SpringHill Suites Old Montreal

I loved my stay at the Springhill Suites in Old Montréal, and will try to stay here again. The hotel is centrally located in the heart of Old Montréal, which allowed me to very easily visit much of the city (sites too far to walk were easily accessible by public transit). Additionally, the hotel was beautiful and very cozy — our room was large with a wonderful terrace that seats about 5. The free breakfast was even good, with fresh eggs, make-​your-​own waffles, and warm croissants. Lastly, the service was incredibly friendly.

One of the best stays I’ve had recently. Stayed in one of the balcony suites — balcony wasn’t really accurate though. It was more like a terrace!
The only negative is that my wife almost got stung by a bee in the room. But maybe the bee was there first and we (she) intruded. Oh well. 5 stars!

Great hotel in an amazing location in Old Montréal. I’ve been to Montréal many times but we usually stay near McGill in one of the hotels on Rue Sherbrooke.
I’ve always thought the hotels in Old Montréal were too expensive but I got a pretty good deal. I’m actually not a huge fan of Old Montréal but it’s near Chinatown.
Hotel staff were super friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 were because I killed about 5 – 6 ants in my room during my 3 night stay. Not exactly an ant infestation but it’s more than just a couple of random ants sneaking in.
Free breakfast buffet helps save some money. Suites have a mini-​fridge, microwave and sink.

Love this hotel. Perfect location, right in the heart of Old Montréal. you step out, go half a block and a choice of wonderful restaurant s of Rue St Paul and turists attractions are here. We did not rent a car and we easily walked to all our spots, as well as Metro station and back. Our room accomadates our son on pull out sofa, there is refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker so you can heat up leftovers. Though breakfast was a nice surprise — scramble eggs, salsa, hot oatmeal, pastries, fruit, sausages. Really decent selection of more than just carbs. Room is not hugebut very efficient and I bet all buildings in Old Montréal are tight on space. Service is verynice as well.

I loved this hotel! We were a very large group of friends and family (40+) traveling to Montréal for 4 nights. The staff was just lovely to us and everything was clean and organized. The lobby is gorgeous and we had everything we needed, despite it being a popular weekend (July 4^th) and the hotel being fully booked. Most of us had regular sized rooms (with a fridge and microwave) but a lucky few (about 20% of the group) ended up with huge rooms simply because they were on the corner of the hotel. So request one of the corner rooms, they are HUGE and not considered suites so there’s no extra charge!
The hotel is also conveniently located by lots of bars and restaurants in the heart of Old Montréal. Follow the pretty cobblestone path and you will discover some cute places. There’s tons to do such as bike riding, shopping, eating, drinking and the casino and nightclubs are a short cab ride away. I recently stayed at a Marriott Courtyard in Montréal (because this hotel was fully booked) and I just felt like it was in the middle of nowhere. Trust me, Springhill Suites is where you want to stay!

Although the room was a little tight, it was in the old town where real estate is at a premium. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. The room and bed were quite comfortable. The best part of this hotel, however, was the outstanding staff. From the woman who checked us in to the maid service personnel, the staff was friendly, helpful, and conscientious. The woman who checked us in greeted us by name the following day when we asked for an extra blanket – which arrived at our room before we did!

If I were to visit Montréal again, I would stay at this Mariott. The location is unbeatable, room was nicely decorated and spacious. Service was at its best.

The Marriott Springhill is possibly the best located hotel in the entire city of Montréal. Step right out the door, turn left and you are on Rue St. Paul in the heart of Old Montréal. Beautiful!
It’s really a nice hotel too. It’s not the Ritz Carlton but definitely a step above the typical Springhills that I’ve stayed in before. Nice free breakfast on the mezzanine overlooking the rather elegant (for a springhill) lobby. We were upgraded to a «larger» suite on the top floor, which was actually a very good sized true suite. I can’t speak for the regular rooms, but this one was quite nice.
I had originally booked the downtown Marriot and changed to this location at the last-​minute. It proved to be an excellent decision! The ability to walk from the hotel to the places we wanted to go and not use the car was priceless.
The staff was super friendly to us. They helped contribute to what was possibly the greatest weekend of my life.
If you’re in Montréal and want to enjoy the old city, this is the place to stay.

