| - I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights in April, and was very pleased with my experience. I work for an Embassy Suites in Southern CA, so it was interesting to compare the two and evaluate the level of service they provide. I don't have much to complain about except for the wireless internet, which was "supposedly" complimentary in the lobby. However, I had the most difficult time connecting, so I opted to pay the $10/day to connect in my room. Other than that, the room was beautiful, modern, and cozy. I stayed in the queen studio (non-suite), and it was the perfect amount of space for just me. The kitchen was huge, with a full sized fridge and plenty of cabinets for food storage. There's even a dishwasher, although I didn't utilize it at all- but nice little feature I guess. The bathroom was a little on the small side, but I really liked that the tub had jets- perfect for a relaxing bath on an unexpected snowy day. Full cooked to order breakfast is always a treat at any Embassy, as well as the happy hour in the evening. I would come down at the same time same place, every evening, and mix and mingle with other guests (mostly business travelers). Staff was very helpful with directions/ attractions, and provided me with excellent transportation throughout my stay. If you get a chance, ask for the driver Belo. He is very kind and knowledgeable about Montreal and won't overcharge you like some other taxi drivers. Location is great too- just around the corner from Notre Dame, the port, and the metro station. Overall, wonderful stay at Embassy Suites in Montreal!
