Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
The Hotel Nelligan is named for Émile Nelligan, one of Quebec’s most celebrated poets, and his face and quotations adorn the interiors of the hotel. It’s a detail that stops well short of outright gimmickry, but it contributes to the sense of history that is thick in the halls of this 1850 building.
It’s a boutique hotel, to be sure, but the interiors are far from the art-gallery sparseness that is the prevailing boutique design trend. Instead the Nelligan is heavy on function, with creature comforts ahead of aesthetic shock, and rich brick, leather and wood decor rather than white plaster or anything Zen. It’s easy on the eye, to be sure, but impossibly plush duvets and Frette bathrobes target the subtler senses. Gas fireplaces, spacious bathrooms, and the obligatory high-speed internet round out the package of conveniences, and as a bonus, many rooms have private terraces overlooking the St. Lawrence.
The Old Montréal location is convenient, and picturesque; it’s a historic district, full of landmarks and preserved buildings, yet also home to the city’s financial district and any number of shops, cafés, and restaurants. Verses, the hotel’s French restaurant, is highly rated, and usually buzzing with activity—and the rooftop terrace (in summer) and the atrium bar (in colder months) are perfect for a little relaxation with a drink, a book of verse, or quite possibly both.
How to get there:
Hotel Nelligan is located 20.7km (30 minutes) from Montreal Trudeau Airport.

What I liked:
Front desk was very polite, helpful and knowledgeable - no matter who you spoke to.
What the hotel could do better:
The bar/restaurant closed very early, so if one wanted a nightcap, or even a cup of tea, there were only 2 choices: 1) go outside the hotel to a different venue; 2) go to the very noisy bar that was associated with the hotel.
If this is the case, then at least there should have been the ability to make tea/coffee in the room.

What I liked:
The service was very good--concierge and desk staff were very knowledgeable, the rooms were beautiful and the locations was terrific
What the hotel could do better:
The bar and room service close far too early. On Saturday evening we arrived back at the hotel at 11:30 to have a drink only to be told the bar was closed. There were still guests in the restaurant so obviously someone was still around. On Friday night we arrived back at the hotel later and wanted tea and there was also no possibility of that. The young man at the esk was kind enough to get us some hot water and luckily we had our own tea bags. Coffee/tea making in the room would be nice.
