Hôtel Gouverneur Place Dupuis

It’s at a centralized location right by the metro and it’s relatively clean; relative to the seedy drifters who frequent the area and hassle you for money in alcoholically accented French (but that’s to be expected in a densely populated area). My main complaint is that the hotel is not well maintained. The wallpaper is scruffed up and the tile in the bathroom is occasionally dirty (see picture). But i did have a You’re living on the wild side. But i myself enjoy Saturday mornings doing laundry and cleaning my apartment view (see picture 2). Overall, if l could, I’d give it 2.5.

This is the first time in this hotel. It is definitely a 3 star hotel. We reserved 1 bed which is suppose to be king but we got a queen bed instead. Our bed skirt was dirty when we walked in. The parking is very limited space and very tight with the spot. But for the price it’s good enough.

GReat Place to Be In Canada, Awesome Customer Service, Clean Rooms and Friendly Satff.
Good Location and Awesome Prices, That’s My New Spot in Canada

On a 15 hour layover I decided to stay in old Montréal. I made the reservations through Hotwire and by the time I arrived at the hotel they had not yet checked for any new reservations. On top of that the room was terrible, there was no view and the toilet ran all night and the faucet dripped. When I called to ask if I might be able to change rooms I was informed that I would have to pay an upgrade fee as there were no similar rooms available. The hotel also smelled extremely musty. And since leaving I have realized there had to be mild in the hotel and that is my only environmental allergy and I have not been able to breath through my nose since an hour after I checked into the hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Hotel is in a great area if you want to be close to bars, restaurants and clubs. With that comes the homeless and addicts you would expect in a busy downtown area. With that said, I was happy with the hotel itself. Good customer service, clean rooms and facilities. It’s somewhat out dated but expected for the price. I can’t speak for the food as I never ate there. All in all I’m definitely satisfied. I paid for the upgraded room on the higher floors and gotta say it was worth it. Great view from the park side

Disappointing. The gym is awful. The buffet is disgusting. No HDTV and the furniture must be 30 years old. Good WiFi. The doors in the lobby are very frustrating. Never again. Way too much for the amenities.

We got this place for $ 80/​night through Hotwire, which was a steal considering what it costs through the hotel directly.
I know a lot of reviews mentioned that it was a subpar hotel. However, I found that it lived up to it’s 3-​star rating since our room was nicely furnished, bright and clean.
We didn’t talk very much to the hotel staff as we were always out, but the cleaning staff was thorough with making the beds, providing clean linens and towels.
However, the reception desk was a little standoff-​ish but they weren’t rude.
The beauty of this hotel was that it was nice and clean, had free Wifi which worked great for our floor (11), and linked to an underground system. The underground was convenient because it contained an IGA, pharmacy, cafeteria, and a warmer route to Berri-​UQAM metro. This was very much appreciated because holy moly it was –40 outside when we went!
I would definitely stay here again if I got it for the same price solely because of where it’s located. Berri-​UQAM is an interchangeable station so you can access 2 lines from it. Moreover, it’s close to China Town, Old Montréal, and a quick metro ride to St. Laurent or Eaton Centre.
My only complaint is that they don’t have a mini-​fridge.

Wow… comfortable beds but everything is in bad need of a restoration. The only modern thing there was the keurig machine. I do like the reliable free WiFi so extra star for that. Do take the chance to marvel at the front lobby door function in the winter. Good location though right next to Berri-​UQAM station.

My 16 year old son and myself decided to do a road trip. So from Toronto we left at 6:30 pm arrived in jersey city at 5:00 am. slep fo 6 hours then spent the day in NYC. Then off we went to our reserved room in montreal! Drove for 6 hours, arrived in montreal at 12:15 am at our hotel. I then found out I booked for the following night. Needless to say I almost cried because it had been a very long day. Well 2 long days. I asked if I could switch my booking. They had rooms available. They said no they wouldn’t then told me I could have a room for the full price if I choose. So standing there at midnight with my 16 year old son, they told me they couldn’t help with my situation unless I paid full price for the room. Now I totally get the fact that I made a really embarrassing stupid mistake… but really.
So no room for my son and I. So obviously I was a day ahead of myself, somehow!
I felt like a big disappointment to my son, we were so tired and I didn’t have a room for us. So to the Gouveneur Place Dupuis Montréal I have nothing good to say. They let me a very petite 43 year old woman and her 16 year old son with no room in a big city we were very unfamiliar with (never mind the language barrier) they could have helped us out. They didn’t. So I didn’t see montreal at all because I then drive 4 hours to ottawa. I checked a couple hotels on my way out of montreal but they were booked. I can’t see myself recommending that hotel to anyone. Bad experience. My actual check in was August 13.

