“Top Notch Service,”

Hotel Gault

Dec 13, 2007
5/7 found this review helpful

I stayed at Hotel Gault in November and I have nothing but good things to say. Firstly, we arrived rather late and check in was quick and welcoming. We were introduced to the friendly and courteous hotel staff and were told a few things about the hotel. I asked for recommendations for the following evening for dinner, as BYOW is something that lacks in Toronto. In the morning I was given 5 different options detailing locations, their personal reviews, crowd, and varying cuisines yet all pertaining to my requests! Excellent.

My room was quiet, relaxing, and more than inviting. I had a great night sleep and was up and ready to go after my free in room breakfast. A full a lá carte menu is included with free room service which was more than an added bonus as Montréal can leave you paralyzed the morning after.

The only thing I can say is that an LCD monitor would have been a nice added bonus, but nonetheless, the only issue I had.

No matter the request, Hotel Gault went out there way for me - my friends and I agreed that we are pleased to have somewhere to stay when in Montreal.

One of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in, and I've stayed in a lot. (I fly 120,000 miles a year). Beautifully designed. Super friendly staff. Great food. A "hip" hotel that makes you feel very welcome. Concierge, desk staff, etc. couldn't be nicer or more helpful. Older people may not think of it as "luxurious" - no overstuffed chairs, foo-foo decorations, etc. But if you like modern design, you can't beat it

7/9 found this review helpful

You may not like contemporary design (I do, and it's one more reason I love this hotel). But, even if you don't, the level of service here is simply amazing and should make even the most modern-design skeptic a lover of this hotel.

My wife and I stayed in a suite with a private balcony: a suite that easily eclipsed the size of our manhattan apartment! All amenities you could ask for: a well conceived design from top to bottom: heated bathroom floors, huge windows, generous storage to hang suits, unpack, and really high quality linens.

Notwithstanding how much I like the decor of the hotel, the staff and the professional level of service they provide are the main attraction in my opinion. Simply put: they are helpful and dedicated to making your stay comfortable and pleasant. We arrived very late but the hotel staff were there to park the car and bring our luggage to our room. I'm originally from Montreal and have seen a lot of the city's hotels when I've come back to visit. This hotel really exceeded my experiences with other hotels. My wife and I are sure to return.

We only stayed at the Hotel Gault for one night, but it is deserving of a review. We arrived very late, around 2 am, but were still greeted with a warm and welcoming reception. After a quick and pleasant check-in we were shown to our room. The room is large and sleek with more space for storing clothes, luggage, etc. than I've seen in any other hotel. The bathroom was also very large and all of the furniture and decor, from the chairs to the drapes, were modern and beautiful. We loved the long, wooden desk and the concrete floors. We also loved the concrete walls in the hallway (see attached photo) and the view from our corner window was very nice.

We ordered room service at 3 am and the food was excellent. An assortment of french cheeses with wine really hit the spot after our long day of driving. And again, the service was spectacular. Check out was expedient and friendly, and we left Hotel Gault wishing that we had more time to spend there.

For those wishing to explore Old Montreal, the hotel's proximity to Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal and other attractions is perfect.

10/12 found this review helpful

I spent several nights at the Hotel Galt in Old Montreal because it I had just finished attending a conference at McGill University and I wanted to stay in another part of Montreal. I had previously stayed at the Doubletree Plaza and Sheraton Le Centre.

This property is located on the Western outskirts of Old Montreal but the property is close enough to work to most of Old Montreal. I even walked from the business district to this property.

During my stay in Montreal the weather was exceptional warm and dry.

Check in was smooth, I was escorted to my top floor room by the Galt Rep. who checked me in. She showed me all of the details of the room. I asked for the most quiet and sun filled room in the property when I made my online reservation. I received a discount rate by purchasing my rooms in advance. When I entered room the radio/dvd player was playing classical music.

The room was large with hip and super cool environment. The bed was comfortable.
Television had many channels and rotated around to living room and kitchnette section of the room. The bathroom could be sectioned off from the kitchenette and bed area or could be opened up to both areas. The bathroom featured separate room for the toliet. Separate area for the bath tub and sink. Separate shower.

The bathroom featured Molton Brown products which were all fine. Also bottled Galt water was provided on daily basis.

My rate included continental breakfast and one hot dish (i.e. eggs or crepes) was very good. There is small gym in the basement.

In old Montreal I recommend Sport Du Vieux (casual dining), Restaurant Du Vieux Port (steakhouse with exceptional and friendly service), and Restaurant Des Gouverrid (Freinch cuisine).
I took the Greyline tour of Montreal and the tour company picked me up from the Hotel Galt. The day was sunny, dry and pleasant.

The only issue I had with the property was the closet light did not operate and I did not mention this to the Galt Reps and it was not fixed during my staff. A couple of the Galt Reps were not friendly but most were fine.

I was satisfied with my stay at Galt Hotel because the Hotel & room were Hip & Super Cool. My room was comfortable & quiet. Service is very good. If you are planning to spend some time in your room, you can not go wrong with the Hotel Galt. I highly recommend this superb property in Old Montreal.
