I stayed in Montreal during July 2008.
The hotel had one room left, smoking, and I was desparate so I took the room for $139. The shower was broken and I told the front desk that I needed to shower right away for a business meeting. The front desk advised me to use the pool shower. I said give me a discount because I paid good money for a personal shower, and they said no way.
The hotel room was clean and descent, but the bed I saw was really old and crappy looking.
I would never stay here again because of the service, but for a budget traveller then okay, but if you can afford $150, stay elsewhere in Montreal.

We stayed there for three nights May 29 - June 2, 2008 and it's still being renovated. The lobby is mostly finished with a rather nice dark paneled wood and decent lounge area. The concierge was borderline rude but not to the point of ruining the stay, and the rooms were very decent. They were clean, rather basic, with two large beds with a red bedspread, a small table and lamp, the dresser with a TV on top, very standard for a Holiday Inn and similar chains. The bathroom could have used a reno with the tub being stained and water pressure being moderate, but it was not awful by any stretch. The vanity area needs better lighting as fluorescent lamps remind one of prisons and hospitals and make everyone look corpselike. There was an iron provided and a weak hairdryer.
The restaurant was quite decent, the food was well prepared, simple and very reasonably priced.
The location can't be beat, so if you don't rely on your hotel for much more than sleep, then it's not a bad place to tour Montreal from. You can walk to old Montreal AND Schwart'z, and the shopping on rue St. Catherine, so for us it was a pretty decent stay.

Having had a disasterous stay in Holiday Inn on King, Toronto, this hotel was definitely a lot friendlier and had a good buzz about it. The restaurant was very good, having tried it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The location is also very good. However, the rooms leave a lot to be desired. You couldn't swing a cat in the bathroom and the bathroom in our room had a big hole in the ceiling. There were renovations taking place at the time so the ceilings were down on our floor (can't remember whether it was the 9th or 10th floor) and looked unsightly.

We spent 3 nights at the Holiday Inn Midtown over Memorial Day weekend. The hotel was very conveniently located and we got a terrific price($61 a night plus taxes and fees plus $18.50 a night for parking) on Priceline. We are Priority club members so our room was on the Concierge floor and a continental breakfast was included. It's hard to beat that value. The hotel is being renovated so the lobby and entrance are a mess. The room was a decent size with a small bathroom. The people at the front desk were very nice at check-in. The concierges were fairly incompetent - they could not give decent directions to anywhere. However, we managed to find our way around and had a terrific mini-vacation at a terrific price.

We arrived around lunchtime and were given a VERY RUDE introduction. The concierge of this hotel were so unfriendly and unhelpful, in addition to the incompetence that they displayed. The rooms, however, were very comfortable, aside from the small bathroom. **All the rooms ajoined**
If you can, park your car elsewhere because the Valet was overpriced, even with in/out privileges and they were also incompetant. It took FAR TOO LONG to get the vehicles in and out.
Nice restaurant for breakfast or lunch.
Rue St. Catherine's is close (for restaurants and shopping) and the hotel is very well located to Old montreal, Chinatown, and the piers.
