The hotel is superbly located, within walking distance of some of the finest department stores, restaurants and shops in Montreal, plus a stone’s throw away from Mount Royal. The property itself is charming, but the rooms are in dire need of an update. Not only is the furniture dated and the carpet worn-out, wrinkled and damaged, but some AC units - if you ever need them in this predominately cold city - are incredibly noisy and ancient. I’m pretty sure that the AC control unit in our room is a few weeks away from qualifying as an antique. The staff was friendly, but their hospitality is hampered by the fact that they only have one valet that they share with the more modern Sens Hotel across the street, which is owned by the same company. Overall, a relatively good value-for-money hotel, with some big pros (location!) and cons. Also, no elevator!
