Excellent location & very hospitable staff all-around. Rooms were very nice. Great underground connectivity to everything downtown. Only suggestion for improvement is valet parking location downstairs. Very cramped, needs a revamp.

Hotel's Favorite
We stayed for 6 nights this summer and had a lovely time at the hotel and enjoyed the superb location and convenience to the metro and downtown shopping. Hotel is in prime location - we live in a city without good transportation so always enjoy the metro system in Montreal. We took the 747 express bus from the airport which stops nearly at the hotel. Staff were friendly and very accommodating. Out daughter joined us for the last 2 nights and staff moved us to a room next door with 2 beds. We have stayed here multiple times over the last few years and always enjoy the Le Labo products, nespresso coffee, comfortable beds and views of the cathedral and downtown Montreal. Hours of Marche Artisans and Nacarat seemed to be much more limited than we remembered from past visits, though at least this year they had reopened. I am assuming the limited hours is part of staffing recovery from COVID. The pizzas from March Artisans were delicious - just be sure to go early as currently they close at 5. Nice selection of local craft beers. Looking forward to our next stay!

The Fairmont is conveniently located right above the train station which is very handy when travelling by train from Toronto. The lobby of the hotel doesn’t feel like a place where you would like to lounge and have a drink like some other hotels. On the first night we had trouble connecting to the wifi so I called the front desk for assistance and they advised me that we didn’t have free wifi and that we would have to pay for the wifi. This was disappointing. We stayed at the Ottawa Fairmont in June and we had free wifi there. The following day I was looking at the key card folder the front desk gave us when we checked in and there was a wifi password written inside. I wish someone had told us it was there when we checked in and I wish the front desk gave us correct information when I called for assistance with the wifi the first night. The thermostat in our bedroom did not work during our weekend stay as it only produced cool air, no heat. On our floor there was often room service dishes and trays left in the hallway suggesting that these items are not being picked up frequently enough. When we checked out at 9:30 am on the Monday we left our carry on sized bags with the hotel so we didn’t have to drag them around the city all day and the charge was $2.50 per bag. I was surprised there was a charge especially since we had just been guests in a suite for two nights.

When we arrived I was asked by the valet to take my car, I didn’t know they had self parking so that’s what I did. Checked in, room on the 8th floor of 21 and thought the noise from up, down and sides will kill me since I’m a light sleeper. To my surprise I heard NOTHING! I was impressed, that’s one of my must in a hotel. The other thing I’m a maniac is with cleanliness and it was immaculate. It was like if I was trying to find something wrong but I just couldn’t, Really happy about the hotel however I must say I was annoyed that I wasn’t told about self parking because i ended up paying 111 CAD for 3 nights!

A 3-night getaway during the US Thanksgiving weekend was a chance to go international but with the convenience and flexibility of traveling by car from Boston. Montreal is truly one of the great cities and the Fairmont displays the warmth, culture and friendliness of the people from the city. We were offered an upgrade from a room with two doubles to a junior suite at an attractive rate. It was a great decision as we could slide the doors to our bedroom with the king bed and our two boys could stay up later and sleep in as they pleased on the fold out queen sofa bed. The living room area of the junior suite was a bit cramped with the sofa bed extended and it was too much of an effort to fold it up every day but that was our choice. The room was lovely and we enjoyed very much all the amenities in the hotel - the weather got cold with sub zero temperatures so we used the fitness center, swimming pool, jacuzzi, the coffee shop and deli store frequently. The hotel is also connected to the underground passage system so you can walk underground to the big Eaton shopping mall and get to places like McGill without having to bear the cold. The great location of the hotel meant that we could walk to most places in 10-20 minutes including Basilique Notre Dame, Mont Parc Royal and restaurants in old Montreal. The concierge was highly knowledgable and his insights and advice mapped out a highly enjoyable day for us which included Mont Parc Royal and the Fine Arts Museum. Car parking was a breeze. We pulled up on Mansfield St to be met with a friendly and courteous valet who took our car and parked it under the hotel. We have an EV so it was really great to see that the car stayed at almost room temperature so the battery did not drain at all in the cold weather outside. When it was time to go, we simply went to the lower level, paid at the desk and our car was ready within 3 minutes. The parking rate was $37.50 per day and I know you can get daily parking nearby for $20 per day but honestly, the convenience was worth the premium added to the indoor advantage, important for EVs. When it was time to check out, we honestly did not want to leave both the Fairmont and the city. We agreed that this was the best (mini) vacation we have ever had despite the cold temperatures. I think we have become too battle weary of the general sub-par quality and service of US hotels, particularly in NYC. Canada and Montreal offer something special. Highly recommended.

My husband and I had two rooms here with two teenage boys doing college visits. Great value with Amex. Warm, attentive service throughout stay. I would stop short of describing it as full luxury hotel, but it does have modern, comfortable rooms, with many touches of boutique luxury hotels. Nice views down to McGill. Artisans, downstairs is great for breakfast or quick meal at the cheese/ wine/ sandwich bar. Rosely’s was good, but a bit overpriced. Only negative of stay was the valet. They forgot about our car but continued to just tell us they were working on it. Waited an hour, so the front desk refunded it. Will stay again despite valet issues.

3rd time here and as per usual the stay was good however the room was beyond warm and there was nothing they can do about it as the AC system was shut off for the season so the night sleep was not very good at all as you can imagine! On check out there was an issue with my bill but the line was huge so it took me forever to get it solved! I will stay here again as I am guessing this was an exception.
