Montreal Marriott Chateau Champlain

Beautiful hotel, with very modern advanced rooms. Lots of tech included! The restaurant in the lobby was very enjoyable and has great cocktails. Friendly service from the front desk staff. We had a stunning view from our room. Hotel is only a 5 minute easy walk to Via train station. Highly recommend.

Great location within 1 block of Centre Bell. Dozens of eateries within a 10-15 minute walk. Great connection directly to the Montreal Underground with its myriad of shops and food places. Self-parking in hotel building with immediate access to hotel. Very pleasant staff. Our room faced the park--high floor; spotless, appeared quite new; shower is like standing under a waterfall. Very comfortable bed and pillows. The HVAC was perhaps a tad too loud, unfortunately. The elevators are controlled by some state of the art controls--there was essentially no waiting or unnecessary stopping at floors--they automatically adjust for loads--really awesome, actually. Overall a very pleasant experience.

The best hotel of my whole life with the most courteous staff of my life exceeding Asian/ Latin hospitality known all over the world.|Best part of my trip to Montral - This hotel as the weather was cold. BEST part of this hotel - The Staff : - Julianne checked me in . She was vert friendly. Assigned a good room with a view. Nathaniel- JUST AWSOME-- Always smiling and super courteous. Went way out of his way to help. Could not give me exact change for $50 and $10 bill for bus ticket which costs $11. He added a $1 from HIS POCKET. NEVER HAD SUCH HOSPITALITY from a receptionist before. He gave me a very nice going away gift. He touched my heart. Peter and Aaron were super humble and friendly. Mark in the restaurant gave me good service. Every one including Michelle was very nice. Breakfast buffet was as good as it gets. No negative. One of the best hotels of my life. Great memories. Thank you all. With luv, blessings, wishes for good health and peace = The Ultimate Wealth ||Great surprise- I spent most of my life in the USA. I did not know Canadians were very very kind people. Every single person on the streets in Montreal was SUPER HELPFUL and HUMBLE. Sincere thanks from my heart to the people of Montreal. I was wearing a Colombian hat and poncho. Absolutely zero discrimination. ||There is a special elevator inside the hotel that connects you to Metro and therefore almost all Montreal including the Underground City. ||freee burd from Colombia

We absolutely loved our stay at the Montreal Marriott Chateau Champlain. The hotel is in a great location convenient to a lot of the downtown/old Montreal area (especially if you're ok with a little bit of walking). Check in was speedy and the staff was very helpful with bringing bags up to the room. The valet team was great and quick on both ends of the trip. You can tell the rooms have been re-done relatively recently. Bed was extremely comfortable. As someone who struggles with hotel pillows, the two here were perfect. Now let's talk about the shower. This hotel had the best water pressure I've ever experienced and multiple different options for ways to have the water come out of the shower head. A+ here. TV in the room was huge and had a nice mix of US and Canadian channels. Didn't use the gym, but went down and looked at it and looked to be brand new.

A really good hotel in an excellent location, direct access to the Metro is amazing. The staff were courteous and helpful. The lobby is not as grand as some hotels but it's just a lobby. I keep a mental note of the quality of the gym in pretty much all hotels I stay in, this is far and away the best I've seen across more than a hundred hotels I've stayed in. The assortment of equipment/weights and the space rival many commercial gyms.

This Marriott Chateau Champlain is a remarkable landmark hotel for design, architecture and elegance. This hotel is a top managed Marriott that the whole Operations team should be proud of. One of the best I have stayed at and will continually return to. The hotel is in a convenient location downtown Montreal (right next to many great places). ||The hotel has been completely renovated with rooms that are super modern, creatively decorated, cozy, and have great views. The bathroom was super modern with the warm toilet seats, bidet, robotic shower, etc.... I was very high up and the view was spectacular. ||I didn't have change to try the lobby restaurant. Note, for Bonvoy elite members, the M-Club Lounge is really nice with great food and service. The hosts was great.||But, the best part of all was Bianca, Edouardo and Vivian at the front desk. They welcomed us immediately with a sincere warm welcome making us feel at home and they demonstrated amazing attention to detail helping us getting the best room available - truly thankful. Vivian continued was always helpful during the stay. ||The three of them exemplified true professionalism in attitude and job execution. Wow! Very impressed. What a team! Thanks again for a great stay!! Keep up the great work.

