I loved this hotel! It is a small scale George V (Four Seasons Paris) in Old Montreal. It is everything you expect if you are accustomed to 5-star hotels. GREETING. I was professionally and warmly greeted by all hotel staff. Door man, Concierge and Front Desk. ATMOSPHERE. This hotel is in an old converted/restored bank building. The finishes and feel... More

My best friend and I had the opportunity to stay at this Iconic Hotel last weekend for a quick weekend getaway. Words are just not enough to describe the wonderful time we had there: from the perfect doorman's greeting, the smooth check-in with escort to the amazing-one-of-a-kind room, the absolute cleanliness throughout the property, the great dining room, the beautiful...

I selected the Le St James on the recommendation of a close friend from Montreal. I was not disappointed in the least. I stayed for four days and wish I could have extended on a recent business trip to Montreal, The Le St-James is a magnificent hotel that brings old world charm and service in a beautiful setting.

Nothing but class, they do everything with 5 star service. Oustanding restaurant, XO, the rooms are large spacious and the bathrooms do miss a detail. The spa is very cool, very private and has great services. Not the place for a guys/girls weekend away, go with someone special, because the experience is nothing but 5 stars.

We frequently visit Montreal Canada from our Quechee VT home. Had never stayed at the St. James. It's a real discovery. Luxury. Historic, beautifully restored mid-19th century Merchants' Bank building is ideally situated in vibrant Old Montréal with easy access to shopping areas, the river and the financial centre. Each guest room or suite possesses its own character and personal... More

Arriving on a snowy, icy day having flown in from Toronto, our bags were left on the pavement while trying to locate someone to help and the steep steps up to the front door were perilously uncleared.
