Auberge Du Vieux Port

Couldn’t be any better! Charm of Old Montréal is everywhere here! Beautiful old brick and stone walls with wood floors throughout… rooms, lobby, tavern, even the public restrooms! All fixtures are modern and hotel is spotlessly clean! Staff couldn’t be more helpful and courteous! The ala carte breakfast included in the room rate is fantastic… try the Eggs Benedict! Shower and matress in the room were unbelievable… rain shower with body jets! My wife said the matress was best she’s ever slept on! I couldn’t ever visit Montréal again and not stay here!

Beautiful loft with a kitchen! Stayed 3 nights. Great location in beautiful Old Montréal and the staff were incredible. Very very lovely people! Definitely worth spending a little extra! Thank you all for a wonderful stay in your city!

Stayed on the 3^rd floor during our honeymoon. The service was all around exquisite, very detail oriented and catered to our every need. Concierge took care of everything from reservations to helping is locate lost luggage and bringing it to us at the airport. The included breakfast is the best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had and the entire restaurant/​bar is lovely. ¹⁰⁄₁₀

I have so many nice things to say that I may run out of space in this review! Where to begin? The physical space is boutique and cozy, yet modern. The bed was extremely comfortable, and room service impeccable. A nearby spa will come to provide in-​room massages (and the one I had was fabulous). Breakfast at taverne Gaspar downstairs is included and very good. The best part? Michael! He made reservations for us for a special dinner and sent wine to our room to celebrate our anniversary. He always greeted us with a smile and asked how our trip was going. He is an amazing asset to this hotel! The location on the water is very convenient to restaurants and shops. We walked everywhere, never calling a taxi once. The winter season is quieter for the Vieux Port area, as many gelato shops and such close down, but we still had many great meals and found great local shops nearby. We will be back to Auberge without hesitation!

Really cool boutique hotel in Montréal. The staff is very pleasant and speaks excellent English. Its near the old town area of the city and is great to walk to restaurants and shopping. My room had an awesome shower and very comfortable bed. It has old world charm but is decorated in a Euro trending style. I even hung out in the lobby for a while as its very comfortable. Skip the chain hotel and give this one a try.

An absolute gem of a hotel. We stayed two nights. Every one of the staff is genuinely kind and friendly. The rooms are well appointed and very comfortable. The included breakfast was superb. We ate and drank at the restaurant which has very good food and a great wine list plus the rooftop terrace is quite lovely. Wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else upon returning to Montréal… The hotel is ideally located. It is in a touristy area but close to some fantastic non touristy restaurants a few blocks away. This hotel is a great place to stay!

Spent three nights at the auberge for our anniversary and had a great time would highly recommend this Hotel. The staff was great everybody was very attentive to all our needs. it is truly a hidden gem. Looking forward to another visit.

Great place to stay! I just had the pleasure of spending 2 nights at this hotel for a birthday celebration. We were in room 505 — nice accommodations, the bed is SUPER comfy and the shower and bath are luxurious and relaxing. The whole feel is very romantic and european. Not the greatest view looking out at a modern brick apartment building from this room, however pop your head out the french style shutter windows and you get a great view either way of Rue St Paul and even a peek-​a-​boo view of the basilica Notre Dame. Cute little electric fireplace in the room doesn’t let off heat but it provides ambiance.
Most of the staff was excellent — Patrick at the front desk was excellent as were the bellboys/​valets Frankie and Steven. All gave excellent advice about what to see and where to go/​eat in the vicinity. We only encountered 1 rude cleaning staff member in the elevator who was huffing and puffing and making faces for some unknown reason. Maybe she was just having a bad day.
Really it was a great stay! The hotel even had a birthday card and complimentary brownies and strawberries waiting for us in the room when we checked in.
Cooked to order breakfast was included at Taverne Gaspar — definitely try the crepes and the eggs Benedict were also delicious!
the waitress was also very sweet and remembered our preferences for breakfast the second morning.
I plan to go back in the summer to check out more outdoor activities and enjoy the terrace bar which is only open from May/​June — August/​September.
Tip: The elevator is VERY VERY slow (our bellboy told us it’s so slow that they had to put a TV in there) and there is only one, so give yourself a couple of extra minutes going in and out.

