Tourists and guests will have another option to stay when visiting Ottawa this spring.
The new AC Hotel by Marriott Ottawa Downtown is set to open on Rideau Street on April 24.
The 159-room hotel includes a pool, sauna, gym, five “naturally lit meeting rooms” and the AC Kitchen serving a “refined European-inspired breakfast.” There will also be EV charging stations.
“This hotel truly embodies what AC Hotels are celebrated for—sophisticated style, intuitive service, and seamless guest experiences,” Stéphane Pelletier, Regional General Manager of RIMAP Hospitality Inc., said in a statement. “We’ve curated every element to create a refreshing, productive, and inspiring visit, and we’re proud to bring this elevated hospitality experience to Ottawa.”
This is the first of three Marriott-branded hotel projects opening in Ottawa over the next two years, with the Moxy Ottawa downtown opening in early 2026 and a Renaissance Hotel set to open in 2027.
The new Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Ottawa at the Rideau Carleton Raceway is also set to open this year. The hotel will have 150 rooms, including 22 suites, expanded gaming floor with 1,500 slot machines and 10 restaurants, bars and lounges. There will also be an 1,800-seat Hard Rock Live theatre.
