Le Square Phillips

Great hotel, large spacious rooms with a kitchen. The staff was very kind and helpful. They made great suggestions for local restaurants/​bars, and even helped make reservations. The hotel also has a gym and indoor pool (which was a bit cold for me, but a great amenity). They serve free continental breakfast daily which was really good as well. Overall, I have no complaints. Amazing location, Walking distance from the Main Street and a short walk to old montreal. Would highly recommend this place. Definitely returning

I came here by myself on a quick weekend getaway. I received way more bang for my buck than I imagined.
First, the room was huge. I’m talking studio apartment huge. High ceilings. High windows. Huge California King size bed. Full kitchen. Full dining area. Large bathroom. Wifi. Continental breakfast. Oh, and all this for about $ 130/​night. What a steal!
The hotel is downtown, just a few steps from the Underground Mall and everything else downtown has to offer.
If you’re looking for a great deal, this is the place.

I want to live there. We had a very large clean apartment with 15 foot ceilings a full kitchen bedroom, 2 big flat screens with ez HDML connection, etc. Larger than some places I have lived. Cook ware was typical cheep but with one stand out that impressed me a Victornox paring knife cheep but not a POS. Bike share rental was just at next block over, just make sure you select English on the rental machine first. The bikes are tanks but ok as long as you stay in the downtown core.

Le Square Phillips is a nice spot to lay your head down in Montréal. The hotel is located on a quiet street allowing you to get a good night sleep after galavanting the streets of the city. It is brisk walking distance to many of the restaurants, bars and sights of downtown. If you’re a lil lazy you can hop on the bus or subways that will take you throughout the city.
The suites are big and can comfortably accommodate 4 – 5 people. New and clean bathrooms, nice kitchen area and wide screen TVs in the bedroom and living area and free continental breakfast. All this for a very competitive price. Highly recommended!

Excellent value! Huge rooms that have everything a traveler might need. Breakfast is modest but does the job. Excellent pool and deck overlooking the city.

The Square Philipps is a reasonable priced hotel in downtown Montréal. The rooms, which are actually small appartments with a kitchen and an eating table, are really spacious and of course tidy and clean.
The free breakfast is not really to recommend — it’s often quite crowdy and the food variety rather basic. Better go for another option in the area.
Overall a good stay, if you’re aware of the breakfast deficiency.

3 ½ stars.
We stayed here for 4 nights for our babymoon trip to Montréal last week. Listed below are all the pros and cons of this hotel.
Pros:
–downtown location, close to everything
–clean and large room
–free continental breakfast
–smell good toiletries
–fully stocked kitchen & appliances (fridge, oven, stove, toaster, microwave, etc)
–large safe
–free local calls
–off season rate is pretty affordable
–free wifi
–good amount of street parking
–friendly staff
–quiet
–pets stay free
Cons:
–no body lotion — weird b/​c all hotels provide lotion
–during breakfast hours, the toaster machine on the 2^nd floor emits a burnt smell which flows through the whole hotel and apparently can reach the 8^th floor (where we were located) — smelled like cigarette smoke, not pleasant
–no complimentary parking — valet parking only, ~$ 25/​day
–remodeling the front of the hotel — not very appealing w/​the wooden ramps and metal railings
–bed and pillows weren’t as comfy as they could be
Overall, we had a pleasant stay at this hotel. For parking, I would either park in the parking lot next to the hotel for $ 17/​day or $ 10 on weekends or after 5pm. We took the car everywhere so we just paid for a couple of hours on the street either at night or in the AM since there were plenty of street parking for us or it was just our luck. Street parking is free from 9pm to 9am. The location of this hotel was superb so if we were to ever visit Montréal again we would definitely look into staying here again depending on the rate. The hotel is nice and quiet which is a bonus b/​c we’ve stayed at many hotels w/​very bad insulation between rooms.

We stayed in one of the family suites of this hotel and it was plenty clean, spacious/​comfortable for a family of five. Our children were actually playing hide & seek in the suite.
The staff was helpful and even offered gifts to our children up on check-​in (and the toys/​activities were great – not cheap throwaways).
While not extensive, it is nice that they offer continental breakfast for a quick bite & coffee before a full-​day of touring.
We didn’t have much of an opportunity to use the well-​stocked kitchen, but could be nice for those staying longer than a few days.
The indoor pool was chilly (!), but it was fun for the kids to swim with a view of the city from the rooftop.
This hotel was quite reasonable and really accommodated all of our needs for a family visit to the city.

We went to this hotel on our family vacation. The front desk and concierge staff were very helpful, and professional. Our room was very spacious, comfortable, and clean. Our room had a kitchenette, everything worked good. It would be nice if the housekeepers left soap for the dishwasher daily. We did not have any noise problems. The continental breakfast is basic, it is very chaotic during breakfast hours as the room is very small. Valet parking is $ 20 dollars a day. You can park at the garage next door but it is unsupervised. The pool is on the top floor with the gym. It offers a view of the nearby surroundings. We would recommend this hotel if you are traveling with younger kids if you don’t mind the price.

