NAME
HI-Ottawa Jail

OPENING DATE
1973, one year after the closing of the Carleton County Gaol.




One of Ontario's Most Haunted Buildings


Originally functioning as a prison from 1862-1972 the HI-Ottawa Jail Hostel had a long history of mistreating its inmates before it became the comfortable and friendly hostel you see today – that’s 110-years’ worth of accumulation of disgruntled past residents who still insist on hanging
around!
