Hotel is nice, and the location is excellent. However the breakfast is not good. The coffee is watery and you get 1 small pastry and a small bottle of juice, nothing else. If you want an actual breakfast, around the corner there is a nice cafe with really good coffee and lots of good stuff. read more

Hôtel Bonaparte - Lamb chop and ratatouille - Hotels Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I stayed at the Hotel Bonaparte on my last day of a short trip to Quebec in April 2024. It would normally have been a bit too expensive for me, but I lucked into a decent price. I'd stayed in Old Montreal about eight years ago, and I wanted to return, even though I wouldn't have time to wander. While more quaint on the outside, the interior is very chic, and the rooms very modern. The lobby is smaller than I normally see in hotels. I was made welcome and asked to sit down at the desk, then asked if I'd like some champagne. I was pleased with the modern room and the large shower in the bathroom. Sadly, as with most hotel bathrooms, there is never enough counter space for all my "lady stuff". The room included a mini fridge and a coffee maker. I don't stay in a hotel if there isn't a coffee maker, since I dislike having to go out for my first cup of the day. (You certainly wouldn't want to SEE me if I did!) The windows open, which I seldom find in a hotel, and the view was very nice. Breakfast is delivered to your door in a little basket that attaches to a hook in the outer hallway. It was fine, but heavy on the carbs, with sugary juice, a croissant, sugary yogurt, a very sugary madeleine, and sugary jam. There might have been something else, but I cannot recall. I would return to this hotel. read more

A beautiful and cozy boutique hotel. We were greeted and offered a glass of Prosecco to enjoy while seating in the lobby as they check us in. The restaurant onsite offers amazing French cuisine. We really enjoyed this place! read more

Hotel Bonaparte is a decent hotel in a great location. We arrived from the airport pretty early so our room wasn't ready yet but they took my number and called just a couple of hours later letting us know the room was ready early. The bed was comfortable, though a little small (felt very European) and the bathroom was nice. A few complaints - it was noisy! It's not their fault but there was lots of construction going on on the same street and at night we had drunk people yelling and revving car engines on the street just below us. Also we could not figure out how to lower the thermostat or increase the air flow. The windows opened which was nice but due to the aforementioned sound, we left them shut. Our stay also included breakfast but we checked out too early to take advantage of it so instead they packed up breakfast for us and delivered it at 5am which was so nice! read more

I was spoiled! My fiancé m'a payé une fin-de-semaine en amoureux à l'Hotel! We had a wonderful time. A beautiful, big room with a king size bed, a window overlooking the Pointe-A-Callières museum, a waterfall shower big enough for two! Et que dire des soupers, "Josephine" et "Napoléon"... un bonheur gustative! Only the breakfasts were "ordinary", because of public health restrictions, a bag is delivered to your room.. but excellent lattes! Si vous cherchez un endroit romantique pour un "staycation", près de tous les beaux sites du Vieux-Montréal, try l"Hotel Bonaparte". Encourage local businesses! read more

This is a lovely old world French hotel. High ceilings, exposed brick, gleaming hardwood floors. HUGE windows. Comfy beds & linens. The bathroom is generous with both a soaking tub and shower. Two sinks, one outside the bathroom-nice extra. It is very quite while being centrally located. About a 8-15 minute walk to McGill Street. Viex Port, Viex Montreal, Place d'Armes, Notre-Dame Basilica, Montreal Science Centre and more. The staff is friendly and helpful. A full breakfast is included-you chose 3 courses off a menu including-fresh fruit juice, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, fresh fruit salad (great & freshly made with mango, pineapple, grapes, apples, etc), yogurt (would have been MUCH better if poured out of the carton), fresh bread, muffins and croissants (but of course!). The main dish was crepes, French toast, eggs with sausage and bacon or a choice of several omelets. Everything was very nice. Dinner is served here as well and looks delicious (too fancy for our kid sadly plus we wanted to explore outside the hotel but definitely a convenient option). The photos online are exactly what you get-good to know. Parking is off site (a block & a half away on the same street in an open lot. Looks a bit sketchy but we have not had any issues during our stays () We have stayed at Hotel Bonaparte several times and it is THE ONLY place we will stay in Montreal. read more

