Escape, mins from Airport, EY Centre, Casino, Golf Overview

First Impressions

Look, I’ll be honest — when I first saw the name Escape, mins from Airport, EY Centre, Casino, Golf, I thought it was one of those generic chain places that tries too hard to sound appealing. But you know what? Sometimes the straightforward approach actually works. This three-star spot in Ottawa doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not, and that’s exactly why it surprised me in the best way possible.

Location That Actually Delivers

The address on High Road might not sound glamorous, but here’s what matters — everything they promise in that lengthy name is genuinely close by. I mean, when you can roll out of bed and be at the airport in minutes, or hit the casino for a quick evening out, that’s pretty solid. The golf courses in the area are decent too, though I’d recommend checking which ones are actually worth your time if you’re serious about your game. What really struck me was how couples seem to gravitate toward this place — there’s something about the setup that just works for romantic getaways.

The Room Experience

My room was clean and functional — not fancy, but honestly, that’s fine for a three-star property. The beds are comfortable enough that I actually slept well (which doesn’t always happen when I travel), and there’s decent space to spread out your stuff. The Wi-Fi works properly, which sounds basic but you’d be surprised how many places mess that up. I appreciated that they didn’t try to cram too much into the space — sometimes simple is better than cluttered.

Practical Perks

Here’s where this place really shines — the little things that make your stay easier. Parking is straightforward and you don’t have to worry about circling the block looking for a spot. The staff actually knows the area well, so when I asked about decent places to grab dinner nearby, they gave me real recommendations instead of just pointing to the hotel restaurant. Speaking of which, the on-site dining is perfectly adequate — nothing that’ll blow your mind, but solid enough if you don’t feel like venturing out.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.2 rating isn’t just a fluke — this place delivers on its promises without any pretense. It’s the kind of spot where you check in, everything works the way it should, and you can focus on whatever brought you to Ottawa in the first place. Whether you’re here for business near the EY Centre, catching an early flight, or just want a reliable base for exploring the city, it gets the job done. The fact that couples rate it so highly tells you something about the atmosphere — it’s peaceful without being boring, and practical without feeling sterile. Sometimes that’s exactly what you need.
