“Rideau Inn, with its Edwardian charm, places you comfortably in Ottawa's Golden Triangle, a short distance from Parliament Hill. What stands out is the guesthouse ambiance, secure parking, and the surprisingly quiet atmosphere within such a central location. I think families will appreciate the kitchenette suites, and those who enjoy a morning walk will find the proximity to downtown quite appealing.”
