Fabulous! Would stay again.

Lovely stay at the Mount Royal! As is typical of European hotels - the room was small and the bathroom got wet when you showered - but we loved the location and found it quiet despite being right downtown.

Confortable hotel

The hotel was fine and confortable but you can see the room is a bit dated therefore I found the hotel a bit expensive for what it is. The breakfast was totally correct but not amazing. I would stay again for the location only which is ideal!

Great hotel.

Myself, my daughter and granddaughter had a two night stay at the Mount Royal and could not fault it. The room was large and airy and the beds were comfortable. I am vegetarian and the choices for breakfast were more than adequate and in pleasant surroundings. Would definitely come back.