DO NOT allow them to keep you in a room with a conjoining door. When I tell you, you hear everything next door, you hear EVERYTHING. When bringing up the issue to the front desk no one really did anything or even suggested to move us to a different room. So on our vacation we were constantly waking up the same time as the kids screaming next door. However besides the rooms, the hotel was very clean and they changed our towels and sheets every day which was nice. The lobby was very pretty. Along with a great and convenient location.

One of the best hotels I've stayed at. Their attention to detail was amazing. The room staff noticed I used all the Nespresso pods so gave me double. What I really miss is the gym. I've stayed at hotels around the world but this is the best gym I've ever been to. The fact they have dispensers for room temperature, cold and sparkling water is incredible. Can't wait to come back.

Quiet, great views, upscale public spaces, worth it club lounge ..... We plan on staying here again.

Newly renovated Montréal Marriott Château Champlain Visiting Montreal, Canada in December is definitely a different sight of scene. It's much less crowded. The snow mixed-in muddy roads didn't stop us from walking all over places. Enjoyed our stay at Montréal Marriott Château Champlain with complimentary upgrade. Loved the convenience of M club and Lloyd restaurant. Gorgeous newly renovated rooms come with beautiful views and top of the line amenities. Check our video for more details. https://youtu.be/g6xBSzjyPqM

Overview: Recently remodeled Marriott. Stayed here a few years ago and refresh is thorough. Nice rooms, decent service, one of the worst M Lounges around on the weekends. Check in: efficient check in on a recent Friday afternoon; asked for a room upgrade based on my status and Nathaniel responded that my room was already upgraded to the 32nd floor. Nathaniel was very pleasant. Room (3216): King bed, desk, settee near window, Samsung TV, mini-refrigerator, Nespresso coffee maker, all the normal items. Bed: firm mattress. Average linens. Frustrating under bed lighting system and randomly came on in the middle of the night. Cleanliness of room: above average. Good housekeeping. Noise/sleep quality: Little noise between rooms during our stay, some door slamming from hallway noticed. Some street noise came into the room even though we were not he 32nd floor. Bathroom: shower only, good pressure. Service: in general employees were adequate. Housekeeper on our floor was very sweet. Restaurant: On-site restaurant called "Lloyd"- see our separate review of Lloyd (cold eggs Benedict, staff full of excuses and no service) Parking: $27/day in the garage attached to the hotel. No in/out at the garage. Valet service available but valet costs $42/day. Gym: Nice gym Club: If you have status, there's an M Lounge. The M Lounge is horrible on the weekends. On both Saturday and Sunday of our stay the M Lounge was not serviced and food was empty, coffee makers not working, etc. I complained about the lack of food on Saturday with front desk staff. Complaint was ignored and Sunday was even worse. The M Lounge was so bad Sunday, we ate at the restaurant. Also, M Lounge offered yogurt that expired the day of visit. On the Monday of our stay, the M Lounge was fully stocked and well run. Management response re M Lounge: I complained about having to buy breakfast at Lloyd, and hotel management refunded our charge at the restaurant. Management's response neutralized the overall poor experience. Internet: Upgraded to high speed access. Nperf test showed 44 Mb down/40 Mb up. Good speed for remote work. Misc: (1) This is a downtown hotel and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. (2) About 10 minute walk to the old city or Chinatown. (3) If you have status and get a $10 US credit for food or drink, this hotel provides its own unique exchange rate from US to Canadian dollars. During our visit the real exchange rate was about $1 US to $1.31 Canadian. But our $10 US credit voucher only gave us $12 at Lloyd.

