Arc Hotel

Had no hot water on night one and room phone was not in working condition. Staff were friendly and when we ordered fresh towels and room service to the room (by our personal phones), service was lovely. Food on site was good. Neighbourhood was great with plenty amenities nearby. Air conditioner and air exchange was very loud and no way to turn down AC if you were cold. Great potential, just a few tweaks could make customer experience a little better!

Denis, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good enough....

This was a one night stay for an event in Ottawa. The good things: really good breakfast and fantastic sleep in probably one of the most comfortable beds I've slept in The downside: Parking garage is cramped and dirty and the inside of the hotel was grubby and in need of renovation or at least a paint job. We were in a pet-friendly room and perhaps that is why the carpet and furniture was was a little worn. Not sure I would stay there again.
Janet, 1-night trip

Cathy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel for the price, right downtown, within walking distance to many attractions, restaurants and coffee shops. Parking garage behind property and an outside lot for larger trucks (extra $25 per night). Staff were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms are a bit dated, but clean. Bed was comfy and clean, so were the towels and bath robes :)
