Review from David L.
If only all hotels could be this quiet.....
I took friends from the UK and sadly only had one night with them. We drove up from Woodstock VT where I co-own the Woodstocker inn...so I'm picky...and yet again the Gault came up trumps!
I managed with the help of the door man to get the only free parking spot right outside of the hotel, and then found they had been kind enough to give me an upgraded room with a large tub....which was right up my alley as I love to sit in the bath!
Again the place was quiet and this time I had a vibrating king bed....shame I had no one to share it with! So I was happy...and they make a bloody good cuppa.....
I will return with someone next time as those vibrations need sharing!!!! -
Review from Paula A.
Loved Hotel Gault! the location was great, walkable to incredible restaurants, etc., the staff was amazingly sweet/knowledgeable/helpful/friendly. the room was urban-hipster-chic, the bed super comfy, linens/sheets were high quality, flat-screen TV, iPod docking & big windows added to the "boutique" feel. Once you shut your door, it was very quiet - no noisy neighbors/etc., & we were right across from the elevator.
I should mention, you best be tight with your travel companion b/c the loft-like set-up means there is virtually NO privacy while you're showering (glass shower is basically IN the room with a very sheer curtain separating the sleeping area. it didn't bother me, but i could see how some may not like being "on-display" & may appreciate a bit more privacy -- depending on who you're with ;-)Listed in: O' Canada....

Review from Viv C.
Hotel Gault is by far the best boutique hotel I've ever stayed in. The service there was unbeatable. The moment I walked into the hotel, the staff already knew my name and that I had requested an early check in and late check out.
They offered me a complimentary drink in their lobby bar/restaurant while they went upstairs to check the hotel room.
The room itself was beautiful with high ceilings. Free wi-fi and cute location in old Montreal. I'd come back next time I go to Montreal. -
Review from Christy Kai I.
Exquisite hotel located in Vieux (old) Montreal.
The exterior is very historic although, the interiors are ultra hip.
I absolutely loved the stained concrete throughout..
... and the rooms are incredibly spacious, not to mention plush!
If you're not planning on having a driver/cabby, everything is in
close proximity of walking distance.
Intimate lobby is filled with visually appealing magazines.
Complete pleasure! -
Review from Erin B.
I stayed here a little while back for a three day visit to Montreal and it stands out as the best hotel experience I've ever had.
The staff were accommodating, helpful, and went well above and beyond. Not only did they make last minute reservations, offer (excellent) restaurant recommendations, and help us navigate the metro... When we told them that we were on a hunt for amazing and unusual bottled beer to bring back to Ontario, they got busy on the internet trying to find the best place in town for us to search.
The location is great, in the heart of old Montreal (and my room had two big floor to ceiling windows that I could open and gaze out). The building is lovely, our room was immaculate, comfortable, clean, and creatively decorated, which is such a nice treat in a ritzy hotel. I adored every minute of my stay here. -
Review from Matthew N.
Hotel Gault is amazing. From the moment we arrived until we left, we received great advice and assistance with all of our inquiries. We stayed in a jr. suite and it was a beautiful room.

Review from Joe J.
Hotel Gault has a great location in Old Montreal (a five minute walk to the Square - Victoria Metro station). The building is elegant on the outside and contemporary/hip on the inside. The lobby is quite stark with a concrete floor and modern furniture. This contrasts with the warm and effusive staff members who are the antithesis of aloof hipsterness. They are full of local tips and genuinely show hospitality.
The rooms are contemporary/hip, as well. This means concrete flooring with some short carpet and a flooring that looks like a modern woven plastic placemat, modern furniture, a futon style bed, and no cabinetry (wheeled shelving units). It can be a bit
too clever: poor lighting, bathroom ergonomics that are troublesome, and a generally messy look. Housekeeping keeps the room clean, but is a bit lax on some details like glassware and tidying the place up.
Breakfast is served in the lobby. Included in our room rate was a continental breakfast. Even though the place was generally empty, the service was excruciating slow, given that no cooking was required. We would have complained were it not for the delightful servers who always displayed a bit of quirky Franglish humor. The breakfast, itself was just fine.
The room rates are pretty high, Montreal is not an inexpensive city. Stay there if you are looking for a design-oriented place and are willing to overlook some inconveniences. The staff will charm you. -
Review from Rachel G.
Phenomenal hotel! The service was impeccable, and the hotel itself was super cool inside. Very sleek and modern, but it didn't feel cold like that type of design can be sometimes. The room included breakfast, which was very tasty, and they hosted a complimentary cocktail hour. Also, the value for what we got was incredible - penthouse suite for about $230 a night USD. Great location, too - it's in Old Montréal, which is lovely to walk around, and not far at all from the subway to get around town.
To date, still one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in, and I will absolutely be back whenever I'm in Montréal next. -
Review from Betty D.
Toronto, ON
THE STAFF:
Friendly and able to suggest restaurants in the area. Helpful also with giving directions and obtaining a taxi for you.
THE ROOM:
Spacious. Stylish. Comfortable.
THE BED:
Huge. Comfortable. Nice sheets.
THE BATHROOM:
Gigantic tub. Separate shower. HEATED FLOORS which I never thought mattered but now I know they are heavenly.
THE PRICE:
Good value for your money. They also seem to have deals if you call them up.
THE FOOD: I had lovely crepes and eggs benedict w/ smoked salmon for breakfast. It was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had.
THE LOCATION: It is quite close to the subway and as mentioned the staff will help you with directions. Old montreal is a nice looking place, and it's a short / cheap cab ride to other parts of montreal if you don't want to take the subway. (Though you should, because it's easy and fast.)
I would never stay anywhere else. -
Review from Joy H.
my partner & i stayed here about a year ago for two nights. it was great. i really liked the decor, both in the lobby area & rooms. i liked the loft-layout, too, and it was different the way the bed was kinda in the middle of the room. the service was great too. the only drawback is that part of town is pretty dead late at night -- that's good for having peace & quiet and getting a good night's rest, but when we wanted a late bite to eat, there were very limited options. maybe there's more options there now... we were there summer 2010. i'd totally go back.
