Our stay at the Alt Hotel was great.The staff was very accommodating with our special requests. The hotel was conveniently located to shopping, eateries and downtown Ottawa activities.
Quick overnight stay. Very modern room and courteous staff. Held our luggage after checkout for several hours while attending to business. Definitely will stay again when in Ottawa
The hotel was fine, room was nice and clean and new, but a bit on a small side. Ambiance at the bar is very cheerful. No parking at the hotel, but they have a reserved floor in the parking a short walk away. At the hotel, they charged $30 but the parking, if I entered there myself, would cost me only $20.
I love staying there. a peaceful place for me to stay.

Clean, simple and very modern hotel. Great location especially for the metro. The building lacks a little in personality, however staff helpful and polite. Easy to use coffee machine, good shower and room spacious.
