Review of Crowne Plaza Ottawa

Just got home yesterday from a 4 night stay at Crowne Plaza. I think this is a great hotel. It was easy to get to from Ottawa, as the bridge is up the street a bit and a right turn. We asked for a room with a view of the river, and the person at the front desk was happy to oblige. Great staff. The pool was comfortable, the room was clean. Close to the War Museum, so we got to walk there. It got a bit noisy each morning with the traffic at the front of the building, as it is a busy street used by working commuters (large government buildings close by). Bike trails were just across the street. The only complaint I have is the $17 parking fee each day. It think this was way too much while staying at this hotel. I think I would consider staying here again, but I would first check other hotels to find out if the parking fee was similar. The best part about staying in Gatineau, were the people. We were so pleasantly surprised that EVERYONE was able to speak English and did not mind switching to English when they realized we didn't speak French.
