"This massive, 1,073-room upscale chain hotel is located in Downtown Montreal, and connected to Montreal Central Station and the Underground City." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The royalty of Montréal hotels embodies grace and comfort. This was also the location of John Lennon famous “Bed-In” of 1969."
Michelin Guide "The cavernous Queen Elizabeth's convenient location above Montreal's Underground City and the railway station makes it a favorite with touring celebrities, such as John Lennon and Yoko Ono."
Star Service "The Fairmont Queen Elizabeth is perched atop the Central Station train hub and is as worthy of respect as its namesake." Full review

These latter units are worth requesting for their fresher modern decor and superior amenities, including flat-screen TVs and MP3 players.
Gayot "Besides the chic boutique getaways peppering the downtown core, this property not only offers above-par amenities, it's also considered the granddaddy of Montreal hotels."
BlackBook "1039 rooms smack in the middle of town. Ain't nothing wrong with being conventional when you're world class."
Lonely Planet "This is the crème de la crème of Montréal business hotels, with over 1000 tastefully renovated rooms and suites." Full review
National Geographic "Grande dame of Montreal old-style hotels, part of historic chain of cross-Canada railway resorts; John Lennon and Yoko Ono staged their “bed-in for peace” here in 1969." Full review

Fodor's "Celebrities emerging from limousines outside, the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Montréal next door, and a chic lobby lounge opening onto a courtyard garden... these all add to the appeal of this winning hotel." Full review
Lonely Planet "There is a deep vein of fierce competition that runs right through the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal, pitting boutique hotel against boutique hotel in a vicious battle for first place." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Literally steps from all the main attractions, yet with an inner courtyard that creates a core of tranquility at the heart of the mayhem."
Rough Guide Star
"It would be hard to find a better-placed hotel in Vieux-Montréal. The inviting boutique property sits on a cobblestone street, in the shadow of the Basilique Notre-Dame."
Star Service "This (nearly) all-suite hotel—some of the units are actually oversized guest rooms with large connected lounge areas—is tucked conveniently into the old city." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler ""You can hear the clip-clop of horses' hooves on the cobblestones" at this "quiet hotel tucked away in Old Montreal."" Full review
