My stay at the Fairmont was amazing. The room was quite comfortable, the pool and work out areas were amazing, the coffee shop was delightful each morning and the grounds surrounding the hotel were spectacular. Th only down side is if you have to valet. It took me over an hour one day to get my car and the next day, the app said it would be 45 minutes but i did get it at about 30 minutes. Just be prepared to request it early.

Very smooth check in and receptionist was so helpful and attentive, helped us check in few hours earlier which is a great help. Facilities are not new but has everything, don't think they have any vanity kit. Bathroom shower space is so small, you might bump into the wall or shower door.

Amazing historic property right in the centre of Ottawa. The rooms were quite disappointing, rundown with peeling wallpaper, old, tired lamps and scuffed leather chairs. The hotel itself was amazing. However, the rooms were quite a letdown.
