I will start off with saying you can't beat the location for the price. The rooms were great with a kitchenette and a decent TV and fantastic view of Old Montreal. The only issues I had with the hotel were: One, there were dirty dishes still in the sink and a duster on the floor when we arrived in the... more

Le 1 Rene Levesque may be a little basic, but it offers brilliant value for money. The rooms are clean, comfortable and well equipped. The location is good with a choice of metro stations all just short walk away, and the downtown area of the city also accessible on foot. We would have rated this hotel as a 5, but... more

I just returned home from a 4 night trip to Montreal where I stayed at Le 1 Rene Levesque. As the title of my review says, the hotel is exactly as advertised on their website. It is a very basic, but also a very clean hotel. The room may have been small but I value cleanliness and this hotel delivered... more

I am afraid that by giving this hotel an excellent review, rates will go up! After reading all the reviews here and on another travel site, I just expected a place to crash and that's it. I didn't even think I'd get towels the way some people were talking. But no! I had everything I needed and more! My bed... more

We chose this hotel because of the positive reviews, but I was unimpressed upon arrival. The hotel is an old dormitory and they didn't do much to change the style, that's for sure. Our rooms were very clean and the view was very beautiful, but the room lacked a bureau or a carpet. The furniture is wicked cheap. The TV... more

We had a terrible time at this hotel. The hotel itself was fine but our entire room was washed with a dirty cloth (it seemed) so there was a layer of grease on EVERYTHING - including the DISHES! They were smeared with the same disgusting grease as the toilet seat. When we complained, we were told that our room would... more

I traveled to Montreal for the first time to attend a business conference – The convention hotels in typical fashion, were booking for rates of $250 and higher, so I opted for a less expensive option. The hotel is an apartment/hotel, so there are full-time residents (who appear to be college students). It is clean, has nice curb appeal, and... more

I have stayed in hundreds of hotels around the world and consider this to be one fo the worst of all time. When we arrived one elevator wasn;t working so we had to lug suitcases up 11 (ELEVEN !!) flights of stairs. The rooms were sparce, not cleaned properly (nor were they on each consecutive morning), the staff we not... more

We enjoyed everything about this hotel from the outdoor patio, 24 hour store that is attached (including beer), kitchenette, staff, room, location and price. You could not ask for a better location it is waking distance to everything you want to see and do in Montreal including Old Montreal, museums, and the best shopping and dining you could imagine!! I... more
