Lovely!

Our stay at the Auberge Universal completely exceeding our expectations, and made our visit to Montreal that much more satisfying. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, I mean they were absolutely great. They advised us on how to get around, offered a shuttle to the metro, which by the way is within walking distance, which was a convenient route we also took. The room was clean and comfortable. Parking was free!!

My review of Hotel Auberge Universel Montreal

The room was a pleasant surprise. My wife kept asking me if I was sure that I only paid what I told her. It was spacious, clean and comfortable. The location was great. Just outside of downtown. Free parking at the hotel was a plus. Walking distance from the Olympic Park and Botanical Gardens. Nice restaurant!

Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

If you want to be part of the city, buy a 3 day pass to the museums and metro at the front desk. It's good for 3 days and for $50.00 you can travel and have free access to all the museums and most of the attractions. It's great fun!

great location, friendly staff

The front desk staff was very friendly. We got to the hotel a little early, and attempted to checkin two hours before the standard time, since that wasn't possible, they offered to provide us with free internet access. We then took a 5 minute drive to the downtown shops & street vendors, to do a little shopping and eat. The food tasted great.

Stayed here for a four-day 'long weekend' and it was ideal. Close to the Metro for jaunts to Old Montreal and such. Free parking for our rental car so we could get out and about.
