Fairmont Chateau Laurier

The staff and hotel are wonderful however…. The walls are very thin. I could hear our neighbours entire conversations which was particularly unpleasant at 5am. I couldn’t even drown them out with the tv. Also if you so much as move the snacks or anything in the mini bar in any way they will charge you. We simply opened a drawer then shut it when we saw what was there and they tried to charge us. Luckily we caught it on check out. But seriously, that’s a bit much. If I eat it or drink it charge me. If it gets slightly moved a few millimetres because I opened a drawer and you want to charge me? that’s ridiculous! I enjoyed my experience but there are cheaper hotels in the area that are very nice, better sound proofing and who don’t pull shenanigans with the minibar. 😊

Location was great. Byward market is literally beside the hotel. Lots of food options and very nice to walk around. Nice view of the canal. Hotel was AMAZING. Huge hotel and very clean and grand. Really feel like its worth your money. We managed to get connecting rooms as per our request which was amazing. Service was very friendly and a great experience overall. Would 100% stay here again.

Unbeatable location. Unique experience exploring the building, seeing the period details and historic photos and memorabilia around the hotel. Spacious room with good view. High tea was a delight ($$$ as expected) even though Zoe's is under renovation.

The room with a view looked over the Parliament buildings and bridge to Quebec. Corner King Deluxe room very spacious with a great bed, living room area, large closet and lots of big windows. Staff was accommodating to extend the late checkout. Door Man was wonderful and so was the valet staff. The lobby bar staff were great too. The building itself is iconic and absolutely stunning. I wish we could see more, stay longer than one night, and explore the gorgeous Chateau Laurier Hotel.

Beautiful historic property with tons of things to look at, right next to the parliament building
