Does any one know if the hotel across from the Consulate in Montreal has suites or adjoining room? (A door between the two rooms) If not, has anyone stayed at a suite in the area that would have a sleeper sofa in it. We have a 15 year old that is going with us and I know she doesn't want to stay in the same room. Come to think of it, we don't want to stay in the same room with her either.

Why not place a blanket and pillow in the bathtub for her and close the door
Sorry it was just a thought, Seriously, I can't help you I didn't use any of the hotels there, I got to Montreal at 5 am and left right after the interview.

Here is a link for La Tour Centreville (the hotel right across from the consulate) looks like their large suites have a sofa bed, (as well as an extra bed if you are ok with squishing two of you onto a single bed), but I bet it costs an arm and a leg.

this is a description I found for their large suite... it is $113 dollars a night at hotels.com

One queen or two twin beds. 550 square feet. Separate bedroom and large living room/dining area. Light oak furniture includes round dining table and four chairs, chests and mirrors, coffee table, and desk. Living area has upholstered sofa and chair, table lamps, and wall sconces. The kitchen has a window, microwave, dishes, cutlery, and cookware for four. Extra place settings are available on request. Bathroom has a combination shower/tub.

i wouldn't reserve a room directly from the hotel site though....places like travelocity.com or hotels.com might have better deals...

LOL thanks for catching that... leave it to me to offer to post a link then completely forget the point of the post before hitting "add reply."

Well it feels really good to actually be able to plan and do something positive. We booked our hotel there in one of the large suites. It will work out great. As a note for anyone who has an interview in September. Most of September is already booked at La Tour Centre Ville. Not sure why but most of the month is blocked off.

Wiz

I know it's all booked ..... we tried to get in and nada. We're staying at an Econolodge instead.
And why exactly don't you want the 15 year old with you??????????????????????????? You pervy you....
L.

Even though this is the Canada forum...I am refusing to answer that question on the grounds that my response may incriminate me.

Wiz

Like you didn't already do that

Aw c'mon guys, he's just being a gentleman and making sure the 15 year old is comfortable and has a nice big bed to himself, nothing wrong with that

Do you have nothing better to do then scare me to death????

I just read all this and was able to book a room for Sept 11 on Expedia, phewwwwwwwww

nasty nasty mean man

Just wanted everyone to get it done early. Didn't know if it was something going on in Montreal or just that hotel. Slightly demented at times but not evil.

I just wanted to mention that the hotel is not a 4 or 5 star hotel... but it was comfortable.... and close to the consulate

and there was a Timmy's close by (out the front of the hotel and to the left about a block or two on the right hand side) and also a grocery store (if you go out the front of the hotel turn right and go about a block and turn left)

Well Wiz thank you, now I have it, thanks to you

Marilyn, I was reading the reviews on Expedia, it'll be fine for one night, I probably won't sleep anyway.
I asked Lance for directions to the Timmie's..lol, I have them saved and ready to print. My interview is at 8:15, so I either won't sleep, or I won't have enough time to go.

I knew they are doing what anyone else would do, the right thing. I'm glad everything is turning out for you and you got a suite. Enjoy the trip to Montreal
