Our stay at the Chateau Laurier on Dec. 14th was very disappointing. On arrival we waited nearly 30 minutes just to pull under the portico to unload our bags and begin the check-in. Only valet parking is available, but it was pure chaos. Cars jamming up the entrance and the driveway in and out of the parking lot. Check-in, once we got inside, was quick and friendly. The room was small but very comfortable. The Chateau is an old style hotel so the bathrooms are generally small but well appointed. Then we tried to access food service around 6pm. The main dining room is only open for breakfast, the former, lovely bar now serves as the main food venue and it was chaotic. We had to line up in the lobby which is over-run and freezing cold from the poor front door management. The cafe alternative had a line-up of more than 25 also lined up just off the lobby. Finally we gave up and went to a local restaurant around the corner and had a lovely meal. The next morning we tried the main restaurant for breakfast at 10:30 (supposed to be open until 11am) and were told we had to come back at 11:30 and only for brunch now, a much more elaborate option. Again we went somewhere else. Last insult was an hour wait to get our car. In short, the Chateau Laurier has gone from being a peaceful oasis of top-quality, high-service and great food to a chaotic mess with poor service and an unsettling experience. Not what one would expect from a Fairmont property.

It’s a classic old hotel that is starting to show its age. My room was very nice and comfortable but some furnishings a bit worn. One particular annoyance was the number of room service trays that were in the corridor left uncollected, it’s a bad look. Centrally located so can walk to all major sights and there is a shopping centre close by.

It's a great hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful. It is a nice location, close to historical sites, close to a large shopping mall if you like that kind of thing. Many good restaurants and bars within 5 - 10 minutes. Byward market is about 6 minute walk. Will stay there again next time we're in Ottawa.

The people to our right if facing window, knocked on our wall indicating we were too noisy even though we lowered our as one of the three had gone to sleep early. The people to our left were heard quite clearly but not shouting just using regular volume. Sound proofing should be improved. Although for myself I'd use ear plugs. It was only 9:30 when someone knocked on our wall. It was annoying as we were lowering our voices.
