The Westin’s Shore Club restaurant provided exceptional food and service as well as an intimate romantic atmosphere. Our waiter, Connor was both professional and very personable. The Westin hotel in Ottawa was where we held our wonderful wedding reception forty years ago and I must say that the hotel and the restaurant are still great and in fact, better than ever. Well done!

We love the Westin. This is the hotel to stay at every time we go to Ottawa. The rooms are spacious and clean. The view was spectacular with comfy chairs to sit on and enjoy the view. The bed is great as well. We also enjoyed brunch on the 3rd floor. Parking was also convenient, as it was connected to the mall. I would highly recommend this hotel.
