This was our second time staying here and as great as it was the first time, this stay proved even more enjoyable. It still boasts all of the things we loved the first time (the cleanliness; the ambience; the convenient location; friendly staff; etc . . .) but this time it seems that we got even more bang for our buck. Despite arriving at 11:00am, we were still able to check in right away and the process could not have been easier. We were fully checked in and settled into our rooms by 11:15! This is huge for those of us who are looking for a weekend getaway without kids and really want to maximize our time in the city. Unlike last time, the hot tub temperature was perfect and one of the outdoor terraces was open for us to enjoy. While there are any number of great hotels in Montreal, the combination of the price, the location and the atmosphere at the Courtyard Marriott certainly makes this our preferred downtown hotel destination.