Such a beautiful hotel within walking distance of shops, restaurants. Serene rooms with very comfortable beds, amazing rain showerhead, nespresso machine in your room and an extremely professional and friendly staff. The Marriott Club had excellent selection for breakfast and I thoroughly joined my stayz

Luxurious accommodation! The staff sincerely welcomed us & provided exceptional recommendations for our stay. We will return!

This was my second time staying here and I absolutely love it. I got a room with a view of the city up on the 18th floor. It was beautiful. The room was clean and had all the amenities you need. I particularly liked the shower and all the different water outlets and the pressure. The beds were very comfortable. The breakfast buffet is really nice and there are lots of great options! You can even request them to make you an omelet. The gym is clean and has several options of machines to use. It will s in a great location to walk to several places! We walked to Old Town Montreal, Mont Royal and everything in between! There's so much to do within a walking distance (3 miles radius). The city felt safe to walk during the day and late at night. The only con of my visit was the alarm that went off at 7am. It was my one day to sleep in after a long trip and the alarm was verrry loud and scared the hell out of me! It was an alarm notifying guests that the elevator was down.

Very good hotel. It's a bit overpriced. That's why can't give 5/5. 16$ dollar bloody Cesar is only the tip of the iceberg. It's a prime location, gorgeous view. I had a good night sleep and the room are just beautiful. If you don't mind the price. I would absolutely recommend it.

Gorgeous hotel in a great location in downtown Montreal. Metro access is avail from lobby elevator, and walking distance to Gare Central, Underground City, Vieux Montreal (Notre Dame) and even the Port waterfront (Grand Quai). Excellent service by eager and friendly staff. Largest Gym (in North America for a hotel, according to the claim) with dry sauna, and Terrace overlooking cityscape. We would definitely stay here again. Five Stars!

Rooms are spacious and the upgraded bathrooms are a treat. Views are fantastic. Walking distance to Notre Dame, train station, and beautiful park.

It was late and I was tired. It was great that the hotel is located directly outside of the subway station it's easy Access. The room is very comfortable. Nice hotel with nice windows! Amazing view of the city! Luxury at his best!!

Excellent hotel. Very new and clean. Don't let the exterior fool you. Nice elevators. Location is good and close to metro. The gym is decent also.

Lovely hotel and in a convenient location close to the Centre Bell. The metro is literally below the hotel, as is the famous underground walkways. Less than 2 blocks away is the famous Dunn's restaurant, and I really loved the food there. We had the breakfast buffet as part of our package, cold food only. I thought it would be lousy but found out it was not just Danish, but breads, meats, cheese, and even the oatmeal. Plenty of juice to choose from, and even their famous Montreal bagel. The only downside is the place is a bit old and dated. If you're looking for a fresh looking hotel, this isn't it, but the fact its close to the metro, the shops, restaurants and the Centre Bell? I'll overlook it.

Not the best experience here. The staff is friendly but the rooms aren't that comfortable or clean.

I've been to this hotel during its greater days, 12 years ago. The truth is, it just feels tired, in a dire need of a face lift - not even renovations as per se, but a new look. The location is alright, and so was the price. Won't repeat if I didn't have to, because Montreal has much more to offer.

We stayed here on a recommendation from a friend. First off, the location is perfect! Right in the heart of downtown Montreal you can easily walk to a ton of amazing restaurants, pubs, and attractions. It should also be noted that there is a Metro station entrance in the hotel lobby behind the concierge desk, so convenient! The Via Rail station is only 2 blocks away, which is a huge bonus as we're travelling by train to Quebec City tomorrow. We got a room with a city view, wow so beautiful! We were delighted to be able hear the church bells from St George's church as well. The hotel is older but very charming. The important factors for us are a comfy bed and a hot shower with decent water pressure, they get high marks for both. I like the high quality toiletries they offer as well. We went down and had a peek at the pool and gym and we were quite impressed with the facilities. We'll try it out later today. I liked the fact that there's a Starbucks in the lobby along with a gift shop few high end stores. It's a bit on the pricey side, but definitely worth it.

