Hotel Information

IDEA is pleased to announce that we have contracted with two of Ottawa’s finest hotels—the Westin Ottawa and the Fairmont Château Laurier—to host attendees of IDEA2026 with special conference room rates.

Both properties are just a short walk from the Shaw Centre, and with their exceptional amenities and welcoming atmospheres, each offers a comfortable retreat to recharge and connect during a busy conference week.

The Westin Ottawa is a modern, upscale property that offers bright, spacious rooms and sweeping views of Parliament Hill and the Rideau Canal. With direct access to the Shaw Centre and the Rideau Centre shopping complex, it’s a perfect combination of convenience and contemporary comfort.

Just steps away, the Fairmont Château Laurier is one of Canada’s most iconic hotels. Known as “Ottawa’s Castle,” this historic landmark blends old-world grandeur with luxurious accommodations, making it a memorable place to experience the city’s culture and history.

Together, these hotels provide IDEA2026 participants with both choice and quality, ensuring a welcoming and rewarding stay.
