| - This place is weird.
It's not that i didn't enjoy my stay there just fine. It's just that it's.... well... weird.
The photos on the website showed cute red and white rooms with pictures of Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. The price great at about $80 a nite. Well... i'll post my own pics.
It's located on Rue St-Denis at the corner of Blvd. Rene-Levesque E. across from Hopital St-Luc. First warning, the hospital is (forever) under construction and traffic and parking can be tricky. We called the hotel to ask where we could park and they had two short term spots in front of the hotel while you were checking in, then they instructed us on a couple lots (too expensive!) so we opted for the street parking.
FYI : street parking in Montreal is not the easiest! I totally took the Green P lots in Toronto for granted, until I came to Montreal. Parking in Montreal is a total crapshoot. We lucked out and found something up the street.
We got the key to our room 301. There is free wifi too, and the front desk lady gave us the code to log in.
Up the stairs (no elevator here!) to the third floor, everything was decorated really eclectically. I liked it :) We opened the door to our room... um.... this is....interesting. It was clean and had all the amenities. But it was very dark. Our room had random wood pieces everywhere, blue and mustard walls, and oddly placed lighting. The bed and 'couch' where covered with zebra print blankets. There was a little kitchen area too, but we never found a light switch that worked in there. Ropes hanging from the ceiling to the floor added to the strangeness. The bathroom was extra odd. A step up after the doorway, but the tub was sunken, so you had to actually step down IN to the shower. The edge of the tub was flush with the floor, it kind of felt like a was standing in a gutter when i had my shower. Plus it was really dark in there.
Our room had a back deck area that was HUUUGE! But totally empty, so i'm not sure what you would do out there. It was at the back of the hotel in a sketch alley. We didn't really want the creepy eyes looking at us from their windows, so we stayed inside.
They told us that a small breakfast was included so we went down to the lobby in the morning. It was cute. Coffee, tea, juice, two pices of bread and a croissant. It was more like a carb snack to hold us over until we went for real breakfast somewhere else.
Hotel Celebrities is fine for it's price point. It's definitely eclectic!
