/pemeal bacon, home fries, scramble eggs, coffee with regular milk or soy milk.
