We loved Pensionne Popolo and will be back! It was very convenient to restaurants, all kinds of shopping, music events, and close to the Metro. The room and shared bathrooms were clean and the other guests were quiet and respectful.

It's not fancy but a great option if this is the area in Montreal you're looking to visit. Worked really well for my family of four to catch a concert at the nearby Fairmont Theatre. Clean enough for sure and we felt safe and secure.

This is a really fun place to stay. If you are able to carry your bag up four or five flights of stairs. It was a great price and the place has lots of personality!

Great bargain in a great location. Eclectic hotel. Restaurants galore and nightlife right outside the door. I stayed to see Alanna Sterling in concert at Urbanista, a bar three blocks away. Whenever they return to this area of Montreal for another show, I will definitely stay at Pensione Popolo.