Check in was pretty painless, but the room they assigned me to hadn't yet gotten housekeeping. Gross. Glad I didn't walk in on the people before me because based on the disheveled bedsheets, I likely would have caught them in the act. The concierge lounge on the 35th floor has great views of downtown, especially Mary, Queen of the World Cathedral. Continental breakfast for Elite members from 6:00-10:30, Monday-Friday. Hors d'oeuvres from 5:30-7:30, Sunday-Thursday. Dessert 7:30-10:00. Pretty tough to beat the location. About a 15 minute walk to Old Montreal. $24 daily parking in the garage below on the hotel.

Husband and I were booked here for a conference as an overflow group from the Sheraton two blocks away. We had never been to Canada, let alone Quebec and loved this hotel location. The metro stop connected to the hotel is wonderful. I can see that being a major plus when it is winter. The hotel is very close to the bus stop that takes you to/ from the airport. All the staff were wonderful. And we had to store 3 suitcases and two "personal items" before our flight and after check out and it was only $4 Canadian which was so reasonable. Wifi was a bit spotty for video chatting with our babies back home but also was included so it was fine. I would stay every time I go to Montreal which may be often.

I went to the little pub in the Marriott hotel. Also, it's very sad to see such a beautiful and historic hotel in such bad shape ! The crystals were crooked on the chandeliers and outdated carpets. I know it gives it the vintage feel but they could've done more to upkeep the place. I went to a networking event. The hotel chartered as well it was nice I got free tea and coffee. As well as water which was very nice of the hotel. Later we went into the pub for drinks and food. It was charming ! However you need a room key to enter into a bathroom outside the pub which seemed lousy. But they did carry local Quebec gin which I could appreciate. And the servers were great but we were the only ones in there as well. I asked to see the food menu and explained I'm a vegan which the wait staff didn't seem to understand at all. They had thought I meant I ate fish or cheese. Lol. They brought me out my app with bacon on it ! What a fail I had to send it back and it came. It was a beet salad and radishes. But honestly I wished that I had the fries. The place isn't a great Vegan option but it's a charming pub and decor. It's worth checking out !

I'm a die-hard Marriott hotel frequent guest. I love that I can use the points I earned at hotels in Asheville and Columbia and Chicago for a "free" hotel for a weekend in Montreal. That's just awesome. This was a major redemption. 50,000 points bought me a concierge-level room on the 35th floor. A two-room suite with a great view of the river, which was great because that's where the fireworks were. Yep, I was here for Canada Day. Comfortable bed and a bathroom with all the usual features of Marriott properties. Plus a bidet. Bellman in the lobby is happy to hold your bags if you check out and still have time before leaving Montreal. There is also an elevator to the Bonaventure Métro station (though it was out of service during my stay). As with all full-service Marriotts, this one has a concierge lounge and free wifi for Gold and Platinum level Marriott Rewards members.

GREAT LOCATION Near the city center and the old city. The hotel is celebrating it's 50th anniversary. The staff and especially the concierge staff are great. The rooms are nice but the bathroom is extremely small. Try to stay on a higher floor overlooking Mont Royal and the city.

This hotel is in downtown which makes it convenient to go anywhere. There is a train station around the corner, and for about $10 / day unlimited ticket, you can explore pretty much all of Montreal. The hotel has a nice indoor pool and an awesome gym where you can burn calories before and after you eat at surrounding cafes and restaurants. Will stay again in this hotel when we comeback for summer.

Old classic hotel. The pictures are exactly what you should expect. The hotel connects to train, metro, and in a great location. The doorman year was the best!! he gave suggestions for us for dinner and it was perfect. He was patient and has worked here for 37 years. He is full of Montreal knowledge!! Starbucks in hotel!!! No microwaves in any rooms. The scent of pot was prominent on our floor but not he end of the world to not stay here. The conssierre is right on too. Staff is nice hard to get to the garage so be prepared to take two different elevators. We loved the arch windows and fact that the hotel had history. I would stay here again.

