Top hotels in Southwest
Griffintown Hotel
"The concierge, parking and accomodations were all great. I would say, expect it to be more like a BNB with concierge though. You will not have someone cleaning the room, emptying trash, and there are no building amenities like a pool, lobby, lounge etc."

Hotel Universel Montreal
"The hotel is a little bit dated. Location was good for our purpose, with free parking. But I would not recommend this location if you want to go to the old port every day. Restaurant is ok, I was surprised the restaurant was closed for the Canada vs Morocco game."
