Leisure & Tours

Guests can book hop-on-hop-off trolley bus tours to explore Parliament Hill, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Ottawa River rapids. The Changing of the Guard ceremony and evening sound-and-light shows on Parliament Hill are seasonal highlights.

Services & Extras

The inn provides concierge assistance for tour bookings and event tickets. Guests can arrange surprise gifts like Ontario wine and flower bouquets. McGee's Inn has been featured as a prize on 'Wheel of Fortune.' The property is named after John McGee, an early resident of Sandy Hill, a historic neighborhood near Ottawa's political and commercial center.

“What strikes me most is its commitment to blending historical charm with modern comforts, especially the private bathrooms equipped with luxurious whirlpool tubs and rain showers, a feature I value highly. The personalized service, from tailored breakfast options to the possibility of arranging special requests like wine and flowers, adds a layer of attentiveness often missing in larger establishments. Its location within walking distance of landmarks like Parliament Hill and ByWard Market seals the deal, making it a compelling choice for those seeking both convenience and character in Ottawa.”