We are long time Marriott Elites so when we went to Montreal for a long weekend, we searched for Marriott in downtown that were family friendly. This was the winner since they also have a good pool. Checking in was smooth and easy and the staff was extremely pleasant and accommodating. The location was perfect... steps away from the Bell Centre, St. Catherine's, and pretty much everything you'd want is right there. Daily parking was $25 per day. The pool and fitness centerwas of reasonable size. The rooms very comfortable and roomy. Our room overlooked the city, which was beautiful. There is a Starbucks, a bar, a grab and go breakfast place, and a convention center located in the facility. A metro center is also right in the hotel which made it easy to get anywhere. We will be back!

I'm giving this "home away from home" 5 Stars. The location is amazing, and the people are fantastic. The hotel reminds me a bit of a Grande Dame - she is a classy lady of a certain age. The doorman remembered me after not too long, and the bar staff are amazing - so friendly. More vegetarian options on the menu would be welcome, I confess. Other than that, it's all been said - if you like the ambiance of a classic, older hotel, this ones for you. If you like attentive and not intrusive staff, and a great location, this is your choice. If you have serious issues with a few chandelier crystals being out of place, there are other hotels. I don't think they will have a doorman who lets you borrow an umbrella to walk to work when it's raining, though.

Hotel is in a great location and central. Nice view from our window facing over the park. The reception area is nice and the staff are friendly. But the hotel is tired and in desperate need of a re-fit. The paint above the shower is peeling, the aircon makes a rattle noise And the curtains and carpet need replacing.

Nice central/downtown location. Comfortable and reasonably spacious rooms that have been updated fairly recently. I had a fridge in my room too. Decent exec lounge and passable breakfast. Excellent views from the upper floors of the river and of downtown (opposite sides of the building).

This is by far one of my favorite hotels to stay in Montreal whenever I visit - everything from the lobby to the rooms are finely decorated and the staff on hand are ready and willing to serve. I especially like the fact the hotel is on the taller scale so you can request a room with a gorgeous city view and have fun looking down through the bubbled room windows. Or get sick if you have a fear of heights. Cut to my mother clinging to the bathroom walls for dear life. The location is great - right near public transportation, restaurants, and St. Catherine Street - be careful walking down this at night with your little brother as he may start staring at topless women on billboards...awk.

Spent 4 nights here this past week and was very pleased with the place. In short: - nice clean rooms - some potentially wonderful views (I was upgraded to a suite on the 35th floor facing south) - heating was great, as in, lots of it and not loud (you have no idea how important this can be) - gym was pretty solid with multiple cardio options, free weights and several other machines - bar downstairs offered friendly service, decent food, and quite a few local beer offerings - convenient access to the metro directly underneath the hotel Only minor gripe was the limited offerings of the executive lounge. The place is very small, bfast and evening hors d'oeuvres left quite a bit to be desired. Alcohol is not complimentary unlike true international Marriott hotels. Only real plus is the water and soft drink options in the cooler.

I'm a Marriott Rewards Elite Member, so I opted for this hotel on a recent trip to Montreal. The location of the hotel is great. It's a short walk to downtown shopping, the Jazz Fest, and Old Montreal. I even walked back from Mont Royal Parc after my visit there. If you're going to anything at Bell Centre, it's SUPER close. There's a metro station nearby, as well. This hotel has been around a while. I'd love to see some updates to the rooms. It looks like they took out all the minibar fridges, and just left the shelving they were in there. Replace them with a fridge, like most hotels have these days. Or better yet, redo the room and reconfigure the space to be more useful and modern. The bathrooms were also tiny, but functional. It wasn't dirty or anything- just older, and in need of an update. The staff here are wonderful. Everyone was very helpful. Check in was easy and the staff at the desk were friendly and informative. There is a fitness room in the hotel, but this too need an update. I am pretty sure those weights are older than me. The lobby has a Starbucks and a gift shop with plenty of necessities. It's a real Starbucks, and you can use your app here (although they have to type the number in manually). The Concierge Lounge had adequate space, and great views. I'd stay here again.

