I've only stayed at Westin hotels a handful of times, but because I booked very last minute, the Hyatt (and everything else in my price range) was sold out.\n\nI echo the previous reviewer's sentiment about the valet/parking situation.  No one was there when I drove up, and I wasn't sure where to park, so I tried to self park underground which was like navigating through a rabbit hole. It was unfinished and I was actually a little nervous down there!  No one should be allowed in that parking garage!  A valet finally came and I checked in with no problem.  I was even put on the Starwood Preferred Guest floor.  Bonus!  The hotel is also offering free wifi for all guests through the end of August.    \n\nLe Westin Montr\u00e9al opened just three months ago and you can tell it's still very new.  There was no alarm clock in my room, which I noticed when I tried listening to my podcasts.  There was no honour bar in my room, no pen and paper, and no TV channel guide.  Not deal breakers by any means, but just little things I'm used to seeing in a hotel.  To their credit, when I asked for each of those things, they kindly responded almost immediately.  \n\nThe room itself was very comfortable with a nice sitting area and a flat plasma TV.  The Starwood Heavenly bed was truly heavenly -- I literally had to force myself to get up -- and the bathroom was very nice.  It was a stand-up shower only, but it was huge and featured the Starwood Heavenly Faucet.  Meh.  The bath products were Westin-branded, but white tea flavoured, which rocks!  \n\nI decided to check out the Reporter Lounge my first night there.  It was a Friday around 10pm and there was literally no one there.  Not a single soul.  It was a lovely night in the city, so it's possible everyone was dining al fresco, but I found it odd.  There was certainly nothing wrong with the bar, including the bartender who was super pretty and super nice, so go down and have a drink if you stay there!\n\nThe concierge, Marianne, was very helpful, especially with dinner reservations.  The pool area was awesome -- it's a glass bottomed pool that overlooks the entrance to the hotel, which was super fun!  Very Disneyland \""20,000 Leagues Under the Sea\"".  \n\nI ordered room service for breakfast. When I called down, she told me she'd have to call me back and I fully expected *not* to hear back from anyone. Lo and behold, she called me back about three minutes later!  The food came quickly (less than 30 minutes) and was super hot, which made me tr\u00e9s happy!  The only thing they left out was sugar for my coffee, which considering I was having blueberry pancakes with Qu\u00e9bec maple syrup, I probably didn't need it anyway!\n\nOverall, Le Westin Montr\u00e9al was a very nice hotel in a fantastic location near Vieux Port, swanky and modern, and with a very friendly staff.  Recommended if you're traveling to Montr\u00e9al.
