Hotels Near Le Baldaquin Montreal in Montreal

We stayed one week in this Courtyard by Marriott (Oct 2022). Located right on Rene Levesques Boulevard (former Dorchester). Walking distance to many sights. Our check in was very fast, we walked up, we were greeted by friendly young man and we made our way to the room, all within 10 mins. Our room was on the 10 floor and we had a partial view looking NE towards the Notre Dame Basilica. The gym is on the 11th floor and I must say that on occasion I could hear the weights being dropped on the floor by some inconsiderate simpleton. There IS a sign in the gym that mentions that this should be avoided. Nice gym great machines and great view. Our room featured a king bed and had good lighting, pillows, large bathroom, shampoo, soap and conditioner. The sink did have a slight ”bad smell” however. Apart from the rare noise from the gym, the room was very well insulated for sound. It was the most sound insulated room I have ever stayed in. The room was very clean. The mini fridge had a couple bottles of water. The room also had a ”pods” style coffee machine which we enjoyed all week. The TV had a wide selection of channels in both French and English and the screen can be tilted to face the bed. A Metro station (Place D'Armes) is nearby and the hotel has underground parking on location for those with a car, I am not sure what it costs. We ate one dinner in the restaurant in the lobby. The food was of good quality and very tasty but a bit overpriced. Conveniently, there is a large IGA grocery store one block up in the Complexe Dejardins where you will also find a pharmacy and other shops. The 747 airport bus stop is located across the street on Rene Levesque (heading TO the airport). The bus costs 11 dollars in COINS only. At about 10am our bus trip to the airport took about 30-35 mins. All the staff we interacted with were extremely friendly. They all spoke both French and English. We would stay here again on our next trip to Montreal but I must say, I found it a bit expensive $$$$$$$. Happy Travels.

The room is very good and the service is good. Park your car and go in at the passage of the small street and wait for the rolling shutter door to open. There is a heated swimming pool on the 14th floor of the hotel. The scenery is very good. You can see the scenery of the old port. It only takes a few minutes to go to the pedestrian street.

Apart from the first-class location, the hotel has nothing to recommend it. It is a few hundred meters away from the Lanzhou Beef Noodle Restaurant, a popular place in Chinatown, and not far from the Cathedral of Our Lady. There are no attractions around it! The only problem is that the hotel facilities are too old, the room has no windows and smells too bad!

Everything was as expected to the friendly front desk staff, clean room, comfortable bed and awesome location. You can walk to the old port, downtown and abundant shopping malls from the hotel. We didn’t use our car so the $30/night fee seems expensive. All around great stay in an awesome city.

Excellent customer service. We had a small problem in our room and it was immediately taken care of by maintenance, and upon checkout they comped our valet parking. My family has been staying here for many years and we have always enjoyed the extra space, full amenities, and complimentary buffet breakfast. It is very clean and, although it may seem a little dated in this Instagram era of fancy wallpaper, it is actually beneficial to have three times the amount of space compared to hotels three times the price. You can get a huge king size room with a full kitchen, free breakfast, dining table, 4 dining chairs, armchair and ottoman, desk and comfortable work chair, 2 robes and two closets, plus an elevator and swimming pool for only $260 Canadian including tax!

Quite disappointed with the room provided vis-a-vis what was reserved. Two double beds instead of two queens was a tight squeeze for our family. I fail to understand why this happened, particularly since the room was booked two months in advance of arrival & secured with a credit card. I was told the hotel was fully booked for the weekend so the issue could not be remedied. That said, our room was on the pool level which was kind of nice. The room was clean and included a small fridge plus a safe. There was also a steamer which was handy for touching up formal attire. The hallways seemed a bit dim & May benefit from an update. They were quiet, without echos, which was nice however. Finally, the Metro station can be easily accessed through the building which is a bonus! Based on overall experience, I would recommend this hotel. I may consider it for future trips to Montreal but might be a bit apprehensive based on the room switch which occurred.

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.

We stayed during Covid-19. We chose this hotel because of its proximity to La Ronde. The parking is excellent- there is a small surface lot out front and a large surface lot out back. This is important for us as we have a big lifted pickup truck. There was plenty of room for it to park! The lobby is cool and looks like it would be fun during non Covid times. There is a plane hanging from the ceiling and pictures of planes all over, which we’re fun to see. Staff was great. We saw them cleaning frequently and they always had masks on. Hand sanitizer is everywhere. The bar & restaurant are closed. The pool and hot tub were open and did not require a reservation. They asked us to wear masks on the pool deck if social distancing wasn’t possible. We used the pool twice and were the only ones there both times. Pool towels were available at the pool. The room was a good size- two queen beds and a desk. Newly renovated and decently clean. We did a good clean of all touch points with Lysol wipes when we arrived, just to be safe. There was a fridge. There was a microwave on our floor but not in our room. There were 3 sets of towels in the room. We had to change rooms our second night. We were originally put in room 409 and there was a rambunctious family in 407. Starting at 7am, the kids were running up and down the hall, the door was banging, over and over. We sleep in so we were not impressed. We asked if they were checking out & were told by a lovely front desk clerk that they were there another night. We asked to move and she moved us to 621- it had a lovely view of the river. She commented that the hotel was quiet so there were lots of choices for quiet rooms. Strange that we weren’t spaced out at the start of that was the case. The second room was much quieter and we slept in until 10am without hearing a peep. The hotel is only about 10min to La Ronde amusement park by car, which was the purpose of our visit. We will be back again.

Water from shower head is very weak need to fix or change it.

There isn't anything near here except for the airport but it was nice being close to the airport for a good night's rest before flying out. The hotel would also be good for a business trip if you have to stay in the area and have a car. It does take about 20 to 30 minutes to get to the city from this hotel. The check in was quick and the hotel smells and looks clean. The room we stayed in needed a little help as the toilet paper holder was missing it's bar, the mini fridge was missing and the screw holes were quite visible and the some towels were quite frayed and in need of some replacement. The pool and hot tub were at a good temperature and there was lots of natural light in the area. There is a bathroom nearby which you can change in and the hotels are in the pool area. The TVs are pretty new but we couldn't find anything to watch so I would recommend bringing your own HDMI adapter. The hotel could do a better job for changeover of hotel rooms as the clocks showed the wrong time and the one went off unexpectedly at 6 am. There are better options in the city but if you are just going through Montreal or need a place near the airport this is a decent option for that and there is lots of parking.
