Foret-la-Blanche Ecologische Reserve

Nice place in a perfect location for nightlife/ walking around Old Montreal. Close access to metro too.

Dit hotel wordt veel beter voorgesteld dan het is. In werkelijkheid heeft het z'n beste tijd gehad. Mijn kamer was zeer donker, en niet zo proper, vooral de douche niet. De ramen waren zo vuil dat je er met moeite kon door zien. Mijn kamer was boven het onderliggend restaurant dat luidsprekers op het terras heeft hangen die tot na middernacht zeer luide muziek spelen. Het ontbijt was de moeite en kost niet waard.

The hotel is 5-star and fantastic. No question. The staff could not possibly have been kinder or more helpful. The room was spotless, if small, and the marble and quartz tiled bath was impressive. The location on the Golden Mile was unsurpassed as well. However, I reserved this short stay with my 10-yr old son kind of in a hurry, and there were some things I neglected to confirm. First is...there is no pool in the hotel. Wow. My son was SO looking forward to jumping in the pool the second we arrived after a long hot day of travel. Boo. As a result, and the staff was immensely helpful with this, we were forced to learn the local subway system, and buy tickets to a nearby water park. Unfortunately some kid fouled the pool an hour after we arrived and our day there was done. But again, the staff was great to help us navigate the adventure. Second, and it's just so pedestrian of us, but there was no mini fridge or even chest of dresser drawers in the room. I mean, there were a couple of small drawers but not what you expect. We dined extravagantly the first evening and hoped to save leftovers for the next day. Nope. [Yes, I could have asked the kitchen to refrigerate our box of haut cuisine...but come on.] The bougie class obviously travels differently from us plebs. So I get it. But next time it's the Marriott for me...get the amenities we pedestrians expect!
