Comfort Inn

Comfort Inn Overview

First Impressions

The Comfort Inn on Michael Street doesn’t try to be something it’s not — and honestly, that’s exactly what I appreciated about it. Walking into the lobby, you get that reliable, no-nonsense vibe that makes you feel like you’re in good hands without any pretense. It’s a solid three-star property that clearly knows its audience, and after staying here, I can see why so many guests keep coming back.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I really liked about the spot — you’re actually in a pretty sweet location in Ottawa without paying downtown prices. Michael Street puts you close enough to the action but far enough away that you’re not dealing with constant traffic noise. I mean, couples are rating this location 8.2 out of 10, which tells you something. There’s free parking right on site too, which honestly saved me from the headache of hunting for street spots or paying those ridiculous downtown rates.

The Room Experience

My room was exactly what you’d expect from a well-run Comfort Inn — clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out. The bed was actually really good (I’m picky about mattresses), and the air conditioning worked perfectly during my summer visit. You know what I noticed? The little details were taken care of — fresh towels, decent water pressure, and blackout curtains that actually blocked out the light.

Nothing fancy, but everything you need for a solid night’s sleep. The furnishings are modern and durable, designed to withstand regular use while maintaining comfort. Each room includes essential amenities and thoughtful touches that enhance your stay without unnecessary frills.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast setup here is pretty impressive for a mid-range hotel. They’ve got both continental and buffet options, plus — and this was clutch for my early meeting — they offer breakfast to go. I grabbed a coffee and pastry on my way out one morning, and it was way better than I expected.

The buffet has the usual suspects but done well, and the coffee was strong enough to actually wake me up, which isn’t always a given at hotel breakfast spots. The restaurant area is welcoming and efficiently organized, making it easy to grab what you need before heading out for the day.

Why Guests Love It

After talking to the front desk staff, I learned something interesting — they have way more repeat guests than most other properties in the area. That makes total sense once you stay here. It’s the kind of place that delivers exactly what it promises without any surprises (good or bad).

The staff genuinely seems to care about making sure you’re comfortable, and there’s something to be said for that consistency. You’re not going to get blown away, but you’re also not going to be disappointed, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need when you’re traveling. This hotel represents reliable hospitality at its best.

Hotels near me in Ottawa deliver effortless LRT hops to festivals, riverfront bike paths, and heritage districts.
