Hotels near LensCrafters 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

We initially booked at Best Western Europa (on Drummond) in Montreal and arrived after midnight. We travelled from Toronto and after checking in we were given room keys for the 2nd floor (can't remember the room number). The hotel is in dire need of an upgrade and this should begin from the Lobby area. The carpeting area along the corridors look extremely tired. The smell of the corridors is awful. It's almost on par with a hostel. The room we were initially given on the 2nd floor was deplorable and the room/corridor smelt like cigarettes and mold (as though the air conditioner was dripping into the carpet and the smell circulated during the drying process). I can tell the cleaning staff cleaned it as best as they could but the disappointment was not the cleanliness of the room but the tiredness of its appearance. The room(s) (I'm sure not only that room but all of them on the same floor) is too small and too shabby for the amount of money being charged per night. On taking one look at the said room upon entry, I immediately went back to the Front Desk and immediately voiced my disapproval to the Front Desk Assistant. After a short discussion insisting that I change rooms, I was obliged and given keys to a room on the 5th Floor, which I can attest wasn't much better! The only differences were the wooden floor tiles and a 2nd bed (the room on the 2nd Floor had only 1 bed). I must mention at this time, this room was labeled an 'upgrade'!!!! I was charged an additional CAD $70.00 for a room that didn't meet the CAD $70.00 I was being charged. Needless to say, I got into bed. Took out my tablet. Checked online for another hotel. Booked it and checked out a few hours later. On checkout, I informed the Front Desk Agent that I needed to go and be refunded for my additional ten (10) days I had already paid for. The refund was done in front of me and I'm currently awaiting my VISA Card Statement to ensure that the refund was indeed done. If the Best Western intends to keep patrons coming to patronize their facilities in the future, an understanding of what is expected when stepping through the doors of their establishment is required. We DO NOT expect shabby, tired, moldy, smelly facilities. We DO NOT expect ridiculous fees for facilities that are rundown, fatigued and extremely worn out. We expect an establishment that is worthy of what is being charged. Mention must be made that the hotel we ended up staying at was a bit cheaper and had better rooms

Area: heart of downtown - shopping and commercial district. You can’t go wrong with the location. Check-in: arrived late at night so check-in was sort of smooth. However, I thought the parking arrangement need more attention esp the cost. Room: we stayed in studio suite with two double beds. It’s a good size room for small family. Had small kitchenette with all the necessary utensils. Also a small dining table for two. I thought the bad room was tad too small. Breakfast: it was included and was sort of basic with all regular items - eggs, bacon, cereal, yogurt, waffle, etc. good enough to get all fueled up for the day. Cost: I think hotels in Montreal drastically increases in price. For hotel like this, paying over $300+ is something I will be careful next time I come to visit Montreal. Maybe look for AirB&B options.

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 ??!

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.

Great little place. Staff are excellent, helpful, kind, and also bilingual. The parking is underground and a decent continental breakfast is included. The rooms are a great size and include a kitchenette. My room had a balcony which was nice. The hotel is in a great location and easy to get to. There is 15 minute parking out front so you may unload your bags. The temperature runs a little warmer than I would like; however, in Canada, in the winter - I would rather be warm than cold! The rooms are clean and comfortable in addition to sizeable. I felt safe and secure travelling alone here and I always appreciate that. I would definitely come back!

We were looking forward to our three night stay at Campus1 Montreal while we toured downtown with our kids. We checked in the first afternoon, but by the evening, the tickle in my throat had become a cough with a runny nose. By the morning we thought we should shorten our trip so asked about reducing our stay by one night - well ahead of the 24 hours notice that seemed to be the only thing required (we looked at the cancellation policy before we left). We were told that we would still have to pay for the final night even if we gave notice and checked out in the morning after our second night - because we were already checked in. Apparently you can't reduce your stay after you check in. We left early anyway because it seemed I was getting more ill and masking with a very runny nose is uncomfortable and difficult. On the plus side, the room was clean. The included breakfasts were good - basic, but a large selection. On the negative side, the towels were very small and thin. The mattresses were those vinyl jobs that while easy to keep clean are NOT comfortable at all. An extra mattress pad or blanket over the mattress itself could solve this. If you intend to use the common communal kitchen for any other meals, be aware that there are no pots, dishes, utensils, or dish soap of any kind. If you stay here, bring your own bedding, towels, and if you want to cook - bring your own kitchen items. Checkout on the second morning took a long time. There was a long line up and the staff seemed overwhelmed / unprepared. I overheard one staff member say to a customer, ”I don't know - I'm not even from this province.” I'd say they had a staff shortage problem - which seems to be common right now. Overall, I don't think this room was worth the per night money we spent on it and much less so because we had to pay for a night we couldn't use. We could have found something better for less money. We will not be staying here again.

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.

Enjoyed my stay at the Delta. The location is central and we walked everywhere including to the McGill Convocation. Check in was quick and there are many lounge areas. The rooms, bathroom, bedding and towels were clean and the bed was super comfortable with a selection of pillow types (Typical of the Marriott hotels that I have stayed in). The food in the restaurant is very good. Breakfast is better in the restaurant. I ordered breakfast through room-service for breakfast and did not enjoy the Starbuck selection; and the coffee was cold. I do not know if this is typical or because of Covid, the level of services was limited. The view depends on which room you are in. Loved the view of Mount Royal from the room my siste and husband were in. My view was of Rue Presiden Kennedy. Overall a great stay.
