Great location and rooms. You do hear everything though through the walls.
Reviews / Ratings for Fairmont Le Reine Elizabeth
I have already shared bits of our experience in person and summarizing few things here. I appreciate your time for reading and hopefully acting on these. Upon arrival, the valet at the hotel entrance was not at all helpful and didn't show any interest in accepting our luggage or the car for parking. He asked us to self-park in level S1 even though self-parking isn't allowed. The check in was indifferent transactional process and not a welcoming one, which would be a basic hospitality rule, one would expect. You can't put a finger on it, but it didn't feel particularly welcoming. The housekeeping requests were slow and in one instance absolutely rude or unacceptable. I have shared the experience in person, so I won't repeat here. In general, the experience felt like a 3 star hotel and not what it claims to be. On the bright side, the parking attendants on S1 were very courteous. I am Accor member, but I have not added my number to the booking. Thanks
I was a bit disappointed with the Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth, as it didn’t quite deliver the “wow” factor I was expecting — that je ne sais quoi. The lobby felt more like a café space rather than having the grand hotel atmosphere I anticipated. The rooms and en-suite were also quite tight and reminded me of London hotel rooms where space is limited. On the positive side, I enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and sauna facilities. The staff were excellent throughout our stay — friendly and helpful. Overall, I think it’s more a business hotel and you’re mainly paying for the brand name and the location.
Slightly disappointed with the room. Felt like it hadn't been used for a while. Windows were not clean, bed was slightly dusty, bathroom needed a good clean and bar/snacks had empty spaces so I had to let them know on check out I hadn't taken anything. Wouldnt rush back...however the cocktails in the bar were awesome!!!.
Be aware of kiosks or bar inside room, those you have to pay from pocket which is not written anywhere, you have to pay during checkout as it’s not complementary.
Great stay — all staff were very helpful, but I’d especially like to thank the porter Dominique, who was super helpful not only to me but to everyone around him too. Great energy, and thanks for your help!
Worst Fairmont I’ve been in My room shower was broken and didn’t get fixed until day 2 Each elevator ride takes 10 minutes to go up and down The front desk gave me wrong info about breakfast timing so I ended up having to wait 45 minutes for the kitchen to set up brunch service before I could it Bad experience overall
My experience at Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth in Montreal was truly exceptional from start to finish. I stayed at the hotel for more than a month during a long business trip, and it genuinely felt more like a home than a hotel. This was actually my second extended stay at the property. I previously stayed for 2 weeks and received outstanding service, which is why I chose to book the hotel again for my next trip. Every single department consistently delivered top-class hospitality and professionalism. The front desk staff were always welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The housekeeping team maintained my room at an impeccable standard of cleanliness throughout my entire stay. The valet parking staff treated me like family and always made me feel valued and comfortable. A special mention also goes to the in-room dining and restaurant teams. They consistently accommodated my requests, provided excellent recommendations, and delivered exceptional service every time. The quality of the food was absolutely top class, and every meal I ordered was fresh, delicious, and professionally presented. The overall atmosphere and vibe of the hotel is simply incredible. The moment you walk into the building, you immediately feel luxury, comfort, and warmth. The ambiance truly hits differently and makes the entire experience unforgettable. Every dollar spent here is completely worth it. The level of care, professionalism, hospitality, cleanliness, and overall guest experience is second to none. I highly recommend Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth to anyone visiting Montreal, whether for business or leisure. I look forward to staying here again in the future.
Very disappointing,1st night elevator broke down, receptionist said its happens oftem better not get room on higher floor. Housekeeping never replace the bottle of shampoo, shower gel and conditioner bottles, they just refill it (unhygienic) . Tv remotes are not cleaned. I stayed 4 days, 3 days no single housekeeping came to my room for clean up . I specifically had to alert housekeeping. If traveling solo Receptionist will charge you deposit for per night even though you prepaid in advance, but if you are couple no deposit of a single penny. At the time of checkout when you want your deposit back, staff says deposit is from third party without confirming in the system. Very horrible experience.
Perfect location. We were traveling by train so this was very convenient. Love the decor. It has a modern 70s theme with gold and blues. Nice more patterns and lines. The chairs and the furniture are all new but match the aesthetic. Bedrooms were very comfortable. Nice beds and comfortable bedding. Lots of space with chairs and a desk. Bright and modern bathroom with nice toiletries. I love that they provide cotton swabs with the toiletries. Great view from our room of the cathedral. Walking distance to everything but great coffee sho, cocktail lounge in the hotel as well as shops in the tunnels for the train. Friendly staff. Loved this location.
Excellent service from every single staff member we interacted with. Hotel is spacious and quick to get in and out of in a very convenient location. Rooms are nice and the bed is comfortable. We brought our dog and one staff member even brought him freshly baked dog cookies! If booking with Amex Hotel Collection you get a very generous breakfast allowance for their full breakfast and your credit is in USD.
This hotel is exquisite. It's worth visiting if you're staying in Montreal's beautiful downtown.
Excellent location, friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms
Literally one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in (and I’ve stayed in many hotels), the service is incredible.
Lobby is magnificent and the location is well located. We asked for amenities to service royal but unfortunately had to call 3 times for the same basic request. Employee on the phone told us they have a new system since few months and sometimes request doesn’t go to the staff due to device issue. We got apologies from the gentlemen who brought our toothbrush and mouthwash after more 30 minutes waiting. We feel that attention to details and service wasn’t taking seriously for a supposed luxury hotel. Guest request shouldn’t impact at this level when a new system is implemented.
Just stopped in to visit some memories. Just had a drink k and moved on.
Positive: - WLAN was working well. - They put a fridge in the room after asking for it. Negatives: - I had a room with 2 rooms. Heating was not working in the first one (but at least in the sleeping room). The next day, I asked if they could fix it. They said they will try and come back to me if it does not work. They never came back to me, and it continued not to work till the end of my stay. - Lightning in the room is suboptimal. If you have a suite, you would hope that you have adequate lighting at the desk. Funny thing, there is a very good ceiling light at the entrance. - I asked for a late checkout (2 hours) very early on the day of departure (and the day before, but they told me to ask on the next day). After the service desk asked the supervisor, I was told it wasn't possible because too many people were coming in. I checked online and I was able to book 3 rooms of the same(!) category and all sorts of other rooms. I also asked what they could offer, but they couldn't offer 30 minutes.
Always a good place to spend time if you’re in Montreal. Central, easy access to downtown and Old Montreal.
Everything costs extra
I like this hotel very much. Great gym. Comfortable rooms, excellent location. The personnel is the best. High quality service.
Beautiful hotel, we went to the Nacarat lounge , fancy drinks, cool vibe , friendly host and great servers
The location is perfect.
This hotel is the only place I stay in Montreal. It is well located, the rooms are spotlessly clean, well decorated with comfortable beds. It also allows pets!
This is a busy Fairmont well located above the Montreal train station and we.walked directly from our train to the hotel. We.were given a wonderful room overlooking the.church next door. The lobby area has restaurants a coffee bar.and a.lounge. There are numerous eating options nearby including Ruebens a well know place to.have the smoked meat Montreal is famous for. The.staff here was wonderful and very attentive to our needs.
Attended a conference. Services enjoyed were the catering, bar service and all were very good for large scale groups. Try the Nacarat bar on site for great drinks and atmosphere.
