First the pros: The location in old port is excellent. Easy to walk around the best area in town. And the staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Now the two serious cons: (1) there was no available parking. So i had to drive 3 blocks to the convention center to park my car myself and there was no arrangements with the lot for hotel guests, not even in and out privilege's. (2) the room design was not good. Too sparse, not even photos on the empty walls. But the biggest issue - the bathroom was separated by a thin curtain! This is not a usable design for a couple. I do not want to hear my partner

Great hotel right near a bunch of restaurants, bars and shops in old town. The location is perfect and even a little quieter than most in the area. The rooms and very spacious and clean. The outside is beautiful and the staff is very helpful and nice. Has a gym, restaurant, coffee and anything you need. Recommend staying here for sure!

I really wanted to love this place. I certainly did from the website when I booked our rooms.
I will say that the staff here and the front desk were all extreme nice and accommodating. Checked in and they told me that they'd upgraded me from my deluxe suite to the Terrance suite on the top floor. That was a nice surprise. Until I saw the room. It was a bit underwhelming. The modular furnishings seemed cold. There were certain details missed like soiled pillows on the sofa and exposed cords and power strips for the televisions. None of it was bad. It just didn't seem higher

I stayed here pre-COVID when the restaurant was open. I swear the French Onion Soup is the best I have ever tasted in my life. The staff are great and all speak very good English, they were super polite and friendly, despite me not speaking French. The Gault is within close proximity to downtown Old Montreal and super convenient to everything. The room was modern and spotless, with a super comfortable gigantic bed. My room was very luxurious, albeit minimalist. I loved it and highly recommend the place to anyone visiting Montreal, whether for business or just a great escape.

The staff at Hotel Gault are cold, transactional, and dishonest. We arrived after a long drive from Quebec City and were informed that we had been "upgraded" to a Junior Suite after booking a Corner Suite. Although more expensive, the junior suite is actually smaller with less windows. So we requested that they revert us back to a Junior Suite since we specifically wanted that room.
We were initially told that there were no Corner Suites left since they had all been occupied by guests due to the automatic "upgrades", so the staff called for the manager to see if anything could be done. After 30

Just stayed in this modern hotel in old Montreal. We were pleasantly assisted by a friendly and efficient young man behind the front desk during our two day stay. He remembered all requests and was eager to ensure we had everything we needed. It is located in downtown Montreal so there’s bound to be city noise. There was some road construction but the suite was quiet.

This is a wonderful hidden gem in Vieux Montreal, where even local friends weren’t aware of this hotel’s existence.
The staff are extremely accommodating, and we could tell that they had our best interest, comfort and well-being in mind. Despite external issues we encountered during our stay that were all attributed to Montreal construction in the surrounding streets, the service, and how the staff made us feel was truly excellent.
The rooms were very quiet, spacious and immensely comfortable as well.
Thank you for a wonderful experience - we are already looking forward to staying at your

The hotel staff is very friendly, but unfortunately not accommodating to requests. Although the hotel appears inviting, the room listings are very misleading. The corner loft room felt awkward and the “queen” size bed is quite small - more like a double. The electronics and tv are outdated, iron would not turn on, and fresh towels had an odd smell. We attempted to change rooms and the staff could only offer an upgrade for an additional $100 a night… seriously? Overall, really wanted to enjoy our experience here but there are apparent flaws that should be considered to accommodate future hotel

I would give negative 100 stars if I can. I paid $3,000 for a room over the weekend for 2020 formula 1 races. The race was cancelled and country was closed. I asked for a refund or for me to be able to reserve the hotel for the same event in 2022 (2021 event was closed and country still closed). Both Expedia and the hotel blames the other on rules and they would not speak with me 3 ways.
For SERVICES NOT AVAILABLE and NOT PROVIDED I was stolen $3,000.
I would not reserve this hotel. If you're going to Montreal avoid this place at all cost.

Wish there was a 6th Star. This was one of our best stay experiences. All the way from getting our car parked to check out (and after) was a great experience. The hotel is so beautiful and the staff is extremely nice and friendly. They took really good care of us and accommodated us really well when we asked for a room change (the earlier room was very nice but we wanted a better view). They upgraded us for no additional cost to a room with a balcony which was just what we needed. The only thing that didnt work too well for us was that the Air Conditioning didnt really work at night but the staff

Wow. This place really lived up to the hype. We were greeted by Kelley, who was so friendly and welcoming even at 2:30 am. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved it here and wished we stayed here instead of moving on to an Airbnb. The room felt like a studio loft, not a hotel room, we really loved everything about the layout and design. The bed was insanely comfortable, the espresso machines in the room along with the personalized card was really just icing on the cake. Can't wait to come back next time I'm Montreal.

Enjoyed a lovely one night stay at Hotel Gault while in town for an overnight work trip.
The staff welcomed me to the hotel and also were kind enough to allow me check in a bit early to freshen myself up after my flight before my work meetings. They told me they upgraded me to a larger room, which was lovely.
The room itself was great, super high ceilings with lots of natural light from the huge windows, looking out onto other beautiful buildings in Old Montreal. The space was spotless and loved all of the attention to detail, including a large desk space for working/reading plus the awesome

Really not happy with the management. I got charged an extra 50$ at check out so I asked for the Manager but he was not around I then called twice as I was asked to do but manager was never available and never returned my calls but hotel charged my card the extra 50$ despite the fact the front desk girl said my card wont be charged until the manager gets back to me.
Not sure how many more times I have to waste to try to reach the manager this is the last thing on top of my list so really hoping to hear back from the hotel management to resolve the extra charge !

