Hotel Omni Mont-Royal
This is the second Omni we've stayed at in Canada where the hero of the story was the doorman! Rui was so great and nice to my 5-year old, he is still talking about him!

Le Centre Sheraton Montreal Hotel
The hotel was a short easy walk from the train station for Via rail and Amtrak which is connected to a metro station as well. We felt safe walking around the area at night. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was clean. The only issue we had was loud neighbors next door but I don't blame ...

We travelled with two toddlers and the premium queen suite was perfect providing a bedroom for their naps and a good size living room. We walked everywhere, took the metro and went shopping without any problems.
