Hotels near Parc Desmarest, Montreal

It’s a little pricey for what you’re getting. If you don’t care if you’re in a Hilton or Marriott or want a swimming pool, we’d recommend staying closer to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts or Centre Bell as that’s where there are a ton of really good restaurants so dinner is easier to find. If you want to stay in a known hotel chain, there is a Holiday Inn and Comfort Inn in this area. Pros - complimentary continental breakfast for Diamond members - on site parking and there is an elevator that takes you to the lobby - swimming pool/gym floor has 2 nice outdoor balconies with view - spacious room - mini frig and microwave in the room (no need to request and no extra charge) - decently centrally located – kind of halfway between most of the major sights. Cons - hot tub broke the 2nd night - other guests were rude and loud especially at the pool - ice machines were broken on 3 consecutive floors (2 of them put the broken sign on the machine inside the room) - no view from room window - breakfast was pricey and not fully complimentary as stated on confirmation but instead a credit for C$36 per day or $C$18 per person per day (credit cannot be saved and carried over); if you use it wisely and just get that amount worth of food/coffee you should be ok because then it’s just a tip. If you aren’t wise, then you’re at the mercy of your waiter. Different staff treat the charges differently – one charged us C$64.68 (after the credit and before taxes) for breakfast for 4: one C$25.95 buffet, one C$16 two egg platter, 2 small chocolate croissants and some fruit, and oatmeal with bacon. When we asked for some fruit, the waitress offered a fruit platter – we didn’t know any better so we said ok and got a huge platter full of unripe melon. So we paid less for a huge dim sum than we did for an ok breakfast. -C$34.99 + taxes per day for on site parking which can be challenging. You first pull into a teeny drive in area and have to check in before you can get access to the parking lot. The parking spaces are very small and the driving lane turns are super tight. For C$387 a night at Hilton Garden Inn Montreal Centre-Ville, we’re going to try the DoubleTree by Hilton in Montreal before we stay here again.

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.

Very good location in downtown Montreal - close to the Palais des Congres and Chinatown. Property well maintained. Room was small, but fine for 1 or 2 people. Room includes a simple breakfast of cereal, breads, fruit and hard-boiled eggs. Parking is available for a fee, but is very limited.

I usually don't write good reviews, but because of its value for money, I feel I must write about this hotel. For a relatively developed city like Mandikeng, the hotel only costs 100 knives (excluding tax). I don’t seem to have found anything so cheap near this hotel. But it's cheap, and the service, environment and location are not bad. In terms of service, if you speak English at the front desk, you will not be discriminated against and are very welcoming. The decoration of the room environment may be a bit old, but it is definitely clean and hygienic and does not affect use. The room is large and equipped with a fully functional kitchen and tableware. The soundproofing of the room was also very good, at least I didn't hear anything from other rooms at any time. The location is right in the city center, very close to attractions and Chinatown, and most attractions are within walking distance. Disadvantages: There is a fee for parking, which is 35 dollars per day (likely). At that time, I didn’t know if one of the elevators was broken. When there was only one elevator, I often had to wait for a long time.

The hotel is in a great location, close to the subway station, Chinatown and City Hall. The front desk staff is friendly and the room is clean and quiet. The disadvantage is that the infrastructure is old and toothpaste, toothbrush and slippers are not provided. In short, the hotel is very cost-effective.

First, Hilton-branded hotels are my chain of choice and I am also a Diamond Member and have been for years. We chose the Hampton Inn Downtown Montreal due to its location; close to Old Montreal, Chinatown, the shopping district, and restaurants. At check-in the customary ”thank you for being an Honors Member” was not mentioned though not a big deal! As a Diamond Member I asked about the comp upgrade if available. I was told by the agent at the front desk that there were no upgrades available and that I was in a room with a ”couch”! Not sure what the 1 ½ person couch would do but whatever. We arrived at our room, our small room. We were on a 7-day trip to cold climates with outdoor events therefore we had a lot of baggage - nowhere to put it all in the room. From the room, I dialed ”0” and asked if we could please be assigned another room. The person on the phone said ”yes, of course, we will put you in a suite!”. (See above, front desk agent, no suites available.) We arrived to a large suite with great amenities - full kitchen and appliances, corner room, lots of room, etc. The downside, the floors were a mess - I mentioned it but never heard back. We used a damp towel and cleaned the entire room ourselves. Oh, the towel, it wasn't healthy looking after that. The runner carpets at the bed were no better. I door parking was great BUT it's where all the ********* smokers gather though there's no indoor smoking in any of the building. BTW - note that ********* is TOTALLY legal in Canada so that was not the issue - smoking inside was the issue. So, great location, nice property, attention to detail and Hilton Honors members is very lacking and a front desk agent who got caught in a little lie!

