ALT Hotel, Ottawa

A totally enjoyable and centrally-located downtown hotel. Modern "industrial" vibe, stylish furnishings, pool table, lounge and work spaces and a caffe/bar. Spacious room with queen-size bed, comfy mattress/duvet/pillows, sitting area, ample lighting, closet with hangers, desk, large TV, coffee-maker, small fridge, large bathroom with nice towels and toiletries. Super-friendly and helpful reception and staff members.

Not a huge issue, but if you are a light sleeper and your room (on a higher floor) faces a rooftop with HVAC system, please note that there is a continuous hum. While not terribly loud, the sound is always in the background. I don't know if lower floors are also affected by this sound.

The bedding was excellent.

Lack of towels and instructions.

It's a nice modern hotel with a perfect location to walk the city. Friendly staff. We had a great time. The room was big, very clean and comfy.

Just a few opportunities for dinner dishes at the bar. And during the weekend there were very little alternatives to eat around the hotel.

Coffee machine,fridge, large tv. Large comfortable beds

Small window looking into back alley. Cracked and peeling ceiling contrasted with rest of modern decor Somewhat overpriced considering no breakfast

The room was very comfortable

The chair in the room looked very stylish but it was very uncomfortable to sit in

Price

Lots of space to move around in the room, the bed sheets were very soft and comfy… love white bedding! Bathroom is spacious and has shelf to put our personal stuff out… don’t have to keep everything in our luggage.

The air system was very noisy and prevented us from having a good night sleep. The bathroom door was extremely noisy… needs to be repaired.

What breakfast, nothing simple or quick, attendy needs better system for multiple customers, simple 1 serve Coffey maker would be great!

No cold water in sink, turned off hot and still got hot, crossover somewhere on manifold. Toilet higher, done in most facilities for the disabled. TV directory would have been great and instructions to have just one light on & stay on a night !

Thy were out of breakfast

You don’t have pool, And electricity for car

Beautiful design of this newly renovated hotel was a great experience.

There is no view from the hotel room

Good sized room and bathroom with shower. Close to Parliament metro station and Parliament buildings.

Despite booking made using debit card, when we arrived, we were told that debit cards aren't accepted, so had to use my credit card. That increased the price by £20 due to additional charges by my credit card company. No kettle for us tea drinkers. Frosted glass between shower and bedroom so lacks privacy.

Very clean! Nice bathroom

They didn’t have a mini fridge — would have been a plus if they did

Nice

Parking

The bar was too small to handle breakfast requests. This was not clear from the booking. Overall, acceptable.

Great location

Cost of parking

The beds and sheets were comfortable. The room was really large, spacious and very quiet.

Very minimalist decor. There was no shelving to unpack clothes.

Great location for our business in the city.

Nothing.

I finally had a view!!!

Nothing

Staff was courteous, allowed us to check in early, room was clean, loved the toiletries. Kettle for tea was provided on request along with some good choice of teas

The see-through glass shower! Also the running gap between the 2 doors of the washroom, allowing anyone who's standing outside the door to have a full show of whatever one's up to, in the bath - not sure if these features were a part of room aesthetics - any way i didn't like them at all.

Well located downtown Ottawa

Room and premises were spotless clean, modern equipment/bathroom. Love the fact that it's also an sustainability-certified hotel. There are no extraneous wrappers for soap, or those little sample size plastic bottles. You scan a QR code for the hotel guide. Location is in the business district, 5 min walk from Parliament Hill and 10 min walk to Byward Market and Rideau Centre. Very quiet at night, I felt I was alone on the floor!

The view from the room was disappointing. Although on the 10th floor, maybe I was just unlucky and got a view to a dismal, closed-off narrow alley with no sunlight. However natural light was OK during the day. The cafe downstairs is very basic, but good if you don't want to go out. There is also a bar but it closes at 11 pm (although it says 2 am in the room...), so maybe not the best place for a last call on the weekend.

Rooms are great

They don’t have breakfast, or room service

Location

Extremely friendly and helpful staff--- even at 3am! The facilities were clean and quiet. I loved the Chromecast with the TV.

I wish that the price was just a bit more affordable. While I loved the staff and the room, there were no extra amenities to really justify the price for one person. That being said, I understand that most hotel prices are really high right now.
