Family-friendly Hotels in Montreal

Quite disappointed with the room provided vis-a-vis what was reserved. Two double beds instead of two queens was a tight squeeze for our family. I fail to understand why this happened, particularly since the room was booked two months in advance of arrival & secured with a credit card. I was told the hotel was fully booked for the weekend so the issue could not be remedied. That said, our room was on the pool level which was kind of nice. The room was clean and included a small fridge plus a safe. There was also a steamer which was handy for touching up formal attire. The hallways seemed a bit dim & May benefit from an update. They were quiet, without echos, which was nice however. Finally, the Metro station can be easily accessed through the building which is a bonus! Based on overall experience, I would recommend this hotel. I may consider it for future trips to Montreal but might be a bit apprehensive based on the room switch which occurred.

We stayed over New Year's Eve and had a great view over the crowds gathering at the Christmas market. The room was clean and was as expected. The only downside of the hotel is that it's not very convenient to get to the exit, as you'll have to go through the mall first before reaching the lobby and then take another elevator up to the rooms.

We stayed at the Hotel Place d'Armes for four nights. We stayed there primarily because of its location. We were not disappointed. Right in the heart of Old Montreal, the hotel was perfectly located (across from the plaza of the same name) for what we wanted to see and do. In addition, it had a reputation as a nice upscale hotel that treated its guests well. We weren't disappointed there either. When we arrived by cab, Carl greeted us at the door, relieved us of luggage, and ushered us to Jolemie who checked us in and assigned us to a room (in building two) that was tastefully and comfortably furnished. She answered all our questions in a friendly manner and gave us tips about the area. Carl brought bags to our room, made sure we saw all the features, explained how things worked, and then left us to relax. The next day we met Sam, another staff member in the reception area, who answered more of our questions, gave suggestions about where to go, what to do, where to eat. These three individuals set the tone for our stay and made it a positive experience. But, let's be honest, no hotel is perfect so we did encounter a couple of glitches I should note. My wife and I are tea drinkers. While there was a coffeemaker in the room, there was no tea kettle or tea. There was coffee in the lobby, but there too, there was no hot water. Okay, we can live with that; we just went to a local cafe, but that meant going out a little earlier than we wanted to. The other thing was a bit strange. Saturday morning we asked the concierge to please make dinner reservations for us a particular popular restaurant. A few hours later we got a call from him that the restaurant was all booked up. But we went to the restaurant anyway thinking that there's always room for walk-ins even if we have to wait. We were right. There was room. And we didn't have to wait. We were seated immediately and enjoyed our meal. But, we have to ask, why wouldn't a knowledgeable concierge suggest just walking in. No matter. We still like Hotel Place d'Armes and would recommend it. Thank you Jolemie, Carl, and Sam..

There is no breakfast on the front desk floor. You can order a semi-buffet for 29.9 Canadian dollars. You can squeeze the orange juice yourself (you don’t have to doubt the freshness). It is worth recommending that the front desk is very patient. The room that was arranged at the beginning was very dark. Said that the line of sight is not good and uncomfortable, and then waited for three minutes to change to No. 1608 with a good line of sight, which happened to be able to see the scenic spot No. 67. The room is really big, the toiletries are very good, and there are no slippers in foreign countries. Everyone Prepare yourself in advance, the overall evaluation is really super comfortable.

Express hotel, average

The hotel was very central to all the place we wanted to be. It seemed like a 20 min walk to everywhere. Chinatown, Old Montreal, Waterfront, St Catherine street to city centre and the other way to The Gay Village. There are a lot of people that hang around in the streets around the hotel but it seems to be a big issue in Montreal in general. We never felt unsafe but we are from Toronto. The room was very quiet, clean and comfortable. We stayed in a Panoramic rooms so we had a corner and a lounge. The rooms with just the beds are very small, it was nice having the extra space. They did not clean the rooms due to Covid which was fine but there is no where to dry a towel so we had to be creative. The bed was comfortable thought because it was not fully made up each day it got to be a bit of a mess and was harder to fix. The AC in the bedroom blows right on your head! The Lobby smelled wonderful and was clean and the staff were pleasant and helpful. All in all great place and we would stay again.

This Hotel turned out to be the best hotel experience we have had! The decor of the hotel is just amazing, the most beautiful woodwork I have ever seen, with other areas being beautifully modern! From the minute we walked in we were taken care of! Our car, our bags and check in were so easy, front desk was excellent! The room was immaculate, very comfortable and a beautiful high end bathroom! The gym is all new equipment and perfect for a workout! Bar George is a great lively bar! We had brunch and lunch in the Bar during our stay and it was delicious! We also ate at the Restaurant and it was an amazing dining experience! They just don't make French food like this anymore!! HUGE compliments to the kitchen!! There was not one staff member that wasn't helpful and so pleasant!! My husband and I agreed that we would go back to Montreal just to stay in this hotel and to dine here again!!

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Old Montreal. The service and staff were great and we felt very much looked after during our stay. I would recommend this hotel for anyone wanting to walk around and explore the city as it is located in the middle of pedestrian friendly streets and there is so much to see and do and new adventures around ever corner. We are looking forward to returning very soon.

I love this hotel nestled in the heart of Old Montréal and Old Port. I had a great room with a wonderful corner view of Old Montréal, it’s rooftops, the Grande Roue and the little cafes and boutiques below. Room is very comfortable. I love the long modern working desk, the comfy lounge chair, plush bedding and above all the spa multi jet shower… Because of pandemic restrictions most of the amenities of the hotel were not accessible. The hotel has such a nice lounge and bar area but I couldn’t go there. The gym was also off limits. There is an outdoor courtyard that was advertised as open even in the winter with fire pits but it wasn’t accessible during my stay. My only complaint would be that my room was drafty but I also stayed on one of the coldest weekends of the year and I could adjust the heat in the room. I asked for a throw blanket to cuddle in while reading in the lounge chair. They brought me the cuddliest faux fur blanket, I was almost thankful for the draft. Can’t wait for my next opportunity to stay here. In my opinion, this hotel is more geared towards adults (solo/business/couples/adult getaways) rather than families with young children. It has a high-end, modern, chic vibe. However, I’m quite sure they would accommodate children too. Photos don’t do the view justice. They were taken during a snow storm with poor visibility. Under normal conditions, was really nice and at night, so beautiful with all the lights and illuminated Grande Roue.

Very good hotel, breakfast is also very good, very enjoy the hotel's service. There are many historic buildings on the street, and it is very convenient to travel. It is a very pleasant trip.
