The places I am recommending are all centrally located around the Byward Market and Downtown.
It would be nice if everyone stays in the same couple hotels, I have contacted Courtyard by Marriott, Albert at Bay Suite Hotel and Arc regarding group rates and I will post the information when I receive it. Once I hear from the 3 hotels I will let everyone know what the best deal is.
All the prices I mention below are before taxes.
HOTELS:
Courtyard by Marriot (located in the market)
http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/yowcy-courtyard-ottawa-downtown/
This hotel is in a great location. The rooms range from $150.00 to $200.00 a night.
*There is an online only deal for $134.25 per night for 2 queen beds, this is a good deal but non-refundable.
I have contacted the Courtyard about group rates - I will post the information when I get it from the hotel.
The Albert at Bay Suite Hotel (located downtown)
http://www.albertatbay.com/
Cordell's parents are staying here and they have apartment style rooms with kitchens.
This is a good option for small groups of people who want to share a hotel, 1 to 2 bedroom suites range from $118.00 to $200.00.
I have a group quote from this hotel - they will give us 1 bedroom suites for $129.00 a night (1 bedrooms can have 1 or 2 queen beds).
Bostonia Executive Suites (located downtown)
http://www.thebostonian.ca/index.html
Breakfast is included with some of the rooms. $98.00 for studio suites, $132.00 for one bedroom suites and $108.00 for 2 doubles.
Arc (located downtown)
http://www.arcthehotel.com/
This is a beautiful hotel and a nice choice for couples. It is where Cordell and I are going to stay for 2 nights. It is expensive but if you are only coming for the weekend they do offer a 'weekend rate' if you check online, $165.00 per night for 1 queen. There is also a special called 'on a whim' for $125.00 a night!
I am also checking on group rates at this hotel.
BED AND BREAKFASTS:
Albert Inn
http://www.albertinn.com/
Rooms here range from $118.00 to $178.00.
Benner's Bed and Breakfast
http://www.bennersbnb.com/
This is a modern style B&B perfect for those who don't like the old, Victorian look of many B&B's. There are only 3 rooms at this place so if some of you are interested we could book all 3 rooms for the wedding.
The rooms are a great deal ranging from $95.00 to $130.00 per night.
Auberge McGee's Inn
http://www.mcgeesinn.com/
This is a nice looking place, the rooms range from $118.00 to $198.00 a night.
DORM ROOMS:
University of Ottawa (located in the market)
Here is an interesting option, the University of Ottawa Student Residences operate as accommodations starting in May. Apparently rooms are available in in a variety of residences but the one that is recommended is at 90 rue Universite (it was recently built and has all suites).
The suites have 2 bedrooms (with 1 double bed in each room), as well as kitchens and ensuite bathrooms. You can have access to a pool and exercise room for an extra fee. The University of Ottawa is located right in the market area. $99.00 for a 2-bedroom suite / max 4 people.
