The room was utterly charming, with a lovely view of the river, an exposed brick wall, and comfy bed. I loved the coffee bar and wine glasses (which I used!) in the armoire, and an upholstered chair for reading. The shower was unbelievably luxurious. The staff was exceptional. From the front desk staff, to the concierge, to the valets, they were friendly and very helpful to two slightly bewildered American tourists visiting Montreal for the first time. The valet parking was effortless (for us!). We arrived early and the valet was right there to greet us by name. They not only securely stored our luggage until we could check in, they also brought our bags up to our room after check in. The location was perfect; just steps from everything in the old city (restaurants, shops, attractions, the river walk). It was a short 10 minute walk to a Metro station that took us all over Montreal. I can’t say enough good things about the Auberge du Vieux-Port. It’s the best!
