"Otto, the restaurant, was an instant trend when it opened with the hotel in 2004, with seashell-studded banquettes as uncomfortable and cute as Jimmy Choos."
Fodor's
"You'd never suspect it was decade old after walking through its whooshing sliding doors: upon entry, guests see a cubic water fountain and glowing red walls throughout the lobby."

"In Montreal, this is about as close to Las Vegas as you can get without jumping on a plane, and with the latest multi-million dollar redesign repeat guests will be satisfied."

Light sleepers should request a room on a high, high floor or risk bedding down with booming bass lines till the wee hours.

"You can always count on the W to provide you with a chi-chi yet serene suite. Every imaginable amenity at the tip of your perfectly manicured pinkie."

"The royalty of Montréal hotels embodies grace and comfort. This was also the location of John Lennon famous “Bed-In” of 1969."
Michelin Guide
"The cavernous Queen Elizabeth's convenient location above Montreal's Underground City and the railway station makes it a favorite with touring celebrities, such as John Lennon and Yoko Ono."
Star Service
"The Fairmont Queen Elizabeth is perched atop the Central Station train hub and is as worthy of respect as its namesake."

These latter units are worth requesting for their fresher modern decor and superior amenities, including flat-screen TVs and MP3 players.
