Those who book a meeting with at least 75 cumulative rooms during selected dates at this downtown Ottawa conference centre hotel will receive a brand-new iPad Mini. Their new iPad Mini will allow planners to download and use the new Marriott Red Coat™ Direct meeting services app. The free app, accessible from any web-enabled device, allows users to contact departments directly and discreetly -- before and during a meeting -- with requests including additional chairs and coffee and room-temperature adjustments. With the touch of a button, planners can keep things running smoothly without ever leaving the room or the meeting.

Set in the heart of the city, the hotel features 35,000 square feet of event space and 22 meeting rooms equipped with the latest technology. The Victoria Ballroom features a second-level gallery and can accommodate up to 600 guests, making it a great venue for conferences, conventions and galas. An expert events team works closely with groups to offer great rates and personalized features including a custom webpage and pre-arrival emails. Creative catering can transform any event with everything from afternoon coffee breaks to decadent sit-down dinners.
