Review from Jennifer B.
Stayed here in June because of the central location, price & what they offer. Would return to stay here again during future Montreal visits. Great for couples & families (if only because of the large rooms).
Had no issues whatsoever, very clean & good service whenever needed. GREAT city rooftop with lounge chairs for a summer evening. BIG rooms with fully stocked kitchen. Free WI-FI. Fitness centre small (2 treadmills, couple of bikes, small weight room) but does the job. Indoor pool was smallish & usually full with kids. Complimentary continental breakfast spread was pretty decent (fruit, oatmeal, toast, bagels, etc). For a better breakfast, Eggspectations is a 10 minute or less walk away on St Catherine Street. Don't miss the Italian restaurant a few doors down, fantastic pizza! -
Review from Hrayr A.
Conveniently located in the heart of downtown this hotel has spacious, clean rooms, fast and free Wi Fi and a great staff with a friendly attitude. The breakfast is not the best but they have good coffee, again, for free.
The room was $170/night and immaculate. it came with a fridge and a microwave oven. -
Review from Patricia M.
Edmonton, AB
We visit Montreal on a regular basis. As a result, we have stayed in a vast array of hotels (good and bad). This past June we flew to Montreal for a couple of days and stayed at Le Square Phillips because of the reviews on Tripadvisor. To say that we were thrilled is an understatement.
The most important detail at any hotel is cleanliness. To say that I am a germaphobe is an understatement, I travel with bottles of disinfectant and lysol. Not to mention I have a paranoia with bedbugs. Bed bugs are rampant around the world and the last thing any traveler wants to do is bring them home. Everywhere we go we thoroughly inspect mattresses and all furniture. I check everything for dust and dirtiness. This is the only hotel in Montreal that we have stayed at that is worthy of 5-stars - it is CLEAN!
The breakfast served in the breakfast lounge is fantastic. I've yet to find a hotel that provides breakfast in this fashion (for free) to it's guests. It is definitely appreciated for travelers like us that are always on the go and do not have time to eat at a restaurant.
The location is perfect. It's located 5 minutes from the transit system and is close to all amenities.
This is the ONLY hotel we are going to be staying at for all future trips. -
Review from Sarah G.
Definitely not the cheapest hotel in the world, but nothing in Montreal seems to be that way...$190 a night or so for three people to be in a room, but at least that room was HUGE! I mean big. There was even a full kitchen in it with a full sized fridge and plates and cups and everything!
And the beds were actually pretty comfy, but I would have liked some extra comforters or something like that since I am obsessed with blankets ha ha And the pillows were so so for my taste. But overall pretty good!
You get free wifi here too which I think should always be free when you stay at hotels, but this is one of the few nicer hotels that had free wifi. You also get free continental breakfast here which includes some fruit, cereal, muffins, pastries, toast...you know the usual stuff, but at least they give you something and they even have two types of coffee roasts which I appreciate.
The other downside is parking....I was told that Montreal has a car theft rate and so I definitely paid for the hotel parking, but it is $22 a night!!! Definitely steep, especially when the American dollar is worse than the Canadian dollar if you are an American visiting there! But hey, at least you know it is safe!! -

1. Great location - Located within walking distance to Notre Dame, Old Montreal, Chinatown, Latin Quarters, St. Catherine's, a few arts museums, the metro and a lot of shopping and restaurants.
2. The room was big. Very high ceiling with a king size bed and a small kitchen.
3. Nice and friendly staff. They provided an extra cot with no charge.
4. Free internet - they provide a code to you upon check-in.
5. Free continental breakfast - toast, croissants, cereals, fruits and coffee.

1. We requested 2 beds and ended up with a room with only one. We went to talk to the front desk and they were out of rooms to switch us to. But they provided the cot at no extra charge.
2. The towels smell.
3. The parking is $22 a day which is OK. but it has to be valet. If you need something in your car, you have to go through the concierge. -
Review from Elvis B.
We stayed at this hotel due to its great proximity to the U.S. Embassy. My husband had to have his visa interview there and it was a very quick walk (literally around the corner). Because of this, we were able to be the first people in line at the "secret door" (that you'd never know actually takes you inside the embassy).
The hotel had a business/internet room which was perfect for our last minute panic searches (I'm telling you, a lot goes through your mind the night before a visa interview) and also they were good about accepting (and getting to us) a last-minute overnight package which included my brother's birth certificate coming from the U.S. (we had forgotten it in our visa app and the visa would have been denied).
The complimentary continental breakfast in the "breakfast lounge" was perfect for us as we were in a time crunch in the a.m.. Just your standard bagels, juices, cereals and the like.
Also walking distance to lots of food and shops. Montreal has two things for sure, angry frowny faced people and goooood smoked meat!! -
Review from Loree B.
Not shabby...within walking distance to the Dublin (which is A-ok with me) and downtown. Nothing special though. I got stuck in a smoking room (yes you can smoke inside the hotels there, just not restaurants and such) and couldn't get moved unless I wanted to be far away from my co-workers. So I just stuck with it. Huge room though- without a view- full kitchen, decent bathroom. Semi-friendly staff. You walk in the lobby thinking you're gonna get a real treat, but it's probably not worth the money.

Review from Muriel P.
the rooms are huge, and sometimes very awkward. However i like that hotel because it is soooo downtown. There is also a small cafeteria / restaurant next door that sells pretty good food (and friendly staff).
