OTTAWA, ON — MAY 27, 2026 — Hillside Apartments offers a professionally managed, purpose-built student housing community designed to support academic success and everyday living near the University of Ottawa. Hillside offers a more urban, condo-style living experience in Ottawa, complementing other student housing options in the market.
 
Located in Ottawa’s Sandy Hill neighbourhood, Hillside provides fully furnished, student-focused housing in a modern, condo-inspired environment designed for how students live, study and connect.
 
As demand for student housing continues to grow, many students are still relying on traditional rentals that are not designed for student life, increasing interest in purpose-built options.

It’s about giving students a space where everything is in place so they can focus on their studies and make the most of living in Ottawa,” said Karin Doherty, Media Relations, Hillside.