They gave me a room with a great view of the river. The room was clean, albeit a little old room. Service was above average.

Great hotel with an old fashion decor that will make you feel like you went back in time. The rooms are spacious and the decor is a hybrid between modern and old fashion. Not to mention, the great location - short walk to downtown shopping and has its own entrance to the train station. Old Montreal wasn't too far either. The Concierge Lounge has an amazing view of the Square Dorchester and the Queen Mary of the World Cathedral. I just wish that the lounge is open on weekends.

We are having a lovely stay at this Marriott. Came with the family for a conference. The crib requested for the room was not ready at our arrival but was sent up within a few min, as well as the rollaway bed (at no additional cost). There is a mini fridge in the room and amazing views of the city (22 floor). There is a supermarket 2 blocks away (Provigo). Subway station right below the hotel (you take the elevator marked "metro" one floor down). There is a ramp to get to the lobby of the hotel (for stroller). No ramp when taking the elevator to the subway (only stairs after getting off the elevator). Walking distance to downtown, Mont Royal, Old Montreal. We have used the heated and indoor pool almost daily. It opens at 6:30am and closes at 10pm. Every time we ask for something (more coffee or the crib for example) front desk person calls within a few minutes to make sure we received it.

This is more like a 3-3.5* hotel stay, but excellent service from hotel staff bump it up to 4... everyone from the two sweet ladies in housekeeping, to the concierge for directions and sightseeing recommendations, parking valet and a particular shout out to Louis Philippe at the Elite check-in desk. Originally we parked the car ourselves in the underground garage (hotel parking is on level 5). Be very careful... narrow lanes and low spaces. Nothing over 6 feet tall can go in there. We have a Ford Flex which is quite low, but the antenna on the roof kept bouncing off the pipes that run along the ceiling. Sounded like those straws kids used to put on their bike tire spokes. ;) And with the "hearse's" long wheel base, we kept nudging curbs turning on to the ramps. The hotel opened in 1967 (just in time for Expo '67) and shares the parking garage with offices and shopping at Place du Canada. How on earth the monstrosity cars of that era managed to manoeuvre in and out of that garage eludes me. We ended up switching to valet parking the next day, otherwise you pay $20/day and the clock starts over every time you go in or out. In/out privileges are only available with the valet. I think it was $34 (plus tips) to let them worry about not taking out pillars or blowing a tire on those curbs. Elevator up to the rear entrance is decidedly antique. As was a lot of the décor going along the hallway. My husband was not impressed to see they used the wrong colour temperature LEDs in the chandeliers, far too white. What can I say, it's what he does. When you actually get into the Grand Hall, that's obviously been updated, but maintaining a rich and elegant ambiance. Love the large tapestry of Samuel de Champlain's (for whom the hotel was named) ship of exploration hanging at the back of the beautiful staircase to the lower lobby. When we checked in at the Elite desk, we found we had been upgraded to a mini-suite. Merci beaucoup! It was a nice room, for 1980s. They've been renovating the guest rooms, but apparently haven't made it to the 34th floor yet. Furniture is worn, upholstery on the sitting room chairs is ripped, plaster on the popcorn ceiling behind the curtain rails has fallen off from water damage. I was very sad to see the condition of the leather top on the desk. Bed was comfortable, so that at least wasn't worn out. You forget all that mundane stuff when your eyes behold the panoramic view from those eyelash windows (or cheese graters as some people have described them). Simply stunning! Not to mention the location with so many wonderful options for food, history, shopping (both down the street and underground access from the hotel lobby, along with the metro subway) and entertainment within walking distance. We were attending the Adele concert just a block away at CentreBell, home of the Montréal Canadiens. And with glorious, early fall weather, it was an incredibly perfect time to do lots of walking.

