Marriott Ottawa unveils sweeping renovation to redefine luxury and guest experience

The comprehensive revamp, now underway, will refresh every facet of the hotel, from guest rooms and public spaces to meeting venues and amenities, ensuring it remains a premier destination for both business and leisure travellers.

Located in the heart of downtown Ottawa, the Marriott is just steps from Lyon Station and within proximity to key landmarks such as Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal, and Byward Market. This latest investment by Manga Hotel Group is designed to secure its reputation as a leader in the industry for years to come.

"Manga is excited to be investing in this cornerstone property in Ottawa and our goal is to provide an elevated and modern experience for guests," says Sukhdev Toor, president and CEO of Manga Hotel Group. "From the exterior, public spaces, guest rooms, meeting spaces, and amenities—we are leaving no area untouched."

The renovation will introduce sleek, contemporary bathrooms, multi-functional workspaces designed for productivity and comfort and upgraded public areas. Guests will continue to enjoy access to the hotel’s state-of-the-art health club with an indoor pool, as well as a family-friendly Kids Club and Games Room. Locally inspired gourmet dining options will also be part of the renewed experience.

The hotel’s 26 meeting and event spaces, including the panoramic Summit Room and the grand Victoria Ballroom, are receiving significant upgrades to further enhance their appeal as premier venues for conferences, corporate gatherings, and social events.

“Our vision is to seamlessly marry modern sophistication with the timeless charm our guests have come to love,” says Cole Sheridan, general manager of the hotel. “With thoughtful, innovative updates, we’re not just enhancing the experience—we’re creating an entirely elevated journey while minimizing any disruptions to our guests.”

Despite the scale of the renovation, Marriott Ottawa is committed to maintaining a seamless guest experience. Public spaces and amenities will remain fully operational, and efforts will be made to minimize disruptions to visitors.
