InterContinental Montreal

Montreal, Canada

Virgin rating

The hotel

Having recently been the proud recipient of a ‘Best Renovations’ award, the Intercontinental Montréal offers luxury accommodation in one of the city’s most sought after locations. Combining the exclusivity of a boutique hotel with top-tier service, guests are most certainly in for a treat when staying here, relaxing in rooms that are sumptuously furnished with plenty of space to stretch out in. On the 10th floor is the fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment and aerobic classes. Alternatively, head to the indoor pool to swim a few laps or chill out in the spa tub. Osco! means ‘bravo!’, a sentiment you’ll heartily agree with at the Intercontinental’s signature restaurant, a Province-inspired brasserie with an ever-changing menu. There’s also the Sarah B Bar, named after Sarah Bernhardt, the queen of the French Tragedy, whose spirit is said to wander the vaults of the hotel — so keep your eyes peeled! At ‘green hour’, Absinthe is served. Known as the ‘green fairy’ it was said to enhance the creative energies of the great 19th century European writers and artists, including Sarah Bernhardt, but beware, at 55–75% proof, it’s not a tipple for the faint hearted!

Great hotel, helpful staff, nice bar and restaurant. Attentive breakfast staff with a great buffet selection or order from menu. Decent sized room, comfortable bed. Would stay again. Nice area to explore. Hotel looks very festive at this time of year.

My husband and I recently spent 6 days at the Intercontinental Montreal. It was a fantastic experience. Not only did we have a spectacular view of the St. Lawrence River from our spacious room, we planned numerous activities with the help of Josée, concierge extraordinaire. We booked a variety of excursions including a walking food tour and a tour of Old Montreal. We enjoyed two delicious meals at the hotel restaurant Osco! We were delighted to try oysters we’d never had before: Lucky Limes from PEI. We also had the pleasure of meeting the hotel manager Phillip and found him to be engaging and helpful. The service all around was spectacular. You really get the sense that the entire staff at the hotel cares about your having the best experience possible. For all these reasons and for its proximity to Old Montreal, making it a short walking distance to many historical sites, museums, art galleries and restaurants, we highly recommend Intercontinental Montreal.

Nice hotel. The old style is charming and the place is well maintained so I enjoyed it. Has more class than your typical Intercontinental.

Nice hotel. The old style is charming and the place is well maintained so I enjoyed it. Has more class than your typical Intercontinental. For those of you going to the convention center this place is very convenient: Just cross the street and you are in the convention center. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Only minor disappointment was the breakfast buffet which was very standard chain-hotel breakfast. Because the hotel looks really nice you forget you are in an Intercontinental and I had hoped for something a bit nicer. But the breakfast space is very nice. Overall, I will certainly come back here. Read less

Wonderful well run hotel. Always enjoy staying here. Rooms are lovely, spacious and spotless. Sheets and towels are exceptional. All of the staff in this hotel are fantastic - super friendly and helpful. Great location - right in the middle between old city and downtown. Plus, great value. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else!!

My wife and I had booked a club room for four nights. When we arrived at the hotel we were informed that the club dining facility would not be available for the duration of our stay. Our bedroom was dark, dingy and in urgent need of renovation. A lick of paint on the skirting boards and cobweb removal would help the situation immensely. There are… Read more

There are far better hotels in Montreal to stay in believe me. Read less
