Nestled at the junction of three picturesque rivers, Ottawa is considered by many to be one of the world's most beautiful capitals. The city is in Ontario but borders the province of Québec, creating a dynamic cultural milieu in which both French and English cultures are deeply rooted. The result is a truly cosmopolitan experience - a North American city with a distinctly European charm and flair.

The city's rich ethnic diversity also includes thriving German, Lebanese, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Portuguese, and Asian communities, among others. The seat of Canada's federal government, Ottawa is a major centre for the visual and performing arts, including the National Arts Centre, the Great Canadian Theatre Company, night clubs, restaurants, shopping - all within walking distance of the Ottawa Westin.

Ottawa presents visitors with a wide selection of sightseeing and leisure options. In fact, with more than a dozen national museums and galleries, Canada's Capital Region has something for everyone.

The Westin Ottawa features attentive guest service. The hotel's spacious, beautifully appointed guest rooms boast floor-to-ceiling windows offering unparalleled views of the Rideau Canal, Parliament Hill, and historic Byward Market. Connected to the Rideau Centre Shopping Plaza, the location is second to none in downtown Ottawa.
