pas de problème pour la nuit nous sommes allé par la gauche et tout au fond, un agent de sécurité est venu nous voir pour nous avertir que si on entendait des voitures vers 4-5h c'est normal car ce sont les employés de la monnaie royale du Canada. Seule la gratte nous a réveillé mais aucun problème jusqu'à notre départ à 9h.

Did not stay overnight, but had opportunity to drive by and check it out. It is not big rig friendly anymore as there is a gate at the end that is closed. you must be able to turn around in the width of a narrow street. Great for camper vans. not for motorhomes or trailers.

Slept one night and weren’t bothered. Nice spot along the road with view of the river and Gatineau side (there is currently a construction fence, but you still see very well). The National Gallery’s back access is at the end of this road, and when they are closed it will be hard for a big rig to turn around, since you can’t use their parking lot. There is a path on the left hand side of this gate/fence that is super useful; it brings you to the National Gallery and at the corner of Sussex/Murray, towards downtown.

Great spot downtown, very close to food ,shopping and parliament hill.
Abit of city noise but it to be expected with the location , a couple other RVs and lots of space

lorsque nous nous installons, une personne de la sécurité des bâtiments au dessus nous interpelle pour nous dite que nous pouvons rester sans soucis mais que souvent des jeunes viennent boire et mettre de la musique et que si il y a un problème il fallait pas hésiter à appeler la police.... OK... bon nous ne restons pas!!

Kids in cars with flashing lights partying and playing loud music all hours of the night. Very loud and obnoxious. Not a good spot to overnight. It was almost like they knew I was there because they spot in the earlier coming in and decided to come back in a passive aggressive way to harass me. And this is on a Wednesday night/Thursday morning…..

Good place close to Ottowa downtown to stay for a night. In the morning lot of cars arrive to park, but not to loud and no problems.

Nice quiet night stay right by Ottawa River. Busy during the day, plenty of parking spots at night. Weekend maybe busier. Saw one RV trailer parked in front of us.

Place de parking le long de la rivière.
Il y a une barrière mais elle comporte des trou pour aller à la rivière
Pas pire pour gratis

Once you enter this parking and go on the left side, there is a place to turn around for longer rigs. We then continued backwards to continue along the path. Lots of big free spaces. If you walk to the end of the path, on the left again, there is a small path between the bushes that brings you up on the street just between Mint Museum and Beaux-Arts Museum. Nice and quiet spot with great view over the bridges and river.

Une fois rentré dans le parking aller sur la gauche. Il y a un espace pour faire demi tour. Si vous continuez plus loin après il n'y en a plus... donc mieux vaut faire demi tour et continuer à s'enfoncer sur le chemin à reculons. Beaucoup de places libres. Tout au bout il y a plus de monde, les places sont occupées. En continuant à pied, il y a un petit sentier qui passe dans la végétation à gauche après le panneau, il mène à la partie supérieure avec un portillon. Ce petit sentier arrive entre le musée de la monnaie et le musée des beaux arts. Très belle vue sur le fleuve, spot très tranquille...
