In mid Montreal’s entertainment quarter, this elegant hotel is filled with treats to distract you from its enticing urban surroundings. Dip in its indoor pool – a glorious sunken space flooded with light from the glazed ceiling and steps from an al fresco ‘terrace with a view’. There’s a second terrace at Bivouac, serving up views over Quartier des Spectacles. Of course, it’s the location you came for – and Doubletree by Hilton Montreal delivers it. Connected to Complexe Desjardins, it gives almost instant access to more than 100 shops and eateries, and to a subway station for city sightseeing. You can even head out for a run along Mount Royal or Canal Lachine.

The best location for the Music Festival
Aug 18, 2025wintermadeAltadena, California
We split our stay between Marriott and Hilton and frankly, Hilton won out. 10 days in Montreal for the music fest - weather was all over the place, hot, thunder, rain, lightening, humidity, chilly evenings... Anyway, being right there - above the main stage was perfect. Our other hotel was a 15-20 min walk to the Festival area. The accommodations…

We split our stay between Marriott and Hilton and frankly, Hilton won out. 10 days in Montreal for the music fest - weather was all over the place, hot, thunder, rain, lightening, humidity, chilly evenings... Anyway, being right there - above the main stage was perfect. Our other hotel was a 15-20 min walk to the Festival area. The accommodations were terrific. the breakfast buffet was very nice. The hotel was quiet, even being right there. OH! the best part - you'd run into the artists in the lobby of the hotel. We got a picture with Branford, Nate Smith, Fantastic Negrito - could not have been happier to pay a little extra for a great location.

Hotel was well appointed and maintained. Stayed there for a mother/daughter trip for 3 nights. The location was great with restaurants and activities right outside our door. It was a <10 min uber to Place d’Armes and Vieux Port area. I went to the bar for a nightcap and the service there was friendly and liquor selection was wide. I would stay there again, but if I didn’t it’s only because I’d want to see other parts of the city.

This is one of those places that should be very good but they drop the ball too often;
1- Checkin
The checkin staff did not offer Diamond upgrade despite it being confirmed a day earlier. We booked a king with sofa room and that is what we got. Rooms are good sizes and well designed so no issue. Did not get the cookie at checkin which was sad!
2- Stay
Good stay; when we requested house-keeping it was done properly and well.
3- Pool & Sauna
Nice enough pool with space for enjoying the sun on the terrace. Shame it was poorly cleaned so slippery. Ladies toilets were all bunged up and unuable.
Sauna was not working which was a shame. Pointed out to staff but no idea if they fixed but no one confirmed even when asken to confirm.
Executive Lounge & Diamond benefits;
Probably the most soul less and under used executive lounge. The ine on offer; both red & white does disservice to the hotel and staff that choose it. It is not expensive to ffer decent wine. Happy hour food was adequate but breakfast was just croissant and pastry.
We were given a voucher for a drink and entree at checkin; one for two people. fine that is the policy. Then the staff in restaurant sent us back on day one when we tried to use it saying it was not acceptable in the bar Biovuac. This was not the case but we did not have another occassion to use it between 5-7pm. Why put a useless time limit on the use?
Breakfast
Probably the biggest fail. There was no reason for this to be as bad as it was. They had a lot on offer but quality was just mediocre. It did not have to be as they had plenty of staff. The wait staff were just too busy chatting with each other and spending time filling bad coffee. Putting a couple of espresso machines would be easier and free up staff to actualy do something and immeasurably improve coffee.
Staff
Decent & well meaning staff. Just not being managed well
Checkout
Another hotel that is unable to take Apple/Google pay. Please join the real world who carries all their cards? Maria was very helpful in sorting this situation so thank you to her.
Again the experience should/could have been better

Beware of hidden charges
Aug 14, 2025Chris K
Beware of an extra 3% resort fee that's charged at the end of your stay. I checked the site and booking page and there's no mention of this fee anywhere. Numerous emails to clarify this charge goes unanswered - feels shady to just charge it without notice.

Beware of an extra 3% resort fee that's charged at the end of your stay. I checked the site and booking page and there's no mention of this fee anywhere. Numerous emails to clarify this charge goes unanswered - feels shady to just charge it without notice.
Aside from this, the room and location was good. Front desk could have explained the hilton benefits and amentities a bit better (perhaps was not fluent with English?). The restaurant host however, was helpful and provided the information needed. The housekeeping we encountered in the hall was also very friendly.
The hidden charge left a sour taste to the experience, but overall the stay was decent.

Excellent location and stay at this hotel. Within walking distance (12-15 min) to Old Montreal and Old Port. Lots of restaurants and bars around here. Pool is phenomenal--with an outdoor seating/large patio area that opens up to the pool area. Sadly, no hot tub however. Restaurant looked exquisite and was always busy, but pricey, so we opted for restaurants around the hotel. Also handy to have the underground/lower level shops and food court beneath the hotel. Parking is $40/day with unlimited come and go privileges and $15/day for so in and out privileges which is what we opted for. Staff and concierge were very friendly and extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend this hotel!
