Sonder Rideau is the perfect home away from home travel stays in the downtown core. Close to transit, the Rideau centre and Sparks street, it has a lot to offer.

Perfect stay. Nearby Parliment Hill, restaurants. The hotel has a small kitchen with all appliances, clean throughout. Enjoyed my stay. Recommend it to those travelling with family - cook own meals. Thank you most certainly come back.
