Byward Blue Inn
Really a 3.5 rating, it took 4-5 minutes to get hot water and the room was hot with no ac to cool it down. Thankfully could open the window. Breakfast had bacon... so 3 stars for that alone

Lord Elgin Hotel
The room was perfect!!! The pool is great! But we were welcomed only in English (we are French Canadian) and it’s Ottawa, the capital of Canada . This city is supposed to be bilingual and this is a high quality hôtel, we expect bilingual staff at the réception. Not Even a « Bonjour ».
