Hotels Near Cirque du Soleil in Montreal

We chose this hotel because we wanted to be in the centre of Montreal and we needed a crib or playpen for our baby and the website said they had them free. - Lack of communication: I tried to reach them via Expedia many times and they never answered me. - One of the men at reception was very rude with my husband and he didn't know if they had playpens and my husband had to find one and a mattress for our baby in their storeroom. - Poor cleanness: the bathtub was either dirty or old but it had some yellow spots where I didn't dare to sit my baby; the windows were dirty too. - The parking lot must be very small because we had to park at a different location and didn't even offer us to do it in their building. + Beds were comfy + We could use the microwave at the restaurant to heat our baby's food. + There was someone at reception who could speak Spanish and was very friendly. + It is close to the centre and lively areas.

Close to Chinatown and old port. Room is small and no view. The hotel will charge $4/luggage if you want to leave your luggages in the reception—that’s crazy. We didn’t pay, so we need to carry out luggages to walk around the city until our train in the evening.

Location is great if you want to be close to China town or old Montreal. It is about a 30 minute walk to downtown. Although parking is pricey it was worth it since the under ground garage was clean, bright convenient and safe!! Just make sure your ticket to go in and out works properly, it can get stressful since the garage is a bit on the tight side to have to back up with cars behind you when the ticket won’t let you out. I stayed in room 1409 and was large and clean, but there was a vacuum sound that would go on and off throughout the day, however we were out exploring for most of the days. Great stay and would return again!!

We only had very hot water, no cold, our air conditioner rattled and made it hard to sleep, and the duvet had no cover on it. But great location and very friendly service.

OVERALL: I stayed here for three nights while I attended a conference. Overall I thought it was a fantastic place and would not hesitate to stay there again on a future visit to Montreal! ROOMS: Extremely clean, new, and refreshed. Beds were comfortable and a variety of pillows (firm vs. soft) were provided. There were ample outlets (standard electrical and USB) at the desk and bedside lamp, just as you'd need. Lighting was good. Two soft white robes were provided and housekeeping was consistent and great. My only quibbles on the room (638): The window faced an alley way/side of a building, and as such, there was basically no view and no significant natural light. In addition, the location of the toilet and the bathroom vanity were such that there was insufficient leg room while seated on the toilet -- and I'm 5'3”! For future stays, I would simply work to avoid that room due to those issues. SERVICE: Everyone at the front desk was lovely! Very helpful at check-in as well as departure (I required a very early taxi ride -- they helped me think about timing and also called the cab for me). Extremely courteous. OTHER: There is a little café (Les Moulins la Fayette) inside the hotel which serves great coffee and fantastic pastries. Staff were lovely and friendly. LOCATION: Directly across from the conference center -- I went in March and didn't even take a coat to the conference, simply dashed across the street! For meals, there are countless delicious restaurants within a 5-minute walk.

We stayed a couple of nights pre-cruise to acclimatise and enjoy Montreal in the early Summer. We had a pleasant stay, very personable staff and a decent room. Novotel fittings seem to lean toward minimalist scandi which can give an air of being sp****, but bedding was very comfortable. Additional pillows appeared on request. Breakfast was interesting, again possibly post-covid staffing issues as things took a while but the staff were again very engaging. Great location on Rue de la Montagne with easy access to public transit and taxis to the port. Definitely would stay here again.

I came for a medical training in September 2022. - Bad customer service. Dubious practice on room rates. When I first booked in June, I was told I could book with a preferential rate from the training organiser. It turned out the preferential rate was more expensive than booking at the hotel directly (you get 15% discount if you stay more than 3 nights). I called the hotel, and the lady in charge said they couldn’t do anything, she wouldn’t apply the 15% discount on top of the conference preferential rate. That seemed fair to me, as I understand hotels lost a lot of business during the pandemic and tried to balance the finances. At that time I booked a room with 2 queen beds but I wasn’t sure if my husband and son would join, so I declared it would be for 1 adult only. In September, I contacted the hotel and asked to update the room occupancy to 2 adults and 1 child. THEY CHANGED the room rate and rose the price (instead of less than $1000 for 4 nights, it went to $1300!). When I asked why, they said bc I changed the booking, so they update to the new rate at the time of the change. It is still exactly the same room! I don’t mind paying more in taxes bc more people stay in the same room, but changing the rate, when they knew I was part of the conference and wouldn’t change hotel, was a bit lame… I called the same conference lady and asked if I could revert back to the conference rate. She said no, bc the conference rate has expired and she wouldn’t give it as a commercial gesture because she gets commissions on the bookings… what a bad customer service! Not sure if it was done on purpose, the room I got was a room just outside the elevator, so noisy… And we checked in, the 2 people in front of us complained very loudly about the hotel… - Room not clean and missing toiletries The beds and pillows were comfortable. They didn’t have a duvet cover, but 2 flat sheets… the duvets and the pillows were yellow from stains. The bedside tables were dusty. Carpets dirty (not the same colour, although the same patterns, as the ones in the corridors). In the bathroom, there were only soap bars, no shampoo or conditioners. I only got them because one morning, I saw a cleaning lady in the corridors and asked if she had any shampoos etc. To my surprise, she did and gave them to me. - Conference rooms neglected We had tea/coffees and pastries in the morning of the first day… but they were not refilled after lunch or the days after… unless we asked. And even after asking, we wouldn’t get hot water for tea… The toilets near the conference rooms either had missing hand soap or missing paper towels to dry your hands…. I get it that the hotel wanted to save money after being under occupied during the pandemic… but for a 4 star hotel, I expected better and better customer service. The hotel is well located, in the city centre… but I won’t be back if I have to come to another conference in Montréal.

Hotel was at a good location but our room was really medium on cleanliness. At the beginning, we were missing towels and had to ask to them. The breakfast was really poor.

We recently stayed at the Novotel Montreal Airport and had a great stay. The hotel was clean, and the rooms were spacious. The staff were very welcoming and took great care of us. Thank you to Rose at the Bar! She was amazing and made us feel at home. We met Tony, the General Manager when we checked out. Such a nice guy! Very friendly and welcoming and made sure that we were taken care of during our stay. I would definitely return to the Novotel Montreal Airport if in Montreal again. What a fantastic team!

Such friendly staff and our room was amazing! Best experience we’ve had in our whole trip. We were celebrating our anniversary and all the “big” hotels that we stayed at for our road trip were unfortunately disasters. The staff at hotel Brossard were so nice and they even have electric charging stations and a complimentary breakfast. Pic included is of the seating area for breakfast. Definitely a hotel that goes above and beyond!
