My wife and I decided to take an overnight getaway to explore Ottawa and celebrate our anniversary. We chose the ByWard Blue due to its nearby nature to a number of restaurants and other local attractions in central Ottawa.
Arriving, we were welcomed by a very friendly attendant who checked us in quickly and efficiently.
The only downside is they have very limited parking (maybe 10 spots) and they’re not included. If they are out of parking, there is a public lot that is immediately next door and easy to get your belongings to/from the car. We parked in Nextdoor lot due to spots being taken.
The room was like the rest of the hotel and was very clean and neatly arranged. It is obvious that cleanliness and maintenance are a focal point of the ByWard Blue. Counters, floor, caulk, shower, etc…all were very clean and in absolutely top form. I would venture to say this is probably the most well maintained hotel I’ve stayed in.
Our room had a small kitchen area that had a microwave, mini fridge, as well as dishes, glassware, silverware, and supplies to clean the kitchenware. The bed area was simple but very nice and comfortable and the bed itself was cozy without the mattress being overly firm.
Breakfast was very nice. Great selection including eggs, potatoes, sausage, sandwiches, bread for toast, pastries, coffee, tea, etc.
Fantastic value overall for the price.
100% would come back here next time we stay in Ottawa.
