The hotel is situated in the deep heart of Montreal, next to the bus terminal, on the famous street Saint-Hubert at few steps of Saint-Denis Street. The area is known for its many coffee-terraces, restaurants, bookshops, specialized shops of all kinds. We offer peaceful, comfortable and luxurious rooms at prices which defy any competition. Only one visit will convince you to stay.
This is the sleaziest hotel I've ever stayed in. Bedbugs...broken window latch...I can vouch that these are all true. For your own safety and peace of mind, please spend the extra dollars and book your stay at a commercial hotel. Spare yourself the added stress! We certainly learned our lesson. Hotel de L'Elysee should be closed down!

I have stayed at many hotels in montreal...ranging from Taj Mahal to Hotel Gault, and this has to be the most disgusting experience I've ever had. We booked for the august long weekend, and ended up leaving after the first night. Please don't get fooled by the ideal location, it is a pig sty and infested with bed bugs. we didn't notice them until the next morning when I and my friend were literally covered with oozing welts on our faces and necks. We called for the manager, who never came. We demanded that someone come up to see the headboard and bed, and nobody came. We finally had to go down to the front desk and get the owner on the phone. The staff was unfriendly and spoke little english/french. I thought it fishy that they tried to charge me three nights, in…

pros 1)strategically located 2)reasonably priced cons 1)paper thin walls - if anyone is up.....you are up. Its not a hotel, it is a row home with hotel rooms in it. 2)slightly seedy neighborhood 3)unhelpful staff 4)breakfast is ....no joke ...wonder bread, a toaster and horrible coffee 5)hard to commuicate with front desk (english or french)....when some one is even there. I was very dissappointed with this Hotel. Where do I start. Well, let me start by saying this is my first review despite using tripadvisor many times. I felt I needed to save the next guy the headache I got with this hotel. I suspect that the ratings of this hotel may have been pumped up by friends or relatives of the owner because I usually find the reviews here to be on the money. I would also like…

The location of this hotel was a bit far out of the city for my liking. Although only a 20 minute walk or three metro stops, it was too far for a tourist in winter with only three days to see it all. Although the street was safe and only 4 minute walk from the metro stop, I would much rather stay closer to the city centre. This is a very old building that has been recently renovated. It does need a lift however; it's not fun lugging your bags up all those stairs. The guys at the front desk are really nice, they let me use their internet for free. The room was quiet and spacious. The bathroom was rather small in comparison. I would not stay here again, only due to the hotel's out-of-town location.

We spent two days in Montreal during our honeymoon. Since we hadn't booked any hotels we chose this hotel by tripadvisor because of its review. We have been very well. We couldn't stay there one day more because there wasn't rooms available but fortunately we met Sam (reception). He was so kind to help us to find an other hotel. This hotel could be compared with two/three stars european hotel. R&G Italy

I have just arrived from wonderful trip to Montreal. Unfortunately, Hotel de L'Elysee was not part of the "wonderful" equation. I had booked this hotel because I was looking for a cheaper place to stay, as I was only staying one night, and wanted the basics. I read all the reviews on Tripadvisor carefully, so it seemed to fit. I always use the tripadvisor reviews before booking a hotel, and have never been disapointed. Once I arrived I did have help from one gentleman who helped bring my luggage up the stairs. I asked him if there was and breakfast and he said no. That was fine with me, but I did think it odd, as it was mentioned in the other reviews that they provided a small breakfast. Once I got back in from my meetings, I was looking forward to sleeping, as I had an early…

I went with a group of friends, 7 in total. We stayed in 2 rooms. Elysee was one of the few clean and decent small hotls/bed & breakfast. Upon our return in the evening, there would be a clean sets of towels. Upon request, they would bring up a hair dryer, pretty quickly. Some of us knew French BUT were rusty. Cesar & Eddie were friendly and nice enough to call local restaurants and tour places for us. We were also able to leave messages for each other at the front desk. The place is not in the center of things but it was easily accesible. Would go again.

The best part of the hotel was not only the friendly service (especially Sam!) but the location. We flew into the Dorval airport, took the airport shuttle ($13.50 Canadian) and it dropped us off literally less than a minute's walk from the hotel. It was very easy to find. Sam was great and carried our luggage 4 flights of stairs - that was wonderful. We were able to walk to Old Montreal and also to Downtown area with ease. The Berry-UQAM metro stop (note this was an intersecting stop meaning it connected to other lines) was also right on the corner. The Banque Nationale was only a couple of blocks away on St. Catherine Street - it had the best exchange rate. There is a wonderful crepe place around the corner on Maisonneuve and we loved the La Brioche Lyonnaise right on…

We would definitely stay in this hotel again. The room was very clean though small. The location was great. Parking not a problem we got a spot on the street right in front of the hotels entrance. Good free coffee and croisants in the morning. The only complaint was towels the size of washcloths, would bring my own next time. Overall this is a great limited service hotel that is perfect for travelers who only like to use their hotel room as a place to sleep and shower.
