Hotel Faubourg Montreal Downtown

The rooms were spacious. The staff took some precautions with the COVID crisis by preparing breakfasts to go and closing up the eating area and gym. The entry by access card also helped create a sense of security. The lady day staff was also kind and courteous.

The bathroom was dirty, and the wood panel by the sink had a piece missing. The bathtub had a weird upward sloping angle in one side. I almost fell a couple times! The carpets in the hallway were obviously not vacuumed, especially in the corners. The detergent receptacle in the washing machine was filthy. Even though the building seems to be undergoing renovations, the staff should still ensure that the rooms themselves and the hallways are clean. This is even more important given the current coronavirus situation.

I was there on a weekend for a short visit; it has a nice location, free parking available on street and easily accessible to old Montreal attractions. Very spacious for the location.

Although we had a one bedroom suite, it was not as comfortable as we expected. When we wanted to take a shower the water got cold pretty fast and we couldn’t make it for 3 of us in a row. We had to wait till the hot water tank got warm enough for the next person. It’s very unfortunate for a hotel not having a central hot water system. The room temperature was not comfortable either, was a cold day and cold rooms! It took a full day to reach a nice comfy temperature. There was no utensils or cutlery in suite, it’s been said available upon request but we got UNWASHED knives and forks and disposable plates. Blankets were pretty old and sofa bed was not really comfortable. A few things were not in their best functional state. Including two of the table lamps, heating system and bath tub faucet. I couldn’t find a clear breakfast time written anywhere. And it’s over at 9:30, it’s good to be extended to make more people happy. All furniture are pretty old and worn out. Staff are expected to be more friendly and responsible. Hotel charges you $27 a night for parking. Generally it’s ok for one night but if you plan to stay longer you may want to rethink about it.

I like that parking was easily accessible.

The bathtub was dirty and we had to wait for the hot water to come on.
