We have stayed at the 'Minto' twice and have booked another visit for later this year. We have always enjoyed our stays there (hence the re-book) and are especially looking forward to this year as it has recently been completely re-furbished. The pictur ... Read review

Well im back onto the hotel reviews again after a recent visit to Ottawa in Canada. After freezing my buttocks off and nestling into my scarf grabbing my bags and rushing into the hotel I had little chance to look at the exterior of the hotel! Walking ... Read review

Hiya. I like to write in the travel section too so hopefully see more of your stuff. I think you've got a lot of good info here, but you need to structure it better. Use headings and write a clear paragraph on each element. People will rate you down if they cant easily get a sense of what you are writing about. Have another go, and let me know via my guest book. Take care Shoka by Shoka

Ottawa, the capital of Canada, was the second stop on a recent trip across Canada. Before going there, I knew the basics (i.e. that its the capital) but couldn't really have pointed out any landmarks. I have to say that I was very impressed by what I sa ... Read review

Ottawa, Canada’s capital city. What’s it like – Although it’s the capital, it’s a smallish city (about 1m people) so it’s possible to walk round. Unlike a lot of other Canadian cities they’ve preserved their historical buildings so the city has a r ... Read review

Ottawa, Canada's federal capital, does not find its way onto many tourist itineries, it is really too far from Toronto to be worth the trip, although it is much easier to make the journey from Montreal. Geographically, politically and culturally, the ... Read review

Great review - we spent only a couple days in & around Ottawa, preferring instead the eastside provinces of Newfoundland (see my review). We hope to go to Canada again for a more fulsome stay in Toronto, Quebec & Montreal - your review has got me in the mood to go right away:o) by Sonatine

Thanks, great op. I would love to visit the museum of civilisation - it sounds like just my kind of thing. by Collingwood21

This is by no means a definitive guide to Ottawa, but some jottings based on a couple of visits. I always feel with places that you are likely to go to again, that there’s no point in rushing to see it all, and to date, I haven’t! ********* ... Read review
