Auberge Alternative, hotel in Montreal

Featuring free Wi-Fi, Auberge Alternative is a hostel located in Old Montréal.

The proximity to old Montreal was great! The restrooms and other public facilities were cleaned daily and did not feel dirty at all. I stayed in one of the larger more public rooms during my stay and found it comfortable and safe. The staff were also amazing and were able to answer and accommodate all of my concerns!

Le 402, hotel in Montreal

Featuring a shared lounge, Le 402 is located in Montreal in the Quebec region, a 8-minute walk from Clock Tower Beach and 400 yards from Place Jacques Cartier.

Nothing. I checked in late and was not able to stay for a single night, booked two rooms but got information only about 1 and ended up in one small room with 1 bed for 5 people. Nobody available to respond and forced to find another emergency accommodation. No refund provided for the extremely stressful experience.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The hostel is in a great location, close to many restaurants and bars, at the same time it was not noisy from the outside. The room was nice and clean.

    The hostel is well-located, close to the subway station and restaurants, just a 10-minute walk away. The room and bathroom are bright, clean, and comfortable. In addition, you have enough space to store your personal items. Highly recommended for those traveling on a budget, it's the best hostel to choose.

    Great location, clean and safe hostel. I stayed in a dorm and it was comfortable and quiet. Since it is right smack in downtown Montreal, I would recommend it for a stay close to all public transportation. The breakfast was also very good.

    The hotel was a great deal for anyone looking to travel on a budget and be close to downtown and the best highlights of Montreal. It was my first time staying in a hostel abroad and it allayed my fears. I stayed in an all-female room of 12 and it was super safe and clean all the time. The jacuzzi on the roof is amazing and the staff were friendly and multi-lingual. I even extended my stay one extra day. I would 100% recommend this place to friends, solo travellers and especially female solo travellers.

    I'm from Ukraine and I spent about 2 weeks there. It was the cheapest and best hostel with an amazing breakfast every morning. This place is really nice, clean, and so comfortable. The staff was also very nice and helpful. Thank you to everyone for everything. I liked it so much!!"

    Great location, very nice and competent staff, newly built hotel so spacey room with washrooms and social corner, plus large common areas to work / cook / eat / relax. Each bunk bed as 2 electric plugs, a light, under the bed locker, storage around the bed, and curtains to sleep nicely. Plus the WiFi is really good! Close to a lot of things in Downtown Montreal. So far the best Hostel in that city, especially at that price!
