Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ottawa by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice.convenient to state parks. Staff excellent."

Lifetime Memories, Hiking Trails, WIFI, Near River, Play Ground, NO CLEANING FEE

10/10 Excellent

"Great place-very large, open space. Perfect for our trip. Checking in was the only catch. We put the address in GPS and it took us deep into the resort cabins area. Reached out to host to ask about what building/cabin as I had not received any information. We had driven to the north so had to turn around and drive back to entrance to turn into south area. Host was very apologetic about not sending the check in information message."
