Detailed Reviews
I stayed at this hotel a few weeks ago with my family to ge out of the house. At first I was scared to come to Montreal with everything going on but gave it a chance. I have to say that I felt very safe staying at this hotel. Not only are there sanitizer stations all around the public areas, the receptionnist had a mask on behind the protective glass, they had mini sanitizer bottles and nice reusable masks for sale at the reception. Everyone I walked by in the hotel was wearing a mask. I was impressed :)

This hotel is located right opposite china Town and very close to downtown. We spent our first evening walking to the canal and downtown. The metro station is also very close. They had hand sanitizers throughout the hotel and masks were compulsory when not in the room. We felt comfortable staying here.

Very well situated, close to St. Catherines Street and just around the corner from the person I was visiting in Montreal. Because their restaurant is closed (since Covid) it was important for me to be able to walk a short distance (6 minutes max and others closer than that) for coffee and food. There are tons of options as Chinatown is right next door but lots of other options can be found on St. Catherines Street. The staff was very polite and helpful and as my french is very basic they recognized that and quickly switched to English. I booked through Hotels.com and got a good price for the 11th floor room which was equipped with a fridge, microwave and an Italian brand coffee maker, albeit it was small but it was fine for one person. The lobby is spectacular!

Stayed here with a large group to attend the biodiversity conference around the corner. The rates were reasonable but staying here was absolute hell. No one’s rooms were cleaned, some were left for over a week with no cleaning provided, if you went to the front desk every person would lie and say it’s because you’re putting the cleaning sign on the door (which is universally understood as the sign to come in and clean but apparently not here) or because you’re supposed to go to reception every time and give permission to enter your room, this turned out to be total nonsense because we found out the actual reason later - they had not been prepared for the hotel to be full despite a conference being held 10 minutes away so when the hotel was full they did not have enough cleaning staff available to clean the rooms. Why did the staff all lie and not just tell us this? Other negative points included the room being so dark you can’t see your clothes in the cupboards, even when rooms were cleaned they would skip emptying full bins or providing toilet paper, and one morning after their staff Christmas party they just didn’t bother to serve anyone with breakfast, just cancelled it entirely because they were presumably all hungover. We were also told on check in that a credit card would be taken for security but no money would be taken from the card - however everyone had $100 deducted on providing this card. Again, they always lied about the reasons for anything going wrong. I was also quite irritated because I wanted to rent a meeting room for 30 minutes each morning and they wanted to charge an absolutely absurd amount for this, but I was told by staff on the phone that there are tonnes of places just to hang out there so a meeting room wouldn’t be needed. Again, this turned out to be a total lie, there were no places to meet in the hotel during the winter period, just one bench by reception and a couple seats near the lobby. Again - why would you mislead us about this, it’s so bizarre. Also, not the hotels fault, but this is not a very nice area and you can’t spend any time standing outside the hotel without being harassed for money or cigarettes.

So I booked this hotel for 5 evenings. This was our first time staying in Montreal. My wife then read me the google online reviews which weren’t very flattering. We were a bit hesitant and thought about cancelling and switching hotels last minute. However, we were so tired from our travels and decided to give it a try for at least one night. I must say it was a very pleasant stay and we ended up staying the entire 5 nights. It was clean, quite and the staff were exceptional. The TV is a bit small and outdated but this wasn’t really a big deal. You have to request room cleaning 24 hrs in advance. The valet parking is off site and you need to call 20 minutes before planning to leave to get your vehicle. All of this was explained on check in and there were no issues with either. The free internet is slow and we just paid an extra $5/day for their premium internet and it worked well. I just want to say that you shouldn’t expect them to drop everything to serve to your every need. I inquired about a small issue and was told they will send someone but never did. It was a small matter so I didn’t care. I booked directly through their website and it cost me $1200 (total) less than if I would have booked it with Expedia and $600 less than with hot wire. The rate I got was 230 per night (Mid October stay). Their location is their main attractive feature. They were VERY centrally located and close to everything. There are a lot of homeless people around but again what down town area doesn’t have them. You will be approached several times but they were harmless and not very pushy, and although sad, they seemed like part of the culture there. I saw young girls walking the street on their own at late hours so my assumption here is that the area is fairly safe. If you are a relaxed laid back person stay here for a good deal. If you are uptight and want everything perfect and to your convenience then maybe this is not the hotel for you. We really enjoyed our stay and would came back again.

