ANDAZ OTTAWA BYWARD MARKET, BY HYATT
Staff very nice, convenient and central location for many tourist attractions and shopping and great diverse food options (though neighbourhood a bit seedy), free wine with check-in, would stay again. Only issue was an admittedly special request of mine, they kept saying they put it in the notes ...