My family has just returned from a short Holiday spent in Montréal & the stay was made better because of this lovely hotel. First, we did not have to rent a car, as the hotel, located in Old Montréal, was steps away from the river, museums, art cooperatives (great buys — wonderful gifts) & the Metro. You will be walking on cobblestones, so you need to chose wisely your footwear. The hotel free breakfast was delicious. They also have a hot tub & workout facility. My family raved about it… I chose to make that my time (relaxing shower & a so deserved afternoon nap). Quality restaurants surround the hotel. The price was more than reasonable. I purchased the trip package through Expedia & just could not be happier!

This Springhill has one major thing going for it– LOCATION! It’s extremely close to all the tourist spots, so I added a star to an otherwise decent place to stay. The rate isn’t bad for being right in the middle of everything in Old Montréal, and the staff were always friendly and helpful.
Rooms are on the smallish side, but since they’re «suites» they feel bigger. The décor is starting to show some age and the ac/​heater unit was noisy, but the bed was comfortable, and that goes a long way in my book.
Internet speed is on the slow side but free, so overall it’s a better place for vacation than business

My husband and I have stayed here twice, and I see no reason to stay anywhere else while in Montréal. The location is super-​convenient to all things Old Montréal, and is a short walk to a metro station and adventures beyond. Rooms are a decent size and the beds are comfy. There’s an in-​room mini fridge and microwave if you’re into saving a bit of money by stocking up your own beverages (we are!).
The Continental Breakfast is a decent way to start the day, and if you strike at the right time you can get your hands on some chocolate nutella croissants.
The adjacent parking is worth it! Heated garage, and you can come and go as you want. Also, ask for a room on the 6^th floor if you want to have a view of something other than the side of an office building. :)
The pool is currently undergoing maintenance but we wouldn’t have used it anyway, and we didn’t care about the gym or whether or not the cleaning lady said ‘bonjour’ to us in the hallway. If you care about either of these when you’re on vacation then we do not want to party with you!
If you want a clean no-​frills hotel, stay here.

Pros: Rooms are spacious and clean. We were in a deluxe king room which was large enough for a family of 4 utilizing the queen pull out sofa. Location is safe and tucked away within the historic old Montréal area. Complimentary breakfast buffet is substantial and they even have take away containers for afternoon snacks. We also enjoyed the microwave and in room fridge.
Cons: The housekeeping staff is extremely unfriendly. No greeting in the hall unless you consider a smirk and begrudging good morning mumble when you annoy them with a greeting. We also asked for beer glasses and were told we should use the room 4oz water glasses. Weird in the land of microbrews and a hotel with room service that serves beer.
All in all, not a bad stay but in the same breath, not a good one either. Common courtesies go a long way. I’m a huge fan of this chain but Marriott missed the mark this time.
We were there back in July 2012. This post was stuck in my drafts.

I’d think that for a Marriott, the hotel was going to be a bit more upscale, but the suite was just okay. While the bed and bathroom was clean enough, the carpets were incredibly dirty. The hotel receptionist and the staff taking care of the breakfast were really nice. The hot breakfast buffet that comes as part of your stay was just okay. The oatmeal was really slimy, and they ran out of it one morning when I arrived 30 minutes prior to the kitchen closing. With that said, the location is awesome being in the middle of old montreal, you can easily walk around to Notre Dame (5 min walk), and chinatown (10 min walk).

