location is good

Stayed at Swiss Hotel Ottawa and it was a surprisingly frustrating experience. What started as a normal stay quickly turned uncomfortable due to poor communication and questionable handling of a situation that didn’t warrant escalation. Instead of resolving things professionally, the response felt abrupt and unnecessary, leaving a bad impression overall. Not the kind of hospitality you expect when booking a place to relax. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re looking for a smooth, hassle-free stay

The bedroom is small but clean. The only downside is shared washroom and shower room for the price I paid.

Its A Very Lovely , Quiet Little Hostel. Perfect Location, Very Warm And Safe. Sabina Was A Wonderful Person, She's The Owner Who Made Me Feel Welcome!

Nice quality in the heart of the city. Good hospitality

Good job

Beautiful property

Small but decent room. Nice place.

The accommodation itself was fine although old, but the smell inside was unbearable resembling that of urine. The surrounding streets are unfortunately lined with homeless which made me very uncomfortable walking.

Friendly staff and willingness to go the extra mile for their customers. Excellent location for walking to all of downtown attractions and food services.

An amazing and kind human being who runs the swiss and the barefoot. the room was extremely clean and tidy and the bed was super comfortable. Shower was lovely and whole house was homey and beautiful to stay in. Felt very comfortable, relaxed, well taken care of, and rejuvenated the whole stay. Thank you so much.

The host and the staff are wonderful. The place is very clean.

My stay at Barefoot Inn was wonderful! You check in at the Swiss hotel next door and the owner, Sabina was so wonderful! We have the same name so that was 😊! She is so friendly and lovely!! Barefoot Inn was really nice to stay in for two nights. It was clean, warm, colorful and inviting. Bed was comfortable. Sheets and pillows were really nice and very clean. Room was stocked with towels as was the bathroom. Kitchen has everything you'd need, cups, plates, coffee, tea, there is a TV in the living room downstairs. it's walking distance to many of the Embassies in Ottawa so if you are coming to do any kind of consular business like passport renewal it's perfect. I also walked to the Parliament hill, then over the Alexandra bridge to Gatineau,QC. So it's at a great location. All in all, a lovely place to stay in!

Great. AC was on high but only got to medium cold but all else was great.

From my last review everything is walkable in Rideau and OC Transpo buses and 1 line is there close. Very convenient quiet and chill

This barefoot inn and Swiss Hostel were the best stays ever, the bedding was nice the area was nice the owner and front desk was nice. Everything was nice and everything neatly laaid out. I can not wait to come back soon

We loved our stay so much, everything was very clean and organized. Sabina was wonderful to us, super attentive and welcoming. The place is very well located, close to everything, right in the center of Ottawa!

The weather was hot and humid and there was no A/C in the room, only a fan,which did not really help to make us comfortable.

Would stay again. It’s downtown so you get a minor drug issue, but basically lasts 2 blocks and then you’re in the beautiful downtown.

It is like a cocoon in the city. Safe, quiet and cleen. Unfortunatly, no propane in the bbq. Spider's web in corner.
