Opus Hotel Montreal

Very nice...especially for those with overflowing wallets.

My wife and I shared a very enjoyable pair of evenings in the Opus and have only a few pieces of advice. 1) Trust the advice of the other reviews on this site and demand a room on the opposite side of the hotel from the nightclub. I have no idea how anyone could sleep through that noise sleeping above it. 2) Don't touch anything in the fridge. A mini-bar was available in our room with some extremely high priced items. Wow. Just Wow. 3) We felt a little under-dressed the whole time we were there. Bring your most posh attire...and your Ferarri. 4) Only valet parking is available. We saved some money by parking on the street. Those things said, we had a lovely room, a wonderful time, and a great location in the city and plan on reccomending the hotel to our friends.

Becareful which side your room is on- Loud

Our room was on the same side as the lounge/function area, which meant that each night in our room, so you were part of the party until it ended- usually around 3 am- so music, people talking outside. Very nice hotel - modern comfortable but when you go to hotel you plan on being able to go to bed before 3 am

Great service, great location, great hotel.

Very nice all around experience. Location is superb. Room appointments are very nice. Warm and accomodating even though we are American :) Only thing to watch out for is the valet service... kinda pricey (approx $26 CDN/day).

Nice Hotel, Good Location...BUT!

The Opus Hotel is in a great location of downtown Montreal right off of St. Laurent and very close to everything including restaurants & nightlife. The rooms are cool, modern, and nicely sized. The front desk staff was great. There is also a 24hr convenience store right across the street which comes in real handy for late night beer, wine, and snack runs. Ok so now the "Cons" and keep in mind that we stayed here for NYE so I'm sure that this is not a reflection of how the hotel always is but since this is the only date we stayed this is the only feedback I can give. The problem that I had was after a long 8.5 hour snowy drive from Philadelphia I was ready to check in and catch a little nap. Unfortunately for me the band for their NYE party was sound checking at the time I arrived. So in my room on the second floor for about 45 minutes I could not get any rest due to a repetitive drum that just kept going and going like the energizer bunny. Believe me I know that the squeaky wheel gets oiled but after the long drive i just didn't have the energy to complain plus every few minutes i kept saying to myself this can't possibly go on much longer. Also to kind of add insult to injury when I asked about the NYE's activities for the night. I was told that the hotel was having two separate parties for the night one in their small restaurant and another in their small bar/lounge with a cover charge of $80 per person. Keep in mind that this was per outlet, per person so if we wanted to celebrate NYE's in their tiny restaurant and also in their small hotel bar/lounge it would have been $160 per person, which we thought was ridiculous. So finally after coming back from hanging out elsewhere due to their extremely overpriced activitieds we were ready to get some sleep but we were kept awake for awhile by a group of young guys next door still partying and bringing in the New Year in their room. To the hotels credit they eventually sent security to handle the situation. But all in

Room Service was very poor

The hotel itself and front desk staff/concierge were wonderful. Our room was extremely nice as well. The room service attendants made the bed, changed towels and did general cleaning very well, but couldn't manage to leave the quantity of coffee (2 for each of us) we requested during our whole stay. They would also sometimes leave dirty coffee cups and wine glasses. Small thing but irritating to call Housekeeping each time we arrived back at our room. Overall though, the location was fantastic. Check out Prince Arthur for fantastic shops, cafes and general people watching opportunities. Would also highly recommend taking the Metro down to Old Montreal and prepare to spend the day. Wear comfortable shoes as you will walk, walk, walk!

Great

The hotel's architecture is very modern, the staf is great, and it is located walking distance to great restaurants and clubs.

Great style and location

Beautiful style and decor, and in a great location for good bars, cafes and restaurants. Only criticism is the dim lighting in the rooms - whilst there are lots of accent lights, the room remains quite dark even when they are all on.

Outstanding Opus

My fiancee and I were thrilled with our stay at Opus. My conversations with the concierge staff prior to the stay were very pleasant and they followed up with everything to a "tee." The staff confirmed our initial impression of them upon our arrival. Very courteous, anticipatory and helpful. The hotel's location made for an easy to commute to all of our destinations in the city (many of them walking). Our room was also very cool. Uniquely furnished with great attention to detail. The only negative was the poor lighting in combination with the dark walls. This made finding things a little cumbersome. Though great for a romantic getaway, I would not recommend this hotel to business travelers. It's simply not set up for that, and frankly, shouldn't try to be. Thank you, Opus, for a terrific experience!
