you cant find a better place! the location is great. we had 3 rooms. the one side of the hotel looks down at st catherines and the other side looks at rue cresent. from the one side you can see the bell centre. the skyline out your balcony is amazing as you can see in my pic.

the rooms are great! very nice and clean. very large. the bathrooms are large. rooms come with a safe for no charge.a very good size balcony but it has no chairs out there. the room has a stocked bar fridge and a table and chairs. all in all , very nice rooms.

the lobby was very beautiful. once u walk in the front door which has a very polite doorman you really see the beauty of this hotel. the check in was okay, the checkout wasnt so great. they charged us 20 dollars for a cot every night and i didnt realize this till i got home.
you will see a little lounge on the main floor. that however is not thursdays. we thought it was for the first couple days. we heard so much about thursdays and we were dissapointed... till we found it. walk through the loung on the main floor , down a set of stairs then up a set of stairs. wow this place was hopping.they have a huge lounge then a disco down below. this bar is packed with late 20s and 30 s people. you want to pick up this is your place. the lounge was rocking but the dico down stairs was really eye opening. im in my late 20 s, had a great time .. but i have never seen a place so crazy with people in there 30s, 40s, and 50s. good time but 30 plus crowd for sure...

the pool wasnt open when we were there as we were there in oct, but i i read the pool is a happening place. all in all trhis hotel gets a big thumbs up.

as for other quick tips about montreal since we were there too party and party only..... club 1234 is awesome. pay the extra money get a table and a bottle upstairs in the vip lounge.. weather permitting they have a nice outside terrace in the vip area.
club laboom was hmmmmmm alright at best.... was actually a little dissapointed.. very young crowd 18 - 21. get a table in the white room if anything..
as for strip clubs chez perez was the best by far.once again if your rolling, get a table and a bottle of goose.it actually is almost cheaper then going up and getting your drinks.i think we were paying about 230 for a bottle of grey goose with red bull and the vip booth.. not a bad price at all.... and the woman there. aycarumba... very unique crowd there aswell..... you see young, old married, groups of woman... but everyone that goes to montreal checks out a strip club or 20, and this is by far the most popular one.

as for shopping lots of great shopping. ask around for the entrance to the underground. its a whole shopping mall basically under the city.. under st catherines i think.

ps.. if you like alaskan king crab, you have to have it thursdays. 40 bucks, but u will be blue in the face by the time you are done eating it.. sooo much crab

We stayed in this hotel for 4 nights at the beginning of October. It really does look like it does in the photos. The outside looks slightly rundown, it's a tall grey building, but it's completely different once you walk in. The lobby is huge and pretty, with a giant chandelier.
Check in was easy, and the staff were really helpful, giving us maps and leaflets and advice when we told them it was our first time in Montreal.
Our room was quite big and had a huge bathroom. The furniture was all in very good condition, and the bed was very comfortable. The only bad thing was the balcony, it was concrete and shared with the people next door and there were no tables or chairs. The views were good though.
We ate breakfast at the restaurant a few times, it was $15 (I think) but you could have as much as you wanted, there was lots of fruit, croissants, and hot food such as eggs and bacon.
I would definately stay here again if I'm in Montreal, I didn't want to leave!

We have stayed in this hotel a few times over the years, most recently in October 2007. Our most recent stay once again met and exceeded expectations. Check in and parking was smooth and the room with king bed was very spacious. We had breakfast included in our weekend package which was very convenient and economical.

You just can't beat the "character" of this property. You definitely know you are in Montreal and not in some generic chain hotel. We very much enjoy the on site entertainment, there is a piano lounge, disco, and bar (which are definitely fun places to visit) located right in the hotel. Montrealers know how to party and the bar crowd at the de la Montagne runs from middle aged couples to younger and single. Outside you are adjacent to Crescent Street with lots of restaurants and clubs and St. Catherine's Street with tons of shopping. This hotel is in an excellent location.

After a long day of shopping, sightseeing & eating and drinking the rooms are a welcome sight. Large and clean with very comfortable beds we were satisfied with the lodging quality. Luckily we also got a 16th floor room with a beautiful view of the skyline.

Housekeeping comes by in the early evening with a "tomorrow's weather" card and chocolates which we thought was a nice touch.

Overall, for the money we felt this was a good deal and a real find in the city of Montreal. We will continue to visit Montreal for occasional romantic getaway weekends and stay at the Hotel de la Montagne. This city has a lot to offer and the Montagne remains a more than satisfactory part of the experience.

When we arrived at the hotel around 3:00 p.m., there were 2 doormen, but when we went out to dinner at 5:00 p.m. they were gone and we never saw them again during our stay. No complaints though - we weren't carrying enough luggage to make their services necessary. Check-in was a friendly experience, and we found the service to be quite good throughout - except when we returned to the hotel around 10:00 p.m. dressed in our "comfort clothes", sneakers, and carrying a Mac's bag; we got a bit of a look from the front desk as if they thought we were in the wrong place.
My partner and I had a king deluxe room - very large and spacious, and the bathroom was lovely for the most part. One wonders why, however, when the hotel went to the bother of tiling the floor and walls with marble, they would put cheap white tiles in the shower stall and install a pressboard vanity counter. The full-length mirror was very nice, and we certainly appreciated the 2 sinks in the bathroom.
Word to the wise, though: make sure your room is located on at least the 8th floor if they're putting you at the back of the building. We were on the 5th floor and we could hardly hear ourselves talk over the roar of vents, air conditioners, etc. while trying to use the balcony. The back of the building overlooks a rather dingy industrial scene, and I think being on a higher floor would help. We wondered if, because we had booked with Expedia, we had been given a "money savers" room instead of one of their better ones. Or if you don't mind street noise and enjoy people-watching, ask for a room at the front of the building.
The mini bar was well-stocked, the bed was comfortable, and the location was excellent. The air conditioner could have worked better, and chairs on the balcony would have been helpful, but all-in-all it was a good stay and we will likely return.
