The rooms, restaurants, gym--all the facilities are excellent: spacious, well-appointed, with an eye to Montréal's history. The location can't be beat; it's a five minute walk to the Place d'Armes and the beautiful, historic Baslica in Vieux Montréal.
The best of all, and what will have us coming back to stay again, is the people who work there. We felt so welcomed and cared for. The people at the front desk, the concierge, and the valets recognized us, were interested in us and our experiences, and did so much to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.
I want to mention especially the waiter in the Brasserie, Gavin: he is very special. The first night we went there to eat, the restaurant was suddenly flooded with customers. Although he was the only waiter on duty, he was infinitely patient, infinitely cheerful, infinitely attentive. I don't know how he did it! He made our dining experience lovely. Because of him, we returned to eat there on the last night of our stay in Montréal.
All in all, we had a marvelous time and we will definitely stay in the Hôtel Place d'Armes again.
