Hotel Le Cantlie Suites - Montreal 45.50159, -73.57677

We stayed at the Hotel Le Cantlie suites for 2 nights and the room was fantastic. Upon arrival the staff were a little surly, but that may be due to them expecting a big night with Toronto playing Montreal in the hockey... The Mez bar was a great place for a drink and, whilst you had to wait a while for your drink to arrive, it was definitely worth waiting for - I recommend the Flirtini for the ladies. The kitchen was a bonus and, with a few ingredients from the supermarket up on Avenue du Parc, the extra you spent on the lovely room is saved by cooking yourself a meal rather than eating out. There is a business centre with a printer which was handy as we were booking travel and accomodation on the fly. Would I stay here again? Absolutely.

I booked three nights at the Hotel Cantlie because of the size of the rooms for the price. We had an executive suite which consist of a seperate bedroom and living room/kitchen. The reason for having a lot of room for the money is because the hotel is pretty run down but if you overlook that it's a pretty good deal. We had to leave a day early but the manager would not refund our money even though we tried to cancel a Saturday night resveration on a Friday morning. This is pretty sleazy and keep that in mind when booking. Oh, and the parking is not included and the breakfast is your typical motel food for a lot of money.

We will stay there again. Great location and convenient to shopping and local transportation. Hotel personnel were cheerful and very helpful.

The room was comfortable and clean..housekeeping was very good and it was in a great location. Our only complaint was the lighting in the room...difficult to read in, could use more lamps and the TV was small though adequate.

Friendly staff, great location, great value

This is a decent, well located, older hotel. Staff was always pleasant, rooms were clean and bed was really comfortable. Just keep in mind that is an older style, one-off hotel and not a new hotel that is part of a large chain. With that in mind, I would recommend it if that is what you are looking for.

The hotel was in a great location for us, close to downtown shopping and restaurants. We will definitely return.

excellent location for shopping and dinning. you can park the car and walk to everything, even old Montreal / water front. or take the Metro, which is very clean and safe.

It is clean, friendly, and efficient. When I asked for some restaurants nearby for either seafood or pasta, a fantastic place was recommended, The hotel even gave me a note that as a customer of the hotel, I could get 20% discount! On the 2nd day of the stay, it was raining, at the front desk, I was asked whether I need an umbrella (without me asking for one!). They had many umbrellas for customers. I loved this hotel. The only thing that I personally did not need was some sort of scent (a spray?) when I checked into my room. I do need any strong smell or any chemicals. Otherwise, this would have been perfect! Thanks for all the hospitality.

Greatl location, helpful staff. We arrived, walked into our room and decided to upgrade to the executive suite from the double-queen. The staff were patient, helpful, cordial, and efficient. In less than five minutes we were on our way to the new room. While the additional cost of adding another guest to our room on top of the upgrade was a bit unnecessary in my mind, the space and comforts are still excellent. I heartily recommend, especially if you are staying for 3 or more nights since the kitchenette (stove, sink, microwave, fridge, dishes, coffemaker, etc.) and the small dining area are perfect for longer stays - get some groceries and chill.

this is an excellent choice for people staying more than 1 night, location is great and size of rooms and the small kitchens is a great plus. Can't beat the location! Would stay here again and recommend to others.

I have stayed at the Cantlie Suites twice now and would go back again. The main draw is the location, downtown on Sherbrooke street, walking distance from shops and transport. The hotel decor is a little dated but the rooms are spotless, large and comfortable. The kitchenettes are useful for longer stays. There is a nice pool on the roof and superb city views from up there too! I noticed a lot of KLM flight crew staying there this time so it is obviously a popular choice for them. No complaints from me about the Cantlie!

Hotel le Cantlie is quite nice. The hotel is at the foot of Mount Royal. It is just a block and a half or so away from a stop on the green line of the metro, which is four stops or so away from the main metro hub, Berri-UQAM. If you'll be staying in town for more than a few days, go to any metro stop and buy a week-long pass, which will get you on any metro or city bus. The hotel is rather nicely appointed. We loved having a kitchenette, which included a stove, oven, sink, microwave, and fridge. The maids even wash your dishes when they clean your room! There is a pool way up on the roof: the 28th floor, with a nice view of downtown. They have a free business center with three computers (which don't always work as one might hope, but that's a minor quibble). Also, they have a laundry room: two washers, two dryers, and a soap dispenser. You must pay for these DIY laundry services, but we much preferred to do our laundry in the evening at our own hotel rather than losing time during the day at a laundromat. Great experience overall!