The hotel is right next to China town. Good location and walkable to most attractions.
Smaller boutique style. The staff is nice, the rooms are decent but we checked in and found a really gross brown stain on our head board!
We reported it and showed a picture to the front desk. She asked if it would be ok for room service to come in to clean it while we were out and we said yes please!
No one ever came. So we had to sleep in a bed with a disgusting stain our entire 3 day stay. That was truly disappointing.
Also a heads up they don’t provide any maid service during your stay (I think this is due to covid protocol) just kind of a let down when you’re paying over $250/night that you get zero housekeeping services.
I wish I could give this place a glowing fabulous review but the next stain situation really left a terrible impression and ruined our stay.

My work booked me a weeks stay at this hotel. Upon checking in the front desk operator was so rude. He asked me to put a credit card on file when my work had already just payed it luck thing my work was able to email a receipt at or I would have had no where to stay. Second when I went up to my room it liked as though it had not been cleaned for quite some time. There were long hairs all over the washroom. Lastly when I would leave the hotel for work and come back front desk operator would not me back up to my room until I would confirm the i was staying in by showing him my card. I feel that the first desk operator was very racist and I am so disappointed by my stay here.

Dear MrJuzar, First and above all I would like to present to you our apology in regard to the situation you experience during your stay with us. Our first goal is to make all our guest feel welcomed and safe when the step into our hotel. We consistently try our best to serve our guest equally regardless of their status such as, religion, language, nationality, and cultural diversity for many years. The unfortunate incident that you faced has been carefully examined by me. I suppose there are a few points that I feel compelled to explain; In your statement, you declared that we asked you to put a credit card on file when your work had already paid for your room – this is common practice for the hotel to ask our guest to provide a form of guarantee for their stay even when your stay is being paid by a third party. Second, regarding the issue with housekeeping, the matter was discussed with you on the follow in day. Third, the issue with the employee asking for identification; during this time of COVID-19 we the hotel have taken extra measure to ensure our guest safety ex have hand sanitizing stations in the hotel lobby, enforcing the provincial law of wearing face covering while indoors, etc. One of the measures that we imposed was is asking for verification before allowing people to access the elevators that gives access to our guest’s floor. This is in no way an act of racism. We pride ourselves in knowing our guest. The employee in question came back from his 2 days off work, he was not present when you checked in the night before. He had not had the pleasure in greeting you before that very moment. But to avoid any such situation the procedure has been review to much success. Kindly I would like to clarify once again that such complaints from our guest are taken very seriously by the hotel management team and appropriate measure have been introduced to avoid any similar situation in the future. Once again, I would like to apologize for the experience you had with us and I would be more than happy to welcome you again to make you feel more comfortable on your next stay.

We checked in early and our room was ready for occupancy in short order. The 12th floor room is smaller but be were only there to sleep so not a problem. The location was 2 blocks from the Montreal Jazz Festival, our goal. Zero 1 is also well located with many restaurants in the area and kitty-corner to Chinatown. A short walk gets you to Old Montreal. A cab ride to/from the airport was not outrageous at $42.

This hotel was rated as a 4 star, and priced as such without meeting the expectations of a 4 star hotel at all. The location was convenient but not safe as it backed onto an alley way with many displaced persons. There was no additional security precautions taken by the hotel or anything to monitor this. We went to the convenience store attached to the hotel to get a toothbrush (because the front desk could not provide) and were asked for drug utensils by people on the street which was very uncomfortable. The Valet parking was barely valet, they tell you to call down 15 minutes before to obtain your vehicle, it took us well over an hour to get our car back at which point we had to forget it and uber to our destination and back because we had missed our lunch reservation. The rooms were fine, poor layout in the washroom it was definitely a mistake. This hotel should be downgraded to 3 and definitely not advertised as 4 stars.

the bedding is very good - some of the cheaper rooms are a bit dirtier (like the curtains behind the radiator or the table and chairs moving) but overall this hotel is always excellent for a short stay if you like the modern and the city center. 2 steps from Chinatown, 5 minutes walk from the orange line Place d'Armes, 8 minutes walk from Notre Dame Basilica and Old Montreal. And 5 minutes walk in the other direction of Place des Arts. We ask the front desk for a $100 blocked on your card if we smoke in the room, and they release the money at your check-out. Nice staff. Breakfast 20$ on site + taxes to be taken at the restaurant next door. Not necessary if you are able to manage, you will go to a cafe 2 steps away. The view is always magical.
