The hotel is in a great location. My room in the 12 floor was spacious, bright and beautifully decorated.
The breakfast was quite good and the breakfast area was large with plenty of comfortable spaces.
Great value!
Check In was easy and fast, The room was clean, comfortable, with everything I needed. The bed was especially comfortable, and the overall atmosphere felt calm and welcoming. I would definitely choose this Hotel again on my next visit.
Staff was very friendly. Hotel was amazing. The location, view everything was perfect. They had kitchen with all the appliances required for staycation. Even had cutlery including wine glasses, beer glasses etc. Overall amazing experience.
I would have liked a little more choice at the breakfast. Oatmeal, eggs, cheese would have been appreciated.
My room was quiet, and my bed was comfortable. The location was very convenient for the number of places I wish to visit. There were a number of restaurants and grocery stores quite close by.
We had a lovely stay, the staff was friendly and helpful. The Unit was clean and cute. It was so nice to have a fridge and sone dishes. Overall, a great stay! Highly recommend, as a great affordable option.
Excellent option, close to parliament, comfortable bed. Clean. Has kitchen with stove, dishwasher, microwave. Could have a toaster, would be ideal.

Really clean, conveniently located. It took 8 minutes to get hot water for the shower and the room is very exposed to street noise. Lovely staff. Overall great value for money but I’d bring earplugs next time!
The room was modern and perfect for our quick stay. The food was also decent, but we were hoping for at least a protein like eggs or cheese in the breakfast selection. Overall, our stay was fantastic, and we got a deal at an affordable price. We will surely recommend this place to our friends who wants a quick and accessible tour in Downtown, Ottawa.
The staff are just wonderful, particularly Wellie, who spent 45 minutes at least getting our tv connected. The rooms are very clean and spacious, the king-sized beds and bedding are really comfortable, and the kitchen is a great bonus for us. I’ve stayed here twice, once alone and once with my kids, and it’s lovely for both. My son and I spent an hour in the basement games room in the morning while my teen slept in, and we played air hockey and foozball and just enjoyed the couches and large space. Lots of good restaurants and the Rideau Centre super nearby for food. We love the Arlo!
The gym has basic equipment, good for the purpose. Rooms were very clean with good amenities. You can virtually cook in your room if you choose to. The front desk guys were super friendly. I had a problem with the TV and they quickly changed the room for me. Breakfast was equally good.
My only challenge is there's no telephones in the rooms so I had to always get down to the front desk for assistance and also that there's no onsite parking, even though there are paid parking lots around
On the whole I will rate this facility 9/10. You will not regret staying there
