Robson Suites offers value suites in an excellent location, with some nice freebies. Each suite is equipped with a full kitchen and washer and dryer. The rooms are spacious and clean, but a little on the generic side -- patios and balconies are a nice touch. Freebies include underground parking (almost unheard of in downtown Vancouver) and Wi-Fi. The location is super convenient for walking to shops, restaurants, and the beach. If you're looking for the full hotel experience with a restaurant, pool, and fitness center you won't find it here, but the Robson is an excellent value for what it does offer. Compare rates at the nearby Blue Horizon for an indoor pool and contemporary guest rooms -- but you'll lose out on the kitchens found at the Robson.

It's situated on the edge of bustling ByWard Market, and although it's surrounded by restaurants and nightclubs, the property's street is residential and relatively peaceful.

This charming family-owned mid-range hotel makes a great base for tourists and business travelers alike with its convenient location right by ByWard Market. The 22 guest rooms are small, but loaded with amenities, including iPads, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, and iPod radios, plus some have fireplaces (and one even has a whirlpool). A Swiss-style breakfast gets great reviews from guests, but incurs a fee. There's a lovely little outdoor patio where guests can enjoy breakfast alfresco, but other than a meeting room and business corner, there's not much else here in terms of features. Note that kids under the age of 12 aren't allowed. For something with more amenities, check out The Westin Ottawa, which has a gym, squash courts, indoor pool, steakhouse, and bar -- but rates are more expensive.

The upscale Westin Ottawa has a convenient location adjacent to the Rideau Canal and connected to the Shaw Centre and Rideau Centre shopping mall. Given its central location, the 24-story hotel buzzes with activity, from meetings and government events to leisure travelers. Highlights include a large fitness center, indoor pool/whirlpool, fine-dining steakhouse, concierge, and 44,000 square feet of event space. Its 495 rooms are slightly bland, equipped with mini-fridges, coffeemakers, and robes. Wi-Fi isn’t free for many guests, and some rooms have no views. Rates are competitive for its location and category, but the upscale Ottawa Marriott Hotel typically has better rates. It’s downtown but not as centrally located, however.

Travelodge Ottawa West is a mid-range property situated in the Carlington area, not far from downtown Ottawa. The 196 rooms are simple but pleasant, and come with flat-screen TVs and cherry-finish furniture, and the option of microwaves and mini-fridges. However, it's the facilities that really stand out. For families, there's a huge water park with a big slide and a splash pool. Convention planners will appreciate the large amount of meeting space. There's also a fitness center (though it's limited) as well as coin-operated laundry facilities, and a free continental breakfast is served daily. However, as the hotel's not downtown, guests might find they need a car, and parking can be limited due to nearby construction (as of summer 2018). For something in the city center, consider the three-pearl Cartier Place Suite Hotel, which offers rooms with kitchens and a better gym.
