Hôtel Ruby Foo's Hotel Ruby Foos

I had to visit Montreal to attend a friends surprise birthday party on 7th February. However travelling from Toronto and it being a day with adverse weather conditions I decided to stay at this hotel.
I did reach the hotel at 3pm, an hour before the normal check-in time. However Samha who was manning the reception desk at the time, immediately upgraded my room and cheked me in taking into consideration that I had travelled almost 7 hours in adverse conditions. I thought it was a very kind and professional act on her part. Putting the customer first.
The room was very clean and comfortable as well and the staff very courteous and helpful. The location is very centrally located as well closer to restaurants and other amenities.
Very reasonable rates too.

I don’t care if the hotel is dated. The rooms and overall environment was spotless. I’ve stayed in 5 star downtown hotels that couldn’t maintain the level of hygiene and cleanliness that we experienced at Ruby foos. Staff were also friendly, prompt and organized.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a wonderful 2-day stay at Ruby Foo’s Hotel. Everything was fantastic from start to finish. The staff were incredibly kind, helpful, and professional. The reception team welcomed me with the most amazing smiles, which made me feel truly comfortable and at home. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Montreal. Thank you for such a beautiful experience! 😊✨

I worked late until 4am. It was the only hotel that welcome me with no hesitation.
Receptionist was very nice young man made the reservation smooth and fast. Needed to wake up at 6am to go back to work, so, he made sure to wake me up on time.

Positive: The manager was extremely kind and helpful making sure that my stay in Montreal was very comfortable.

Perfectly located hotel, beautiful entrance, very nice amenities like a hairdresser, very good breakfast restaurant directly connected to the hotel (non included breakfast), a pool and even a ice rink. An AMAZING gym and sauna. I understand that they plan to also open a restaurant and bar soon in the hotel which adds to this long list of great amenities.
The rooms are definitely dated and maybe not up to 4 star hotel standards (I had the deluxe room). Also had a little or two misshaps on service for those standards. But for the excellent price, you get absolutely great value. I had a very good experience.
Good job!

Spacious rooms, good prices, and good front desk service all around the clock. My sink water pressure was too strong and the sink took a long time to drain the water, but aside from that I have no complaints. The hotel also has free parking and complimentary 24/7 access to a gym/sauna.

One of the worst hotels I have been to. In fact its not even a hotel. Its a motel at best. The rooms and bathrooms look old and used. There is zero service. There isn't even basic amenities such as courtesy water bottles. No microwave. There is a small fridge. TV is super old. Even a Roku smart TV would could you no more than $200. The 4 star reviews are all fake. This is 2 star at best. I paid $340 for 2 night but it doesn't deserve anymore than $180-$200

Not my first time staying at this hotel. Very convenient, very spacious and depending when you visit, very affordable! An older hotel but very clean. Front desk staff are very helpful and friendly. The room was a little dated with the sink not really draining well (a few extra seconds but not a big deal). The A/C was a little noisy as it is a little old but I didn't mind as I considered it white noise. Overall a great experience. I'll definitely stay here again.

I think this is one of the more affordable hotels in Montreal, offering really good value for the price. The location is excellent — it’s just a short walk from Namur metro station, which makes it very convenient to get around the city, and only about a 7-minute walk to Royalmount Mall, where you can find a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants. Also, very near to walmart.
The overall cleanliness of the room and hotel was acceptable, though there’s definitely room for improvement. The sheets could have been cleaner, but the bed itself was quite comfortable, which made for a good and restful night’s sleep. There was also a bit of a strange smell in the corridor area that could be improved, but apart from that, the environment felt safe and pleasant.
The staff were friendly, welcoming, and made the check-in process easy and quick. What I especially liked about this hotel was the on-site restaurant for breakfast — the food was fresh and nicely presented. I absolutely loved their Eggs Benedict and would highly recommend trying it if you stay here.
Overall, it’s a good budget-friendly option in a convenient area, with kind staff and a surprisingly great breakfast experience.

Not much to say. It's a simple room. We did not hear any noise from the other rooms.
We did find the room a little dated. The rooms could use a little TLC. We totally enjoyed having a Nespresso machine in the room. It wasn't working all that well, but that's okay. I did enjoy the coffee when the machine did work. Simple as that.
FYI, they now have a Ben and Florentine in the building for breakfast. I missed out.

Practical, clean and comfortable rooms. Courteous staff. Pool was simple but refreshing and deck is well furnished to relax in the sun. Close to many amenities: 10-min walk to Walmart, numerous restaurants, metro station and main roads. Photos on website don't reflect this nice hotel. Priced just right for what you get.

What's great: The staff here are awesome, friendly and helpful. The toiletries provided are lovely. I love that they're organic and local. The room has a clever sliding wooden door to darken the room, much better than blackout blinds. It's a bee friendly hotel and they even have a little bee hotel on premises! The outdoor swimming pool temperature was WARM :) had an attendant, lots of seating options for sun and shade and comp towels. There are plenty of great food options walking distance. Subway station/Metro is steps away.
What's not so great: The in room coffee machines are awful and the cups provided don't fit under them. The rooms are clean but you can see signs of wear, the A/C was loud. The inside of the pool looks like it could be refreshed.
It's not a luxury hotel, but it's clean, eco-friendly, great staff, great location, good value. Book online for a better price than just showing up.

The public areas look nice, and the in-room coffee is good. Free parking is a plus. The front desk staff are polite, and room cleanup is quite frequent. Hot water is a bonus.
The building is old, so the appliances—like the fridge and cabinets—are just functional. The gym seems okay, but other facilities, such as the steam room, exist more in name than in function.

The value you pay at this hotel is worth it. Simple but effective. Rooms are clean and nothing fancy just simple. The only problem with Ruby Foo's is that not all the facilities are working. This time the restaurant was getting renovated but there are other establishments with good food around the area. Last time there pool was down for renovations.

Great location, clean rooms, helpful & friendly staff.
When I read some of the reviews for Ruby Foo's Hotel I almost cancelled my reservation but decided to give it a go after checking a few more websites for their opinions and I'm some glad I stayed with my choice.
There are so many food choices close by, I especially recommend Orange Juliet across the street and Dunn's just down the block and also LaBelle Province right next door.
Having the Nemur metro stop just one block away was very convenient as was the free parking at the hotel so we never had to drive in the traffic unless we wanted to.
We had a kitchenette which made it easy to have a leisurely breakfast while enjoying the nespresso machine in our room. Fridge was under the counter but big enough to hold a 18" pizza box. Only thing that would make it better would be to include dishcloths and towels but the dollarama across the street was an easy fix.
Pool was very refreshing with lots of seating and a life guard on duty.
Ruby Foo's will be our go to whenever we happen to be in Montreal.

I've stayed at Ruby foos twice. Its the perfect location away form downtown Montreal while still being close to absolutely everything. All of my interaction with staff was pleasant. Housekeeping did wake me at 930am to let me know that check out was at 11, and despite telling them I had late check out, she knocked again at 1055. The lobby is absolutely beautiful and both times my room was clean. My only complaint is that the rooms don't quite match the Lobby esthetic. The dresser and bathroom door has some gouges of wood out of them and there were marks on the walls. But that didnt take away from the comfortable beds, fresh smelling rooms, clean towels and linins. And some pretty comfortable pillows. — for the price point and location it honestly can not be beat!