Our stay at Le Roberval was great. Very convenient location for our travels with food options nearby. Great attentive service from the staff team and most importantly our room was clean and spacious- very comfortable pillows and mattress- and a sports package on tv too!

I don’t see a lot of reviews here so i figured i must chime in to make sure travellers take notice of this hotel. We stayed for a total of 2 nights at this place. Initially it was suppose to be a one night stop on our way back to Toronto, but because of the very good value, comfort and service that we received, we then decided to stay for another night ( we were gonna stay for 3 but the province dropped the hammer on NYE restrictions). The Good : Friendly staff, In room IMac, 50 inch Smart TV with Netflix and other streaming apps, Free Parking ( Very secured) Free breakfast (+1 for the croissants). Free hot drinks 24/7. Walking distance to a mall. The Not so good: 5-10 mins walk to Metro ( but thats nothing to us). The Very Good: They cleaned our room! A service we miss from all the hotels we stayed at the last 2 years. This will be our go to hotel next time we visit Montreal. Keep it up Le Dauphin Longueuil!

We stayed at the hotel October 14-15, 2023. The hotel experienced a power outage that resulted in us not having power for 13 of the 16 hours we were guests. The power went out at ~10pm when we were still awake, we woke up at midnight because our room was very warm due to the air condition being out as a result of the power still being out. When we spoke with the front desk staff, the staff member did not share our concern and said someone would be coming in the morning to deal with an electrical issue. We explained since the outage was localized to our side of the hotel on the first floor, we thought the problem was a breaker that literally just needed to be switched off and on again. We were told no staff member on site had a key to the breaker room, which is a concern in case of emergency. We felt like we were held hostage in our room because the staff member also told us that if we left the room locked (we'd propped the door open to go talk to them), we might not be able to get back in, since there's no manual way to open the door if the key pad is not working. We couldn't leave because we couldn't pack in the dark. We also couldn't do anything in our room due to the power outage and were unable to sleep because the room was so hot without A.C., we sat in the dark for hours. Finally, the breakfast at the hotel was awful. The dishes were dirty, the cream for the coffee expired and became all chunky when poured in, and my wife got sick from what she ate. When we explained the above at checkout, we were informed that the front desk staff couldn't do anything about the above issues and were unable to compensate us for the very poor experience. The staff took no initiative at all to try and contact a manager or come up with any solutions. When we asked to speak to a manager, they took our information and told us that management would reach out. No manger contacted us, despite our repeated attempts to contact them by phone and email. We reached out to both the Sales Manager (Sabra) and the General Manager (Lucie Bergeron) repeatedly, as well as the general email for the hotel and received no reply. Over two months later, through our persistence, we were put through to Sabra Rezigue who was quite rude and was in a hurry to get us off the phone. Sabra said that our multiple emails had ended up in her spam folder and she did not receive them (despite our cc'ing multiple emails at the hotel). She did not have any good explanation for staff that were successfully emailed not making any attempt to contact us back or forward our complaint to a manager. She attempted to blame Hydro Quebec for the power outage despite our explaining that the problem was only in our wing of the hotel and the rest of the hotel had power. Ultimately, Sabra told us that she had to deal with another client and cut the call short. We were not contacted by Sabra again despite her assurance that she would get back to us same day and were only compensated a refund of half t

To be fair to Marriott I have to mention that the first night we stayed a bus hit a high power electrical tower and took out the power in the section the hotel was situated. This happened at approx. 10:30pm. The hotel lost power immediately. We were without power or running water in the hotel till 5:00pm the following day. At no point during this time did the hotel staff offer any assistance. Since we were on vacation we made the best of it. Used our own bottled water to bath and clean up and did the tourist thing for the day. We returned at 5:00 pm as the power was returning, so we decided to stay the second night as planned. It was 25.5 degrees Celsius (77.9 Fahrenheit) in the room according to the thermostat. We gave it 2 hrs it never moved. As I was going down to the lobby to inquire about the room a/c I ran into a woman on my floor. She inquired if I was experiencing the elevated temperature in my room as she was. At the lobby I was joined by her husband. We were told it would take some time for the a/c to cool our rooms, yet both of us made mention on how the lobby was done right frigid. Obviously the hotel wanted to give guest checking in the illusion that everything was all right. The front desk attendant went into a back room which I find hard to believe would hold the controls for the ventilation system, handed us each a 7 in. fan and told us he had made adjustments and it should get better. He also explained how to set the thermostat to hold a lower temp. It was 28 degrees Celsius (82.4 Fahrenheit) in our room when we left the next morning. Upon check out in a still cold lobby I mentioned my disappointment with my room and was blown off by the front desk attendant. I was then charged full price for both days. Obviously the Marriott is more concerned about the bottom line then the comfort of their guest. I personally will never stay in another Marriott hotel ever again. There are too many other choices out there.