Everything about the hotel is absolutely wonderful. From the view, the location, the staff, the amenities, etc, everything was top notch. We reserved a river view, which was absolutely gorgeous, and had a perfect view of the NYE fireworks. While a small way from the metro station, there’s plenty of small shops and interesting places all within a very short walking distance.
When we checked in, we were greeted with smiles and a very friendly vibe. Check in was quick, easy, and we were to our rooms very quickly. Since NYE was just around the corner, they gave both of us glasses of champagne as well. While I already had dinner reservations, I highly appreciated their initiative to ask us if they could get us dinner reservations from the nearby restaurants.
Complimentary ²⁴⁄₇ coffee, tea, hot chocolate, fruit flavored water, and cookies was a wonderful addition. With the cold outdoors, it’s nice to know there’s always hot coffee, chocolate, or water waiting for us back at the hotel.
The restaurant, which is attached to the hotel, had excellent breakfasts. They had a special holiday brunch for New Year’s Day available which was fantastic. Service was immaculate and the food was delicious. The normal breakfast provided was, also, better than any average hotel complimentary breakfast.
The two main concerns I had going into this hotel, from reviews on Trip Advisor, was the noise and the temperature. However, even with the NYE concert going on the port, it was easily manageable if you wanted to sleep (not that we were on NYE). And the temperature was excellent.
Wi-​Fi was good, but not great. Definitely worked better towards the middle of the building than towards the windows.
The only thing that was a little strange, was maybe 15 minutes after we arrived in our room, one of the employees knocked on our door, and I was a little lazy and slow to get out of bed, and he let himself in. Luckily I had the door chain attached, otherwise, he would have gotten an eyeful of my birthday suit, not something either of us would have wanted. In the end, he stopped by to take our champagne glasses we took to our room and ask if everything was to our liking.
Overall, excellent place and exceeded all my expectations.

The view is a pretty good one. The service was with the smiling friendly. The prices were a little expensive for a limited selection. They only had two beers on tap and no other bottled beers. They had the usual liquors but no original Canadian or French beers. It’s a little difficult to find because you have to go down into the basement and then find your way up some elevators to the rooftop because it is part of a hotel. The atmosphere is casual and it can be fun unless it is windy or it starts to rain

I loved our stay here! The hotel building and rooms are beautiful and well-​maintained. It was such a treat to throw open the huge windows, and enjoy a tea while watching the day start. Fantastic toiletries and linens too.
As for service, everyone was extremely helpful and kind. They were happy to oblige bringing the complimentary breakfast to our room, pushing housekeeping to a bit later, and arranging for taxi service back to the airport.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to call home during our time in Montréal!

Such a beautiful hotel, in a great location. The weather was bone-​chilling cold (says the trueblood Texan), which made walking into the hotel even more fabulous.
The service was impeccable. The front desk girl smiled the whole time and was incredibly helpful in answering our questions about the food and entertainment nearby. I consider myself heterosexual but she was so cute and nice and sweet that I swear I wanted to ask her out on a date.
After leaving the front desk a little confused about my own sexuality, we got to our lovely room with a massive whirlpool jacuzzi in the bathroom. The warm bath feels amazing after walking around in the frigid cold. Ample bath salts are provided, as well as nice robes to slip into after your bath.
The only disappointment was the «fake» fireplace, which blew hot air but really we were kind of dismayed that they would have advertised the room as having a fireplace when really it’s just a wall fixture of flickering flame-​like light. Not enough to dock a star.
The breakfast (included) is wonderful– there are a few options on the menu, and a waitperson actually comes around and takes your order. Some pastries, breads, and juices are placed out in buffet-​fashion as well. We wished we could have stayed longer!

My wife and I came for our anniversary… pulled up and we’re met by Frederic, one of two front-​of-​house employees who has worked here around 10 years (that tells me they take care of employees). He provided a comfortable welcoming first impression.
We booked because we liked the look of the rooms with exposed brick and wood floors. The view of the port and rustic design in the rest of the hotel were a bonus we didn’t expect.
The bed was super comfortable including those big soft oversized down pillows. We slept like babies. The shower was AWE-​some as it was one of those new rain shower heads.
Overall we were happy with our stay and tried to get out of our reservation at another place so we could stay one more night with no luck. Very friendly staff and included breakfast in a prime location make this a solid choice.

On a recent trip to Montréal I wanted to splurge on a romantic locale for three nights and Auberge Du Vieux Port was the top recommendation on Trip Advisor in that category. Many of the reviews mentioned the noise from upper guests (that you could hear walking, furniture dragging, etc.) but not one person mentioned the most important (and one for which there isn’t really a solution from the hotel) type of noise: neighbouring noise.
The hotel backs onto a pedestrian cobblestone street called St-​Paul that is open to foot traffic until 5am every morning. There is also a rowdy live music venue next door called 2 Pierrots that produced stumbling, shrieking, singing patrons at the brink of alcohol poisoning every night, so unless you’re a deep sleeper or are comfortable wearing earplugs to bed, you won’t sleep a wink. I’m not exaggerating when I say that some of the bellows and crashing sounds every night I heard sounded like a frat party gone awry.
The hotel staff was apologetic and accommodating (seriously, the staff here is great) but admitted that as the weekend wore on, the noise was only going to get worse (and it did) — they upgraded me to a room on a higher level which made it slightly better, but the best rooms here are riverside, so splurge on those if you stay here. For $ 300+ per night I was expecting my stay to be a little more… charming. It’s an old building so the windows aren’t in great shape (read: soundproof).
Because of the restless nights (and possibly jet lag) I can’t report on the free breakfast situation because it was over by the time I stumbled out of bed. Also the rooftop terrasse was closed during my visit.
There was a whirlpool tub in my upgraded room, which was great and much enjoyed (although the jets function didn’t work), and there is free wifi (though it isn’t fast/​reliable).
There are many great restaurants and breakfast options nearby (personally I chose to go to Olive et Gourmando each day for their killer pastries), and Champ-​de-​Mars or Place d’Armes metro are about a 10 minute walk. There’s also the 55 St-​Laurent bus that takes you all the way up to the Plateau and Mile End (and beyond) at regular intervals.

