Fairmont Chateau Laurier
Byway Market area is very close. Recommend not going there after 2:00 PM due t the homeless and crazy people lurking about. Ottawa should get its act together and clear these "people" out. Hotel is excellent and impressive though, and a must stay if you are coming to the City.
