Ottawa Senators

Unlike most NHL arenas this one is in the middle of nowhere. not near Ottawa city center at all really so its best to drive but parking is expensive cos they know you have to park there. not a lot around that area too. a few shops but you should eat before getting to the area or pay for expensive concessions when you get in. box office doesn't open very early so its cutting it fine sometimes to pick up tickets there and then get in for puck drop especially if there's lots of people. views and sound of the crowd pretty good

We live nearby and saw the venue's construction and were so excited to visit. I entered through Seattle Center from the east entrance. With lots of clear signage and staff to help you, the venue is easy to navigate. A very welcoming atmosphere throughout. Would love to return for more hockey or a music event. The seats where we sat on 200 level were high and have a good angle for good views. a stunning panorama of the arena as a whole.

Sadly the usual high prices for beverages and food. It's very mean to charge $17 for a can of beer that you could easily get for $4 outside. Despite the fact that the Space Needle bar was a nice place to drink and not many people were paying the prices, I was at least relaxed while enjoying the overpriced beer.

We were in the 100 level seats and they were really comfortable especially for standard seats. I have been to other hockey venues were seating is really uncomfortable. We had good views of the game too as we were quite close to the ice but still in the higher up rows of the section. Game was good and there was lots of other entertainment going on in the breaks to keep the crowd going.

Food really good with lots of choices and you don't have to wait too long in queues or you could order from the seat if you wanted.

We drove to the arena and would recommend arriving early if doing this as you maybe be caught in traffic and might have to park far away. Also best not to bring any bags at all for quicker entry through security.

Saw an Oilers-Flames game here and the rivalry was epic. Arrive as early as possible especially for the Canada versus games to experience the atmosphere and hype pre-game. Food and drink expensive but then where isn't it?

Nice venue but not comfortable seating. Area of the city is alright and feels safe
