I stayed here with my hubby for one night while in Montreal and was planning to stay additional nights at a latter part of our trip. We decided to only stay one night and the rest of the time at W Montreal. Upon check in, the staff was very friendly. I am a member of the SPG reward program and was using cash and points and was told that I could upgrade to a room with jacuzzi for $40 more, so I said fine. The staff was very nice and accomodating. When we got to our room, the jacuzzi didnt work, so we switched to a different room. Both of the rooms had view of Rue Sherbrook which was nice. The room in general was a good size with good view. The beddings were also nice. However, the bathroom was really old and needs update. It was also very small that two people can barely fit in there. The caulk around the bathtub was falling apart and the bathroom looks like it was done in the early 80's. On the other hand, the location was very convenient, within walking distance to everything.

Overall, I thought Le Meridien was better than the Westin, however it wasnt what I had expected. If I had to pay out of my pocket, I am only willing to pay up to $150 for the room, and not $300 that would have cost.

I'm biased but i like the fact that it's just down the street from the world's best museum, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and that this used to be a condo. also, i like that they upgrade me, but that said, breakfast is amazing, although the menu at dinner is a little extreme with veal and venison. I think the staff is generally good and the location, while a bit closer to the airport than most, makes it easy enough to get around. Can't imagine going back to Bonaventure Hilton, the Four Points or the Radisson after this. when i said how much i liked the eggs, the chef offered to send me some in a FedEx envelope, they could teach Le Meridien San Francisco a thing or two. All in all, this is the best in Montreal.

Super convenient to get to from Montreal Airport: take the L'Aerobus, let them know when you board you're headed to the "Chateau Versaille hotel" (directly across the street b/c Le Meridien is not a designated dropoff/pickup location). Once you get to central bus station, hop on the free transfer & they'll drop you off across the street from Le Meridien. All that for CD$28 roundtrip :)

Front desk staff @ Le Meridien was wonderful, we got to check-in early (since we flew red eye) & got an upgraded corner Jr. suite w/ a jacuzzi tub!

The hotel is about 3 blocks from the Fine Arts Museum. Great places to eat & walkable w/n 1-2 blocks include: Premiere Moisson (bakery/cafe) for breakfast, Chateau Kabob for lunch, & Au Bistro Gourmet for a wonderful dinner. We got food from the bakery every morning & wished we had more time to re-visit the other two.

Didn't need a car. Metro entrance on Guy Concordia is w/n 2 blocks. We had no problems getting to Old Town Montreal or the Underground Shopping area.

We reviewed many, many hotels, looking at pricing, photos and reviews (from Trip Advisor) several months before booking this hotel.

We could not have been more delighted with this choice!

We stayed here 8 days and came into contact with much of the staff who worked there. Everyone was extremely pleasant and helpful (and my French is far from being the best).

The hotels itself was not large in size, but had everything that we required--a workout room, restaurant, room service.

Location was also perfect. A five minute walk, at most, to the Metro. Safe and upscale area on Rue Sherbrooke O.

I welcome any questions you might have on Montreal or the Le Meridien if you are planning a trip. Merci beaucoup!!