Decent option for a reasonably priced place to stay in Old Montréal. Very close to the touristy shops and restaurants. Close to Notre Dame.
Rooms are a bit small and awkward but the do include microwave, fridge, sink, and wifi.
The ‘included at no additional charge’ breakfast is just OK. Very typical of these types of chains.
The small indoor pool is located on the 1^st floor (that is, the first floor of rooms, above the lobby (RC) and mezzanine). If you stay on floor 1 expect a little extra noise and the smell of chlorine.
Parking is difficult in Old Montréal no matter where you stay — the hotel has valet parking for $ 21 a day (plus taxes which brings it to $ 25). There is a pay lot nearby that charges $ 14 but it is open, uncovered.

You simply can’t beat the location. Walking (or stumbling) distance to everything in Old Montréal. Close to bus line 715 for the circuit around to downtown.
The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is nice, a bit smallish rooms and a bit dated, but is just fine. Breasts are the normal Springhill Suites fare, good enough but nothing to write home about.
All in all, I’d stay here again on my next visit.

this is really nice hotel — size is perfect, and service was friendly. Room comes with a fridge, microwave, small kichen, desk, and separate bedroom.
Downside was, gym was rather small, pool was tiny, free breakfast tasted like total crap. But again, that’s «Free» (But I’m paying for it…)
Parking is a little pain.
The location is… well, depends on what you like. If you like touristy trap, this is the place for you. If you dont’ like touristy, don’t stay here.

That’s it. I’ve been ruined for American chain hotels. The service we got at the Springhill in Old Montréal was far superior to its equivalents in the States.
The breakfast buffet (free!) was tasty and different every day, with heavenly nutella-​filled croissants (and I didn’t even think I liked nutella beforehand). The staff was friendly, personable, and efficient. The suite was fricking huge to be a standard (e.g., non-​premium priced) suite in a tourist district of a major city.
There wasn’t anything I didn’t really like about the hotel. It lacked the distinctive charm that you can get in some independent hotels, and we did have to pay for parking (which is about par for the course), but it was somewhere between acceptable and aces all the way across the board.

Average Springhill Suites, but may be a good call if you’re looking for an affordable option in Old Montréal.

Great location for walking in the old town. Horrible location for driving, so leave the car with the valet and hoof it.
Very nice staff, especially the front desk folks. We got a studio room with fold out bed since were traveling with the family. High marks for the comfy beds and the boy loved the the included breakfast. You can make your own waffles or just enjoy others attempting to make theirs (Tip: you CAN’T use too much of the spray conditioning and the beeping means you should flip it). Somewhat embarrassed by the other Americans and the lack of civility to the staff trying to help at breakfast.
Overall a great experience at this Mariott

As we drove for the very first time on the 720 into Old Montréal, we saw the different buildings and quickly made out one that said Marriott. That’s our hotel! Drive thataway!
But our GPS commanded us to take a right into a small, skinny street and assured us that «destination is ahead». Surely, Chuckie (our name for our GPS) was mistaken. But, of course, he wasn’t. We drove our SUV into a one-​vehicle driveway that would be the main entrance to the hotel.
This definitely wasn’t the Marriott we saw in the skyline. This one was a cramped version of the usual Marriotts we’ve stayed in. The room we were given was cramped. They had provided us with a pack-​n-​play but we didn’t set it up anymore as there was barely enough room for it. Maybe we just got the wrong card this time. But I do have to note that the indoor pool is really just a wading pool (maximum depth is 3’8″) and don’t expect you can do your laps here either.
No matter, we were comfortable and the kids were happy. Indeed, there’s a free breakfast buffet in the mezzanine and free internet connection. And this hotel is in a great location! There are lots of quaint restaurants and shops within walking distance. And as Jeffrey K. and PC W. have already noted, it’s close to Place d’Armes Station, Notre Dame and City Hall. Most importantly and strategically for us, it’s so close to the Montréal Science Center. We have free passes and so we spent the whole weekend venturing inside. During both days, we just walked. Temps were at 7 degrees but we thought it was a piece of cake! On our last day, upon check-​out, we loaded our vehicle and the hotel allowed for an extended parking till 4 pm with no extra charge. So, we were able to maximize the Science Center without having to park in their garage.
If we were to come back to Old Montréal, we would definitely consider staying here again! Au revoir!
