Alphabetically, this is the first "Downtown B&B" in the Official 2010-11 Ottawa Visitor Guide. Expecting the usual B&B amenities, charm and furnishings, I was shocked when I arrived at A Voyageur. The good: (1) I got a same- day reservation, and good directions by phone; (2) Neera, the manager, is very friendly; (3) bedroom, bathroom and linens were clean; (3)... More

Even if we hold the reservation with a credit card, our room wasn't ready so we had to take another room. Nothing was clean. The washroom was so dirty that we couldn't enter it.

Rooms were not clean nor ready even though it was quite late on in the evening. I'm not sure it should be classed as a B&B for tourists when the majority of the guests were in fact long term residents. It is more like a hostel. It was the sight of the knife by the cash desk that made me... More

Location is excellent - near main trans-Canada highway (Queensway - 417) and bus station, about a block from the main street of centretown Ottawa (Bank St) and within a mile or so (1.6km) of Parliament Hill, Rideau Canal and other downtown attractions. Parking is included and rates start just above $C50 (single occupancy). This property is an older house with... More
