Guest Reviews
- OLGA (10/5): - It's excellent place to stay, amazing service
- Judith (10/5): - Very comfortable stay with large breakfast. Irina was very friendly and helpful
- Adam (10/5): - Perfect, wonderful hosts
- Wileyska (10/5): Comfortable, great Hostess and quite neighborhood. - I highly recommend the stay at Ambassador B&B. Hostess is amazing and she prepares the most tasteful, awesome breakfast and was promptly served, loved it. Thank you.
- Vyacheslav (10/5): - Loved our stay
- Luisana (10/5): - I loved my stayed. Super close to where I needed to go (one of the embassy in the area) easy to walk to dinning places! I also walked to the Parliament and back. Room had everything I needed and the breakfast was amazing (Crepes and omelet). I would stay there again!
- David (10/5): - Go for the omelette, different (no spoilers here) but very good. A luggage rack in the room would have made it perfect.
- WILLIAM (4/5): - The house was in moderately poor condition, unattractive, not welcoming or homey whatsoever. My private room had no individual HVAC control. The A/C was running non-stop upon arrival. I had to go into the hall and change the thermostat for the entire 2nd floor to stop the onslaught of cold air. That is just wrong. On the night I stayed, someone, either another guest or the owner, was up and banging around their room until 2am. I suspect it was the owner. It was impossible to sleep through the noise. The TV in my room had 3 or 4 useless channels. Breakfast was poor to average. This is very probably the worst B&B I have ever stayed at out of 50. Will not use again.
- Lena (10/5): - Irina is very nice
- Colin (10/5): - The owners were very nice and served great breakfasts and coffee :) The room was very neat and well-prepared for my stay. I had a great time!
- Olga (10/5): Ambassador B&B - We loved our stay here!
- Jennifer (10/5): - The hostess Irina is such a great person, accommodating and her breakfast is the best! You have to try her pancakes and coffee.
- zailed (10/5): Excellent! - IWe chose this Bed and Breakfast because of its location. We were going to the Venezuelan Embassy to get our passports. Irina was kind enough to checked us in after midnight, gave us incredible and valuable information about the process (she has hosted many Venezuelans before us) like regardless the time going to the embassy to put our names on the list. And on top of that the breakfast is delicious, balanced and better than many hotels, in my opinion. Also ga ve us pointers where to go sightseeing after we did our errands. I cannot recommend this place enough.
- Angelic (10/5): - Amazing breakfasts. Very close to Venezuela Embassy. Beautiful place.
- Carmen (10/5): - Beautiful house and neighbourhood, excellent host and the best breakfast ever!
- Beatriz (10/5): Excellent Bed & Breakfast! - It is an excellent place to stay: comfy, clean and quiet. Irina was friendly and ready to help. The breakfast was delicious.
- Rose (10/5): Fabulous! - I was looking for the closest hotel/B&B to the Venezuelan embassy in Ottawa and happened to find this wonderful place by chance. What a gift! The hosts are a warm and friendly family, the breakfast is outstanding, the house is a block away from the embassy. Irina (the host) allowed me to leave my bag there while I spent the day in line. I came in during the long wait for tea and bath breaks. I can't say enough good things. Highly recommend!
- Orrin (10/5): - Breakfast was amazing!!!
- Etienne (8/5): Lovely stay in downtown Ottawa - The B&B is well-situated and has parking available. The room was spacious and comfortable, the shared bathroom was well-equipped, and the property overall was very clean. The family who runs it is very nice and the breakfast was delicious!
- Phil (8/5): -
- Brittny (10/5): - Irina is a wonderful host, and the atmosphere of this B&B is very homey and welcoming. The room itself was a bit chilly, but there were extra blankets in the room for that purpose. All standard amenities were provided. Breakfast in the morning was phenomenal, I would recommend staying at this B&B for that alone, never mind everything else :)
- Jennifer (10/5): - First time staying in a B&B. Such a lovely stay. Friendly Host, breakfast was lovely, room was so nice. Great area. Will stay again! Thank you!

Irina was a brilliant host - we really enjoyed talking to her, she made an amazing breakfast and she gave us some great tips about the city.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent!!! - This is an excellent guest house. Our host made us feel like at home. The place is super-clean and the breakfast was delicious.

- Verified traveler (10/5): - Irina was the best host, she was quick to respond and I found it easy to coordinate my arrival and super appreciate that I was able to check out later! Anything that I needed - hot tea during the day, recommendations of places to go and even a yoga mat - it was all provided by the welcoming hosts :) The house overall has a good ambiance and feel to it.

- Samuel (10/5): - Great location in a beautiful area close to several embassies, and walking distance from the downtown core and the byward market. The room was nice, and the breakfast good. Only issue was the shared bathroom, in the morning expect to wait your turn. Not a big deal for a night's stay but can turn out to be more than a little annoyance over a longer stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We loved the old character of the home. The host was very friendly and made a wonderful breakfast.

- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location and parking is good. Breakfast is yammy.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I would definitely go back and stay there. The room was nice, breakfast excellent and staff very friendly
- james (4/5): Far short of potential - While in a fine part of Ottawa the house is in need of much refurbishment. Only one bathroom for several guest rooms, House was largely occupied by Russian family who live there. No common area for guests to relax and no comfortable seating in the rooms. Breakfast appeared to have been prepared earlier and reheated. We will not return
- Laurie (8/5): - Our stay was good, no complaints, other than the breakfast time 7-9 am, irina did however asked us what time for breakfast on our second day, and was willing to make it for us at 9:30. I prefer breakfast to be from 7-10 am
- Jojo (6/5): - the staff was very unfriendly, very strong smell from cooking,
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property is a wonderful century home in the centre of the city. We had the Premium King Room which has an ensuite, a lovely large bathroom.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The breakfast was very good. The rooms were very clean. We enjoyed our stay and felt comfortable and well receieved.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean room and comfortable bed. Full breakfast was delicious and the hosts made accommodations for my dietary needs. Would stay again.

- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very nice hosts and home like atmosphere. I will return.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Overall it was really great. Amazing breakfast and very attentive host. My only complaints are that the picture you see here, led me to believe this bathroom was part of our room. It is not and is a shared bathroom with 3 other rooms. Partially my fault for not reading the description of the room fully, but misleading. And the wi-fi connection is not good. My wife and I were trying to do work on our laptops and kept loosing our connection.
- Adriana (10/5): - Very nice place, I felt like my home. the breakfast are excelente.
- Rebeca (10/5): - Great location and close to everything. Hospitality, cozy and amazing breakfast
- Phineas (10/5): - The staff members were really nice. They made sure that everything was clean. Irena made sure that I had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend that everyone stay there. The only issue is that it was a shared bathroom but then again I never had to wait a long time to use the washroom.
- Geoff (10/5): Convenient and safe location. - Good location within easy walking distance of major tourist sites and museums.Parking on site.Good neighbourhood.Good breakfast.The only drawback was the shared bathroom which always seemed to be busy especially in the mornings.
- Daniel (10/5): - Good place to stay
- Ashley (10/5): Good stay. - Great breakfast and the room was very comfortable.
- Peter (10/5): - Comfortable and nice quiet area. Close to downtown and the home is very nice along with the veiws.
