7 reviews for Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel
All Reviews
Oh. My. Goodness.
After our first visit to the wonderful Saint Sulpice in February of 2008, we had to return in March of 2009. This delicious boutique hotel lives along Rue Saint Sulpice, right down the street from Notre-Damn.
When you walk into the lobby it smells of wonderful L'Occitane lotions and soaps (which they provide you with in your beautiful hotel room).
Truly, I can't say enough good things about this place. The 'S' Restaurant is amazing from the food to the wine. It was here that my boyfriend and I discovered Torbreck Juveniles wine ... oh so good.
They also had a complimentary breakfast bar every morning and they had a large selection to choose from. I cant wait to go back!!!!
Great boutique hotel in Old Montreal. Today (June 25) is a provincial holiday and looks like we are in the a great location for the festivities.
The hotel has large rooms, suites actually, with 2 true HD TV's, comfortable beds and a great restaurant.
Great hotel. Clean rooms (including carpet, contrary to what we saw on trip advisor). One lady at the front desk on check in seemed slightly rude; but otherwise we have been treated extremely well, by uniformly polite people. The suite (deluxe) is beautiful and quiet. We have dogs, who feel totally at home here. The cleaning staff so far have accommodated our schedule. All in all, nice hotel.
A lovely hotel in an ideal location. A couple of problems marred the perfection, though.
1) The bed in our room was a Murphy-style bed that could fold into the wall. Ideal for business meetings, not so ideal for us on our romantic child-free getaway. The mattress was like a futon to sleep on, really hard and uncomfortable.
2) The "free wi-fi" in the room did not work well at all, and the business center had only ONE computer, which meant that there was nearly always a wait for me to get on and see what Yelpers recommended.
On the plus side, the complimentary breakfast buffet was great, I had croissants and brie every morning. Some of the desk staff was helpful, others either knew nothing or spoke little English.
After staying in a boutique hotel like the Saint Sulpice, it's hard to ever imagine staying in a Hilton/Marriot/Chain ever again! From the moment the valet took our car to the multitude of questions we asked during our stay, to genuinely polite service at every turn, this hotel made our visit to Montreal feel like home--with a maid, butler and ever-knowledgeable concierge.
A word about the concierge. Being a yelper and a somewhat anal do-it-myself planning kind of person, I've never really utilized the help of the concierge during my vacations. I plan things myself and I find things to do on my own by conducting some pre-trip research. My boyfriend insisted that we "play it by ear" (a scary prospect) and so I did not look anything up. We simply asked the concierge for recommendations...and they were spot on every time!! They recommended dance clubs, fancy dinners and more casual local places for us to eat. They helped us plan our day of walking around, told us where all the touristy shopping was, as well as all of the cool townie shops. They greeted us with a big smile every time and always asked us how our day had been.
The entire hotel is impeccably clean and smells delicious (like someone is constantly baking pie or mulling fresh cider). Our room was enormous! Bigger than most of my friend apartments in the city, the bedroom was separate from the living area, which had a flat-screen TV, a comfy couch, a desk (that we did not use once!) and a fire place! Though it was too cold to use it, there was also a balcony. The bathroom was huge! All tiled marble, with a separate tub (big enough for two) and shower (big enough for four--if you're into that kind of thing) and stocked with L'Occitane products...you can always tell how nice a hotel is by the products with which they stock their bathroom!
Right in the heart of Old Montreal, we were surrounded by little shops, cobblestone streets and beautiful architecture in quiet, peaceful neighborhood. We were withing minutes of Rue St. Catherine, the waterfront and public transportation (which we did not use, but always good know).
Return trips to Montreal will lead me right back to Le Saint Sulpice...with all of the amenities, amazing staff and location, I've no reason to look anywhere else!
Went up to Montreal for the G&L Film Festival last year and stayed here. They were one of the sponsoring hotels. This place is fabulous...a boutique hotel just down the street from Notre Dame in the Old City.
The suite we had was beautiful and well-appointed, although the bedroom was a bit small. But this is a very old building that has been retrofitted. There are fire places in some of the rooms and we had a jacuzzi tub in ours.
Parking for your car is about $25 US per night. The hotel is cheaper in the winter than it is in the summer...go figure.
I like this place.
The "SS" is a boutique hotel in Old Montreal right around the corner from Notre Dame Cathedral. The location is particularly good for tourists (business travelers might prefer something slightly more central). Services and amenities are very nicely considered.
Decor is a nice mix of old world charm with contemporary flair. I particularly like the way most units are suite-like, offering minimal kitchen facilities and separate bedrooms. Units with fireplaces are especially nice during cold Montreal winters. The lobby smells like apples-and-heaven (how do they do that?) and often sees guests drinking wine in front of the cozy fire.
The gym facility is well-considered with a a nice mix of cardio equipment, free weights and a few basic machines (with 24-hour access). There is a small business centre and free wi-fi. The restaurant is pleasant and would be a great place for cocktailing, and room service is accommodating (humouring my requests for health conscious entrees even while recommending great wine).
Potential demerits - interior bedrooms in the suites may seem small, and we had some loud-ish street noise that I expect would be worse in summer months.
Concierge did well with restaurant recommendations and staff was always on hand to offer guidance re: local attractions, general directions.
If you prefer a boutique hotel to one of the major chains, this is a great option. I'm a Four Seasons girl, and the SS did OK for me.