It was overpowering & the hotel would not move us to a different suite. They brought in an air freshner machine which required us to leave the room for over an hour at night & it still did not make much difference

The hotel was amazing and located in a busy, but nice area in Montreal. It was convenient to get to most places. The only problem was that the prices for parking and the restaurant were a little high. Great service and friendly atmosphere otherwise.

For the price, I thought this hotel was a good choice. There were three of us to the room, and this was one of the hotels in this price range that had the adjoining room with a sleep sofa that made it very comfortable for three people. The only issue we had was the old television. We couldn't get it to stay on the channel we wanted. It was very tempermental and needs to be upgraded. The mezzanine cafe was very nice. The attached restaurant was too expensive for the price of the hotel.

My 14 year old daughter and I stayed for 3 nights. We loved the neighborhood and the location close to the Metro. The roof top pool was a nice feature considering the great weather we had. The room was clean and spacious and very quiet, even though it was right next to the elevator. We had a great time!

If you're planning on staying in Montreal for a quick 2-4 day stay, and it's a group, Hotel Le Cantile Suites is a great choice. Convenient location to the nightlife, spacious rooms, and friendly support staff. Good price considering the size of the rooms.

We are frequent visitors to Montreal -- my spouse is a former Montrealer. Le Cantlie is an excellent hotel -- especially if you opt for the executive suite. All rooms come with kitchens, I believe. I recommend getting Montreal bagels and cream cheese (from St. Viateur Bagel Factory) and pastries from Premier Mousin to stock the kitchen. The latter is a cafe chain in the city. There is one just down the street from the Cantlie on Sherbrooke, past the Fine Arts Museum. The hotel is well situated (stay away from hotels around Rene Levesque St -- you get no sense of what the city is about in that convention and business area. Le Cantlie is close to McGill Univ and a block away from the Ste. Catherine St. shopping area. The Fine Arts Museum is two blocks away and a fabulous museum -- free, too, except for the special shows. As for the hotel itself: the beds are very comfortable. Rooms are well appointed. We like the suite, although it's not really a separate bedroom. You have glass doors with gauzy curtains separating the bedroom area from the living room/kitchen area. Not as private (if you've got kids or friends sleeping on the pull out couch) as one might like, but workable. Personnel are fine, if not super friendly. We do want to put in a good work for Daniel, one of the valets in the parking garage. He works the evening shift and was wonderful. He's been there as long as we've been staying at the Cantlie.

The Search For One-Eyed Jimmy. This place ROCKS!! OK, it's not the 4 quarters. Yeah, it's not even the Mary go, or a Comfort whatever. It's a block from Peel Metro, unofficial Gateway To The Universe. They park your freakin car and get it for you an hour later if you want it. Oh yeah, better leave your truck at home -- won't fit in the garage. Rooftop pooooool -- how cool are we? Tiny elevators you sometimes have to ride up to ride down -- Spend a minute with your neighbors. Small TV I never had time to watch anyway. Bathroom sink was cracked, but didn't leak my tooth paste spittle. Charm! Really friendly staff and guests. This is a hidden jewel. Not for my sister with the $10,000 ring or my neighbor the junkie. Definitely for families with small kids (us), people too old for Ronald M's house, teachers and lawyers on a budget, the overweight poet who sometimes forgets to floss, and the Chinese immigrant he married. We go stay, we stay go? Stay here!! Go! See ya there!

On the fringe of downtown. Long walk to Old Montreal. Housekeeping wasn't the best.

We stayed here with our 3 kids while visiting Montreal. The neighborhood is vibrant. We were able to walk all over and to easily access Metro and the underground mall when needed. The staff was helpful. Our room was large and very comfortable. The rooftop pool was a pleasant addition. We would return in a second.

The staff at the hotel was indifferent and unhelpful.

Great location close to everything; excellent value; friendly, helpful staff

Really enjoyed our 2-night stay. Friendly service. Clean, well-appointed rooms.

It was our first time traveling to the French-speaking province. We were told that people were different there. I guess we just did to think that they would be so different at this hotel, which seems to be a very international place. We heard their guests speaking Russian, Spanish and perhaps Arabic. During check-in a very pleasant receptionist would mispronounce our last name. I corrected her once thinking that it might be an honest mistake. She would mispronounce it again. I corrected her the second time and guest what? She would say it incorrectly the third time. Looked like she was just teasing us. Another time we asked a different receptionist for a good place to eat. She directed us to a street 30 minutes (walking) away from the hotel. It turns to be a very unattractive and dirty part of the city with a huge variety of “adult” stores and “adult” show. Our 8 y.o. had a lot of “fun” window shopping. We tried out faith the “last” third time. I saw a very attractive part of Montreal in the magazine and asked a receptionist where it might be. He told us that it was the French part of the town and explained how to get there. When we got there of cause it did not look like anything we were looking for (surprise-surprise). We just wasted 2 hours of our time which is a lot when you have only 2 days. After all that we gave up asking anything at the reception. PS If you do not speak French do your homework yourself.

