Places to stay in Downtown, Ottawa

John and Katherine were extremely kind and responsive. Le Bijou was a great little oasis after a day at the spa. I would recommend their place to anyone looking to explore Chelsea.

We are a not for profit intermediate resource in Chelsea that operates an assisted living facility for 6 adults with intellectual challenges. A few weeks ago we had a fire at our home and were forced to move out while things were being sorted out. Trevor was able to provide accommodation for our residents and staff on very short notice. The fire and temporary moves have been difficult and stressful for everyone, and it was nice to be able to settle in to a comfortable spot for a few days. Trevor and his partner were very welcoming hosts. We are fortunate to have such good neighbours in our community. The house was perfect and all enjoyed! Thank you.

Carole is an amazing host and her home was perfect for our trip. We travel on a regular basis and this was the cleanest home we have ever stayed at. Absolutely spotless! Carole goes above and beyond for her guests including the family fur babies! If you are planning a trip to the area do not hesitate to book with Carole, you will be glad you did!

I Had a great stay! The place was very clean and nicely set up. Everything was just as described and super comfortable. Would definitely stay again! Highly recommended!

This was my third time staying at Elcho's lovely place. I keep coming back to her warm, clean, charming and well equipped apartment. I had a chance to meet her lovely partner, Don, which made this stay even more special. I highly recommend Elcho's place for those looking to discover Ottawa. Well located, it is walking distance to Transit way, Byward market and the beautiful Strathcona park along the riverside.

The house was lovely. Spotless. Quiet neighborhood and easy to get to main roads.

Awesome! We had an extended stay, and our hosts were wonderfully accommodating. They are very friendly people and were easily accessible and responsive to our needs to ensure a comfortable stay. Their apartment was spacious, clean and bright, and their equipped kitchen, laundry and comfortable beds made for living easy. They are situated in a great location with easy access to shops, LRT transit and the 417. A great choice! We highly recommend!

By way of background, not only have we lived in the area in the past, but we have stayed in numerous Kanata/Stittsville Airbnbs. Overall we have been pretty uniformly disappointed. So fed up with getting six plates, cups and glasses, and one or two pots/pans stocked for a three bedroom home furished with the most basic of furniture possible. This house however, was exceptional. Not only was the house very comfortable but the host was generous in stocking well beyond basics. This is especially true for the kitchen which was as well equipped as my own- and I like to cook. It felt more like a sister letting you use her very spacious and clean house for a week than a rental. I cannot recommend this home enough. If you want a quiet, supremely comfortable and convenient family stay, I sincerely believe you cannot do better than this house/host in the Ottawa west, Kanata, Stittsville area.

this was my second time staying here and my experience was great both times. I would recommend this place to anyone.
