L'Appartement Hotel
Really enjoyed the stay here. Staff was great. Room was nice and clean. Nothing fancy but very welcoming. Like the fact there is a small kitchen with pretty much anything you need. Not to much of a walk to pretty much anything you need. Would definitely recommend.

Le Square Phillips Hotel And Suites
Excellent hotel- we had a large suite that was comfortable for a family of three and the hotel staff was kind, helpful, and friendly. The location is great and we absolutely would recommend!

Le Nouvel Hotel
Convenient located. Clean. Not sure about the wooden sliding door for the bathroom. It's a bit hard to use.

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
