Hotel Details

Location

In the heart of downtown Montreal, a 2-minute walk from Lucien-L'Allier Metro Station and within 5 minutes of the bars and restaurants on Sainte-Catherine and Crescent Streets.
The hostel is steps from the orange metro line, placing guests within easy walking distance of Concordia University, McGill University, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the 14-km Lachine Canal path. The 747 bus from Montréal-Trudeau Airport stops at René-Lévesque / Bishop, a 5-minute walk away, with the journey taking 30-40 minutes. Old Montreal, with its historic landmarks and nightlife, is a 15-minute walk or a short metro ride. The area is safe and central, though the Lucien-L'Allier metro station involves many stairs. Nearby attractions include Mount Royal (accessible via a free hostel walking tour) and the RESO underground city, a 10-minute walk away, offering a network of shops and eateries sheltered from winter weather.

Accommodation

Private and shared rooms are available, all with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning. Dorms range from 4 to 10 beds and private rooms include double or family setups.
Shared rooms (4, 6, or 10 beds) include linen, towels, individual lockers (locks for rent), and access to electric outlets. The 4-bed option is the most spacious and quiet, while 10-bed dorms are tighter with only one shower/toilet per room, which can lead to waits. Bunk beds in some dorm configurations can be creaky or wobbly, and lack under-bed storage, so luggage may take up floor space. For better comfort, private rooms are recommended: the double room has a TV, and the family room (a double bed plus a single bed) also includes a TV. Ventilation and temperature control can be inconsistent, with some rooms having no openable windows and central air conditioning that cannot be individually adjusted. Overall, rooms are functional and clean, but the property is more basic than photos suggest. No rooms have balconies.

Dining

A free continental breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 11 AM. The on-site café transforms into a bar in the evening, serving local beers and a selection of snacks.
Breakfast includes fresh bagels, bread, fruits, cereals, oatmeal, spreads (cream cheese, peanut butter, jam, butter), coffee, tea, and plant milks. Gluten-free bread is available on request. The breakfast setup is self-service from the kitchen; guests wash their own dishes after. During peak times (around 8-9 AM), the dining area can be crowded with limited seating. The café/bar offers a full bar with local beers on tap, a snack menu, and a projector for live sports. A dedicated restaurant on site (Restaurant #1) serves American-style cuisine for breakfast and dinner in a family-friendly setting. Nearby, dozens of restaurants on Sainte-Catherine and Crescent Streets are a 2-5-minute walk.

Wellness and Leisure

The hostel organizes a wide range of free daily activities, including pub crawls, walking tours, and themed dinners, all designed to help guests explore the city and socialize.
Leisure options are heavily focused on social and cultural experiences rather than on-site wellness facilities. Free daily activities include walking tours (Mount Royal, Old Montreal, the Lachine Canal to Atwater Market), pub crawls to local craft breweries, karaoke nights, live sports broadcasts on a projector, and themed dinner nights. A pool table and board games are available in the common lounge. Onsite, there is a terrace and a picnic area. For independent exploration, the RESO underground city (10 minutes' walk) and the Montreal Botanical Garden are easily accessible. There is no spa, swimming pool, or gym on the property.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, a fully equipped guest kitchen, coworking spaces, and a 24-hour front desk are available. Laundry and local beer are offered for a fee.
The hostel provides fast, free Wi-Fi throughout. The guest kitchen is fully equipped with all utensils, and basic cooking essentials (oil, salt, pepper) are supplied. Lockers (locks for rent) are in every room, and a free luggage storage room is available for early arrivals and after check-out. A paid laundry service (washer and dryer) is on site, along with an iron and steamer. The 24-hour front desk can help with parcel deliveries and provides concierge services. Security features include 24-hour CCTV, key card access, and smoke alarms. A business centre with fax/photocopying is available for a fee. There is no elevator, which may be a consideration for guests with heavy luggage. Outdoor bicycle storage is available, though it is not indoor.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book a private room or a smaller dorm (4- or 6-bed) to avoid the cramped space and limited bathroom access common in the 10-bed dorms.

  • 02

    Request a room away from the road and on a higher floor if noise affects your sleep, as internal noise from corridors and basic soundproofing can be an issue.

  • 03

    Plan to use the free luggage storage if arriving before 4 PM check-in or after 11 AM check-out, as early/late room access is not guaranteed.

  • 04

    Bring your own lock for the in-room lockers, as locks are available to rent for an additional cost.