2 PEOPLE ONE CUP. I would like to say the numbers in this place don’t add up. We booked a room for 2, had pillows for 3 and only one cup to share. Now, my husband puts his tongue places I can’t write about but on my cup isn’t one of them. In the future I would like this hotel too respect peoples hygiene and supply drinking cups for all.
My husband and I have since split up so I have given this place 4 stars. Thanks for pointing my life in a different direction.

thanks to hotwire… got this place for an affordable price… very close to downtown… very very close to the berri uqam metro station… easy access to saint dennis and st catherine… which has good restaurants as well…
Nothing fancy about the place… perfect for tourists who wanna be out all day and get back to the hotel…
there is a pool and a 24hr workout area… it has one restaurant and NO ROOM SERVICE…
Parking is available for 19.50 a day…

Location trumps minor disappointments.
Request a waterview upper floor. We had a great view during summer’s International FireWorks Festival.
I found the rooms a bit dated but very clean, well organized and the iron/​ironing board is great. The queen size bed was fine for two big guys. The towels a bit skimpy and scratchy.
The Concierge is not well informed. They were clueless about Cirque du Soleil’ latest show «Kurios» (30 years based in Montréal) and completely off about Schwartz’s. I asked for a smoked fish and bagel recommendation and Schwartzs serves only smoked meats and rye bread (whcih were good).
The included cpontintental breakfast or the upgraded full breakfast are both great deals.
However, all is forgiven for the amazing location at entrance to The Village, walking distance to waterfront and nearby Centreville.
Good wifi service. I will be back.

Overall :
Solid hotel, good location, great breakfast, decent price. Nice, salt-​water pool! A lot of other reviews of this place confuse me. It seems like they are describing a different hotel.
Room :
We had a king size bed business class room (free upgrade from what we booked). The room was a good size, two comfortable chairs, nice TV, strong wifi signal. Smallish shower, but not ludicrously so. Pretty nice — amazing view over the city
Cleanliness :
I am a clean freak. I hate staying in hotels and I strip the bed everywhere I go to look for bed bugs. The highest compliment I can give is that I generally had no complaints. The furniture was clean (and bug free) the bathrooms were clean, even the pool area was decent.
Location :
Right on the line between the Gay Village and Quartier des Spectacles, walking distance to several bars, and directly above the crossing of the orange and green (M1, M2) subway lines. Can’t get any better than that! We always had places within walkable distance, we didn’t have to go outside to get to the subway if we wanted to go further away, and we walked out the front door to see a free CIRCUS happening in the park across the street. Great location.
Service :
Friendly staff, very helpful. Cleaning crew was in and out quickly every day, concierge was super helpful, and the staff was always smiling when they greeted us. The two guys watching the pool clearly didn’t care, but otherwise pretty great.
Breakfast :
Not technically a hotel only service, but included with our room, it was much better than any included hotel breakfast I’ve ever had. Lots of fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, decently good baked goods, several types of cereal, and actually good coffee. Worth mentioning because it made the stay just a little bit nicer, and gave us a nice kickstart to every morning.
Price :
After all the taxes, our room ended up being about $ 250 a night, which was a little more than we expected, but not terrible. Considering it was booked on 3 days notice, right in the middle of Warped Tour weekend, the Circus festival, and the Montréal Jazz Festival it wasn’t a bad price. With the breakfast and great service, it didn’t feel expensive.
Other :
A few other reviews mentioned the homeless people in the area. Yes. Get over it. There are a ton of parks around, Montréal is a BIG city, and homeless people are a reality. Nobody was aggressive or crazy towards us, mostly they left us alone. Even if they didn’t, what the heck do you expect a hotel to do about the fact that homeless people exist in their city? Get real.

Stayed in hotel on 4^th of July weekend. Great location! The Best one in a city! 2 min walk to Metro Berri station. Close walk to St. Denis and St. Catherine restaurants and bars, 20 – 30 min walk from Viuex Montréal. Room was clean and bed was very comfortable. Highly recommended for your trip to Montréal.
Read a lot of bad reviews but didnt see anything wrong with the place. It would be better to have a special discount for garage, pool working 24 hrs, full breakfast instead of continental .but anyway Hotel is good and location is the most convinient.

I have stayed in many hotels, but none quite like this one. They advertise that they are a four star hotel, that you have a safety deposit box and that there is an in room refrigerator. None of those things are correct. The safety deposit box was not even in the room and we were told that it was about the size of the a letter. No refrigerator and it was a dirty room, both of them — that’s right, we had to switch rooms, why? Because the first one had bugs. The second room had mustard like stains all over the window drapes and there was what looked like a shit stain on the wall. The carpet had gum stains on it and it was just disgusting to walk on. I had to wear socks the entirety of the trip. Pluses were that we were not given a problem when having to switch rooms, and that the beds were decently comfortable.

Good things about the hotel: the view of our room was great, the location wasn’t bad, about 20min walking from old town, the staff was helpful.
Bad things: rooms are old and in need renovation, there are homeless people everywhere close to the hotel, room had no fridge. We parked in another parking lot, because our truck didn’t fit in the parking lot next to the hotel, and we actually paid way less ($ 9/​night).

