For Trip Advisor My wife and I always look forward to coming to Ottawa, to our favourite B&B, The Albert House Inn. The staff, mostly students, are welcoming, efficient, and courteous. They are also strong, because they carry our bags in for us up the steps at the front! They serve a marvellous large breakfast, which we like. When I... More

I came to Ottawa for a course and to sit for an important exam while trying to shake a nasty chest cold. The people at Albert House were tremendously hospitable, thoughtful, and actually cared about me while staying there. Offering hot tea regularly, good hearty breakfasts, and a genuine friendliness turned a potentially awful experience into a pleasant one. Thanks... More

Manager asked me not come back again because she did not like my girlfriend's attire. Accepted my money of 160 dollars and then asked me not to come back. Because I was disvaluing her place. She treated me as if I was scum. That no way to treat a customer. If she has a dress code she should let me... More

As the owner of the Inn, I would like to respond to this review. It was I and not my Manager who suggested Mr. F. stay elsewhere on his next visit to Ottawa. There are girlfriends and then there are girlfriends. . . . . I say no more. Catherine Delroy Owner More

I stayed at Albert House Inn overnight, and was very impressed. Salient points: - The hostess personally showed me to my room upon arrival - Hot tea was offered upon arrival - The room was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked - Complementary breakfast was delicious - homemade omelettes and apple pancakes :) Will be staying here again next time!

I only stayed for one day, but the staff was attentive and friendly. I enjoyed that late evening cup of tea while reading the newspaper by the fire in the lounge. I run a holiday rental business in Normandy (France), so I have an "insider's eye"! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Only one suggestion: an expresso coffee would be nice... More

Overall, I enjoyed my five-night stay. The staff is friendly to a fault, even bringing me a pot of tea while I was reading the the newspaper in the lounge, and making a brown-bag breakfast and arranging a taxi for my early-morning departure. The single room was tight - it certainly reminded me of the nun's cell it probably once... More

My 20 year old daughter and I stayed at the Albert Inn for the second time February 2013 in a comfortable, cozy twin room. Room clean and quiet, to be picky, some of the trim paint could use a touch up and owners may wish to print off some new booklets on info/recommendations re the area as the one in... More

I've stayed at the Albert House Inn 3 or 4 times over the last few years and I must say it's been my favourite place in Ottawa to stay. It's both great for the business and holidaying traveler. Park your car once and you can walk to almost everywhere in the downtown core of the city..........even to Quebec! The rooms... More

I discovered this B&B / family hotel years ago and stay there most of the time when travelling to Ottawa for business. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is wonderful. My bed was very comfortable, and I enjoyed the in-room jacuzzi. There were however a few things that needed to be fixed in the room. I notified management... More

My office colleagues stay at big hotels, but I stay at Albert House. From the moment I arrive I'm met with a smile. I LOVE the wood-burning fireplace crackling in the living room. I curl up on one of the sofas, laptop signed on to wi-fi, sipping on a hot chocolate or tea offered by the receptionist. Breakfast is made... More
