Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth

this is a nice hotel with a great restaurant and if you get a room up high you can see a lot of downtown . i also enjoyed going to some of the beautiful churches that were close to the hotel and some of the other older buildings down town

We had a one night layover in Montreal on our cross country train trip. The Fairmont Queen Elizabeth was the perfect place to stay. The train station is literally right under the hotel. An elevator took us directly to the hotel lobby. Even though we arrived at 10:30 am, Andree at the front desk was very welcoming and worked hard to find a room that was ready for us. And she did! After an overnight trip on the train, being able to get into our room right away was an unexpected treat! The rooms appear to have been recently renovated. Everything was modern, clean, and in good working order. Plenty of outlets by both sides of the bed. In addition to a great location for train travel, the Fairmont is centrally located for tourist sites, as well. We walked to Old Montreal. The hotel restaurant and coffee shop were both excellent. We highly recommend the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth, and will be back the next time we're in Montreal.

I had the opportunity to stay at the QE for a few night before going to the Chateau Frontenac. The location is prefect for train travel as central station is right underneath the hotel. The room service food was delious, quick and efficient. The room decor was clean line with a 60's flair, the bathrooms are well lite and designed with black and white subway tiling. Upon leaving we went to Rosely's for Sunday Brunch, which was to die for....everything you could ever want in a brunch with a view of the cathedral and the downtown streets. What an incredible experience! I look forward to returning again next Sept!

This hotel has a lot of positives. They location is fantastic, we almost walked everywhere we went and the bus to the airport stops in front of the hotel. Also there is a train station in the same building. The lobby is very nice, with good shop and nice coffee shop. The staff is very friendly and gives you good advice. We got nice room with a view over the cathedral and everything is very clean. But there are also things that I was not very happy about. The room was rather small, we got a room for 3 people and there was almost no room for our luggage. They charge $2 per suitcase if you to store them after check out. Not much money, but it is the first hotel I have stayed at that charge for storing suitcases. But the worst thing is that I forgot a small painting in our room. I have sent 3 e-mails but never got any response. I do not understand why it is so hard to answer emails.

This hotel is so conveniently located to the train station that you don't even need to go outside to catch the train to Quebec City or the local subway system. We enjoyed a nice room overlooking the cathedral. The breakfast in the hotel was also top notch. We would stay there again.