Motel quality Hotel
DO NOT STAY HERE AT ANY COST/​PRICE
Hotwired for $ 79 (blind booking) and was terribly disappointed when I found out Hotwire rated as 3 ½ star while every other site had it as a three star for $ 70…I actually chose hotwire because I realized that this hotel was the $ 70 offering from priceline and did not want to stay here especially with it being outside downtown core
Hotwire lied and said this hotel was in core of downtown which it is not
The staff was friendly but the rooms were horrible in desperate need of a renovation and had a permanent musty smell to it. Bathrooms were horrible. I was disgusted.
Area is suspect, I mean I do not mind seeing beggars, crackheads and prostitutes outside at night as I am a grown man who can handle himself but this is not something for families or couples.
Apparently this part of the Latin Quarter is considered the Gay Village or the gay part of downtown which may or may not be a plus.
This hotel is like a two star and I suggest if EVER blind booking on any site to spend the extra $ 25-​$ 30 and get a REAL 4 star

Pricelined for 70 $/​night for this neighborhood we were stoked– but the reviews worried us…
Especially since we were traveling with older parents who maybe were not going to be comfortable if it was shabby or unsafe.
It was neither. It was clean, comfortable, well staffed and in a GREAT location.
We spent 3 days there enjoying the amenities and would go back.
Granted– we would NOT have been stoked if we were paying 125 $/​night. It is more of a 2 star than a three star hotel. However:
The linens were decent.
The water was Very hot and lots of it.
There was a functioning ice machine.
The whole thing was accessible by tunnels to the Metro and shopping.
We found the downstairs waiting area very useful.
Cons:
The door locks were problematic. That was Very Uncool.
They fixed it. Ok. there.

The gouverneur hotel. With it’s gleaming symbol of female ovaries as their logo, shining bright red symbolizing the fertile and life giving nature of Montréal.
Located on the corner of the latin district and the gayyy district (the village) this hotel is a great cheap alternative to other locations near Saint Catherine street.
It has an indoor pool, a sauna, and just an overall good setup for the price.
Pros:
Clean
Attentive staff
Centrally located to all the good stuff, underground shops, transit, liquor, beer, clubs, adult entertainment, bank to exchange money.
Cons:
Have to fill out a room sheet marking any scuffs/​marks/​broken things, list your amount of towels.
Towels are like gold, I had to haggle in the lobby to get two more.
Fridges are 20 dollars a night, even for medication. And they only have so many they claim.
No breakfast.
SemiConsThatProbablyShouldBeMentioned:
Can’t walk barefoot anywhere, even down the hall to the pool. Sure, some of you think this would be gross anyway, but I mean come on its Montréal! SON!
No matter your age, you can’t be in the hallway with an alcoholic beverage. Even in a red cup, or going across the hall to another room. Some of you may think this is a silly point but I mean come on its Montréal! SON!
I also didn’t get laid here. So that’s a con. A con of my life.

plusieures occasion d hebergement dans cet hotel. Personnel affable, proximite pour sorties etc.
Crtaines chambres plus vieillottes (salles de bain) Pas de quoi s ennuyer au centre ville…

It’s always good to be back in the great city of Montréal, and when I am, I will only stay at this awesome hotel! Hotel Des Gouverneur is located in the most perfect location — halfway between the always happening Village and the never ending nightlife of downtown. Situated on the corner ofSte. Catherine est and rue St. Hubert, anything you could need is in a 3 minute walking distant radius (Metro, newsstand, cafes, bank, SAQ, everything!) In fact, the hotel is connected to entire complex (Place Depuis) — you don’t even have to go outside.
I first started coming to this hotel a few years ago for New Year’s Eve partying and have a great experience each and every time I stay here. Now it is a tradition to stay here not only on New Year’s Eve, but throughout the year for Jazz Fest., Juste Pour Rire, fête des neiges, Monreal comic-​con, and of course the August summer bash: Fierte Montréal. No matter what time of year it is, this hotel consistently delivers on all levels! Aside from the perfect location, one of the main draws that I first fell in love with is this hotel’s views (downtown view). You can NOT get better views of this great city in any other hotel in Montréal (see pics taken from my suite –30^th floor).
The staff here is exceptionally hospitable and accommodating. They will speak French first; however will politely switch to English to accommodate their Anglophone guests. The concierge desk can be a great help as well. They have gotten me last minute hard to score reservations on few occasions and they will never have you waiting for a taxi. Lino the manager I would like to specifically mention as he is a true professional and a first class act. During my last visit, one of my friends lost his jacket (containing his wallet!) and Lino had a team of staff search for it until it eventually showed up in one of the lounge areas. Wow man thanks again for that Lino. that could have been a bad trip for sure!
The business and suite floors are nicely decorated and are very clean. The bed in my suite was a California King that could have easily and comfortably slept four people across. Also, business floors can only be accessed with a key card, which is a nice feature, especially during New Year’s Eve when pandemonium ensues. Even so, never felt unsafe as the hotel hires a security team for NYE. Business rooms come with business center access which offers complementary snacks, water, juice and newspapers. There are also a few computers in there in case you forget your laptop (rooms come with free WiFi). Each night of your stay comes with a breakfast voucher for a nice European-​style buffet.
Hotel Des Gouverneur is an outstanding four-​star hotel worthy a stay, but make sure you request a high floor with a downtown view and you will surely not be disappointed!!!
