INTERCONTINENTAL MONTRÉAL
Beautiful building with indoor pool, near downtown Montreal, with a hotel and a traditional absinthe bar.
Ideally located, just a few minutes walk from downtown, this beautiful building, with access to the attractive Fortifications alley, was built in 1888 on three ashlar vaults. Restored in 1991, you will be able to discover (guided tour of the hotel possible) the old vaults that were used as warehouses for weapons, food and gunpowder. Please note: the hotel offers a traditional absinthe bar (one of the only ones in town!). Indoor salt water swimming pool and terrace.

The parking at this hotel is not great. Notably, the underground parking is safe but extremely expensive. The check in agent did not let us know we weren't able to access our vehicle once we parked it. We spent $75 for two nights of parking, which you must travel down a minimum of 9 levels. There is minimal signage for the hotel in the underground parking and it made our arrival frustrating.
The room itself was very comforting. We appreciated the warm calming colours, and large windows. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The water pressure and temperature in the bathroom was good as well.
All of the staff were extremely welcoming, and we did enjoy a meal at the restaurant downstairs. I would like to mention Chantal at reception was an absolute gem to speak with.
We did utilise the pool as well. The facilities were clean and quiet. The dry saunas were a nice bonus as well.
Our room had a couple minor issues. We had some burnt out light bulbs which made our stay a little inconvenient (as the rooms are dimly lit as it is). There was a housekeeping kart right outside our door on our first day and we actually needed to squeeze in sideways or constantly move the kart to get in and out of our room. And lastly, the entrance door into our room became broken and our key cards wouldn't work. We had to go down to reception, where a maintenance person came to assist. We stood in the hallway for over half an hour with no apology or compensation.
Personnel très à l'écoute et chambre très confortable
