Don't expect a five star hotel experience here but you should be very pleased. Hopefully as much as we were. When making reservation ASK TO BE BOOKED INTO A RENOVATED NOVATION ROOM. If you read other's reviews i think this made the big difference for our stay. This hotel is close to everything downtown 1blk Bell Centre - 1blk St.... more

We booked a 3 nights getaway thru the hotel website at $143.2/nite. We booked a Superior 1 King Bed and 1 Sofa, we received 1King Bed and 2 chairs. Our room was on the 4th floor, facing an alleyway, with an old red brick apartment and a big blue garbage dumpster right across the lane. We were " morning called"... more

Looking back at the website after my stay, I cannot believe the photos are actually the same hotel. I actually checked the address carefully to make sure. The website pictures were SO misrepresentative of at least my room. I may have been given a bad room since I got a relatively decent (though not cheap) rate on their website. I... more

I stayed here for five nights. It was one of the conference hotels for a meeting I was attending, and even at a conference rate (which is often higher than the regular rate for the same hotel, go figure) it was a much better deal than what other hotels in downtown Montreal were charging. I had a room with two... more

I have stayed at this hotel 4 weekends in the last year and always had a great stay. The check in staff is wonderful - friendly, bilingual (although they don't mind letting you practise your french with them!), helpful with room selection, willingness to provide suggestions and directions to different spots in Montreal. Rooms have always been spotless and comfortable.... more

Standard hotel chain - clean and comfortable but the location is the best! Rates for a double room were good (probably it was because we booked it early) as we booked directly from the hotel website. There is a place for breakfast but it is more expensive than other breakfast places near the hotel. There is underground parking in the... more

If you need a view you might not choose this hotel. Most of the rooms seems to look in on themselves, over an inner courtyard. And the lighting is terrible. We were there in winter and the (big)room had 3 small lamps.- I felt I needed a torch! Upside, its a great location, you are seconds away from great shops... more

After doing research on the hotel's website, TripAdvisor.com and on the Hotels.com website, I booked through Hotels.com. Just for reassurance, I called the hotel (after I booked with Hotels.com) to ask direct questions about the Novotel Montreal Center a/k/a Novotel Montreal Downtown. I was told with effusive enthusiasm by a staff member that I would be staying in a renovated... more

My wife, son, and myself stayed there primarily for the location. It is a very short walk to the Bell Centre where the Canadiens hockey team plays. The people in the hotel were very helpful and the proximity to the shopping areas and restaurants was great. The only shortcoming is parking. Few spaces underground or you can park in the... more
