Gorgeous hotel
Pros:

Absolutely perfect. Low key luxury, great service. You could not want for more. The rooms are gorgeous. Beautiful linens, coffee pod machine, lovely amenities, plenty of space including a balcony (in our booked room). This was honestly just a gorgeous place to call home in Christchurch. Plus the food is incredible at the restaurant. We had breakfasts and dinner there and it was exceptional. One of the best breakfasts I have ever had (eggs Benedict with salmon). And the gym is awesome as well. Just a well thought out, considered hotel. Beautiful. We will be back every time we have to stay in Christchurch.

As always it is a nice place to stay and we can take our pet.
Pros:

The bread with breakfast could be better. The seafood soup is not at all nice - it too greasy and lacks seafood.

Cons:

See above

Reliable and Pleasant Experience
Pros:

I had another very pleasant stay at Hotel Montreal and, as with my previous visits, the experience was consistently excellent. I stayed in a Junior Suite for two nights while attending a family occasion, and despite arriving very late at around 2am, the check‑in process was smooth and welcoming.

The team is always friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful, which is one of the main reasons I keep returning. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with all the amenities needed for a short stay. Everything was exactly as I’ve come to expect from Hotel Montreal — reliable and hassle‑free.

The booking process was also very easy, making the whole experience seamless from start to finish. I consistently have very good stays here and would happily recommend this hotel to all types of travelers, whether visiting for business, leisure, or family occasions.

Unremarkable stay at the Hotel Montreal
Pros:

We stayed two nights at the Hotel Montreal. The location is great — an easy walk to the fabulous botanic gardens, to the park, to the Riverside Market food mart and the downtown shops. Our room was spacious and comfortable, though pretty standard when it came to furnishings and amenities. The fitness center was average. E-Bikes are available to guests, which is a nice amenity, but they are stored in the fitness center. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we had no problems or complaints. Overall, the hotel is fine, though nothing special, and I think a bit pricey relative to the overall quality of the experience.

Pros:

Nice location - 10 minutes walk to central Christchurch. Evening meal good.

Cons:

Entrance and welcome underwhelming - more like the entrance to a backpackers than a 4 star hotel. Totally ignored by staff at breakfast . Not approached or offered anything. Buffet offerings very average.
Blasting a spray cleanser next to our table while eating was pretty unprofessional.

Good hotel
Pros:

A good hotel in a very good location on the outskirts of Christchurch. A warm welcome, good clean room. Good parking facilities. Only problem was the restaurant closes at 21:00 as does the bar. We had to get a meal via room service but this was good when it arrived to the room.
