Close to all the places we wanted to visit. Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Room was comfortable and clean. We did follow the instructions to not replace our used towels but they were replaced anyway, so not so environmentally friendly in that way.

Liked: Staff & service
Pros: Simple place, simple service, not much guesswork. Good internet, good cleanup staff, and an easy to use safe for valuables(use the passcode option!). Cons: A bunch of small but NOTABLE annoyances--- - $10 'Sustainability Fee' that they charge PER NIGHT at the END of your stay - broken bath plug seal - dust on a fair few surfaces - coloured drip mark(?) on the front of the bathroom door - unintuitive car park door - little soundproofing on the door, could hear ravers at midnight despite them simply chatting

Shower head leaked making worse the low water pressure. Lighting in the room was sterile white. Only one elevator in service making wait times long and crowded. Staff were accommodating and polite.

Arc the Hotel is conveniently located in the heart of downtown, just minutes away from Parliament Hill, the O-Train (Parliament Station), Byward Market, the Rideau Centre, and City Hall. The staff is super helpful and friendly. I particularly enjoyed the lobby detox water (infused with lemon and lime) that was available in the lobby. My hotel room was adequate, although the air conditioner was a little loud. The bathroom was very clean, but the water at the sink had the tendency to splash everywhere, and initially there were some issues with the water not being hot enough in the shower (this was later corrected).

Cozy Boutique Hotel super close to Parliament Hill
Location is excellent. 10 min walk to Parliament Hill. Room was a little dark but there was enough lighting - not so much natural light. We were in 704 which is lane view and you look into an office building. The room had everything we needed including robes and slippers - A nice touch. The room was quite small but efficient and compact. A little outdated but still quite comfortable. The hvac needs to be updated and the fan is quite loud so we turned off the unit right before going to sleep. I used to send my corporate folks to this hotel and it is nice to be able to finally stay for myself. We brought Sparky our 14 yr old mini eskie and he seemed to be comfortable. There is a pet fee and also a parking charge in addition to hotel resort fees. Within a 5 min radius, there is SconeWitch, Tim Hortons, Subway, Circle K and a couple of restaurants. Convenient, does not break the bank and has everything you need.
