Hotels near Vitrine Culturelle Montreal in Montreal

Close to Chinatown and old port. Room is small and no view. The hotel will charge $4/luggage if you want to leave your luggages in the reception—that’s crazy. We didn’t pay, so we need to carry out luggages to walk around the city until our train in the evening.

On the negative side first because that’s what you’re here for…The double room was a bit small but fine for a solo traveller like myself. The breakfast bar left something to be desired. I wish the rooms were bigger and the breakfast more expansive (there were no gluten free options). So I couldn’t even have a coffee and toast for breakfast. Literally fruit, juice, yoghurt and boiled eggs. They did have Rice Krispies tho' and I personally can tolerate that. Some others can’t. And the milk is whole milk. No options for skim. That was disgusting on my Rice Krispies. Maybe the selection is better in the summer season… But on the positive side….the hotel is located in the center of all the festival action, Place des Arts,Maison Symphonique, restaurants. You cannot beat that unless you want to pay double. The room was cheaper than most AirBnB rooms available in the same area. The hotel is clean and well maintained. The staff are knowledgeable and courteous. The A/C and heating systems allow you to easily set your temperature and get the room cozy, especially important for Montréal in February or to cool your room in July. Anyway, I’ll be returning. The scene is too good in Montréal to keep me away and this hotel is a great budget choice. You can buy breakfast locally if it's a problem for you

The room and toilet are still clean, but there is a lot of garbage at the entrance of the hotel, and there are tramps nearby.

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.

I’ll start this review by saying something nice: this is an inexpensive hotel. If price is your one concern, read no further. I’d stayed at this hotel twice before. It’s more of a glorified dorm or hostel than anything else. And that was OK in the past. On this visit, it seemed that the management had just stopped paying attention. The chain on the toilet was broken. The carpet in the halls is dirty and threadbare. The blinds in our room were askew (see photo). One power outlet didn’t have a plastic fitting around it, so plugs fell out (see photo). The sink basin in the bathroom is detached partially from the wall. There was no hand or bar soap anywhere in the room, which seemed odd, especially for this time in history. There was an iron but no ironing board in the closet, which did however contain a full-sized child’s playpen. The hot water heater takes up half the bathroom (see photo). The towels were like tissue paper. But it was clean! Just be forewarned: you’re getting exactly what you pay for here. I think I’m done with this place.

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Old Montreal. The service and staff were great and we felt very much looked after during our stay. I would recommend this hotel for anyone wanting to walk around and explore the city as it is located in the middle of pedestrian friendly streets and there is so much to see and do and new adventures around ever corner. We are looking forward to returning very soon.

Satisfied after traveling jxw

The hotel was very central to all the place we wanted to be. It seemed like a 20 min walk to everywhere. Chinatown, Old Montreal, Waterfront, St Catherine street to city centre and the other way to The Gay Village. There are a lot of people that hang around in the streets around the hotel but it seems to be a big issue in Montreal in general. We never felt unsafe but we are from Toronto. The room was very quiet, clean and comfortable. We stayed in a Panoramic rooms so we had a corner and a lounge. The rooms with just the beds are very small, it was nice having the extra space. They did not clean the rooms due to Covid which was fine but there is no where to dry a towel so we had to be creative. The bed was comfortable thought because it was not fully made up each day it got to be a bit of a mess and was harder to fix. The AC in the bedroom blows right on your head! The Lobby smelled wonderful and was clean and the staff were pleasant and helpful. All in all great place and we would stay again.

Location is great if you want to be close to China town or old Montreal. It is about a 30 minute walk to downtown. Although parking is pricey it was worth it since the under ground garage was clean, bright convenient and safe!! Just make sure your ticket to go in and out works properly, it can get stressful since the garage is a bit on the tight side to have to back up with cars behind you when the ticket won’t let you out. I stayed in room 1409 and was large and clean, but there was a vacuum sound that would go on and off throughout the day, however we were out exploring for most of the days. Great stay and would return again!!

I stayed one night at the hotel because I had an appointment early the following morning, 400 meters away. When I checked in, the woman at the front desk was very nice. She told me that It was possible to leave my car until 1pm (instead of 11:30am) for free. The following morning, it was a man, 55 years old. He asked me to give him 5$ in cash just because I was going to leave my car a bit longer at the parking. He told me 3 times, you will give it to me in cash ! After my appointment I came back to pick up my car’s key, and this time it was another lady, very nice too, she didn’t ask me the 5$. This man tried to steal me 5$. Your hotel has already plenty of bad review, how come you do that ??!
