We used this quaint little hotel for 2 nights. Our room was on the 2nd level and had the cutest balcony with a view of the US consulate in the distance. Our room had 2 single beds, a kitchen and bathroom. Parking was nearby. The breakfast was good and included the usual buffet fare. The best part was the walking distance to the ByWard Market, many shops and restaurants and bars.

What caught my eyes from the moment we entered the Byward Blue Inn was the original art work that is visible in every direction you turn , in common spaces and in our room. Staff made us feel most welcomed from start to finish of our initial visit. Definitely we willplan a return stay on future stop in Ottawa.

Acariens dans cet hotel
De retour à la maison, j’ai noté des piqûres d’acariens dans le dos et le côté de mon corps . J’ai beaucoup de démangeaisons et de brûlures. Je ne vais plus jamais aller à cet hôtel insalubre et j’aimerais bien avoir un remboursement

A quiet, peaceful location near the Market
A lovely gem - modern building set in historic Lowertown. Wonderful breakfast included. Don't forget to check out the paintings in the stairway. Staff were very friendly, super helpful.
