Byward Market Downtown Guesthouse - A centrally located accommodation with shared kitchen facilities and proximity to cultural landmarks

Located just 1640.4 ft from Rideau, Byward Market Downtown Guesthouse offers guests heating and air conditioning with a convenient shared kitchen space. This Ottawa hotel sits at the heart of a culturally rich area, with the Ottawa Art Gallery, National Gallery of Canada, Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica, and Peacekeeping Monument all within a 500-meter radius. Food enthusiasts will appreciate the variety of dining options surrounding the property, including Oh My Grill, The Smoque Shack, Ahora Mexican Restaurant, Shafali Restaurant, The Tea Party, and Thai Palace-all located within 984.3 ft. Chez Lucien, a popular dining spot, is situated 1640.4 ft away. The Byward Market Downtown Guesthouse provides easy access to additional attractions such as the Royal Canadian Mint (0.5 miles), Bytown Museum (0.5 miles), Bank of Canada Museum (1 mile), Laurier House National Historic Site (1 mile), and Rideau Hall (1 mile).

Pros

The guesthouse is surrounded by at least 8 restaurants within a 500-meter radius, offering diverse dining options.

All major cultural attractions like the National Gallery of Canada and Ottawa Art Gallery are within walking distance.

Cons

Located 2.5 miles from the center of Ottawa, requiring transportation for accessing downtown amenities.

The property offers a shared kitchen rather than private cooking facilities in each room.

“This guesthouse definitely has location going for it. The Byward Market is steps away, and being downtown means easy access to the city's attractions. Plus, at least one reviewer found their bed to be supremely comfortable.”
