Hotel Le Cantlie is an affordable accommodation near McGill University and Eaton Centre. The reasons we booked this property were the location, appealing price, and accommodation for 5 people in one suite. Our accommodation was clean and spacious.
Unfortunately at this price point there are some drawbacks- the elevators are old, small and slow, so there were very long waits during the early morning hours, check out hours, check in hours and evening hours. Because of this, families with strollers and wheelchair and walker users will struggle without an alternative. We were on the 8th floor and ended up using the stairs every day- not an option for those on the higher floors.
The pool… the poolside towels were not restocked throughout the day. After reaching the top floor, we’d have to wait for the elevator to go back down to our rooms to retrieve towels.
Check in and check out times were very slow with long lines and slow (but very polite) service at the front desk.
The pull out bed…. The supposed 5th sleeper… it was about 20 years old and the most uncomfortable sleeping surface we’ve ever encountered.
If you’re looking for a good location at a lower price point and have a lot of time and patience, this hotel will work for you.
