I think everything was great. Already planning on coming back in November for another habs game. This places was super clean. The only thing I hated was the elevator. It seem static and lights kept flickering

The only thing we did not like was the fact that our room on the second floor was facing another wall of the hotel so we had no light into our room and could not take in the sights of the city. On the other hand we got to check-in before our regular time so that was a good thing and may have accounted for the room selection.

This hotel is an amazing place to stay for a getaway. The hotel is spacious. The rooms are spacious AND CLEAN!!!. If you expect it to be quiet on the streets of Montreal it isn’t. The staff are friendly and plenty of restaurants around. 5 minute walk to the bell centre!!! A MUST stay!

Excellent location but… Room was not clean, found a dirty sock on the floor and used soap in the shower. Told staff at 9 am, came back to our room at 1pm and it was still not cleaned. Reported again at 1:30pm to front desk, the room was cleaned but yet again the sock had not been moved. Doesn’t make you feel great about sleeping in the bed!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Pros: Staff was super friendly and helpful. It was a block away from rue Sainte-Catherine and plenty of restaurants around. Super convenient for location. Bell Center was a block away. Check in and check out was super easy and quick. Cons: The hotel definitely needs some upgrades but everything still worked fine. Things are dated and the elevators are so tiny. Fridge was also tiny, and bed was a bit uncomfortable. I didn’t care for the way we were treated by the parking garage attendants but that had nothing to do with the hotel staff as it’s separate companies. The parking is through a third party company in a garage behind the hotel. I did address it with the hotel and they were apologetic which brings me back to the pros regarding the staff being accommodating and friendly.

Front desk help was wonderful. Didn’t like that there is no parking, but it’s downtown so it’s a normal thing, I guess. What I didn’t like was the room size, it was about the size of a shoebox.

This hotel stay was just…sufficient. It is very dated and old so you can imagine how that impacts everything. The bed/bedding and front entry way were the worst off. Parking is not ideal. It’s a lot 1 block south, but can only get to it on the other side of the building making it more like 2 blocks. You can un/load in front of the hotel at least. If you plan to park and leave the car it’s $18/day. But we went out a few times to sight see and eat so paid $12 a handful of times over our 2 nights. It’s 1.5 blocks from the arena so that was the large pull to stay here. Was very walkable! The price point brings the associated company, mostly. Manage expectations and you’ll be fine.

Overall we had a good 4 night stay. The location was excellent for our planned events at the Bell Centre. The shopping centres were minutes away. The hotel is older with some nice renovations. The air conditioning unit in the window was loud when it was active. We had great housekeeping service. When we left for the day we’d come back to a made bed and clean towels/linens.
