Canada Montreal Embassy Suites Downtown

[Joe25nb]

Hi,

I just got back from a 5 night stay at this hotel. The Embassy Suites Downtown is a fantastic hotel and i highly recommend it to anyone. The rooms were all huge and of course had the separated living room from the bedroom. These rooms all had full fridge and freezers and had very nice marble countertops and full sinks. The best feature of this hotel is the bathtub. Each tub has a jacuzzi built in that really blows out some bubbles. This was heavenly and helped out after a long day at the Palais de Congres (Exhibition hall). So, yes this hotel is practically across the street from the conventino and just 2 blocks from Old Downtown.

The breakfast was the typical cooked to order breakfast and was very good. There was also a managers reception where you could get 2 drinks per night for each night you stayed there. The hotel gave you coupons which you had to turn in to get a drink.

The taxi from the airport cost $38 flat fee to any destination in the downtown area. Although, this hotel is a 20 minute walk from the main downtown (St. Catherine Street) it is a perfect choice if you have business at the convention center. The subway was very efficient and you could get anywhere it went from the hotel for $2.75.

I loved Montreal and this hotel was a perfect fit for me. The only draw back might be the parking rates. I honestly don't know what they were but I know most parking at downtown hotels is $30-40 per night. You honestly don't need a car in this city. The cost of the room was $159.00 per night. A bit steep in some cities but on par or even a bit less than the standard in Montreal.

Hope this helps someone in the future.
