This was a delightful and convenient place to stay. The hosts were generous and flexible. The room was clean and the breakfast provided (croissant with jam and tea/coffee) hit the spot.

This is a very welcoming establishment, the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. The property is situated in a lovely neighbourhood close to subway stations, Mont Royal and St Catherine Street are within easy walking distance (20 minutes).

This B&B might be utilitarian but it's got alot going for it - it's very conveniently located on the Plateau and affordably priced.

Very comfortable stay
The place is basic, with a small room and shared bathroom and shower, but the bed was extremely comfortable and the neighborhood very quiet. And it is in the heart of one of Montreal’s best areas. Hard to beat for the price.

The staff is really friendly and helpful, the hotel is well located but you should know that the bathroom and toilet are on the landing and the sheets had the smell of the perfume of the person who passed before and some hair on the mattress

Charming and outdated
My boyfriend and I chose this place because of the location. I had read previous reviews about there being no breakfast, which was weird, but at least it didn't surprise me. Carole, our host, was warm and helpful. The place was charming and in need of a little TLC, but it didn't really bother us. It was a great deal. Some minor changes like ripping out the ancient, grimy carpeting and removing a little bit of the clutter would make this place a gem. But I would still go back. It was kind of like staying with a special aunt rather than an anonymous hotel, and I enjoyed it.

Since it was my first trip to Montreal I absolutely enjoyed the city. Area was great and safe, very friendly people. Hotel was very clean and quiet, my room was clean and comfortable, pleasant hotel owner and price was great. I truly enjoyed my stay and would recommend it to my friends. I had no issues only pleasant memories.

This is a traditional place, the hosts are a genuinely friendly couple who are more than happy to give information about Montréal or just simply have a chat. Breakfast is not offered but there are kitchen facilities and tea and coffee is available. There are plenty of nearby places to get breakfast. Rooms very quiet. Do not come here if you want all frills lodgings but this establishment is clean and homely. Plenty of hot water for showers.

Good price for the basics.
The hotel is old and tired. However, i paid for a bed, a shower, and a good location and that is what I got. I would stay there again. Tons of neat restaurants nearby, lots of great bakeries, lots of bars. The host is a very nice lady.

Adorable B&B in an ideal area of MTL
Wonderful experience at Bienvenue Bed & Breakfast! Carole was very nice, the room was clean, and we were literally walking distance from everywhere (metro stop 4 min away if you're not a fan of walking!) Breakfast was not included as we had initially believed, but there is a farmers market next to the Mont-Royal Metro Stop and a kitchen perfect for making omelettes/toast/whatever you're feeling for the day.

Bed and Breakfast without any breakfast
This hotel is not a bed and breakfast at all as no breakfast is available. When I asked about breakfast at the front desk, I was told there are numerous cafes that offer breakfast in the area, but none at the hotel. The room was clean and all right although it was old and had some noticeable areas that needed repair. It was an okay place, but I don't think I would stay there again.

Convenient location, friendly hosts
Unfortunately, the accommodations were just one step up from the experiences I had in my European hosteling days (the step up would be the private bathroom, for some of the rooms). We were in a room with a bed large enough for two people and a private bathroom, but not much else. The mattress was as firm as a board and must have been encased in waterproof material as every time I woke in the night the part of my body laying on the mattress was sweaty and clammy. My husband and I both started the morning with stiff backs and necks. Usually when we stay at a B&B they are charmingly decorated with quality (but not necessarily high-end) bathroom fixtures and furnishings that are comfortable to use. Bienvenue was decorated and outfitted more like a hostel, with economy bathroom fixtures, carpeting and kitchenette furniture you'd expect to see in a budget student apartment rental; not especially comfortable and grimy in the corners and inside the shower handles. The parking was a source of consternation, as we did have to deal with the on-street parking regulations and went out of our way to not drive anywhere in the city so we wouldn't have to search for a new parking space later; the streets are pretty crowded with cars. The redeeming features of Bienvenue was the location and the very warm, friendly hosts who were truly interested in making sure we enjoy the city.

Great Location, Food, Nightlife, Transportation
Located in the middle of the Platteau Mont Royal neighborhood, a vibrant gentrified area with a mix of young people, families, and older couples. Many restaurants and nightclubs within walking distance. Transportation is easy, the Orange line is within 13 min walk. Parking is tight on the street, once you find a parking space you just leave the car there. The B&B gives you a $5 voucher for breakfast at a local Boulangrie. That usually covers coffee and a croussant. It took only 30 minutes to get from the B&B to Old Montreal via the subway. We bought an all day pass for $10 on the subway and had a great time walkiong around visiting the various historical sites and museums. We also took a cruise along the waterfront, I would only recommend that if it is good weather and you can stay on deck the whole time like the day we went. Food is reasonably priced but many restraunts do not sell wine or beer. You have to run over to a grocery or liquor store to buy a bottle of wine to have with dinner. The waiter will happily uncork the bottle and put it in ice for you with out a corkage fee.

Clean, safe & quiet hotel
Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. There was a mini kitchen for our use but no breakfast. We received daily $5 certificates for local cafes. Our mattress was somewhat uncomfortable, the shower tiny. The WiFi was strong, tv was good. 15 minute walk to nearest metro station. Older building, just an inexpensive (but safe & clean) minimal place to sleep.

It's a corner row house in a residential street. The parking is on the street with lots of regulations. Their credit card machine charges extra 4% on top of your credit card for the billing in the U.S. dollar. I didn't see that until I got back home. Very disappointing in the latter part.

Happy
We arrived at about 8 pm. We were greeted and given information about local eateries within walking distance which we appreciated. Breakfast was not served on site but we were given vouchers to two charming coffee shops. Both of our mornings were lovely. Madam made sure our parking was in a safe free space. The place is old but clean. Actually the age added charm. We wanted to experience Old Montreal and this B&B was perfect. I would stay again!
