Why we recommend it
Auberge du Vieux-Port faces the Old Port on rue de la Commune Est in Old Montreal. It occupies a nineteenth-century building, and its 45 rooms combine the original stone or brick walls with contemporary design, according to Montreal's official tourism office. Two meeting rooms make it a possible choice for small business groups as well as leisure travellers. With 45 rooms, it is far more intimate than the large downtown hotels such as Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth, which has around a thousand.
The views are the main attraction. The hotel's Terrasse sur l'Auberge looks out across the Old Port and the St Lawrence, and it is a pleasant place for a drink on a summer evening, whether or not you are staying. On the ground floor, Taverne Gaspar serves comforting gastropub dishes with a Quebec touch, and the hotel offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, along with a bar, so you can eat in on a cold evening without going back outside.
Rooms come with air conditioning, internet access, a television and a small refrigerator. There is a business centre, luggage storage, storage space for equipment and paid indoor parking, which is a real advantage in Old Montreal, as well as an electric vehicle charging station.
It suits couples, families and history lovers who want to wake up by the river and walk to the main sights. Rooms with exposed stone or brick walls give the place its character, so ask for one when you book if that matters to you. Prices sit in the mid to upper range for the old town.
The location is hard to beat for a first visit. The Old Port promenade is just outside, and the rest of Old Montreal, including Notre-Dame Basilica and Pointe-à-Callière, is easy to explore on foot. In winter, the public skating rink on the Old Port's Bonsecours Basin makes an easy evening outing.
The hotel lists its address as 97 rue de la Commune Est. For bookings, use the hotel's website, where room types and current offers are set out. Confirm parking when you book if you are driving, since the indoor car park is paid.
