Lovely staff and clean hotel. Pool side rooms can be a little noisy if you need an earlier night ( open until 10pm ) and it was loud with music playing, but we had chosen that room so I will know for next time. Also a strong smell of chemicals from the pool in those rooms so that’s worth considering if you are thinking of getting a pool view. The restaurant was very nice and the food was excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

The staff are excellent. We are anglophone but had not trouble - everyone wanted to help. When we arrived I came down with a violent flu and we could not go on. The staff were so helpful in extending our stay and getting my wife some coffee and food to tide her over outside restaurant hours. Tonight I just wanted some toast. Closed again - but my returned with toast - no charge - "Merry Christmas". We will always plan to stay here on our way to Ottawa.
