| - We just had a very lovely honeymoon stay in Le Petit Hotel. The location was prime - right in Old Montreal, on a cute street with a bunch of restaurants and boutiques. The hotel was a tiny bit hard to find, but only because we were looking for a sign and there wasn't one - just the name of the hotel on the windows. The staff took our car for valet, and kept it for the whole four-day stay. The lobby, cafe and eating-area are small, but stylish and well-decorated. I could easily see someone choosing to sit with a book or a laptop there (although we didn't because we had lots of sights to see!).
The room was very nice. We were on the fourth floor in a "medium" room, which was fairly spacious for two people with lots of closet room, a desk, a comfy chair, two night stands and a king-sized bed. Our window was facing the wall of the adjacent building, so not much of a view, but it meant that we had a very quiet stay with no noise or light problems. The bathroom was a little cramped, but it was no problem for us and the amenities were nice, including the Aveda bath products and the shower with all sorts of strange options. The mini-bar is limited, but reasonably priced. It was a very clean hotel on the whole, and the maid service tidied up the room daily, replaced the towels and set the iHome music player/alarm clock to a soft trance music. The room, even on the fourth floor, had very good (and free!) wifi service.
The continental breakfast was a nice start to the day, and it's sad that more hotels these days don't offer it. The options were limited, but the quality was very good. Plain and chocolate croissants, fresh breads for toasting, cereal, yogurt, fruit and coffee/tea. The staff would also come around and offer to get you orange juice or a fresh latte. Not a stuff-yourself breakfast, but perfect to keep you going until lunchtime.
The service was, in a word, excellent. The staff was always pleasant and prompt with any requests, and personable while also being professional. Check-in and check-out were both fast, as was the valet. The provided us with maps, directions, called us a taxi, and gave excellent restaurant recommendations and made reservations. They remembered who we were and asked us specific questions about how our day had been and whether we liked the restaurants, etc. It was a nice benefit to being in a smallish hotel.
If (when?) I return to Montreal, I will definitely be choosing Le Petit Hotel.
