HÔTEL ÉPIK MONTRÉAL

Great place to stay. I'm sensitive to noise and this place was quiet, only minimum noise from air conditioning. No road noise( 2,nd floor road side rm).maybe quieter than other rooms as it had double windows. minimal guest noise. Great shower, nice breakfast, super location, nice staff. Easy to communicate in English.

Ein sehr schönes uriges Hotel zum wohlfühlen. Die Lage ist perfekt und fußläufig sind Sightseeingbus und Schiff, sowie Notre Dam und Restaurants schnell zu erreiche. Das Hotel hat zwar keinen eigenen Parkplatz, aber man hat die Möglichkeit in unmittelbarer Nähe reichlich Parkmöglichkeiten zu finden. Die Zimmer sind sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und versprühen einen eigenen Charme. Es gibt eine kleine Lunchbox zum Frühstück mit Kaffee und Orangensaft und das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.

Ein wirklich tolles kleine Hotel, mit sehr individuellen Charme/Charakter. Die Zimmer waren etwas kleiner aber dafür so gemütlich und mit Herz eingerichtet wie in kaum einen anderen Hotel. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Ein kleines aber leckeres Frühstück, mehr braucht es nicht. Gern wieder.

There is a few let down about this hotel, here is my honest review:

#1 No hot water for the shower.

#2 No ice machine on floors. We had to request ice at the reception and the employee didn't know how/where to get ice.

#3 The next morning, around 10h, there were a lot of noises coming from the corridor, I think the staff started to clean the room next door. We requested a late checkout but we were unable to enjoy our room with all the noises. (Paper thin wall, I guess this is to be expected with old hotel..)

#4 When we checked in, we were told that the included breakfast was available until 11am. The next day we call at 10h30 to order our breakfast to get told that they do not serve breakfast anymore and the deadline was 10am. We have been misinformed and this is an other inconvenience that is added on top of the others.

For a VERY small queen bed room with no refrigerator, no ice machine on the floor, no HOT WATER. I don't think this is worth 450$cad for one night. I had much better experiences with other hotels for half the price (with better location!)

I am leaving this Google review because it seems funny to me that the rating/review for this hotel is that high considering the experience we had. I personally find the positive reviews are exagerated. (FYI I never left a bad review for an hotel...or a review in general.) Also the picture on their site is not that accurate. It is not as "clean/neat" as it looks. It is an old building, and the room are old as well. (For example, our bathroom door was not closing properly. Ac unit on the ceiling get smashed by the door if you open the door too wide...I don't really mind, but the picture doesn't tell you that.)

I gave it a 2/5...but hypothetically even if everything was great (if we had hot water, our free breakfast and if it was quiet in the morning)...for this price range it would not worth more than a 3/5. Trust me, the room is overpriced for what you get.

We still had a great night with our friends, but for all the reasons above, I will not book this hotel again.

Just returned from a long-weekend stay at Hotel Epik in the absolute heart of Old Montreal. Had an amazing experience overall. Treated ourselves to Room 300, the Penthouse Suite. This is - easily - one of the nicest hotel rooms I have ever experienced. A delightful architectural blend of old (exposed brick, wooden beams and trusses) and new (modern, contemporary appliances throughout the unit, including full glass rain showers with mood lighting, and a Nespresso machine, which was a nice morning perk). The views were amazing (particularly the top bedroom, which is a glassed-in alcove); the complimentary breakfast (delivered to the room each morning) was an added bonus, and the hotel staff were fantastic. The unit has 2 exclusive patios: one large patio off the main living area, and one smaller patio off the top bedroom. Walking distance to restaurants, bars, and many local points of interest. Nearest Metro stop is Place des Armes, which was perhaps a 10-minute walk. Weekend noise was a minor issue - if you are a very light sleeper - bring soft earplugs for sleeping, and you'll be fine.
Highly-recommend, and would definitely return.