My fiancé and I live in the US, and decided to get married in Montreal. We chose Hotel Gault in the heart of the old city for our stay. In order to be married, plans needed to be finalized in advance of our trip and Ahmed, the concierge, was thoughtful and attentive in helping us sort out and organize all the details. Then, from the moment we checked in, we were treated with warmth and courtesy by the entire Gault team. They made us feel welcomed and that it was important that our event be as beautiful as it could possibly be. The hotel itself is gorgeous, with a great blend of old elegance balanced

Heads up for travelers hoping to get a good nights sleep... there is a disco/club very near (a couple doors over) from Hotel Gault that dumps drunk, noisy patrons out onto the street at 3am, Wednesday- Sunday. If you're staying in a street room (I was in 150) be prepared to be woken up. 3am-4am, yelling, screaming, singing, etc. my husband wondered aloud if there was a riot happening.
Front desk was empathetic, but that didn't help.
Bed was comfortable, room was decent- but my stay was ruined by the disrupted sleep.

We stayed here for one night mid week. It was our first time in Montreal so we did not know what to expect. When we arrived, we noticed that parking was a challenge. We found a spot on the street, but was told by the front desk not to park on the street. Apparently you only option is the valet which is an extra $30.
Check in was a breeze and the room was very comfortable. When we walked into the room, the TV was on with Classical music. The Nespresso machine was also a plus. Later in the evening, a thank you letter was dropped off.
The only downside was that there was no tub in the room

This was one of the most enjoyable hotel stays, and it really came down to the service. Yes, the hotel room was lovely and the location was perfect for exploring old Montreal, but it was really the small touches that made Hotel Gault stand out. From the moment we pulled up, confused about parking, the staff seemed genuinely interested in making us feel welcome. After a 5+ hour drive, the immediate offer of tea was particularly thoughtful. I was especially touched that the bartender, Ahmed, for asking if we'd ever been to Montreal and, upon realizing we had not, immediately pulled out a map

We loved staying here... I cannot say enough good things about the service! They could not be more accommodating!
Normally we are not high maintenance guests, but this trip was different. We were packing in a lot of fun in a short time...
When we checked in, they had already upgraded us. Lovely. (Thank you!)
We had a number of special requests:
- would they store our Easter Basket so our son won't see it
- would they decorate our room for someone's birthday and have a dessert with candles (as a surprise)
- would they make us brunch with the bagels we picked up at Fairmont bagels

Lovely Hotel.
Centrally located boutique hotel in the old quarter of Montreal. Friendly staff, tastefully designed, and big rooms with a super comfy bed. Neither my wife or I heard any hotel noise from other guests while we were there. Our room had two large operable windows which we opened to enjoy the fresh air. The staff left cookies for us every night with turn down service. And for those guests that wanted a workout, they had a very serviceable training room with free weights.
I took away a star for the tiny bar and the lack of food options. I think they did serve breakfast, but I

You know how some places are almost perfect Hotel Gault is an almost perfect.
The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They made our dinner reservations and suggested a great bar for us to go to nearby. The bar and restaurant suggestion was excellent.
They brought up fresh baked cookies after check in.
The downside is just my opinion. They are currently located in the middle of quite a bit of construction. They can't help that, but it does make it harder to get there by car.
It is easy walking distance to Old Town Montreal and the room was very quiet.

Prior to arrival, I had emailed regarding questions which were promptly answered. If you need a small empty fridge, you are outta luck as they don't provide this. They can store some items in their fridge, if you'd like though. To print boarding passes, we emailed them our passes. Seems a bit of a hassle since they didn't have a printer for the computer in the lobby but concierge brought it up promptly!
At arrival, you are greeted by concierge asking if you'd like complimentary water, tea, or coffee. Upon entry, I love how on the study desk, there were cookies + a card addressed

First time in Montréal and I had the pleasure of visiting Hotel Gault. I didn't stay here but the conference was held here in their lobby.
Its a boutique hotel located in Old Montréal. The interior style was modern with a twist of nineteenth century architecture. The exposed brick in the individual rooms were awe inspiring. Something out of a movie scene. The hotel is updated but you can feel the history in the air.
If you drive by, you almost miss it. At least I did several times but the street is only so big. I'm used to huge American signs and awnings. This place is very true

Our three-day stay in Montreal was really good because of the Hotel Gault. There are almost too many good things to list! The price is very affordable, they offer valet parking, the rooms are large and clean, they leave cookies in your room for you (!!!), the bed is comfy, they have a nice turn-down service, the staff makes GREAT recommendations for where to eat, and Ahmed the bartender/sommelier is AWESOME. Very friendly, and he will make you a great drink!
A couple of (very small) potential cons to consider: it can get a little loud at night if you're facing the street, and the bathroom

Outstanding boutique hotel in the Preferred Hotels chain. Nice, quiet location in Old Town and within a short stroll to Victoria Station metro (3-5 minute walk) or St. Laurent bus stop (5-7 minute walk) for exploring other sections of Montreal such as Plateau/Mt. Royal, Mile End, and Little Italy.
Upon check-in, I was greeted with a complimentary upgrade (do sign up in advance for their Iprefer rewards program)....room was huge and was a corner room with nice wrap around windows with views and plenty of sunlight. Very comfortable bed and nice rain shower.
