We just returned from a wonderful family getaway to Montreal with our two children, ages 16 and 20. I spent days pouring through guidebooks and trolling the web to find a place to stay, initially looking for a bargain in one of the big boutique hotels but eventually they all began to look the same and I focussed on finding... more

Auberge de la Fontaine is the perfect place for a getaway to Montreal, especially to enjoy the many pleasures of the Plateau! One of the reasons I initially chose it was the ease of getting to it - no worries about downtown traffic - it's a quick, easy and painless drive from the US. Parking is simple and convenient. There... more

The auberge offers spacious, clean rooms. The location was perfect for us. The continental breakfast was very good. Plenty of choices -- croissants, excellent cheeses and ham, a variety of cereals, good coffee, yogurts, waffles etc. -- and the staff kept replenishing things past the supposed ending time. This wasn't one of those places that makes guests fight over the... more

A friend and I went for a girl's weekend. This inn has a great location and was a good value for the money. It is walking distance to a lot of the boutiques and restaurants. My friend likes to shop and I like to sit in outdoor cafes and drink coffee or perhaps something a little stronger, so we had... more

I stayed three nights in this Auberge, room 33, second floor. It is a superior room, well furnished, confortable but, as it is often the case in Canada, the bathroom is not very large. It is true that the stair is quite challenging with heavy luggage. Staff is helpful and I want point out the pleasure of the "kitchen" (open... more

I stayed 4 nigths in early October. This is a cosy, clean and elegant hotel in a great location just across the street from Parc Lafontaine. It is also just a few blocks away from the the great restaurants and bars of the Plateau Mont-Royal. We enjoyed the fabulous breakfast buffet.. Very well presented. The service is unintimidating and very... more

I just returned from 4 nights at Auberge de La Fontaine, which I chose based on the very favorable reviews it's received on this website. It was not my first trip to Montreal, and I wanted to get away from the more hectic pace and crowding of the central city. I certainly did get away. I did not realize how... more

I stayed at the Auberge de La Fontain during the Gran Prix and my room was broken into. The thieves stole my laptop and computer bag even though it was thoroughly concealed in the closet. The hotel claimed no responsibility and apologized but said that there was nothing that they could do. Do not stay with this unreputable group. In... more

We stayed here for three nights in July, 2007. We flew in to Dorval airport and rented a car to drive into town. This charming B&B is away from downtown, but the City of Montreal is pretty concentrated, and you can be just about anywhere in minutes. I agree with a previous reviewer that is a long (maybe impractical on... more