We were in room 3116 from 8/1-8/7. The housekeeping is very rude. Every morning at 8:00 am they get to work. They clean the rooms without a door wedge. This means they will go in and out of the door slamming it a hundred times hitting the dead bolt. The door will squeak and slam over and over again. We have our privacy card up each day so we can sleep in. The hotel staff could have some courtesy and be respectful of those around them. I've never heard of a hotel that doesn't wedge the door open while cleaning the rooms. Either they're trying to wake up the patrons on purpose or straight rude. After complaining to the hotel, nothing was done to remedy the situation.

Beautiful Hotel!! They have a nice boutique in the lobby if you want to buy a couple of precious items, ie. watch, pens, bracelets. The breakfast buffet was very appealing and the hot order breakfast very good. A bit pricey but what else would you expect for a lovely hotel in the middle of downtown. I especially had a great time in the bar. What a nice Scotch list, I had someone footing the bill so I made sure I tasted a few different kinds. I ordered the potstickers and poutine, WOWzers so good. The staff was very friendly and as I Native English speaker, everyone I came in contact to was bilingual and had no problems answering questions and even were more then happy to help with my French when ever I braved an attempt. If and when I go back to La Belle Province I would most likely go back to this place.

Great hotel located in downtown. The staff was fantastic and we got actually upgraded because of my status to one of the newer rooms. The concierge room is wonderful with great coffee and a great start to breakfast. Overall our experience was very good.

This property lives up to the Marriott standards. Extremely helpful and efficient front desk. Good housekeeping. Excellent conference facilities and catering. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

We loved everything about this hotel except the air conditioning. It seemed the room would cool off for a while then the thermostat would be automatically reset to a higher temperature. The service, staff, lobby pub were all wonderful. If they could just improve the air conditioning in the blistering hot summer they would get 5 stars.

Loved the Location!! Great central location, we chose it b/c of how close it was to a metro! Once we arrived, we realized they had a Metro entrance directly connected to the Hotel, which was awesome since it was cold af!! We were on the 26th floor and the view was amazing! Ordered room service one of the nights and the food was pretty good, I got the Lamb shank, it was delicious! The staff was very friendly and we would definitely stay here again.

A classic older Marriott property. Excellent service and location in downtown Montreal. Beautiful views from my room. The staff is very pleasant and helpful. I especially liked the older doorman, he was a funny and friendly guy. Lots of cabs out front. Restaurant was fine for breakfast but over priced. $29 and no omelet station or custom dishes would have been perfect at $19. Liked the full Starbucks in the lobby. I'd stay here again.

I really like my room - it's facing the river. The bed is super comfortable and for the most part, the staff is friendly. The elevator is super fast so it helped when I running to the conference room in the morning =P.

Excellent stay here with the family. We are gold category Marriott rewards folks and we're delighted with an upgrade. The level of service here is remarkably high. They take amazing care of their guests. Amenities were excellent. And the fact that it was connected to the metro and the underground city was a deal maker for us given that we are staying here over the holidays (during a snow storm!)

Anytime that your favorite part of a hotel stay was the water pressure in the shower, you know that the hotel didn't provide anything worth writing home about. Let's break down the Marriott Chateau Champlain experience, and the reason for a 2 star rating: Pros: - Water pressure in the shower - Beautiful views of Montreal (if given a high floor room) Cons: - Perhaps this is just the French-Canadian stereotype playing itself out, but the front desk staff were not helpful at all. Ever get that feeling the person "helping" you out would rather be doing anything but helping you out? That's how I felt there. - The rooms with the double beds were tiny. As in this is what I would expect in Manhattan tiny. But it isn't Manhattan. And for the price you pay, I expect to have enough room to not have to squeeze in like a sardine. - No toilet paper rack. Seriously, WTF? What Marriott property stacks a roll of toilet paper on your toilet, and makes you unroll when you shit? Weird. - Location is close to St. Catherine's, but far from Old Montreal, St. Denis etc. It's in an isolated part of town. Summary: Don't expect a high end hotel experience, despite what you are paying for your hotel room.

