Why Guests Love This
Families staying at the hotel love Brewer Park because it solves the post-flight restlessness problem. Kids can run free across age-grouped playgrounds and dual splash pads while parents decompress on the Rideau River bank. In winter, the natural long-track speed skating oval — the only one of its kind in Eastern North America — is worth the visit alone. Free parking, free entry, and 14 minutes from the hotel.