We’ve stayed here a few times for the jazz fest in July and it’s perfect. It’s just far enough away to escape the chaos but close enough that we can take mid-​day naps, if needed. I’m afraid to write this review b/​c I don’t want it to be «discovered» during that time. We get the 2 bedroom and it easily accommodates my family of four and my parents.
The continental breakfast is great! We would make peanut and jelly sandwiches for the kids as a backup snack for the day. Staff is VERY friendly and helpful. It takes some time to get your car out of the lot so plan ahead for that.

I really liked this place. It was spacious, conveniently located and the price was right. We didn’t use the kitchen but if we were in Montréal longer that might have come in handy. The hotel was very clean and the staff were helpful. I would probably have given this place 5 stars except the continental breakfast might have been more accurately called the carbs and coffee breakfast. Having said that, it did save us some money and everything was fresh and well-​maintained.

The only thing I can say bad about this place is the beds are just a firmer than I like. That is just my preference though.
The staff was helpful, the rooms were very spacious and the location is ideal.
I would definitely stay here again!

We stayed at the Square Phillips Hotel & Suites when in Montréal recently. We were very happy with our stay. The room was LARGE — more like a studio apartment! The room was beautiful! This is a good location in the city and we’d definitely come here again!

Le Square Phillips is a great value for those looking for something more homey than a hotel stay. The ‘rooms’ are really apartments with a decent size kitchen and dining area. The interior furnishing are a bit dated but overall still a fairly comfortable stay. The beds were comfortable. We had two couples staying in a two double beds suite and there were more than enough room for all of us to roam around.
The kitchen is fairly well stocked. They have full size refrigerator, oven, stove, microwave oven, dishwasher, cooking utensils, wine glasses and all kinds dining wares. However, they do not have spice rack or any cooking oil. Most of the knifes in our room were quite dull so keep that in mind if you are planning to do any serious cooking.
Hotel complimentary breakfast was wonderful. It is continental style but they have great varieties. Love those Montréal style bagels.
If weather permits do spend some time at their roof top pool. The night sky of Montréal downtown is beautiful.

Pros
— Great Location (one block from St Catherine’s and in the middle of everything)
— Spacious Suites
— Attentive Housekeeping Staff
— Kitchen with fridge, stove, dining room table, microwave, and utensils
— Free WiFi
— Free Continental Breakfast
Cons
— The continental breakfast was just ok (eggo waffles, toast, dry croissants, muffins, cereal, yogurt, and fruit). I skipped out on breakfast on the last day and opted for the Tim Horton’s down the block.
— No matter where we pointed the shower head, we soaked the bathroom floor consistently.
We stayed in one of their family suites with 3 guys for a bachelor party. We had enough room with a bedoom with a King bed, alcove area with a queen bed, and a sofa bed in the living room. The room was $ 338 (with all taxes/​fees) per night and it was a $ ³⁸⁄₂₀ minute cab ride from the airport.

Large apartments, friendly staff and nice public spaces. Within steps of everything you need on St Catherine’s. This former warehouse was renovated into loft-​style apartments in 2003. One block from The Bay and an SAQ Signature shop on St Catherine’s plus a Provigo grocery store is a 15min walk away.
We had a spacious studio apartment, daily housekeeping, great continental breakfast, roof-​top patio, coin laundry, pool, and gym. There is supposed to be parking around the corner for half the price the hotel charges. There’s also a large Bixi bike station on Phillips Square down the street.

If you’re just looking for a comfortable yet clean place in a neat neighborhood (this being St Catherines) this is definitely a great choice.
For our party of 10+ gentlemen, with our potential for rowdiness, they wouldn’t let us cram ourselves into lesser rooms. Good thing I’m in my more mature years where 4 doods to a 2 full size bed room is just shy of being tolerable and passing out on the couch or floor is no longer acceptable. The prices are somewhat higher but on a fair scale.
It’s pretty much a 3 star hotel, but comes off looking somewhere above that with its more formal lobby but retaining some of the older details in the room themselves. However, the rooms are spacious and the roof pool and patio area offers a great view to a part of Montréal that provides a great atmosphere for some whiskey sipping and cigar puffing.
Definitely would recommend staying here.

Definitely not the cheapest hotel in the world, but nothing in Montréal seems to be that way…$ 190 a night or so for three people to be in a room, but at least that room was HUGE! I mean big. There was even a full kitchen in it with a full sized fridge and plates and cups and everything!
And the beds were actually pretty comfy, but I would have liked some extra comforters or something like that since I am obsessed with blankets ha ha And the pillows were so so for my taste. But overall pretty good!
You get free wifi here too which I think should always be free when you stay at hotels, but this is one of the few nicer hotels that had free wifi. You also get free continental breakfast here which includes some fruit, cereal, muffins, pastries, toast… you know the usual stuff, but at least they give you something and they even have two types of coffee roasts which I appreciate.
The other downside is parking… I was told that Montréal has a car theft rate and so I definitely paid for the hotel parking, but it is $ 22 a night!!! Definitely steep, especially when the American dollar is worse than the Canadian dollar if you are an American visiting there! But hey, at least you know it is safe!

Unbelievably spacious rooms, great service, fairly good breakfast included. Great location in downtown. The modest workout room had decent cardio equipment, and the pool came in handy… Tip: You’ll need to head to breakfast fairly early if you want to avoid the rush. Just be warned: there’s no bar.
