I found an incredible deal on a room at the Inter-Continental through Hotwire and booked it as a surprise birthday present for my boyfriend. The staff were uniformly friendly. professional and engaging, and the room was as expected for a 4-star hotel. The location is really convenient; a subway stop and all local amenities are within easy walking distance (even in Montreal's January cold. brrr). The room we were given was in the 17th floor and looked like it could do with a bit of a renovation; there were some corners where wallpaper had started to peel away from the wall, and some of the furnishings looked a little faded. The gym was great, it was filled with old-school fixed weight systems which allowed you to work specific muscle groups. They were really sturdy and of good quality, even if they weren't the latest. There were also of course the usual electronic elliptical trainers as well. I didn't get a chance to use the pool as it was closed for the evening when we arrived. Overall I would love to return especially during off-peak seasons and definitely if there was another deal on Hotwire.

An excellent location for walking and touring Old Montreal. I booked on priority points and was given a great room overlooking the river and Habitat.

The concierge and front desk were most helpful. It is a wecloming place with excellent service and quality. Would highly recommend it.

You may walk the area or take the Metro to any other area of Montreal you might want to visit. I took the train in from Dorval (near airport) and walked from the commuter train stop to the hotel. This is about a mile but the day was beautiful.

The lunch restaurant Gourmand and Olives was a neat bistro with many local people. The dinner restaurant Chasse et Peche was recommended to me by a chef I knew but the hotel confirmed it was excellent and it was.

This is a place to be.

I bid on and won this hotel on Priceline $70. It must be new because the place is flawless. It is absurd they wanted to charge me $35 for a roll away. The location, the soaps, sheets larger rooms, wide halls. Id not understand why this hotel is not higher rated. From what I saw it would be hard to beat.

Booked this hotel through Priceline and got a great deal. For a few bucks more than the one-star hotels with the dirty carpets, we stayed in the Intercontinental's beautiful, well-appointed, comfortable room on the 23rd floor with a beautiful view of the park, Mont-Royal, and the city. It is a pleasure to stay here, I don't want to leave!
