Hotel Reviews Montreal

Just called the shuttle bus http://www.autobus.qc.ca/anglais/profil_an.html that will take you to hotel from airport in Montreal. You don't need to make a reservation when you arrive, it's when you depart. When you arrive the operator said to go to window or kiosk under "spot 5" and get your ticket. Bus departs every half hour. Still need to know exactly what "spot 5" is. lol Must be something outside where the buses and taxi are. wacko.gif

When i was there in 2004--the ticket window was just outside departures--and the bus was right outside from departures. I highly recommend them! Buy ur return ticket at same time and u save a few $$$. Bus takes u from airport to downtown train stn. From there u wait for a smaller shuttle that takes u to downtown hotels! That smaller shuttle was FREE, just had to tip if u so desired! And exact reverse when u leave. Very convenient

I would recommend taking the shuttle from the airport to downtown or wherever your hotel is.

I braved the Montreal transit and took the local bus from dt to the airport to pick up the husband. The trip took almost 2.5 hours. BUT I only paid like 3 dollars or something

for the life of me I couldn't find the shuttle so I ended up taking a taxi.. I think it cost about 30 bucks...

I had a great smoked meat sandwich down there. (Underneath the Queen Elizabeth.) It's an underground city! lol

Ohmygosh. You're going to love it! (Or hate it. lol) SO many fabulous restaurants. Make sure you take a tour of the city!

Yay! Will the hotel be able to tell me where I can get a tour?

Yes, absolutely. Just ask the Concierge or at the Front Desk. But if you turn left coming out of the QE hotel and walk one block up Boulevard René-Lévesque you'll come upon Dorchester Square. There is a really great Tourist Information Centre there, and you can book your tour(s) straight from them.

So in light of Candy's recent experience at Hotel La Tour I was thinking that maybe everyone who has stayed in a hotel near the Montreal Consulate could share their experience so we have some kind of reference?

Hey Tmix...is there a link to that thread anywhere????
