Holiday Inn Montreal Centreville Downtown by IHG

The location is excellent! Turn right out of the hotel and you're in Chinatown, making it super convenient for food and shopping. It's just a few hundred meters' walk to the Old Town and Old Port, and Notre-Dame de la Garde is about 300 meters straight ahead. The train station and metro station are also within walking distance. The hotel's overall environment and hygiene are good. The decor feels a bit dated, and the bathroom's ventilation system is quite noisy, as is the air conditioning when it's on. Also, for a family of three, there were no breakfast options for three people – only for two, four, or no breakfast at all. So, we didn't get to try it and can't comment on it.

The hotel is right next to Chinatown, and the subway station is conveniently located across the street to the left of the hotel's main entrance. If you turn right from the main entrance, you'll find a Southeast Asian food street. It's a fantastic location, just a 7-8 minute walk to attractions like the Old Port, Notre-Dame Basilica, the underground city's fountains, and the Berlin Wall photo spot. What was most surprising was the hotel's Chinese-style decor, and even the food ads in the elevator were in Chinese, which felt very welcoming. We booked a twin room, and it was quite spacious with two comfortable queen-sized beds (1.5m). Some front desk staff speak Chinese, though not always available. Overall, the service was good. The only minor downsides were that the room didn't provide slippers or a kettle, and there was no complimentary bottled water.
