It will be perfect for your family at Le Guilleret, many guests absolutely loved it. The restored beauty of the place, its central location, and our warm and welcoming hosts had us hooked from the beginning. Le Guilleret is a montreal hotel that will accommodate your interests perfectly (from grandparents to recent McGill grad), providing clean comfortable rooms with thoughtful details and plenty of quiet or social space to relax and have a bottle of wine. Help-yourself coffee in the mornings, guitar and dancing with the owners' young daughter, and lovely chats with Naima and Marc made the whole experience feel like coming home ... only with much more care. Your stay will be fabulous - representative of the warmth and vitality so characteristic of Montreal. A lot of guests recommend Le Guilleret to anyone. If you choose Le Guilleret as your hotel you will not regret it!! The Hotel is quite beautiful, the rooms are wonderful, very cosy and snug. The personnel is very nice and helpful! Breakfast was served as of 7am (great for jetlagged people like us) and is incredible, croissants, bagels, pains au chocolat... It is huge! Another great point was the fact that the hotel was rather empty before and for Christmas which means calm but also very low prices : we paid 68 CAD$ for 2 per night! Less than half of the normal price! You will definitively stay at the Guilleret if we come back to Montreal! And the location is just perfect: Old Montreal. Overall, your stay at this auberge will interesting, and you will want to stay there again.For a large city, downtown lodging, the price was very reasonable ($95 Canadian per night)...and it included breakfast. The breads are fresh, varied and plentiful. Eggs, cereal, coffee, juice, jams, maple syrup, etc were all available. The kitchen is very well-equipped and outfitted like a restaurant kitchen. It is such a thrill to be in an old stone building built in 1760. You could feel the history in it. Given the age of the building, the rustic, yet contemporary upgrades to it were well done. It was modernized and yet maintained its' character. The room are small but cozy. The bathroom was nicely outfitted and supplies, including towels, were provided. A sitting room on the second floor was very cozy and provides a common area for people to meet or read. It gives you a place to go outside of your room. The location was ideal....right in the heart of Old Montreal...The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Out of all Montreal hotels, this one is recommend to anyone interested in a B & B, value and old Montreal charm. While the montreal hotels serve their purpose, this place has more charm than any of those hotels ever hope to. It was fun staying in such an old building and being right in the middle of Old Montreal! It is on a relatively quiet street; not much vehicle traffic noise. Le Guilleret is one of the few hotels in Montreal who offers free wireless Internet access, which was a big plus for many! There is also a public computer you could use in the sitting room. This Montreal hotel is a restored historic building. The hotel provides a wonderful and memorable experience.Our reward is when guests express how great the experience was. You will love the charm of the hotel. Thick stone walls, real wood beams on 10 foot ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors - this place is unbelievably beautiful. You can take a room attached to the common sitting area on the second floor. You couldn't ask for more space. The complimentary internet service (with a computer, so you don't have to bring your own). The location in Old Montreal is fantastic, within walking distance of all the places you want to go to. It is in the heart of the city's action. Staff is very friendly and helpful, it makes for a very homey feeling, and encouraged us to talk to the others who were having breakfast with us - something you don't encounter when you go to a hotel for breakfast. The price is very reasonable. You will definitely want to come back to this hotel when we come back to downtown Montreal. It is a very comfortable hotel and the personnel is charming. Staying in a historic monument is charming, much more charming than stayin in a big hotel. The walls are thick and it fells like staying in a castle. Old Montreal is one of the few places in North America that looks like the cities in Europe. And there are many activities all year around. Fireworks, street music, portraits, everywhere ther is cultural activities. Le Guilleret hotel is also nice because of it's location. You walk out in the part of Montreal that is the most popular to visitors: shops, cafes, restaurants, and more.
