“Nice hotel, great location”

Hotel de la Montagne

4 of 5 stars
Piscataway, NJ
Aug 19, 2008

Located in the northwest corner of Centre-ville (Downtown Montreal), the hotel has a great situation - it's just a few blocks walk to the Metro, the Musee des Beaux-Arts, and tons of shopping opportunities. There's a lot of activity within the hotel & environs, too... when I checked in after midnight on a Thursday, I could barely hear what Reception was saying over the din in the Cabaret bar, and there was a long line of people headed to the Terrace Magnetique bar on the roof. I was pleased upon arrival at my room that I couldn't hear any of it from there (actually, the simple sounds of a city were more intrusive than the party atmosphere above and below).

The halls were a little the worse for wear but the room itself was a good size and very clean and comfortable. Housekeeping did a great job and my interactions with reception were all positive. I couldn't get a feel for the doorman's hours (almost never seemed to be there). Had room service (chocolate mousse was very nice). The restaurant (serving breakfast buffet or ala carte, and lunch) was fine, prices reasonable, the staff very attentive. My advise for those interested in all the hubbub about the Terrace Magnetique would be to go up and have a drink with friends if you want - it's clearly a happening place to be for that purpose - but Please Do Not Eat There Under Any Circumstances. I popped up for a quick lunch one day just to get the atmosphere (and the view) and the caesar-salad-with-shrimp was simply horrid (both to see and taste). I still shudder at the memory.

So don't eat there - there are plenty of nice places in walking distance (including Cellini's across the street) - but for a really pleasant lodging experience, The Hotel de la Montagne is a good bet.

“Good Location -but you can find a better hotel”

Hotel de la Montagne

3 of 5 stars
Vermont
Aug 14, 2008

Stayed for 4 nights in July to celebrate our anniversary. Booked a contemporary king with balcony....just like the picture (supposedly) on hotels.com. What we got was a run of the mill room. Actually had a king sized bed with a "queen" sized headboard....and definitely not contemporary or updated as the pictures show.. The bathroom was good sized with a separate shower....the shower had a very inexpensive plastic showerhead and was fairly small. (also had a tub faucet about 8" off the floor of shower...for whatever reason.
The hotel needs to be updated....shows it's age from the 70's. The lobby is dated as well with velvet sofas heavy woods. The lounge on the 20th floor does a lot of business creating a long wait for the elevators on friday and saturday nights. The pool was supposedly on the same floor...went up twice but never found it....no one around to ask. Had cable TV but most were in french and picture quality wasn't very good. Had a trouser press and shoe shine machine in room which was nice. Ice had to be "bought" from the concierge at $2 a bucket plus a tip of course, not available to get yourself. Parking a little high at $15 a day...overall not bad....but not a 3 1/2 star hotel. By the way, tried to write a review at hotels.com.....they didn't put it online or respond...apparently they have a different agenda than tripadvisor.

    • Liked — Short walk from elevator and location of property
    • Disliked — dull drab room....needed updating and not what I expected or paid for.

“Fun hotel - excellent for a weekend getaway”

Hotel de la Montagne

3 of 5 stars
Boston, Massachusetts
Jul 20, 2008

We stayed at the Montagne for the first time in November. Staff was professional, friendly, and helpful. Rooms were large, with HUGE bathrooms. Location is great if you are looking for a night on the town, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for a quiet, romantic getaway unless you get an upper floor. I have heard that in the summer it can get pretty noisy.

Thursday's is a very good place if you're either single, or married, uninhibited, and you like to make an intimate friend for an interesting evening! But packed and frenetic.

Rooms were spotlessly clean. We didn't call on room service at all, so I can't comment on that aspect.

“First Montreal Stay”

Hotel de la Montagne

3 of 5 stars

1/1 found this review helpful

Arrived in Montreal for the first time and stayed at this hotel for two nights. Doorman was awaiting on arrival and was very helpful and friendly. Walked into the hotel and immediately had a smell .......not sure what it was maybe a little musty or something but was not very attractive. Older looking hotel in the inside. Was checked in fairly quickly. Stayed on the 12th floor. The room was very large in comparison to any other hotel.....Had a very comfortable King Size bed with a large bathroom also with seperate tub and walk in shower. Nothing wrong with the room but you definately have to like the style of the hotel. At night they arrived with some chocolates and bottled water. Two for one nights in the bar during happy hour ........very good deal indeed !! Never ate the hotel as behind it on the street over it is packed with outdoor patios and restaurants........packed. Nothing overly wrong with the hotel but don't think I would choose it again.

“Perfect Anniversary Getaway”

Hotel de la Montagne

4 of 5 stars
St. Catharines
Jun 8, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed for 6 nights including the evening of our anniversary in March. We arrived a day after the biggest snowstorm of the spring which made trekking around Montreal a challenge.

The hotel was beautiful and lives up to its impression as older and unique "boutique" accommodations. The location is perfect for a tourist – nestled between Rue Crescent and Rue St. Catharine – the best place to be for shopping and dining.

Our greeting was perfect; the door attendant welcomed us to Montreal and assisted us with parking and our bags. Parking at just $15 / day was a welcome surprise. A much lower rate than most big-city-downtown hotels we had stayed in. We got a great rate of just $99 / night on expedia for a room with king bed and balcony. The room was clean and lovely, cool marble bathroom tiles, a tub and shower, stocked mini bar and plenty of space to work (laptops come with on the trip). Access to wireless internet required a password from the front desk but was complimentary thru our stay.

The hotel was under some construction during our stay including renos on our floor. The hours of tool usage etc. was more than reasonable and even the contractors were friendly and courteous, allowing us to cross their path. We even had a peek at some incomplete hotel rooms which was fun.

The bar and lounge were welcome retreats. There were nightly piano and singing performances – a perfect end to a long cold day of sight seeing. The fountain of complimentary Clementines was also a treat.

Just one minor beef; we were asked kindly but often by the hotel staff (front desk, servers, door attendant, even a housekeeper) what brought us to Montreal. We answered each time that it was our first trip to the city and that we were there to celebrate our 6th Wedding Anniversary. After many congratulations and acknowledgements, I was surprised that the hotel made no additional gesture of our very special occasion. Having spent the better part of the last 2 decades as a hotel employee, I know it is both minor and nearly mandatory to send a bottle of wine, fruit plate or even just a quick greeting card to any guests celebrating a romantic occasion. It is that little something extra that makes you feel like everyone is listening and really appreciates your choice to stay.

Regardless – I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a trip to Montreal.
