Small Hotel with Nice Rooms in a Vibrant Area
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this property. It's a small hotel with generously-sized rooms--at least my room was quite generously sized. Conveniently located near lots of restaurants and within easy walking distance of major attractions in most directions. The lobby area is quite small and the presence of staff minimal, but when I did interact with them they were extremely helpful, particularly in terms of getting my checked in efficiently and making great recommendations for excellent places to eat.

There are better options
Keep searching. There are better hotels in the area. The location of this hotel is pretty great; just a block away from the busiest metro station and right on a bustling street with lots of restaurants. Stay here if that’s literally all that matters to you. But you can find better options if you’re willing to walk a couple blocks. The room itself feels quite dated. The flimsy particleboard furniture was showing its age, the room had an odd smell, and the air conditioner (which we only ran to try to get rid of the smell) felt like it was on us last legs. In general, the room looked far worse than shown in the photos and didn’t feel very comfortable to be in. I know expectations are different for independent hotels in major cities like Montreal, but this one felt subpar even by those standards.

We found the hotel building inside and out very charming. Albert was very welcoming, helpful, friendly and shared about the neighborhood, city, and restaurants. His enthusiasm really made our stay memorable. The location of the hotel was very convenient to walking to the Old City and to other places. The music outside was sometimes loud until very late at night. We'll return!

My stay at Le Relais Lyonnais was amazing!! The hotel’s prime location in Montreal’s Quartier Latin meant there were tons of restaurants close by and a quick walk to the Metro to get around the city. The in/out parking privileges were easy and convenient, the attentiveness to keeping the room clean was incredible, and hospitality services made me feel welcome and right at home. It was a great place to stay during the Just for Laughs festival. Can’t wait to return!

I can’t say enough good things about this property, my wife and I loved it! The owner, Albert, greeted us when we arrived, and was super friendly, knowledgeable, and suggested places nearby to visit. Before we arrived, he contacted us via text and gave us directions for parking, which was nearby, secure, and covered. The hotel is in a wonderful location with lots of restaurants and some shops very nearby and in walking distance. You’re only about a 15 minute walk from downtown or a 20 minute walk from old Port. There is lots of fun activities going on in the streets when we visited in July. We loved our stay in this property and would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat. Much thanks to Albert for a wonderful stay!

I stayed at Le Relais Lyonnais by myself, in March 2023. It's a old house in a "transitional" neighborhood that leans slightly toward "hipster" area--but not quite. You're in a university district, so there are lots of cafes around (a plus for me!). There's not a lot of activity in the day or the evening--but keep in mind that I was there mid-winter. The hotel itself is "okay;" it's very basic, just a room to stay in with a bathroom. It's not terrible, and it's not great. But it was pretty reasonably priced. There are issues to keep in mind: The rooms and overall building are a bit grungy. You must climb narrow, steep steps to access the front door, and to get to the upper floors. I like a hotel with at least one public space where you can go to be around people, but there's nothing like that here. The front desk has limited hours, so you tell them your arrival time. Just remember, it's basic and minimalist, so think about your needs.

A charming property! We had 24 hours in Montreal after a weeklong vacation in Mexico, and booked Le Relais Lyonnais for its proximity to excellent dining and entertainment options. The room was comfy and clean and the hotel has such personality, but the star of the show is Albert at the reception desk. He touched base before we arrived via text to confirm our arrival time, and was helpful, knowledgeable, and personable throughout our stay. My new favourite place to stay in Montreal! 10/10, will return.
