Our Perspective
How we see Promenade Seniors' Suites & Retirement Residence
There are many exceptional aspects of this retirement community, including the depth and variety of care offered, the cleanliness and newness of the residence and its suites, and the helpful, professional staff. Its unique location along the Ottawa River in the quiet suburb of Orleans makes the Promenade an exceptional offering for families searching for Ottawa seniors' care. For example, the serenity of the wooded courtyard, facing the river, adds an extra dimension of excellence to this community.
Situated in Chatelaine Village, close to the Ottawa River, you'll find this oasis of care. Like other Ottawa Region retirement communities by Alavida, the Promenade offers a superb senior living environment that includes exceptional memory care facilities and programs. Outside, you're steps away from the tranquil beauty of the Ottawa River greenspace, while inside there is a cozy, comfortable seniors' living space, and your own elegantly appointed private suite.
Suites feature contemporary, accessibility-friendly features like walk-in shower and slip-free flooring. Residents and family comment on the kind, compassionate staff, and the relief given by the staff's deep understanding of the needs of their aging loved one. The home-made dining has many residents raving about its charm and deliciousness.

"I've been living at the Promenade Senior Residence for about three and a half years now. It all started in June/ 2017... My daughter had to look for a Residence for me to live in, so since I was an old nurse I had started to work in a Residence where my Aunt was and loved. They made me the Activity Coordinator and I loved being there and talking about how good it was. So Cathy found one with the same benefits as I had bragged about…!
