Stayed 6 nights in this hotel while on a visit to Gatineau during last week of 2011. Despite ongoing renovations, I guess given the holiday time of the year, we did not feel the impact as the hotel was nice and really quiet from a renovation perspective, especially during the first couple of days. Having read comments from past visitors...

Excellent rooms especially the lake views looking onto Ottawa. They are however renovating to chnage name to a crowne Plaza, thus no pool. The have a little conveneice bar but their restaurant needs a bit of attention.

While our room on the 11th floor is quite nice, the renovations are not finished here. Additionally, I was extremely disappointed to find that the pool is closed. Had I known that ahead of time (we had been here twice in the past, and I had looked forward to doing deep water aerobics in their pool), we would have stayed...

We acknowledge and apologize for your disappointment during your most recent stay. With the extent of renovations still remaining to be completed, such as the front entrance, lobby, and restaurant all within the next few months, you can expect that the process will continue on until, at least, April 2012. It is unfortunate that our notice of the ongoing renovations...

On a last minute trip to Ottawa, the holiday inn was the only place nearby that had rooms available. The Hotel is a reasonable walk from downtown and Parliament Hill, but the hotel itself is not worth the cost. The halls on my floor were half painted and light fixtures were hanging from the wall. The halls smelled of paint...

We currently have completed the 10th to 14th floors, and the 9th floor is currently, partially completed & we are continuing our way down throughout the entire hotel. When we have high demand for rooms in the area, to accommodate our clients,...

Hotel is currently undergoing a very serious renovation in the nd of which it will become a Crowne Plaza.
Location is very good, right in the center of Gatineau, and about a 5 minute drive from downtown Ottawa. They have an underground parking garage whifh is very secure and connected directly to the hotel lobby.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! The night that we checked in, there was an amazing fireworks display happening in Gatineau, and we could see it right from the hotel. Great view from inside our room of the river, Ottawa, and the Parliament buildings. Easy walking distance to Museum of Civilization, Parliament, and Byward Market. Really great location!

My favourite thing about this hotel was that they let me check-in at 8:30 am so I was able to freshen up before going in for a work meeting next door. My second favourite thing about this hotel was that there was an internal passageway connecting the hotel and 1 Promenade du Portage - since that is where I needed...

We stayed there August 5-7, 2011. The hotel is in a quiet area, about 2-4 km from most of the museums/attractions in Ottawa. It wasn't bad, but there is clearly a lot of construction still going on. We paid a little extra to get a breakfast rate (buffet was OK for additional charge at booking, but no way you would...

We are happy to read that you enjoyed your stay. Blues Fest really is a great event & as you mentioned the view; I’d like to point out that you can see the main stage just to the right of the Canadian War Museum from the riverside rooms. Unfortunately not the music you have to be on the grounds for...

A dump. A/C doesn't work. Dust an inch thick on crown moulding. Couldn't get into the room until a maintenance guy fixed the card
reader on the door. While in lobby, another customer complained that there were undrewear on the floor when he checked into his room. Run screaming.

Can I ask if you would be willing to share more information directly with me, so that I can follow-up? It is...
