90%  "This hostel is a three-level building that somewhat resembles a budget hotel. The white facade, red awnings, and white/red sign all make it easy to spot, even in the middle of a blizzard. The Location The location is great, just two blocks from Rue Ste Catherine and Rene Levesque, and only 500...
90%  "Best experience - The place was very clean, just like in the pictures.Yes, the place is how it looks in the pictures it's not fake. Frederic (worker at the hostel) did a great job of cleaning and was very nice. Paul was also very friendly. Great socialising environment. It's more personal --...
88%  "If you are looking for a laid-back hostel in a big city like Montreal then Alexandrie Hostel is a good place to stay. It´s a fairly old building which looks a bit shabby from the outside and sleeps about fifty people. The Location The hostel is situated on the junction of Rue Amherst and Rue...
84%  "Auberge Maeva is an excellent place to stay, whether for a couple of nights or for longterm. It's a great place to meet people, as it's quite small with a very friendly atmosphere. The walls in the hall are covered with people's thoughts on their stay and there is not one bad report! Many people...

82%  "Lovely and clean but not very social - The hostel is very very clean, not too cramped, the terrace and yard are lovely and the staff is great. But somehow, this is not a very good hostel for meeting people. It seems like there are more families that come through the dorms than single travelers,...
83%  "There is a really friendly atmosphere in Le Gîte du Plateau Mont-Royal, this small, bohemian-style hostel. The staff are welcoming, and the place feels homey. There are all sorts of sightseeing information and suggestions scribbled on the notice boards around the reception area. Location ...
76%  "Le Sous-bois is a fair hostel if you're looking to spend little but still live in a clean place with working showers, toilets, and sinks. They give out free breakfast each morning and have a refrigerator that can be used by the guests. Breakfast often consisted of little bagels and a variety of...
71%  "What Globetrotter Hostel Montreal lacks in cleanliness and organisation it makes up for in location, price, and helpful, experienced staff. This place is good for short-term stays, even when you plan to cook for yourself. The Location Globetrotter Hostel is in a prime location. Right on the...
83%  "Best place ever! If you are looking for a good time, go to "tent city!" Party!" … "Has a good vibe - I was there for about a week. The host/hostess are there for the earlier part of the day, they're super friendly. Located in old Montreal, it's sort of quiet throughout most of the week....
70% "If you are looking for a nice place to stay that offers you conviviality, a great home sense and lots of little extras, look no more! Here's why you should plan your stay with us: 1. You cross the street and you are at Metro Jean-Talon, a central hub for the Orange and Blue subway lines....
69%  "L'Auberge Chez Jean is a hostel made up of a few rooms in an apartment building. It's a friendly, social place, and it really is more like staying in a (crowded) apartment than a hostel. The Location It's a five minute walk from the Sherbrooke subway station which will take you pretty much...
82% "The Flashpacker's Shangri-La of Old Montréal! The 'Auberge Alternative' opened it's doors in 1996 as the dream child of travellers wanting to make their lives meet their values.

65%  "Do not stay here! It really is not a deal over the other hostels in any way. I have stayed in a number of hostels and this is the second worst hostel in which I have ever stayed. The location is terrible -- the street does not feel safe. When we pulled up to the hostel there were no outside...
62%  "It's a hostel that's clean, efficient, quiet (for a hostel) and cheap. It's in a great location, has nice staff, and is open all night so you can come in late after the bars. All in all, it's a very good hostel; one of the most efficient I've stayed at." … "It was fantastic. I loved every...
"We are a micro-hostel with an eight-bed, maximum capacity. We offer positive and enriching hostelling-like exchanges, flexibility, conviviality and clean, safe, affordable accommodation. Some have described us as a very laid-back facility, offering the right mix of comfort and convenience at a...

87%  "The best thing about the Alternative Hostel of Old Montreal is the location - but that's also the worst thing about it. As the name suggests, it's located in the heart of old Montreal. Right outside the hostel is a street with a few boutique shops and several nice (but pricey) restaurants, and...
73%  "My friend and I picked this hostel blindly off the internet and were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. We had a smaller group of travelers so we didn't run into problems. Matt was helpful with navigation of the city and ran a laid back hostel. I enjoyed it and would go again." … "I...
66%  "An all around great value! - I stayed at this particular hostel during the summer of 2007. Granted all you really get is a bed and a hot shower, but isn't that what hosteling is all about? Or was all about? Going from inexpensive place to inexpensive place avoiding all the extra charges for...
56%  "Situated at the corner of Rene-Levesque and Crescent in downtown Montreal, the greatest selling point of the Women's Y Hotel is its amazing location -- less than a 5-minute walk to the bustling Rue Ste-Catherine and underground shopping malls, Bell Center, and the Metro stop (Lucien L'Allier)...

Montreal Travel Tips & Suggestions

Comment by Sarah
I'm from Montreal so I don't have any good tips about specific hostels, but I do recommend staying in the Plateau or the Quartier Latin. The areas are much more fun and atmospheric than the western parts of downtown, and there's so much to do, especially in summertime! Be sure to check out our many world-famous festivals including the Jazz Fest, the Comedy Fest, the Film Fest, and more. For scrumptious hot chocolate and sinful desserts, check out a little spot on St-Denis called Juliette et Chocolat. Oh, and be sure to visit Les Deux Pierrots in Old Montreal if you want an authentic Quebecois music night, complete with singalongs.

Montreal is such a nice city! There are tons of things to do, you'll never get bored there! Plus people are generally super nice!
Comment by Cathal,Ireland
Montreal is really cool! Really cool bars and old Montreal is really quaint. I'd recommend Montreal and Quebec City, they're much nicer than Toronto!
