Ottawa Where to Stay
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Where to Stay in Ottawa, Ontario.
Ottawa Accommodation Guide
Canada's capital city lies on the banks of the Ottawa River directly across from its twin city Gatineau in Quebec. The city boasts the fourth largest population in Canada and yet is so compact visitors can walk to the majority of attractions and lodgings. Easily accessible by bus, car, plane and even train, Ottawa is composed of a number of different districts, each of which has evolved since the city's beginnings in the mid-19th century to become distinct neighbourhoods with special characteristics, landmarks and sites. Accommodation options are numerous and visitors, whether they are young travellers on a budget, families with kids or in the city on business, will all find something within their price range. Options include basic and fun hostels, charming neighbourhood B&Bs and ritzy, upscale hotels.
DOWNTOWN, CENTRETOWN & SOMMERSET HEIGHTS
Ottawa's downtown core is the city's commercial and financial centre, and many of the city's most prominent landmarks are found in the area, which encompasses Parliament Hill and is bordered to the north by the Ottawa River, to the east by the Rideau Canal, to the south by Somerset Street and to the west by Bronson Avenue. Directly south of downtown is Centretown, which stretches to the Queensway Highway (Hwy 417), while Sommerset Heights encompasses the area directly to the west of Bronson Avenue.
