I'm going back for sure! Great staff, they always find a way to help you. The place is always clean, conveniently located, and has plenty of options to stay. The neighborhood is walkable in the summer as the main street, St. Catherine closes for cars and it's for pedestrians, patios and activities. The bus to the airport and the Metro (subway) and other busses are only a few short blocks away. You can walk to Old Montréal in good weather if you'd like. Chinatown is also nearby. So many options to eat. Great spot. Thank you Nicolas and the whole team of front desk for making Easy to stay here so many years.

IT WAS AWESOME. The staff is so nice and there are a lot of events during the week! The hostel is also very close to the metro station so the location is perfect!

A hostel that absolutely defies the hostel stereotype. Premium rooms, fantastic amenities, and convenient location near the Berri-UQAM subway hub. Staff are very helpful and available at all hours of the night. Diarmuid and Isaac, who work the front desk night shift, know how to look out for all the interesting patrons that wander back to their rooms during wee-hours of the night (including myself). Should be the top choice for those looking for an affordable, but still posh, place to stay in MTL.

3.5 is my rating… 3 for the dorms and 4 for the private room. The staff were friendly and helpful. Location was central but in a more rough area. The first night we stayed in a dorm room because they were sold out of king rooms and we were told to bring back our bedding to the front desk… I’ve never experienced this in a hostel before (I’ve stayed in plenty around the world). Personally, I think my patience for hostels is now limited… I probably would only stay in one again when travelling solo because we had some inconsiderate dorm mates. If I would have known the sheets needed to be removed by guests in dorms, I probably would’ve just picked a hotel because I was looking for a more relaxing experience. In the second two nights, we stayed in a king room, which was great! I recommended the private rooms, 100%.
The overall atmosphere felt much more like a hotel, which is fine for me… but if you’re looking to meet people, perhaps this isn’t the spot for you. The cafe was affordable for a bite to eat in the morning, but the bar downstairs had the most expensive beer we saw in Montreal (more than in touristy old Montreal even), I found this atypical for a hostel.
Overall, if you must stay in a hostel, this place is clean and central… but in Canada, hostels aren’t amazing and I suggest you try to find a hotel instead if you can make the budget work.

Mon expérience à M Montréal a été juste extraordinaire! Le staff est très accueillant. J'ai eu la chance de faire mon Check-in et Check-out avec Emma, un rayon de soleil, souriante et pleine de bons conseils pour vous faire adorer Montréal.
En bref, j'ai été à plus d'une centaine d'hostel à travers la planète et je place M Montréal facilement dans mon Top 3 !

More of a hotel than a hostel in both pricing and experience.
The good: Central location near the metro, clean and nicely furnished rooms with a smart design (locker integrated in bed)
The bad: No breakfast included, only purchasable at an expensive rate, same with washing machines and dryers (10$ is quite the premium).
The ugly: Does not have the hostel experience, interaction is rare between guests and makes it feel sterile. Price is one of the highest I have seen so far, for that you at least get cleanliness and good furniture.
Too long didnt read: Pricy but clean, more of a hotel with no breakfast than a hostel where you will meet interesting characters

The M is a wonderful place to stay! My travel companion and I have stayed there twice now for a total of 10 nights on trips to visit a dear friend of ours (who conveniently lives just around the block ????), and it was a great experience both times.
The rooms are tidy and stylish, the staff is kind and courteous, and the whole property just has a great vibe. Berri-UQAM is a 5-minute walk at worst, and the Village has so many great shops, restaurants, and attractions.
My only warning is if you have a large vehicle (think like an F-150 or Chevy Tahoe or larger), you may not be able to fit in the on-site parking garage. I was able to get my Buick Enclave in and out okay, but it was a struggle when there were other similar-sized SUVs in the garage. There is both an above-ground lot (not owned by the M) across the street, as well as an underground parking lot in Place Dupuis that can accommodate larger vehicles, so you won't have to park too far away even if!
So yeah, as long as you aren't needing to park a behemoth of a vehicle on-site, the M will almost certainly satisfy all your needs and then some! We'll definitely back whenever we're in Montréal.

Interesting "capsule hostel" concept. The price is good however the room I stayed in smelled terrible. The location is also in a pretty seedy part of Montreal. But excluding this, the quality of the facilities is impressive, honestly the best I've seen in a hostel. So despite my subpar experience I might give them another try in the future.

J'ai été très bien accueilli malgré mon arrivé a 0h30, ils ont su trouvé le plan qu'il me fallait et me mettre très à l'aise a travers toutes les prestations et lieu qu'offre par défaut cet Hôtel. Merci beaucoup a Isaac pour sa sympathie et son attention toute particulière a mon égard ????
Je recommande fortement de cet Hôtel aussi accueillant qu'agréable

Excellent Rapport qualité/prix. Motel de jeunesse avec une très bel ambiance, situé à GAY VILLAGE, quartier très célèbre de Montréal. Le partage de chambre avec plusieurs personnes a été une nouvelle expérience. Mais la direction de l'hôtel devait se pencher sur la question de l'aération des chambres communes. Et définitivement je le recommande aux aventuriers et bourlingueurs comme moi.

Recomiendo el hostal, en la recesión si hay chicas que hablan varios idiomas entre ellos español, lo único que les recomiendo si se hospedanen este lugar que lleven una tarjeta de crédito internacional por que se deja un depósito y no lo aceptan en efectivo, gracias por todo

Le meilleur hostel que j'ai visité à Montréal! À chaque visite le staff est accueillant et les chambres sont propres à 120% (oui, même les salles de bain!)

Vol de bijoux dans les chambres par le personnel de ménage
Ils ont d'abord laissé entendre qu'ils n'étaient pas responsables car ce devait être les personnes partageant la chambre qui étaient coupables (principe de l'aubergede jeunesse étant d'être avec des inconnus), sauf que je ne partageais la chambre qu'avec des personnes que je connaissais depuis plusieurs années. Ils maintiennent avoir confiance en leurs équipes de nettoyage, je vous conseille donc de ne surtout rien laisser, même si pas en vue, en dehors des casiers cadenassés sous les lits.

+ Confortable et pratique, propre, tout simple mais bon rapport qualité/prix. Ça vaut la peine de faire un tour par la boutique "Fringues" au rez-de-chaussée..
