Montreal Hotel Recommendations Please

[bccanadagirl 0]

Good evening !

The consulate sent me the email today that said I could schedule the interview and when I logged onto their site I had one ... Tuesday March 26th at 9:00am !!! 33 days away !!! I thought I had read that Montreal takes a lot longer than that to schedule appointments.

I am hoping to get some hotel recommendations if anyone has them. I tried searching on the site for the keywords Montreal and Hotel but am not having any luck. I would like something within walking distance if it's not too expensive. I live in Ontario, about 10 hours away so will drive on Monday and sleep there the night before my appointment.

Thanks to anyone who can give me a decent referral.

Cheers !

We stayed at the gouveneur hotel, about 5 mins from the consulate!

This place is nice, huge rooms and if you go thru the parking lot behind the hotel and down the alleyway that joins the parking lot it comes right out at the entrance of the consulate.

If you check out Saylin's thread below, it will show you pictures of the outside of the consulate and where to line up. Get there early even though your appointment is at 9 am and make sure that you have your Loomis confirmation letter as well as your appointment letter.

Do not bring any electronic devices such as cell phones. Leave those in the hotel. With regards to bringing in your paperwork, get a clear plastic binder and just bring that.

I stayed at the Quality Hotel Downtown on Ave Parc. Nice rooms, lots of food around, and a Tim Hortons in the lobby which was a plus. 10 min walk to the consulate, $18/day indoor heated parking.

We stayed at Le Square Phillips Hotel in downtown Montreal. Very close, within walking distance.

I wrote a blog post about the hotel with a little video to remember our trip to Montreal.

It's a little more expensive, but very nice and convenient.
Good luck everyone!
