How do you like Le Germain Hotel Ottawa?

I recently moved to Ottawa and love it. The city is beautiful; little by little, I’m walking across the city like a tourist. 

As for the hotel, I shouldn’t say it, out of our 18 hotels in Canada, it’s one I prefer. It’s beautiful, and the views are wonderful.

What makes the hotel special?

I think the design of the hotel and the views from it. But what makes the difference for me is the people that work here. We want people to feel welcome and comfortable and enjoy their time with us. It’s really important for us and what makes the difference.
