Great!
Tucked away at a quieter part of the Byward Market. I had a decent sleep there after a late night out in the market. Rooms seemed renovated. I found it clean and comfortable. The included continental breakfast was very decent actually.

Gem of a little hotel
We were passing through Ottawa and wanted to stop to visit our son for a couple nights. We booked last minute not sure what Byward Blue would be like. It was great. Excellent location. European style rooms and a great breakfast. The coffee was very good as well!

Ottawa trip
My stay was excellent. I got a room at the ground level (same as frontdesk), good size, high ceiling with patio access. The hotel is close to many restaurants. The breakfast was plentiful with a good variaty of food. I higly recommend it.

Great location, good condition, cool art
Kind of unusual, and a little tricky to find the way in at first until you know, but a real hidden gem. The room was big, everything worked, and the location very central. Parking close by (sort of underneath). The area, like all central Ottawa the past few years, is really struggling to support the people that clearly need help for addictions or health issues, but this is as good a spot as you'll get and we didn't feel unsafe (though we had to cross the road once when someone who was really wired wanted to throw his milkshake into a restaurant or passerby). The number one cool think about this property that doesn't actually change anything, but would make me want to stay there again, is the artwork. It's all by one (deceased) artist, and it's everywhere, in the stair wells, halls, different places. It's really cool, and one of a kind. Makes it from a good place into a special place.

The breakfast offered many options including a milk alternative (soy is not my favourite, but at least there was a non-dairy alternative). The beds were comfortable and the hotel was very quiet. Location was convenient, but car charging was a bit challenging to find (there is charging in the parkade next door to hotel though!)
