I must say that my 7-night stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were fantastic overall, but the noise every night was a bit of a nuisance. The contemporary design, comfortable furnishings, and lovely amenities were great, though. The service, on the other hand, was very accommodating and went beyond my expectations, making my stay truly enjoyable. The location was perfect for exploring old Montreal, being close to Notre Dame and plenty of dining options. However, the noise from the downtown area caused a slight disturbance. The dining experience was excellent during my stay, although it was a pity there was no chef in the kitchen at times. Overall, a mixed experience with some exceptional aspects.
