The Courtyard Ottawa East Is Honoured as a Top Performing Hotel on the World's Largest Travel Website

OTTAWA--(Marketwired - May 31, 2013) - The recently opened Courtyard Ottawa East may be the new kid on the block in terms of local hotels, but its team has proven it knows what it's doing. TripAdvisor recently awarded the hotel a prestigious Certificate of Excellence, an honour bestowed upon only the top-performing 10 percent of businesses worldwide in the hospitality industry.

"Courtyard Ottawa East is pleased to receive a Certificate of Excellence," said Franco Falcucci, General Manager at Courtyard Ottawa East. "We strive to offer our customers a genuine experience, and this accolade is evidence that our hard work is translating into positive reviews on TripAdvisor."

To earn a Certificate of Excellence, a business must maintain a rating of four or higher (out of five), as determined by reviews from TripAdvisor travellers. Businesses must also be listed on TripAdvisor's website for at least 12 months, and the number of reviews a property receives is taken into account as well. Of these, only the top 10 percent receive an award.

As one of the newest hotels in Ottawa, the Courtyard Ottawa East is already establishing a reputation for ensuring a productive and pleasurable stay. Its accommodations include 397 spacious rooms with flat-screen HD televisions, wet bars, mini-refrigerators and microwaves. Plus its on-property restaurant, The Bistro, serves up quick and healthy options for every meal, along with beer and wine in the evening.

Business travellers, meanwhile, appreciate the free parking and complimentary high-speed internet throughout the hotel, media pods in the lobby and the mobile desks in the guestrooms. This Ottawa Conference Centre hotel, however, is a powerhouse when it comes to meeting space: their attached conference centre boasts thirty seven meeting rooms occupying an impressive 43,000 square feet. Add to that the fact that the hotel is conveniently accessible to and from the airport, and you have a property that's downright irresistible. Just ask TripAdvisor.
