There is a good choice of B&B accommodation right in the centre of
Ottawa. Several are within walking distance of the Westin Hotel. Prices
are in the range of $55 to $80 CDN per night for a double room. I can
confidently recommend the first four on the list below, having stayed at
all of them.

>  This one's my #1 favorite: an Edwardian mansion on a quiet street,
>  about 15 minutes walk from the Westin Hotel. The landlady (Australian)
>  is museum-friendly. On one of my visits, the other residents were
>  Inuit artists, visiting from the Canadian Arctic for a show of their
>  stone sculptures. Don't plan on a quick breakfast. The dining room
>  has one long table and there's usually an eclectic bunch of
>  interesting guests.

Remember now, you'll be in Ottawa, so don't worry about walking about.
We all do it, and it's quite safe! There's a lot to see in the city
centre. The weather will be cool, possibly with some rain, but not below
freezing... yet.

Enjoy your stay!
