Hotels near MEM - Centre des mémoires montréalaises, Montreal

Stayed here recently and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It looks dated but was very clean from reception throughout the remainder of the hotel. Room was exactly as described with a very comfortable bed and air conditioning. It's also in a great location in the Latin Quarter and there's a real bustle about the area with all the students in residence. It's about a 20 minute walk to the old port and old town which are both well worth a visit. If you are looking for somewhere in Montreal close to a lot of the city's attractions you would be in an ideal location staying here.

I'm a low maintenance traveller so my experience is probably going to be appreciated by people more like myself. The first thing I liked about this hotel was that it had a kitchen, which was great for eating leftovers or cooking cheap ramen. The second thing was the location was also great as it was walking distance to Saint Denis Street and St Catherine Street which comprises of many restaurants and bars. Both streets are also closed to vehicle traffic making them fully pedestrian-friendly. There's also grocery stores and banks. The hotel was also located perfectly next to a major subway station called Berri-UQAM where three lines converge, including the yellow line which goes directly to St. Helen's Island. The airport bus route 747 also stops at this major hub too which was perfect for me. The one con I did have was that the air conditioning is very loud. I personally don't use AC but my friend needed it, and it kept me up at night, so if you're the type of person that is a light sleeper that needs a colder room, bring ear plugs. It is an older hotel, but I honestly found it completely fine. I'm not sure if it's because I tend to seek lower-cost accommodations but this hotel didn't seem that old to me at all.

Great little place. Staff are excellent, helpful, kind, and also bilingual. The parking is underground and a decent continental breakfast is included. The rooms are a great size and include a kitchenette. My room had a balcony which was nice. The hotel is in a great location and easy to get to. There is 15 minute parking out front so you may unload your bags. The temperature runs a little warmer than I would like; however, in Canada, in the winter - I would rather be warm than cold! The rooms are clean and comfortable in addition to sizeable. I felt safe and secure travelling alone here and I always appreciate that. I would definitely come back!

We had an outstanding stay at Sonder Apollon in Montreal. The location was perfect, situated in a vibrant neighborhood with easy access to public transportation, shops, and restaurants. The modern design of the apartment was both stylish and functional, providing a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing environment. The space was impeccably clean and well-maintained, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, even though we didn't have time to cook. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches such as high-quality linens and toiletries. Check-in and check-out were seamless with Sonder’s efficient system, and the customer service was excellent. Whenever we had questions or needed assistance, the team was quick to respond and very helpful. Overall, our experience at Sonder Apollon was fantastic. It felt like a home away from home, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Montreal. We look forward to staying here again on our next trip to the city!

I recently had the opportunity to stay at the Omni Hotel in Montreal, Canada, and I must say that I was extremely disappointed with my experience. Several issues arose during my stay that greatly impacted my overall satisfaction. Firstly, the hotel's pool was not functioning, which was highly disappointing as it was one of the amenities I was looking forward to enjoying. This lack of functionality should have been communicated to guests in advance, as it played a significant role in my decision to book at this hotel. Moreover, the jacuzzi had a dirty appearance, which made it unappealing and unhygienic. I expected the hotel staff to ensure that such facilities were clean and well-maintained for guests to enjoy. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Another major drawback was the absence of smart TVs in the rooms. In this modern era of technology, it's becoming increasingly common for hotels to provide this feature as a basic amenity. Not having access to smart TV capabilities limited my entertainment options and left me feeling dissatisfied. Lastly, I was appalled to discover that my room had a strong cigarette odor. As a non-smoker, this was an unpleasant and uncomfortable environment to be in. I would have appreciated if the hotel had ensured that non-smoking rooms were truly smoke-free and maintained a clean and fresh ambiance. Considering the issues mentioned above, I cannot recommend the Omni Hotel in Montreal. The lack of a functioning pool, dirty jacuzzi, absence of smart TVs, internet connectivity problems, and the presence of cigarette odor in the rooms made for an unsatisfactory experience. I hope the management takes these concerns seriously and addresses them promptly to improve the overall quality of their guests' stay.

We stayed a couple of nights pre-cruise to acclimatise and enjoy Montreal in the early Summer. We had a pleasant stay, very personable staff and a decent room. Novotel fittings seem to lean toward minimalist scandi which can give an air of being sp****, but bedding was very comfortable. Additional pillows appeared on request. Breakfast was interesting, again possibly post-covid staffing issues as things took a while but the staff were again very engaging. Great location on Rue de la Montagne with easy access to public transit and taxis to the port. Definitely would stay here again.

Booking's efficient since you receive the code for the main door,and your room. ahead of arrival. The reception while on duty doesn't want to do much. We buzzed to enter during reception hours,and they asked if we had our code/does our code not work.We couldn't locate the reception to ask for a continental breakfast item,or toiletries during their available hours.While doing the latter, we met the owners who are really nice people.The boutique hotel does need work as it looks dilapidated in parts of the common area,while the room we had looked tired. wifi,no issue here as an extender was in the hall of our second floor. The bathroom had what appeared to be a blood smear at the exterior tub edge wall. Room blinds are sheer,with an uncovered upper window.With a west side room, this won't matter as much to someone who isn't easily awoken by light. The elevator works which is good when you have luggage beyond a backpack. Parking, the location needs to specify there's ONLY 4 spots,unless one can somehow drive on the sidewalk to park a sub compact closer to the left of the stairs when facing the building to get a fifth spot. A motorcycle will have no issue if a spot's available. Overnight,due to the location,it was peaceful.For the price,this isn't a first choice,but we booked last minute.

Positives first: the area felt safe, close, by car, to various restaurants and the Ikea store. Parking was convenient for our car and teardrop trailer. In walking distance, Boulangerie Ange offers amazing bread, sandwiches, quiches, desserts and more. The breakfast room in the lower level was busy but not too crowded. Coffee-meh, but served in real cups. The usual offerings of a hot buffet including the baked beans popular in Quebec. Absent were Yoghurt and peanut butter- cost cutting? The room was very clean and while the furnishings were dated they were very well maintained. The family owned chain is obviously investing in the property, making it more attractive for guests. Light sleepers may find the sound of the air conditioning annoying as it is extremely noisy. We finally turned it off. Toiletries and towels are basic and thin and the tissues dissolved on first blow! The price was reasonable though and overall I would stay again. Thank you to the friendly front desk staff who accommodated our request for a later checkout than their stated 11am.

There isn't anything near here except for the airport but it was nice being close to the airport for a good night's rest before flying out. The hotel would also be good for a business trip if you have to stay in the area and have a car. It does take about 20 to 30 minutes to get to the city from this hotel. The check in was quick and the hotel smells and looks clean. The room we stayed in needed a little help as the toilet paper holder was missing it's bar, the mini fridge was missing and the screw holes were quite visible and the some towels were quite frayed and in need of some replacement. The pool and hot tub were at a good temperature and there was lots of natural light in the area. There is a bathroom nearby which you can change in and the hotels are in the pool area. The TVs are pretty new but we couldn't find anything to watch so I would recommend bringing your own HDMI adapter. The hotel could do a better job for changeover of hotel rooms as the clocks showed the wrong time and the one went off unexpectedly at 6 am. There are better options in the city but if you are just going through Montreal or need a place near the airport this is a decent option for that and there is lots of parking.

Front on the highway side very noisy, at the rear probably less. Sheet metal bed base (don't hit it especially if someone is sleeping). Only one ice machine for the entire hotel. No milk or cream in the fridge for coffee. A few more small adjus**ents, new and clean hotel.