This hotel is centrally located with easy access to restaurant and shopping area. However, if you have an SUV, the hotel parking can not accomodate you, which we find out on a rainy day. The room is nice with a good size kitchen. The bathroom is very small and definitely need a makeover. There is no gym in the hotel and the swimming pool is on the roof, which means you may not be able to use it most of the time considering the weather there. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Convenient and with nice views of the city.

Hotel looks and feels old and tired. Sense of decor is very dated. Checking in was crazy with way too many people for the desk to handle and for the reception area to hold. There was a wait for the extremely slow elevators. The bed was not made when we got to our room. Drains in bathrooms were slow. Must say the staff were commendably responsive when we called their attention. Location was excellent. Considering the number of other hotels in the area, I will stay elsewhere next time.

Good things: Great location. Attentive staff. Comfortable bed. Competitive rates. Not so good things: AC inadequate; AC unit had to be replaced after I returned from a dinner; late night for that nonsense. Refrigerator took 30 hours to form ice cubes.

We found the rooms to be clean and quiet and comfortable and the staff very helpful. Excellent value for the money.

My wife and I stayed in this hotel for 4 nights in June. The concrete facade of the hotel is not impressive from the outside but the suites are roomy and very clean. Nice rooftop deck with pool and city views. Location is great for downtown shopping,access to Parc Mont-Royal (head straight up Rue Peel), and the metro station. The old port area of Montreal is about a 25-30 minute walk away. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay here again.

Hotel is in a very good location. While they try to really keep the rooms clean, the decor and everything about the hotel is a little dated and in serious need of updating. Our first assigned room, a king with sofa was very musty and smelly but we were reassigned a different room when we went back to the front desk and the staff were good about it. Second room was much better but we ended up getting a two queen room which less roomy. The quality of room service food left a lot to be desired. One good thing though is the staff who are nice and helpful.

This hotel was fantastic. The location is amazing- Métro was on the other side, major shopping was two streets away, and it was minutes to Vieux Montréal by Métro. The hotel staff was very efficient and knowledgeable of the area. I booked a Queen and Pull-Out bed, and the staff, for no extra cost, was able to get me two Queens without me even asking! The only downside was the parking. It's not the hotel's fault, as all of the city charges for parking. They only have a few SUV spaces available at the hotel, so the first night I had to park at the adjacent Marriott for an extra C$3. The parking price listed here was also for the day, not overnight (overnight is higher than the max day), but the spot is reserved for the duration of your stay and you can come and go as you please. Street parking is available, but it's pay during the day, and free at night. All in all, it was a minor annoyance but if you fly in and/or don't have a car, you don't have to worry about it. All in all, a fantastic hotel.

The hotel is old and outdated. There are many cracks and chips in furnitures and fixtures. Although we stayed in a suite with kitchen and dining table, we could not be comfortable in using or touching any of the appliances because it feels filthy and dirty. The bathroom has no ventilation. The matress is sunken in the middle and very uncomfortable. The cartpet is old and dirty. There is parking and wireless internet (very weak signal) with additional charges. Half of the staff are friendly. Within the same neighborhood, there are many other choices for similar price range. I would not recommend to any of my friends and families.

Visiting McGill, so location was good for that reason and is right by the metro and it is easy to walk to Parc to catch the bus to Outremont and the Plateau, but we were surrounded by 18-year-olds from the States and Ontario visiting Montreal to drink. Hotel is clean, decor a bit dated, the staff are friendly, and the view from the rooftop pool is quite nice.

The room was large and comfortable. Good value for the money. The location and neighborhood was good. Would recommend for business or pleasure.

This hotel was perfect for a bachelor weekend. We were walking distance from the pubs and a short cab from the clubs. It was perfect.

When we checked in we needed a HC room and they managed to upcharge us to get one. Then it was so smoke satiated they had to send machinery to ozinate the room. Helped a little but still a smoke-smelling room.

We loved the whole thing! Great down comforters, pillows, nice beds! A class act!
