"Convenient!"
Very convenient location, within walking distance to all the sites. Breakfast could be improved--fairly basic and plain. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Parking next door in public lot--slightly cheaper than their own garage.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent hotel in a central location near Byward market and restaurants, as well as specialty shops. Staff was very helpful and assisted in recommending good places to eat and best transport routes.

[…] Most rooms have a fridge and microwave.Hotel ideal for mid to long-term stays. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great Location!"
The hotel is literally down the street from the primary shopping and nightlife center of Ottawa. It is an excellent location. The hotel itself was fine. No problems and the staff was courteous and helpful. The French language was no problem. Most people are bilingual.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Optimal hotel location, cost and comfort"
This is my second stay in Byward Blue Inn (last time it was in 2010) and it was as comfortable as I expected and looked forward to. - The Byrward Inn is a 5 min walk to most locations including the US Embassy, many restaurants, bus stop, malls etc. The building itself is located in a residential area so there isn't any traffic noise. - Rooms are very […] clean and daily cleaned by maid service - High speed wireless throughout the Inn (with speeds averaging 21Mbps). There is even a complementary laptop available on request. - Breakfast (for me one of the most important criteria): There's breakfast which ranges from wheat/white/cinnamon bread, croissant, eggs, potatoes, to 3 varieties of cereals along with the usual varieties of Tea and coffee, Juice and flavored Yogurt. - The hotel managers (personal experience with 3 of them) are very friendly and extremely responsive to any and all requests made of them (and I made my fair share of demands). Their motto seems to be "we aim to please". - Room amenities include a reading table, 1-3 chairs, TV + remote, microwave, mini fridge, bed lamps, some cutlery, dishes / bowls, etc. Iron board and pressing iron available on request. - They also offer afternoon Tea with some cookies/fresh fruits/etc. - Adjustable room heating is available so you can set your own heating preference. Hot hot water is always available (something obvious that is not always present in other similarly charged hotels). I highly recommend Byward Blue Inn Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Ottawa downtown Jewel"
This hotel was in a great location in downtown Ottawa. It was within walking distance to museums, Parliament, shopping (including the Byward Marketplace), restaurants, etc. The staff was helpful with directions, etc. The only downside was if you needed to use your car now and then, it was a little costly to park. There were many choices of parking areas […] nearby, but one had to be careful to move the car before the meter or time was done. The hotel had a satisfying continental breakfast and a snack time in the afternoon. The beds were comfortable but not the most comfortable depending on one's own idea of comfort. The cleaning crew often did not come until the mid-afternoon which was a little bothersome. But overall, we had a nice stay and even extended our stay in this hotel.

"Great location - Great stay"
Byward Blue Inn has been our hotel of choice in Ottawa. Its location at the Byward Market is central to all of Ottawa's top attractions. Hotel is clean, friendly and easy on the budget. We'll be coming back the next time we're in Ottawa.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very nice experience"
Liked the convenience of being able to walk to Byward Market and its restaurants. Very cose to Parliament Hill and the Gallery of Art. Next door parking garage was also very conveneient. Heard very little noise from our neighbors or the neighborhood.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Where you what to stay"
How to explain Byward blue, Inn. It is Europian in all ways. Well placed, comfortable, nice service, very knowledgeable and helpful staff, and right on the edge of everything. This hotel was excellent except for one thing: the window air conditioners are installed such that street noise is easily heard in the room, which created a sound problem. Overall […] this is a jewel of a hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A Very Lovely B&B!"
Hotel had a very bright and cheerful atmosphere when we walked in...very clean, cute local art work... Staff was very friendly and helpful... I was pleasantly surprised to see that the rooms were quite spacious with tall ceilings and it was very clean...I appreciated the additional amenities which were included in the rooms, (i.e. a fridge)... The "Continental […] Breakfast" that was included in the room rate actually included eggs (for soft or hard boiling only), which was a step above most continental breakfasts offered out there! Overall it was a very nice experience with a very good value, so I would recommend this B&B to anyone staying in Ottawa - especially those who are touring the downtown area (location was GREAT - right in the heart of the Byward Market and only about a 10 min walk from the Parliament Building). A very lovely hotel and experience! :-) Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great location, cute place"
Very conveniently located next to the market. It's a small hotel in between some apartments in a quiet end of the street. Parking garage is very small and tight, but at least it's reasonable price and you get in and out privileges. Breakfast was weak (bagels, muffins, etc) but at least the dining room area was nice. My only other gripe was that there […] were not enough towels in the room. And maybe that the little folding chairs in the rooms were a bit flimsy and looked like they would break if you sat in one. I would totally stay there again though. Loved the wood floors and comfy beds with all white bedding. Nice staff! Overall great stay! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Byward Blue Ribbon"
This place has a very friendly and welcoming staff. I had booked a non balcony room, but they upgraded me for to a room with a balcony as the hotel wasn't that filled. My stay was for one night only, but I was very satisfied with it. It is in a prime location and you have so many things to do close by. Tip: there are public parking lots close by that […] you can use as an alternative to the private parking the hotel provides and it costs just one third of the hotel's parking charges.

Small funcional type kitchen and coffee maker in room.good shower, lots of hot water.iBreakfast […] so-so but adequate, front desk very helpful with directions.

Amazing for the price and location. Will definitely stay at Byward again.Why did I not know about this hotel before??? I've been going to Ottawa from Toronto for more then ten years and I just discovered this hidden gem...Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Location"
The staff were very polite, our room was comfortable. The location is great, a short walk to everything. We had a great view from the balcony. The only problem we had was a noisy man in the hall at 3 a.m. but that wasn't the Inn's fault. The next time I visit Ottawa I will book this location.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very good location and quaint place."
We had a really good stay at Byward... The room was cosy and ours had a balcony.. on the front .. It was quiet even on a weekday morning.. The breakfast had a nice variety to offer.. The coffee could be stronger.. seemed quite watered down. It has a European flavor to it.. like some inns there.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Perfect location"
The Inn was located centrally in the busy Byward Market, but on a quiet street. Greeted warmly and enthusiastically by the afternoon/evening concierge, and he continued to follow up on our stay/activities throughout our 3 days at the Inn. Rooms were very comfortable and clean, with a balcony overlooking a courtyard and the surrounding neighbourhood. […] The Inn has the feeling of a European motel, and will be the place we return to when we come back to Ottawa. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
