This hotel is always amazing. Only slight issue we had this time was our room had a smell, we think it may have been painted recently? Other than having to open the windows to air out a bit, all was good. Thanks!

Property was well maintained and room was immaculate with everything you need for a short stay.....will definitely be coming back during the summer season and will enjoy having a drink on the balcony. Breakfast was also great with something for everyone and all fresh and delicious. Location was great with Byward Market less than a 5 minute walk away and Parliament Hill also a short 20 minute walk away. A definite winner all around.

The property great and staff were lovely. I am very dissapointed with the hotels.com reservation as I picked the 124 rate including service and taxes. When I looked at my reservation confirmation they had charged 165 ! Not happy with that. Be aware. I recommend the property.
