Ottawa Airport
Sleek, modern airport hotel done right — purpose-built for transit, not afterthought. Clean lines, warm palette, no unnecessary frills. The kind of place that takes the airport-hotel concept seriously.

Why It Matters
The only hotel with direct indoor terminal access at Ottawa International Airport (YOW). It's Germain Hotels' third airport hotel in Canada and the third location for their Sosta! Pizzeria brand. Being directly attached to the terminal makes it genuinely useful — not just conveniently nearby.
Germain Hotels' 20th Canadian property, opened April 23, 2026, and connected directly to Ottawa International Airport via a fully enclosed walkway. All 178 rooms are accessible without stepping outside regardless of weather. The design leans into the transit theme: sunny colors, travel-inspired accents, and carefully integrated greenery on the ground floor. Canadian-made beds and Bella Pella bath products are Alt Hotel hallmarks across the board.
Where You'll Stay
3 room types available
One King Bed
The standard king room — modern, bright, and purpose-built for travelers. Ergonomic workspace keeps it functional for business stays. No runway view, but quieter for those who'd rather not track flight movements overnight.
King
One King Bed with View
A modern, bright king room with direct runway views. Same smart layout as the standard king, but you're watching planes take off and land. Good for plane enthusiasts, odd if you'd prefer to sleep without tarmac activity outside.
King
Two Queen Beds
The spacious option — a brighter, larger layout with a dedicated work area. Works well for families, two colleagues sharing, or solo travelers who want more room to spread out.
