Le Square Phillips Hotel And Suites
Internet was great. The hotel was walkable to both shopping and the Bell Centre. Also a short Uber or medium walk to lots of sights and activities. Having a kitchenette was a great plus as well. We will stay here again.

L'Appartement Hotel
Older building - heat was not working properly to control from individual rooms — so when it was 10 degrees outside, we were sleeping with the window open about 3 inches to get cooler air in to make sleeping possible. Friendly staff, good breakfast.

Loved the pool! Breakfast staff was very friendly. Game room for little kids was so convenient and fun for them, but the game equipment and balls needs some refurbishing. Also good to be connected to the underground, metro, malls, train station, place bonaventure, REM, etc. Very enjoyable stay.

Breakfast was unexpectedly quite good. It was very close to the subway making it a great location to stay ...
