Hampton Inn by Hilton Montreal Downtown
The hotel was clean, although we didn’t get room service. And breakfast may benefit to have a bit more sitting places. Nice location, great front desk service and convenient parking

Hotel Chrome Montreal
Staff were nice enough. Room and furniture are very old and simple but room was clean and reasonably good for the price. Bed and 3 pillows were okay for this single male traveler, for the one night.
