Still a good place...

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Dec 27, 2007
Although it was a better buy a few years ago with the exchange rate and increases, it's still a great respite in Old Montreal. If you want
a ton of amenties like a gym, go to the Omni- otherwise, for quaint, charming, comfort- choose the Auberge.

We have not stayed at the Auberge du Vieux Port for a few years, so we figured it was time to revisit this old favourite.

The hotel still has its charms, but this year is its 10th anniversary, and the hotel is showing its age in small ways.

The upholstered bench in our room had a noticeable hole in the corner, with the stuffing coming out. The caulking around the bathroom sink was all mildewy and deteriorating -- it ought to have been replaced ages ago. That sort of thing. Nothing major, but it all adds up.

Also, the Narcisse, the new wine bar, is not as nice as the old Les Remparts restaurant, either in atmosphere or menu.

However, the service continues to be impeccable. Staff are friendly and helpful at all times -- they certainly made the stay very pleasant.

I waited until the last minute to book a trip to Montreal and had few choices as to where to stay. I saw Auberge Vieux du Port and it looked nice so I blindly took a chance. Sometimes dumb luck is the best way to travel.

On the way up to Montreal, I took a recent copy of Conde Nast with their annual readers' poll. Turns out Auberge was the number 1 hotel in Montreal and number 7 in all of Canada.

I understand why it gets high marks. The staff is outstanding, the hotel is adorable, the location is perfect, and there are so many little things they do well. I was on my own, but was always comfortable and well taken care of. The concierge gave me her card when I checked in -- just in case I had any questions while out and about, and then called my room to make sure that "everything was perfect."

There is a wine and cheese reception in the bar each evening. The bedding rivaled top hotels in Europe. And I could not have been happier in the Old Port section of Montreal. It is magical at night when the lights come on, there are adorable shops, restaurants galore, and art galleries to poke around in.

The food scene in Montreal is amazing. I had some of the best meals ever, and felt that had I chosen other restaurants, I still would have. There are so many to choose from.

I would highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a boutique, well serviced, comfortable experience. Oh, and their restaurant was very good too.

Stayed at Auberge du Vieux-Port a month ago. Had a really great tme. Was actually surprised to see it ranked so low on tripadvisor. Staff was just wonderful, our stay wouldn't have been same without them. Would go back any time and recommend it to anyone with no doubt. Ask for river front room.

We spent 3 nights at the Auberge in mid-October, and found the location, service staff, and rooms all that we would have wanted.Also, the buffet breakfast served in a wine-cellar-like room was very good. Although we were initially disappointed that their restaurant, Les Remparts, had recently closed, the concierge made us reservations at other highly recommended places including Restaurant Bonaparte and Pinxto (Spanish tapas).The valet brought our car within 10 minutes each time we requested it and everyone working at the hotel, including the breakfast-room server, went out of their way to be helpful and friendly. In fact, when the woman in charge of breakfast noticed that my husband was making a hot chocolate from the buffet, she offered to go to the kitchen and make a cup with better cocoa and milk (not water). A small nicety, perhaps, but an example of the staff's generous attitude. We liked walking to most places, and the archeology museum and Science center with Imax theater are right nearby, as is Rue St. Paul.