My husband and I stayed here for a 4 day getaway. The location was fantastic. We were right in the center of everything in the old town. We had a lake view which gave us a great vantage point for sunsets. The rooftop bar provided a 360 degree view of the area. The room was very clean and the shower had multi shower heads. The bed was better that ours at home! So comfortable. The staff at this hotel were amazing. I had so much fun chatting with everyone. They always had time to tell you where to go, what to see, and change US currency for Canadian currency. I’ve been home for a week now and I still remember Oliver, Michael, Fred, Fred, Max and Veronica. You know they give personal attention when you get to know them like that. I had a wonderful time and highly recommend this hotel to everyone!

Was impressed with this hotel before arrival. I tweeted about making a reservation for Labour Day weekend and by the next mornng had multiple tweeted responses from the hotel thanking me for choosing them and suppling websites and suggestions of things to do during my stay. They followed up a couple of days before the trip to see if there was anything they could do (directions etc) to help make our trip easier.
Check in was quick and painless. I had reserved a queen room facing the street and was surprised at how quiet it was as I had read reviews before leaving about the noise levels from partiers outside. I go to bed fairly early most nights and wasn’t bothered by noise at all and the street was packed with tourists. The room itself was on the small side but gorgeous and had big windows that opened up for fresh air.
Breakfast is included and served at the Gasper Tavern which is connected to the hotel. There is a continental buffet as well as a hot full service menu. The fresh baked chocolate crossaints were the death of me. Nothing like having desert for breakfast!
Loved that the location is a walk from all the great restos and museums in Old Montréal. Service was friendly and efficient. Will definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for a romantic weekend getaway and I was so glad I did. The service was excellent. Special thanks to Trifon for being so accomodating. He knew that I wanted it to be a special night so he found a room that would suit my purpose. They are so hardworking and really take the time to make you feel good. The hotel is sexy and old-​world and the Tavern Gaspar beside it is quite wonderful to lounge at and becomes the place to be in the evenings. Our bed was sumptuous and the wrought iron bed frame imparts an old world feel. They only have showers but it came with multiple jets that touch every part of your body. The brunch next day was very good a filling and you just sat down at Tavern Gaspar and gave your room number and they made your breakfast to order. What a lovely concept! Definitely coming back here again, in the summer when I can stroll by the river. Yes most definitely.

We stayed here over Labor Day weekend. I don’t think you can find a better location in Montréal, it is right in the middle of Old Montréal. The room was very nice and had a great view. Overall the service was very good, but it varied from person to person.
The one disappointment was the restaurant. Breakfast was just okay. One day they ran out of danishes, and on two of the mornings, it was impossible to get my coffee refilled. The food is fine, but nothing special. They really don’t spice their dishes at all, very bland. The service varies greatly. On Sunday, we waited about a half hour for our food to arrive, and while my wife’s was hot, mine was cold. Given that the waiter asked us about our order, I think they forgot about us and wondered what that extra crêpe was doing down there.
We also had noise issues one night. Friday and Saturday was nice a quiet in our room, but Sunday we had someone in high heels pacing above us, and it sounded like we were on the terrace bar… and a party was going on. Not a good nights sleep, but I don’t know if that was just some rude guests, or if there is an issue as to how the rooms are laid out (we were in the new section).
I must point out that the mattress was amazing… but I don’t think they will let me sneak it out in our luggage… very comfortable.
It is a beautiful hotel in an excellent location. While our stay could have been better, it was certainly enjoyable. I don’t know if we’d stay here again. I’d certainly be willing to, but there are a lot of other options in Old Montréal as well.

Had a really wonderful stay here for three nights (stayed one night at Hostelerie Pierre du Calvet– AMAZING!). Prime location right in Old Montréal near the wharfs and St. Lawrence. Beautiful building… room was TINY but evoked a wonderful rustic, romantic, Old-​World feel with its exposed brick walls and wood floor. There are wonderful memories from our stay in Montréal, and the Auberge du Vieux Port is a big part of that, with its charming service and the feelings of warmth and serinity it evoked in me (which is hard to do as any one that knows me will tell you). Montréal is a magical place for me.

Stayed here a couple years back and we enjoyed it very much. A small, rustic hotel with much charm and a friendly staff. The location is perfectly situated in Old Montréal/​Vieux Port, with a beautiful view of Fleuve St. Laurent. Would definitely stay here again.
