Heard great things about Montreal and decided on a weekend break. Looked for a 'boutique' hotel and the St Paul filled the purpose.

Located on the fringe of Vieux Montreal it is a little out of the way even if located on a main thoroughfare. Nearest metro station is c 10 min walk away from where you can get to the rest of the city.

The room was spacious, however, needed a little TLC. Blinds were broken, sofa was old and buckled and needed replacing, bed was uncomfortable.

The worst part though was breakfast. I have never experienced such a calamity. There was no order or organisation. Tables were left dirty and not cleared/cleaned. Patrons waited for some time to be seated. Insufficient number of staff on the floor to run the breakfast shift. Food was ordinary and uninviting.

From a city with so much to give, felt totally let down by the hotel. This could be a wonderful place to stay but fell well short of its 'boutique' status.

My Wife and I were here in June of 2008 and really enjoyed our stay.

Great location for walking around Montreal. Very close to the old port area and short walk up to St Catherine. A Bit of a hike to St Steven but very doable if the weather is nice.

We chose a Superior Room and it was a bit smaller than expected but very comfortable and we were not in the room all that much.

Staff is extremely helpful and courteous. Will stay again.

Stayed at Hotel St. Paul for Christmas. Very average accomodation. The hotel totally lacks any ambience or atmosphere. My main issue with the rooms was the level of cleanliness. Whilst pouring water into the iron I spilled some water on the timber floor. I got tissues to clear it up and the tissue was black with dirt when I was done wiping up the water. As the hotel is downtown in Old Montreal and the nightlife is 15 - 20 min walk in the Catherine St / Cresent St area I would not recocomend the location to people looking for a party scene.

We booked this hotel through the Montreal tourism website and got a wonderful deal. Check-in was quick and friendly. I told her this was my first time to Montreal and she quickly pulled out a map and showed
me where we were and a few points of interest.

Its the little things that get me - when we went into our room everything looked impecable and there was nice music playing. You have to use your room key to have any lights on. I thought this was an interesting energy saving idea. I took some pictures almost right away (before I had time to mess the place up too badly).

I thought the bed and the chair were both quite comfortable and fell in love with the bath tub. I had 3 nice long bathes while I was there
(stayed 2 nights). I just wanted to comment, that everything in the room (and bathroom) were spotless! Unfortunately we were awoken a little earlier than we would have liked. There is some construction near by. The first morning it didn't wake us until 9am, but the second morning they were at it at like 7:30am. It's nothing that you can hold against the hotel though.

Breakfast was nice. A wide variety of breads, cereal, cheese, fruit, and yogurt. It was a nice relaxing start to the day. We didn't use our car once while we were there. We walked to the bell centre and down through old Montreal. We took a cab to St. Catherines street for
shopping, but that's only because it was raining. We took the Metro out to the bio-dome; the metro station is a short walk from the hotel.

Overall, I was very impress with this hotel. If I return to Montreal,
I will definately consider staying here again.
