Sorry for the late response. We stayed at a Downtown Ottawa Hotel and walked everywhere. There are several parking garages throughout downtown Ottawa, including at the Rideau Centre, where you can park for the day. Recommend walking and leaving your car in a garage for the day. The City is walkable, but traffic can be hectic and parking expensive, if you continually move your car.
Q:
Is the Bytown Museum accessible for handicapped visitors? Is there an elevator for the 2nd and 3rd floors?
A:
I think I saw a lift but I don't know how far it went
