Stayed at this Hotel on a business trip. The staff at reception were very accomodating as when I arrived they had booked my room on a smoking floor in a non smoking room. I asked if this could be changed and it was quickly done without any problems. They even upgraded me to Executive room with King bed. A wonderful... more

We were delighted to read your review regarding your stay last week. Yes, we are going 100% smoke free and it was a difficult decision. However almost all guests now request non-smoking rooms, even if they are smokers. I am delighted to hear we looked after you so well. Our front office are wonderful and work very hard. It is...

The hotet is superbly located. Parking staff are fast and courteous. There is no prentious "must help you to your room sir"....attitude. 6 elevators so speedy access. The room was lovely, everything we needed. The pool was under renovation but will try it the next time we are there. We did not use the dining room until the last day... more

We have completely finished our work on the pool (it was closed for three weeks for a fresh coat of paint, a new filter and then of course, to refill it and warm up the water). You...

I recently stayed at the Lord Elgin for a weekend while visiting family, as it was recommended by a close friend. I checked in on Friday to a wonderful welcome by a wonderful Bellman named John.

Spent a few days here and slept really well so had energy to put into meetings. Would have liked free internet access but the beds were great and they even had a pillow menu. Excellent location near historic and downtown areas. Very helpful and friendly staff. more

Coincidentally since you have left, all of our elevators have been refurbished inside with new beautiful wood and brass interiors,new marble flooring and lighting. We have yet to refinish some of the...

It is VERY convenient to the main attractions - Parliament Hill, Byward Market, Rideau Centre, U of Ottawa, etc. The rooms were... more

We stayed at this hotel for two nights. The staff were so helpful - we arrived by car and were helped immediately by Mike, who unloaded our luggage and arranged for the car to be parked. Mike waited with us at reception and asked if there was anything in particular we were planning to visit while in Ottawa and picked... more

We have read your feedback out to many staff, as an example of what one staff member can do to really make a guest's stay memorable. We are so fortunate to have some fabulous staff. These comments though are so great in helping reinforce and encourage...
