I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the management and staff of Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth. My stay at your hotel was truly pleasant, comfortable, and memorable. The high quality of service, the cleanliness of the rooms, and the professionalism of your staff clearly reflect the excellent standards of your establishment.

I would especially like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr. Axel at the front desk. His warm welcome, courtesy, professionalism, and attention to detail made a significant positive impact on my experience. His helpful guidance and responsible approach ensured that I felt comfortable and genuinely welcomed from the very first moment of my arrival.

Without hesitation, I will gladly choose your hotel again in the future and recommend it to others.

The hotel lobby's leisure area is incredibly spacious and grand. Each seating area is quiet and relaxing, perfect for unwinding while listening to soothing music.
31.03.2026 Guest
Great location and well-equipped facilities, it exceeded my expectations.
08.03.2026 Dy
This hotel is an exceptional choice and a must-stay destination in Montreal. The staff are exceptionally attentive and proactive, consistently ensuring that every need is met in the Gold Lounge—offering to prepare drinks and provide food without my having to request assistance. The room itself was impeccably clean and modern, earning a perfect 10/10 rating.
20.02.2026 Rania
A few days before our stay I came in person because we were not sure yet if we would be able to keep the same dates and I simply wanted to know what the options were in case we needed to move them. That is when I spoke with Pascal at the front desk. He was extremely respectful clear and genuinely helpful and gave me the information in a very professional way.

Later on when we called we were given completely different information by the supervisor Katie which is where the confusion started because the two versions had nothing to do with each other.

We had already packed to come spend Valentine’s night at the hotel so when we showed up at the desk our only intention was to calmly understand the situation since we were already there for our stay. We were obviously not asking for anything at that point just a simple clarification.

Unfortunately from the beginning Katie went straight on the defensive became visibly nervous raised the tone and kept repeating that she felt attacked. Every time we tried to speak she would say we were interrupting while she continued the same prepared speech without actually listening to what we were saying. It did not feel like a conversation at all but more like she had decided the outcome and there was no space for any real exchange.

She then ended the discussion on her own instead of allowing a calm and respectful dialogue.

Right after that she went to the back and started sending messages through another employee to the person who was serving us asking him to come see her immediately after finishing with us which created a very uncomfortable and tense atmosphere at the front desk for no reason.

What makes this even more disappointing is that incorrect information was later shared with Expedia about the reason for our concern which had nothing to do with any charge or refund request.

The hotel itself is beautiful and every other staff member we interacted with was kind professional and exactly what you would expect from a place like this which is why this situation stands out so much.

The concierge gold check in experience was absolutely incredible. Every single staff member that we've encountered were so kind and helpful. Our incredible room was clean and spacious. Valet staff were so kind and helpful. Cleaners were so kind and thoughtful. Fairmont staff also left us a sweet dessert to help us celebrate our 10th Valentine's Day anniversary. Everyone at Fairmont Queen Elizabeth has truly gone above and beyond to ensure that we had the most incredible time and we are absolutely grateful to everyone here.

One-night stay, small but nice room! Beautiful view. Very uncomfortable pillow.
19.01.2026 Christina
My multi-day stay here was great!

The hospitality, cleanliness, and location is phenomenal. I especially enjoyed the pool and sauna facilities. The representative at the fitness/pool center desk, Yal, went above and beyond. When I realized that robes should have been placed in our room and we couldn’t get any from the sauna, he brought some down for us. Exceptional service.

The parking situation is less than ideal, but there are many nearby lots for affordable rates.

The location is great, the food is delicious and the scenery is beautiful, the spa is nice, the swimming pool is also great, and ordering takeout is very convenient.

I would recommend the cafe and restaurant on the first floor. The underground passage leads directly to McGill/Eaton.

The hotel was clean and hygienic, but rather old.

A very small sushi shop that doesn't attract a lot of attention, but is definitely worth a try! The food is really good and the service is nice. I recommend it.

The place is beautiful! It's in the right location, the waitstaff was pleasant but the food I ordered so dry and tasteless, I barely ate it. Instead, the bread and the toppings filled me up and the fries. It seems like hamburger was precooked and then reheated.
23.12.2017 Lil
Went with a large group and the staff was really accommodating and quick! Not many vegetarian options though during lunch. The big salad was ok, nothing special. Flammkuchen was great! Can be very crowded, but good atmosphere overall.
16.12.2017 Roberto
Very good place to dinner or just drink a beer. Well located, close to the subway and the central train station.
The steak with fries is a great choice (steak, fries and salad) or the chicken breast with smashed potatoes and carrots.
26.10.2017 Gordon
Was having a good time catching up with a friend until we saw a mouse crawling on the floor and then under our table. Finished our drinks quickly and left. Sat by the Rue McGill windows. Hopefully the mous doesn’t go to the kitchen often.
18.10.2017 Ian
I always think I'm going to like this place more than I do. The beer is okay, it's not the greatest, but it's acceptable. The food is pretty standard pub food, the prices are more or less reasonable, and the services is usually pretty good. For whatever reason it just doesn't all come together though.
