Great stay for the weekend. Very accommodating with the valet service, nice looking rooms. Only complaint the shower could have been cleaner and they should consider different pillows they deflate as soon as your head hits the pillow.

Donne envie d'y retourner
Magnifique hotel. Excellent service. La suite est immense et très confortable. À noter que notre lit etait un lit escamotable. Très confortable tout de même mais le lit et les oreillers etaient très mous. Si vous aimez les lits plus fermes ce pourrait être un problème. Super bien situé, près de tout. C'était pour mon 15ième anniversaire et ils ont été complices de mes petites surprises livrées pour mon conjoint à la chambre avant notre arrivée.

Just a block from Montreals central station, this is a very convenient location for anyone travelling to and from Montreal by train. Close to shopping, the bell centre, the eaton centre and a couple metro stations, you would be hard pressed to find a more convenient location than the renaissance hotel!

I loved that this hotel was very modern, the decor was so nice. The rooms are spacious as well as the bathroom. I travelled with my husband and teenage daughter and we had plenty of room to relax. It was also located with walking distance of tour bus stations and popular tourist attractions. Thank you to the staff for making us feel welcome for our long weekend trip! The restaurant breakfast was delicious!! ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️
