“The Fairmont Chateau Laurier's Gold experience places you steps from Parliament Hill in what feels like a castle, which I find worth the splurge. The executive lounge, especially the plentiful evening food and drink, seems designed to offset Ottawa's restaurant costs. While renovations may temporarily impact the Gold level's luster, the prime location and attentive service remain strong draws.”
