Ruby Foo’s Hotel

An okay travellers hotel. It’s in a somewhat industrial/​off the beaten path area off Decarie. Lots of things within walking distance, including that orange julip. There’s a McDonald’s and a short walk from a plaza with more dining options.
An older hotel for sure but the rooms have a certain amount of boutique look. The restaurant attached to the hotel is good for breakfast. The gym actually is quite well done. Has everything essentially including full weight rack. I’d stay here again if I had to come to this area myself but it is a bit of a dated place.

This hotel had a comfortable bed and clean room, but it was dated. The very, very old heating/​cooling system was one of those fan deals — very noisy and impossible to regulate the setting between hot and cold. We ended up turning it off. They gave us a room that we had to take an elevator, walk like a mile, go down a set of stairs, and walk another long ways. The people at the desk were helpful, but we would not stay here again.

Rooms are very nice. Hallways ‘old’. Pool is quiet. near everything including a subway.

We chose Ruby Foo’s for a last-​minute road trip to Montréal, and it proved more than satisfactory for our needs. The room itself was clean and adequate in the amenities department; we didn’t come to the city to sit in a hotel room anyway. Free, no-​hassle parking allowed us to dump our car and explore the city by foot and on public transit, which is a short walk away. The outdoor swimming pool was outstanding (as far as hotel pools go), which made for a nice early morning treat for the kids. And the breakfast place downstairs was surprisingly tasty. Only downsides: WiFi was slow as molasses on most of our devices, and non-​fast food dining options in the area are sparse (we made sure to grab dinner downtown before heading back to the hotel). Would definitely consider for a future visit to Montréal.

Outstanding hotel. Big, clean, and friendly. Good WiFi. Easy parking. Great barber. Comfortable bed.

We always stay at Ruby Foo’s when we come to Montréal to visit family. While it’s not downtown, it’s a short walk to a metro station. It’s clean, updated, quiet and the beds are comfy. There are also several eating place nearby — Tim Horton’s, Wendy’s McDonalds, Burger King and my favorite — Dunn’s for smoked meat sandwiches. Another bonus is free parking.

Quiet and comfortable. Staff was very helpful with restaurant recommendations. Breakfast at their restaurant was decent. Will stay there again on my next business trip to that area.

Came here only once for a very quick short stay (6 hours only for the night.) A friend got married around by and I needed a nearby place to just crash with the rest of the wedding group. Ruby Foo’s staff is great with finding you a room according to needs and tries best to work with what you need. I didnt really use much of their services, but the rooms were well kept, moderately affordable with the adequate supplies. The bed was comfy and the check out fast. But from what I saw while checking out they have a nice pool with great seating arrangements on the side. Its located conveniently just after the 40west near decarie express. Will positively recommend this place.

I stayed at this hotel not to long ago… During our 8 day tour of the East Coast when, I first heard the name Ruby Fool’s Hotel… For me it sounded like a Chinese restaurant when I first saw this hotel from the inside and outside this Ruby Fool’s hotel it wasnt that bad of a hotel… There is just two things that… I have to say about this hotel #1 the hotel room where I stayed was okay and for #2 didnt like when Ruby Fool’s only had one elevator to use that was the only thing that I didn’t like… But overall in what, I really like most about Ruby Fool’s hotel is the free Wi Fi that they have!!!

We were pleasantly surprised by Ruby Foo’s. When the tour guide told us this would be our hotel, just hearing the name gave me instant reflex that it was going to be ghetto. When we arrived, I noticed the lobby was quite modern and clean. The hallways walking to our room looked kinda ghetto… then when I opened the door, I was surprised at how spacious and well designed the room was. The washeoom was clean amd comfortable. The beds had duvets (and not those nasty layers of dirty thin blankets). The tv was centered between the 2 beds — minor detail but makes a big difference! The window covering is this wooden panel where when closed, it displays a «chinese» art. Cute touch!
Shampoo/​conditioner mediocre.

Great Location off Decarie and Jean Talon. Good service, clean rooms

I’m a regular at this place. It’s a great price and a decent stay. The people at the front desk are marvelous. Staff provides prompt, courteous service. Bed is so comfortable. Room is nothing fancy.
On the down side, the Internet is terribly, terribly slow. And cable TV has few channels for U.S. travelers. Signs are posted, promising upgrades in this area. So my comment may be out of date very soon.
Also on the down side: dining options. Choices are mediocre in this area of Montréal. The on-​premise options are is just… meh. There’s Baton Rouge and fast food joints across the street. If you want better, hop a cab to St-​Laurent, Crescent St, Little Italy or downtown.
