01

Parliament Views From Your Pillow

Fourteen of our suites face directly toward Parliament Hill, so the Peace Tower's illuminated clock face becomes your personal nightlight - a sight no other casino hotel in Ottawa can offer from this vantage point.

02

A Gaming Floor Born From Ottawa's Energy

Our casino spans 28,000 square feet across a single fluid level, meaning guests move from slot machine to table game without ever losing sight of the room's warm amber glow - a deliberate design choice that keeps the atmosphere social rather than labyrinthine.

03

Byward Market At Your Doorstep

Within a four-minute walk, guests step into Byward Market's weekend farmer stalls, artisan cheese counters, and the scent of fresh-baked beaver tails - a hyper-local advantage that no casino hotel farther from the core can honestly claim.

Accommodations

Rooms & Suites

Luxurious retreats crafted for the most discerning guests

The Rideau Loft Canal Panorama
★★★★★

The Rideau Loft

Warm brushed-oak floors stretch toward a wraparound window that frames the Rideau Canal in every season - silver with ice in January, jade green come July. A hand-stitched wool throw draped across the king bed is the first thing your fingers will find, and it may be the last thing you want to leave behind.

The Confederation Corner Room Heritage Brick Nook
★★★★★

The Confederation Corner Room

Compact in footprint but generous in feeling, this room tucks a reading nook with a tufted bench into the angled corner where two heritage-brick walls meet, creating the kind of snug enclosure that Ottawa's bitter February winds only make more appealing. The room's muted stone palette echoes the limestone facades of nearby Sparks Street, grounding you in the capital's particular brand of quiet grandeur.

Cuisine

Fine Dining

Executive Chef Marisol Tran builds her menus around the seasons of the Ottawa Valley, sourcing heritage-grain flour from a Lanark County mill and wild leeks from the Gatineau Hills each spring, so that the kitchen's output changes genuinely rather than cosmetically. The property's main dining room, Limestone & Thyme, seats eighty guests beneath a vaulted ceiling of reclaimed timber and offers a rotating tasting menu alongside à la carte signatures like slow-braised Quebec lamb shank with charred-leek purée and buckwheat crêpe soufflé finished tableside. Candlelight on raw linen and the measured pace of attentive service conspire to make dinner here feel less like a restaurant visit and more like a private occasion invented precisely for you and whoever sits across the table.

The Casino

Xeneri Hotelinsight's casino floor unfolds across 28,000 square feet of carefully lit space, housing over 340 slot machines and 42 live table games - including blackjack, baccarat, roulette, and poker - staffed around the clock by dealers who treat every hand as though the stakes are personal. The atmosphere is neither frenetic nor subdued; low-hanging amber pendants keep the light intimate while the collective murmur of the casino floor creates a living soundtrack that pulls you forward into the evening. Ottawa's diplomatic community, weekend visitors from Montréal and Toronto, and capital-region regulars alike find their way here, drawn by a casino experience that feels rooted in this particular city rather than transplanted from a generic resort corridor. For those stepping onto a casino floor for the first time, the open layout and approachable staff make the experience feel welcoming from the very first hand. Whether you are a seasoned player or a curious newcomer, this casino remains one of Ottawa's most talked-about evening destinations.

What Our Guests Say

★★★★★

"My partner and I drove up for our anniversary weekend specifically because we wanted a hotel where we could move from a beautiful dinner to the casino floor without ever stepping outside into the Ottawa cold. What genuinely surprised me was how calm the casino felt - warm lighting, attentive staff, and none of the sensory overload I'd expected. The casino here has a character that is very much its own - unhurried, warm, and genuinely Ottawa. By Sunday morning I was standing at the window watching the Rideau Canal glitter in the frost, thinking I hadn't wanted to leave a hotel room this badly in years."

Claire B. Toronto, Canada
★★★★★

"I was in Ottawa for a week of meetings near Parliament Hill and chose Xeneri Hotelinsight on a colleague's recommendation - the proximity to the Hill was the practical reason, but the casino became the personal one. I hadn't planned to spend an evening at the tables, yet the atmosphere of the casino floor drew me in on my second night and kept me there for three hours that felt like forty minutes. The Gatineau Suite I'd booked had a view I genuinely struggled to photograph in a way that did it justice."

James F. London, United Kingdom
★★★★★

"I came for a bachelorette weekend with five friends and we needed somewhere that offered a real casino experience alongside proper accommodation - not a roadside gaming hall. Limestone & Thyme handled a dinner for the six of us with the kind of care that made each course feel like a small event, and then the casino floor gave us somewhere to take the evening that felt genuinely exciting rather than obligatory. Ottawa surprised all of us; the city has a confidence after dark that I don't think we'd expected, and this hotel captures it."

Welcome

Xeneri Hotelinsight

Xeneri Hotelinsight stands apart in Ottawa's landscape by marrying genuinely intimate guest rooms with a full live casino floor and a dining room that treats every meal as an occasion worth remembering. The casino is woven into the property's identity as naturally as the Rideau Canal is woven into Ottawa's. Rooted in the Byward Market neighbourhood - where the cobblestone energy of the city's oldest market mingles with the solemnity of the national capital - this property draws its character from Ottawa itself, not from a distant design handbook. We promise you the rare feeling of being both completely at home and quietly dazzled, all at once.
