“We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.”

As a part of a Business trip to Canada, I had stayed here in this Hotel in July 2019 for 3 Nights.
This was my first stay in the Fairfield brand of the Marriott hotels.
This hotel is near to the Ottawa International Airport.
Seems this is relatively a new hotel. There are around 232 rooms available in this hotel.
There is a bus stop available in a 100 meters distance from the hotel.
You can get bus (Number 97) to city center (coming from airport) from this bus stop.
Advantages:
- There is a 24 Hours Airport shuttle available.
2. The reception area is quite spacious.
3. Lot of parking is available (seems its free)
4. Breakfast spread was good. I believe they don’t have a full fledged restaurant as lunch and dinner is not available.
But I think the Hilton hotel (in the same campus) have a restaurant.
5. The room was huge (tall ceilings) with a sofa, 2 large flat screen TV’s, kitchenette including fridge, Oven and coffee maker, king sized bed and fitted wardrobe.
6. The en-suite bathroom was also absolutely massive with separate bathtub and shower plus toilet and basin.
7. The rooms had a wonderful view of the Ottawa airport runway (no much noise from the airport nearby).
You can watch planes from your hotel room.
8. There was free wifi available.
9. Proper gym is also available.
10. They also have a luggage baggage room where you can keep you luggage on safe custody (if there are challenges with early check in or late checkout)
11. The indoor pool was nice and clean.
Disadvantages:
- Don’t have much negatives with this hotel.
2. Its around 30-40 minutes (in bus) from the city center.
3. They dont provide free water bottles. I think its common in Canadian Hotels.
But they have a mini snack shop within the hotel near the reception from where you can buy the
water bottles.
