LHotel Montreal

L’hotel on Rue Saint-Jacques is a very special hotel near the Basilica Notre-Dame. My room was very comfortable, spacious and clean. The wonderful modern art including Andy Warhol prints in lobby and throughout was so much fun. And the staff were very kind and professional.

Cute artsy hotel, staff were friendly and can’t beat the location due to being near all of the touristy stuff and downtown. They have a small breakfast with croissants, coffee and juice. Bed was comfortable, shower was good. Clean hotel. The only issue we had was there was some people yelling and noises outside the window at night and people slamming doors in the middle of the night which was beyond their control. Overall a good experience staying here.

The hotel had the old world charm we were expecting and is located in Old Montreal which we wanted. The staff were friendly ( especially the valets...of course ) but sometimes the main receptionist seemed a little indifferent. The few times we needed something, they responded in a timely fashion. They allowed us to switch rooms as the first room had a very firm bed and was much smaller ( even though the price was the same ). This hotel is not "accessible" ( not that we really needed that ) but it meant that our luggage had to be carried from the car up the entrance stairs to be placed on the dolly. The valet helped us on the way, a different valet did NOT offer to help us on the way out. The room had nice decor but the wifi was terrible, so I used my phone for internet. Bathroom was a good size and everything was clean and tidy. The gym was dissappointing. There was no fan, so it was kinda warm down there, it had a wood floor, so some exercises were impossible to do. It should have a rubber floor. Lastly, there were three recumbant bikes. I would suggest getting rid of two of them and adding some weights. All in all the experience was good, but not exceptional, especially considering the price.

The Fourth Star is Fading. Th e good: Very large rooms, with queen and double, arm chair, desk. Friendly front desk The not so good. Entrance carpet dirty and unswept; front desk has little knowledge of restaurants or local trips; restaurant and gift shop closed; sweepers “stored” in hallways ( multiple occasions). etc. The bad: Continental breakfast in a crowded bar. Prominent sign warns that guests are limited to “2 pastries and one juice”. (Hello Motel 6 !) Needed: a hard-charging GM.

The location couldn’t have been better, just a short walk from all the main attractions. The high ceilings in our room gave it a spacious, airy feel, and we really enjoyed the unique and fun art displayed throughout the hotel. The staff was warm, friendly, and always tried their best to accommodate our requests, making us feel welcomed and valued. However, a few things fell short of our expectations. The carpet in our room was very old, with visible stains and areas where it was pulling up. The bathroom also showed signs of wear, with old caulking around the tub and moldy spots. The faucet had a steady leak, which was a bit frustrating. Additionally, the towels and robes provided were frayed, with noticeable holes—something we wouldn’t expect from a hotel in this price range. We tried to grab drinks at the bar on our last night, but unfortunately, the staff seemed overwhelmed with other tasks and were unable to serve us due to understaffing.
