The contemporary, three-and-a-half-pearl Courtyard by Marriott Montreal
Downtown is a good choice for leisure and business travelers alike, situated
only a block from the convention center and an easy walk to the subway station
and Old Montreal. Its 210 rooms are spacious and clean with large, modern
bathrooms. The rooftop indoor pool and fitness center are a big plus. But rates can be pricey on certain dates, and downtown Montreal has many comparable
hotels from which to choose in equally convenient locations. Some, like the
Embassy Suites by Hilton Montreal, could offer better rates so it might pay to
compare before booking.
Scene
Classy and comfortable property that's modern and business-oriented
The Courtyard exudes class and comfort from the moment
guests enter its contemporary, airy lobby that’s highlighted by an imposing, modern
chandelier with illuminated rectangles hanging from the second floor. Tan marble floors and dark-wood
paneling line the walls and frame three front desks. Clusters of comfortable upholstered
chairs and couches with throw pillows frame glass tables and patterned rugs of
brown and soft orange highlights. Other seating areas for quiet conversations are
tucked away in the large lobby, including a secluded area around a gas
fireplace. Bar stools line a long white table with laptop plug-ins, and
computer stations with printers are nearby. Dark wood tables and walls and
circular booths highlight a tastefully decorated restaurant. A small
rectangular bar is tucked into the corner. On the top floor, meeting rooms have great views and ample natural light. The rooftop fitness and pool area gives another spot to take in great downtown views. Unsurprisingly, the property gets its fair share of business travelers, although couples are also drawn to its location and amenities.
Location
Central downtown location one block from the convention center, short walks to subway and Old Montreal
The Courtyard is centrally located in the downtown business
district, surrounded by high-rise office buildings on a busy street. It's a seven-minute walk to
the convention center and Place d’armes subway station and about an 11-minute
walk to the Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal. The heart of Old Montreal is about
a 15-minute walk away, with its restaurants, shops, and 18th century buildings. The airport is 12 miles away, approximately 22 minutes by
car or taxi and 30 minutes by public transportation.
Rooms
Spacious, clean and modern rooms with large work desks and free Wi-Fi
Continuing the hotel's modern, businesslike look, guest rooms are dominated by dark brown and tan decor in the furniture, patterned carpet, drapes, and accent walls. Dark-wood headboards are framed by lighter brown tile on accent walls behind the bed. Families praise
the availability of Double Queen Rooms that can accommodate four. Those spacious
rooms have a large desk with work space that can double in size thanks to a rolling second table tucked underneath. They're paired with ergonomic desk chairs. King Rooms offer additional space with a full couch and
coffee table. All rooms offer mini-fridges, one-cup coffeemakers, flat-screen TVs, free water and Wi-Fi, electronic safes, and speakerphones with voice mail. Tan-tiled, modern bathrooms are spacious and well lit with glass-walled showers, magnifying mirrors, and Paul Mitchell toiletries.
Features
On-site parking, restaurant, meeting space, rooftop pool, and fitness center
This 11-story Courtyard has a small, lap-style indoor pool on
the top floor adjacent to a spacious fitness center that has great
views of the city and a wide choice of top-of-the-line cardio and weight
machines. A whirlpool and sauna are also located on the top floor, as well as an outdoor
terrace. There are meeting spaces for up to 275 people in four rooms, and computer
stations, printer, fax, and copy services are available. Free Wi-Fi is accessible
throughout the hotel. The Le Darlington restaurant serves an a la carte
breakfast that is not included in the room rate and a full, continental-style
menu for lunch and dinner, along with an on-the-go choice of sandwiches,
pastries, fruit, yogurt and drinks. A small bar abuts the restaurant, and room service is available in evening hours. A small market is also on-site selling drinks and snacks. Parking
is available on-site, as is a coin-operated laundry. Valet dry cleaning and
newspapers in the lobby are available, as are concierge services.