A very nicely appointed Marriott high rise hotel in a perfect location. Most everything was within walking distance: art galleries, restaurants, shops, historic churches and the Port of Montreal. Excellent bar with good menu. Rooms were clean and spacious. View was great. Concierge and front desk staff were extremely helpful. The Metro stops underground right below the hotel. Wifi was confusing, however. Rumor has it that, every now and then, William Shatner stops by the bar. Oh, to hang with Denny Crane!

Nice room with oval window if you get a city view room. Bed was comfortable and rooms are quite (I was next to the elevator). Front desk and all service were friendly, attentive. About 5 min walk to wherever restaurants/shops are (big blocks here in downtown)... not even a single restaurant within one block. So it's ok location but not the best. Coffee machine in the room has no sugar/milk. Just coffee/tea. Two worst part of stay: 1. Worst wifi connection ever. I chose upgraded faster internet connection but still couldn't get connected to open a website/checking email unless I wait for a few min to get connection each time. 2. Exec. lounge is similar or worse than hampton Inn level for breakfast/evening snack. All alcoholic drinks are not free. Each night, there is one meat-item (e.g. pork sandwich or chicken satay and salad/cheese). Breakfast has fruit, yogurt, bread and hard-boiled egg, cheese. In addition, if you have a guest, there is a charge of 20 CAD!!! This eventually made me change the hotel after 2 night stay.

it may look like a cheese grater, but this is really a great hotel in Montreal. I'm so glad we ended up here thanks to an awesome price on Expedia (unlisted room rates FTMFW)! location-wise, it's excellent. access to the Metro system (orange line) and the Underground City right in the hotel basement. Gare Centrale (Central Station) is a 5 minute walk away, helpful if you come in by train. the neighborhood isn't the most exciting, but it's very safe (all hotels and office buildings). Saint Catherine Street is a 5 minute walk way too, with a metric buttload (you ARE in Canada, remember) of options for eating, drinking, and shopping. the staff were helpful and friendly. we got in town late so the only room left had 2 beds in it, but they gave us the option of relocating in the morning. didn't take them up on that, since sightseeing and getting food are higher priorities, but we appreciated the offer. rooms are modest and quite clean, with fairly decent views out to the city. free wifi in all rooms, nice TVs, and comfortable beds. there's a good pool, a small hot tub, a nice little fitness room to go BEAST MODE in, and they have a masseuse. how positively decadent! overall, a great hotel to stay in if you can get a good deal on rates. I would certainly stay here again. odd coincidence that on my previous trips here I always stayed at the Hilton right next door.

I stayed at the Marriott Chateau Champlain last weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better hotel. It was smack dab in the center of Montreal, within walking distance of rue Sainte-Catherine and all the shops, restaurants, and bars. We were able to walk around Montreal to the piers, Chinatown, old Montreal, etc. pretty easily from here. Not a SHORT walk to the piers (maybe 30 minutes?), but doable. Montreal is a great walking city, with lots of beautiful architecture and things to see and do, so the hotel was in an excellent location. Concierge was great and accomodating, and the view from our room was beautiful. Would absolutely stay here again.

Delightful old-school downtown hotel - revisited Over the past few weeks I had the opportunity to stay here again - as well as at another downtown Montreal hotel - and am happy to say that the Chateau remains my favorite hotel in Montreal. I'll admit my opinion may be biased by my fondness of mid-60s architecture but that is only part of the story. The Chateau is a traditional full service hotel with a great location, spacious rooms, huge windows with fabulous views, and excellent service - what's not to like? The only real update to my previous review is that since my last visit I've learned of Montreal's extensive 'underground city' and found it a very convenient way to get to and from the Chateau on rainy days.

I booked a hotel room for a last minute trip to Montreal and realized 5 minutes later that my friend did not have his passport with him so we could not go. We immediately tried to get a refund and they refused. I lost $600.
