I accompanied my husband on a business trip and this was the hotel his company picked for him. The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the view was fabulous! Looking out of the window every night at the city was one of my favorite parts of the trip. There are plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance so we never even used the subway, but you can access it from the hotel. Also, they offer free wireless high-speed internet which you can log into on a daily basis, and a free newspaper every morning!

Just returned today. We had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Marriott Chateau Champlain. Very friendly staff, clean comfortable rooms, and excellent service. Serously. Amazing view from the rooms! We were able to book a day trip to Quebec City through hte concierge. It also has easy acces to the underground Metro system from the hotel lobby.
I did not rate the amenities my family and I did not use, such as the pool and the fitness center, but I gave the restaurant a fair rating because it was good but awfully expensive for a family of 6 (breakfast only), and they couldn't get any of the eggs cooked to our specification - we ordered hard fried but despite it being hard fried, the yokes were still very runny. But there are lots of other places to eat so that was not a problem at all.
Valet was $24 a day, regardless of how many hours in the day you actually use it. Will most definitely stay here agian though.
Fabulous experience

The hotel was fabulous. The location is excellent. About two minutes from Rue St Catherine which is one of the two main roads in Montreal where all of the shopping, restaurants and lots of night life is. Sherbourne Avenue which is another main street in Montreal is about two streets north of St Catherine and therefore is also very easily accessible from the hotel. Also just downstairs and pretty much attached to the hotel is a Metro station which makes getting to any part of the city so easy.
Not only was the location great, but the employees at the hotel were wonderful. They took the time to show us exactly on the map where every point of interest was that we wanted to go to and also explained how far each one was and how long it would take to get there by Metro. They also showed us on the Metro map exactly which Metro to take and where to get off.
We did not eat in the hotel but there are plenty of great restaruants close to the hotel to eat. Also on Rue St Catherine, two minutes away, there are a so many wonderful restaurants.
The room was also very large, comfortable and extremely clean. Every night we came back to the room it had obviously been well cleaned and always smelled so nice.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience staying at this hotel and I would definitely stay there again
Wonderful!!

Stayed here because it was an "official" hotel for a convention I was attending. Booking a package via an online travel website vs booking through convention's housing authority and booking flight separately saved me over $300.00!!
Staff was very friendly, helpful, and professional. Having the subway access directly under the hotel was VERY convenient. We took the subway everywhere from Mont Royal, to Olympic Parc, to Old Montreal via the Plais de Congres stop.
Loved the way the room were set-up in relationship to the elevators. No floor had more than 12 rooms per floor and the elevator was centrally located.
Internet access was free and the signal was EXCELLENT!!! Wireless hubs were in each corner of the floor...four bars and excellent speed.
Room was very nice. Bed was very comfortable. The room had these lovely floor to ceiling curved windows that gave us a beautiful view of a park with lovely old churches on both sides, and Mont Royal in the background. Bathroom had this neat dressing area that ccould be closed off using one of the doors of the closet.
Starbucks in the lobby, but there was a local coffee shop around the corner. Breakfast in the restaurant was your standard buffet, but the wait staff was very friendly and eager to serve. Host/Hostesses were very professional, even for a simple buffet breakfast.
Easy walking distance to two big shopping centers. Highly recommend a restaurant called the The Keg which is two blocks away...sounds like a dive, but it was actually a high scale steakhouse. I highly recommend the spinich salad with goat cheese and raspberry vinigarette dressing if given a choice, and steaks were EXCELLENT.
Beautiful hotel

Loved the staff, all very eager to help make our stay enjoyable. Beautiful lobby. Hotel room was elegant and very clean. Location was perfect. All we wanted to see was walkable and the underground transit was easy to use to get out to places too far to walk. Parking under the hotel, never needed to see the car again until we left for home.
