I had my interview on June 12th. I came to Montreal from Toronto the day before via train and stayed the Hotel Travelodge, about 10 minute easy walk to the Consulate and 15-ish to the Central Station. Decent hotel if you're there for a short visit; rooms are very small, but that was fine as I was alone and only stayed one night.
I arrived at the consulate at around 7:45 for my 8:30 interview, where there were 2 others ahead of me. I handed my passport and appointment letter (I just printed the email confirmation) to the girl at front who placed a sticker on my passport and handed me back the letter along with a laminate sheet stating your number and how to organize your documents. I was then taken through security -- as others have said, it's kind of like airport security where you have to put your things in a bin and walk through a metal detector. I was then told to go to the elevator to the 19th floor where the waiting began.
When I heard my number cal... read complete review

Hi everyone,
My interview was on May 21st, 2019. Reading these reviews was so helpful to me so I thought I’d write about my experience. To be honest, I really enjoyed my morning there. I read about the first come, first served policy on this forum, and planned to be early. My appointment was at 8:00am but I arrived at around 7:00am. I had my 1 year old infant with me. I ended up being 1st. I made a friend in line, this sweet woman who was making my baby laugh. I had read on here that you should chat with the others just to have the time go by faster and to ease your mind of worry, and that’s exactly what it did! I felt barely stressed at all after laughing and conversing with my new friend. I brought the bare minimum to the Embassy. My paperwork in a folder, diapers & change pad for baby, and a little bag of Cheerios for her. All in a reusable grocery bag. I had to bring my cellphone since I took an Uber to the Embassy, but they didn’t mind storing it for m... read complete review

Montreal Consulate interview a breeze like everyone has stated. Almost a waste of time, just like the medical. A formality at best. Best part is enjoying Montreal for a few days before heading to Quebec City. To anyone worried about it, unless you have a history issue, just have your docs and there is nothing to be concerned about. Arrived at 7:00 a.m for 7:30 interview and was #6 in line. Out of Consulate by 8:50 a.m. stayed at Travelodge which was a straight easy walk of less than 10 minutes. Rooms are very small but nice hotel with continental breakfast included. If you drive plan to park your car and never use it. Walk everywhere if you can. A lot of construction and very congested streets. Close hotel worth the extra you may have to pay to be close to Consulate.

I stayed at the Courtyard by Marriot, which is about a 2-minute walk from the Montreal Consulate (very accommodating, great service there, rooms are very clean but on the pricey side).
The consulate is a bit hard to spot due to construction going on at the time of this review (the entrance is on a side road around the corner from the SNC-Lavalin building). At this time, petitioners are not allowed in with you and they will have to wait outside the building, so be aware of that.
I was really anxious about the interview, so my fiance and I left the hotel as soon as I was ready and arrived about an hour and 15 minutes before my 7:30am interview time. We ended up being first in line. We chatted with a few of the other early people, which helped pass the wait. As others have said, the consulate will prioritize numbering order on a first-come-first-serve basis. The security guard opened the door at 7:30 to put out a couple of signs, then went back inside withou... read complete review