I highly recommend Hotel Bonaparte at 447 rue St Francois-Xavier for a stay in Old Montreal! I just spent a few days there with a friend, and we were delighted with it! The room was big and comfy and had a view of the top of Notre-Dame Basilica. The beds were perfect - I like a firm mattress and soft pillows and they scored high with both! The temperature of the room was perfect (it was the 2nd week in Oct so it was starting to cool off outside) and the bathroom had the most fabulous, deep tub just made for soaking. It also had a separate shower if you just wanted to jump in and rinse off from a day of walking around. I think my favorite part was breakfast - they hang a basket outside your door at 7:00 AM that contains a fresh pastry, jam, butter, a fruit bar and juice for each hotel guest. I got spoiled very quickly and have been trying to convince my husband to prepare similar baskets for me in the morning but so far it's been a no-go! Make a reservation early in the day for the hotel's restaurant - it books up quickly. We had dinner there twice and were charmed with the food, the spirits and the wait staff. It was truly a treat! And parking was quite close - a parking lot at the end of the block. But the best part of all were the lovely young women working at the reception desk. They were so helpful in recommending places to go and how to get there. We even had to call them once because we got stuck at a boutique about 5 miles away. We tried to call for a cab but because our French is weak, we were unable to request one and give our location, or state where we wanted to go (the hotel). I called the hotel desk for help and a wonderful woman managed to arrange for a cab to come collect us and bring us back to Hotel Bonaparte. She went above and beyond the call of duty! We should mention the lovely lobby, too. It has a wall of rectangular shaped mirrors of different sizes - very clever and great for reflecting the crystal chandeliers which my friend coveted. The neighborhood is great, too. We felt very safe wandering, even at night. And just around the corner on Rue St Paul there is a place called Tommy's that has the best omelets ever! And those wonderful bagels that Montreal is famous for. Further down the street were so many places of interest - wonderful gift shops with lots of local artists' works available. We bought the cleverest handbags and jewelry, beautiful cards and tote bags featuring lovely local artwork for gifts to give back home. We will return to Hotel Bonaparte and happily give it our highest ratings! Enjoy your stay - especially those breakfast baskets and that soaking tub! read more

Thanks for all of the reviews that helped us choose this fantastic hotel. The staff is fantastic including Luke, the Golden Key Hotel Concierge. His advice and knowledge of the city made this visit spectacular The location of the hotel is perfect, walking distance to everything in Old Montreal. The room is perfect and we definitely recommend requesting a room that faces the courtyard. Breakfast is free and fantastic, particularly the coffee and Canadian maple syrup on crepes. Definitely explore old port in the evening and see the movies playing on the buildings. How great is this hotel ? We are returning in three days. That says it all. read more

Hôtel Bonaparte - Delightful breakfast in the gorgeous hotel - Hotels Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

We had the 6 course tasting menu. A true culinary experience. read more

Just arrived and unpacked, so review based on the last hour. I just screwed up an Expedia reservation for two days starting tonight. I came into the small but tasteful lobby and waited for the attendant. I smiled, gave him my name, and told him that I had a reservation with Hotwire. He checked his computer and said he couldn't find it: had I used another name? No, I just made it an hour ago. He continued to look. I went back to my car (no valet, by the way, but a well lit lot very close by) and got my phone, pulled up the email, and showed the attendant. He politely told me that my confirm was from Expedia, and maybe that was why he couldn't find it. Oh: that and it wasn't until tomorrow. I apologized and was contrite. He found a room for two days for me, all good. I paid for the extra day, got the papers signed, and parked my car. Came back to my wife sitting in the hotel lobby with a glass of champagne. I slipped the attendant a tenner for his help. We got the second glass and went to our premium kit room. 15 minutes later, now a knock on the doors. It was the attendant: he had Expedia changing the reservation on the call. Worked out well Front, street side room. Cobbled roads as streets. Loud even from the four floor, By midnight the noise abates (bring earplugs anyway) and lovely silence. read more

I cannot stress enough how much I loved this hotel! Do I start with the glass of champagne at check in or the beautifully appointed room with the heavenly firm bed? On top of all that a delicious free breakfast with delightful service. If that isn't enough it's in Old Town so the setting is also perfect! A must stay in Montreal! read more

Best hotel ever. From ambience to staff to continental breakfast and location- all top shelf. A little nervous about managing in French? This hotel smoothes away that fear with experienced and kind assistance. Rooms are well designed, clean and cozy after a cold day in the old city. The views inside and out are museum worthy. Continental breakfast included with your room is like none other. Delicious. Extensive and elegant in its presentation. Can't wait to return and share with friends. read more

A lovely hotel, well situated in old Montreal. Rooms were spacious with comfortable furniture (including a great bed). The only downside was the shower pressure was not strong, it worked but I have had better. Breakfast is included in the price, and there is a good selection of options.
