Great location, clean, quiet and safe
A great location, quiet, clean and safe for walking. It's a simple place but exactly what I need. It would have been nice to have a coffee machine in the room, but the coffee downstairs in the cafe was excellent. This is a good location for access to downtown, Mont Royal and other neighbourhoods. I walked everywhere - Old Montreal, the port, Rue St. Denis. I only wish that there were no people smoking as you walk down the streets.

Beautiful exterior to the building, inside was nice but definitely old. The room I stayed in was very clean and had no issues! There’s no elevator, so if you have big suitcases, or have mobility challenges be ready for lots of stairs. The staff were friendly and helpful. My bathroom was separate from my room, which I don’t think is the case for all rooms but it wasn’t an issue and was clean. One huge plus is how quiet the room was, I couldn’t hear any traffic or any other room noise. The area is safe and very walkable and is close to public transit.

Meh. More like a hostel than a hotel. Room was large and bed was fine, not enough towels and creaky toilet and no one at staff till you call. The person "on call" came and fixed the toilet and gave us more towels. We would not stay here again, though its fine for students and younger folks.

Nice older 3 storey walk up near Mount Royal. A bit hostel-like and very self-serve. Nice room with pretty windows onto the street. Nice little cafe on the main floor opens at 8:00 am. I would have liked access to a kettle and cups to make coffee or tea in our room earlier.

We were misinformed that parking on the curb directly opposite was free. We were fined $90 CAD and will refuse to pay. The entry way was dirty with dirty cups overflowing and lots of trash on sidewalk. Floors and rugs inside were not swept. The manager was rude (yelling) to my wife when she complained about parking ticket. The young staff were reasonably courteous--the only redeeming feature of our stay.

Hotel Ambrose is ideally located if your interested in visiting downtown Montreal. We were in town for the Canadians home opener. The Bell Center is in easy walking distance from the hotel as are many other attractions and restaurants. We found the staff to be helpful , check in was a breeze. The room was clean and bright and the bed was very comfortable. There are only 2 negatives: parking could be a bit of a challenge and there are no elevators and the hotel has many stairs. We would certainly recommend this hotel.

Nice atmosphere. Close from everything. Students run the facility. Rooms and furniture are outdated but serve the purpose. Overall, you get what you paid for and it was best price in this area.
