Reflecting the confidence, dignity and style of Ottawa, Fairmont Chateau Laurier stands as a testament to this dynamic, thriving city. Located in the heart of Canada's capital next door to the Parliament Buildings, the landmark Fairmont Chateau Laurier is a magnificent limestone edifice with turrets and masonry reminiscent of a French Chateau. Summer or winter, we make healthy activities simple. The Rideau Canal offers miles of bicycle and inline skating paths and the world's longest skating rink just outside our door. The nearby Gatineau Hills offer great hiking, biking and canoeing, and in the winter, cross-country ski trails and excellent downhill thrills. With Winterlude, the Tulip Festival and countless other festivals, Ottawa is a flurry of activity. Once you've taken in the wealth of sights, drop by the Health Club or satisfy your appetite at one of the hotel's superb Restaurants. Revel in the distinctive hospitality of Fairmont Chateau Laurier - your stay is guaranteed to be a memorable one.
Five Star Alliance Client Reviews - Fairmont Chateau Laurier
Mary S., Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. September, 2006
"The hotel was superb but the service and welcome we received every moment of our stay was exceptional. The attentiveness of the staff--at every level--made me feel very welcome---would recommend the hotel highly and would stay there again."
Patrick, Brazil. February, 2006
"Only one problem here - the staff are very, very friendly, but there are not enough of them. There should not be long lines to check in and check out at a luxury hotel. Location, location, location."
