During my stay at Hotel Chez Swann, I appreciated the downtown location, which made exploring Montreal easy. The decor was artistic and eclectic, lending a unique charm to the hotel. However, the breakfast options left much to be desired, and I encountered some issues with room amenities that affected my overall experience.

I had a mixed experience at Hotel Chez Swann. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of downtown, which made exploring the city easy. However, I faced some issues with the room and amenities that were disappointing, such as the shower pressure and the overall maintenance of the room. Despite the friendly staff, I expected better considering the price. Overall, I enjoyed my stay but with some reservations. 😊

While my room was very clean, I found it small and not well maintained. The shower pressure was subpar, and there were some cleanliness issues like hairs on the linens. Overall, not worth the cost.

The breakfast was a letdown. It felt more like an afterthought with limited options like pastries and tea but nothing substantial. I expected a better spread given the hotel's reputation.

Facilities

Amenities included complimentary water and a coffee machine, but I wished there were more extensive services available. No room service and the early breakfast setup could be greatly improved.

I had a nice stay at Hotel Chez Swann in downtown Montreal. The chic atmosphere and really good cleanliness truly stood out, though there were some minor drawbacks like the limited breakfast options and a few maintenance issues in the room. Overall, it's a stylish alternative to traditional business hotels.

My stay at Hotel Chez Swann had its highs and lows. The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore downtown Montreal on foot. However, I encountered some issues with room maintenance and the breakfast options could use an upgrade. Overall, while the staff were friendly and helpful, the experience fell short of my expectations for a four-star hotel.
