“All around excellent!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2011

person found this review helpful

This was my boyfriend's first time to Canada and my first time being back to my native Ottawa in 3 years. The moment we got there, Trish made us feel welcome and at home immediately! Trish is a great person and makes it a very relaxing atmosphere. The room was perfect, and the bed the most comfortable I have slept in quite some time. The little things about the B&B made it worth smiling about (Which we did not find at other at B&B's! - simple amenities were there (washroom amenities, wifi, newspapers, water and coffee available anytime, DVD's, very tasty breakfast,and very friendly guests and hosts!). I'd definitely recommend to anyone coming to Ottawa. And, having grown up in Ottawa, you can't really get a better location - footsteps away to great restaurants, the canal, the Rideau centre.

“Our Best B&B Experience Ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The Radclyffe House Bed & Breakfast is the B&B experience at its best. First, the house itself is cozy, warm, and tastefully decorated. The parquet floors lend a particularly comfortable ambiance.

The rooms each have private baths that are well stocked with the basics. Wireless Internet is available throughout the house. A selection of delightful hard candies was in our room. There is also a small shared room with a coffee, tea and a tiny fridge.

Radclyffe's location is perfect. You are two blocks from the major bus line, two blocks from the main biking/walking park trail, and about 1km (1/2 mile) from grocery stores and two locations to rent bicycles.

Best of all, the breakfasts served by the charming proprietor are works of art that are almost too beautiful to eat. Trish takes enormous pride in producing delicious and satisfying breakfasts to suit any guest's dietary need or preference.

Trish also shares tips and tricks for making your stay in Ottawa most enjoyable.

This was absolutely our best B&B experience ever. We really hated to leave.

“Quaint house near the center of Ottawa”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Whenever possible, I like to stay within walking distance of what I want to see. Radclyffe House is nestled right in the middle of the Golden Triangle formed by Elgin Street on the west and the bend in the Rideau Canal on the east. It's a modest 3-story house probably built early in the last century - like many of its neighbors - from which one can easily walk to the canal or Ottawa Universtiy, for example, or access the abundance of restaurants along the Elgin St corridor. Downtown and Parliament are only about a mile away. Trish gets you off to a good start with an original breakfast creation every morning, as well as offering you great tips about the city. Check out the Lieutenant's Pump Pub on the corner!

Room Tip: The Cohen Suite covers the entire third floor

“Excellent B&B in great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011

Just returned from 2 nights at Radclyffe House, and I plan to return on my next visit to Ottawa. Trish made me feel welcome immediately. The house is immaculately clean. Bathrooms appear to have been recently and tastefully updated. Good bedside lighting for those who like to read in bed, comfy mattress and bedding, and a fabulous breakfast each morning. An easy walk to downtown and cultural amenities. A great value!

“Wonderful B&B in the center of a wonderful city ...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2011

Located conveniently one block off Elgin St and within walking distance from Parliament, this B&B was a spectacular find. Trish was an amazing hostess, providing us with delicious breakfasts every morning, and always offering to help us find our way around the city. Kiglet, Chewy, and Sammy were also very entertaining! If you're looking for a comfortable, cozy place to stay in the heart of Ottawa, we definitely recommend Trish and Michelle's Radclyffe Inn!
