Check Your Teens Into a Montreal Hotel Where the Building Is Part of the Experience

HOTEL10 is not the kind of hotel where you check in, go to your room, and call it a night. The building itself is worth exploring. Every floor has artwork to discover, and almost everything you see has a story behind it: the themed suites built around Quebec jazz history, Quebec sports legends, and one of the province's most beloved musicians, the corridors that once housed an artists' commune in the 1990s, and the artwork that has been part of the place ever since. For parents with teens who want an overnight stay in the city that gives them something to talk about well beyond the room itself, it is worth knowing about.

Where:
10 Sherbrooke Street West, Montreal, QC H2X 4C9
🚇 Saint-Laurent

Highlights:

• A Building Full of Stories: The Edifice Godin, built in 1915, is one of Canada's first residential Art Nouveau buildings and is part of Quebec's cultural heritage registry. In the early 1990s, the building became an artists' commune housing musicians, sculptors, and photographers. It was on the third floor of this building that André "Dédé" Fortin gathered the musicians who would become Les Colocs, one of Quebec's most influential bands of the 1990s, and that is just one of the stories the hotel holds. The hotel has since dedicated an entire suite to his memory. Plaques and displays throughout the floors explain the artwork and the history behind the building itself, so there is always something to stop and read on the way to or from your room.
  
  
• Family-Friendly Rooms Available: The Executive Suite is the hotel's standout option for families with teens, offering 665 to 780 square feet across two separate rooms. The suite has two separate rooms: a bedroom with a king bed and soaker tub, and a living room with either a queen bed or sofa bed and its own bathroom with a glass-walled shower. Plenty of space for a family of four to spread out.
  
  
• Themed Suites Worth Knowing About: For teens into music, sports, or Quebec cultural history, the hotel's three signature suites are worth a look. The Loft Opus is a 650-square-foot jazz-themed suite transporting guests to the prohibition era, with a gramophone, vinyl records, paintings of musicians by Quebec artist Rémi LaBarre, a soaker tub with chromotherapy lighting, and a separate living area with kitchenette. Suite10 is an 800-square-foot sports suite featuring artwork by Adlan Kaezar highlighting roughly 20 athletes who made sports history in Quebec and around the world, along with a 75-inch screen, an open-concept kitchenette with island seating, and two lounge areas. Suite 2116 occupies the loft where Dédé Fortin lived from 1991 to 1998, and is designed to immerse guests in the artist's world through handwritten notes, quotes, stained glass windows, and a mural. All three suites require a direct call to book. For a closer look at the themed suites, the hotel has a video gallery available at hotel10montreal.com/video-gallery.
  
  
• Breakfast and Café on Site: The hotel's breakfast buffet features local and seasonal selections, with outdoor terrace seating available when the weather allows. Café Origine, adjacent to Espace Godin, is open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM. BAR20, the hotel's bistro and wine bar, serves lunch and dinner Sunday through Saturday, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday evenings.
  
  
• A Downtown Location That Gets You Everywhere: HOTEL10 sits at the base of Boulevard St-Laurent, within easy reach of the Plateau, the Quartier des Spectacles, Old Montreal, Chinatown, and Little Italy. For parents and teens planning a day of exploring the city, it is a practical base that does not require a car.
  
  
• Pet-Friendly Rooms Available: The hotel accommodates dogs and cats in designated pet-friendly rooms for an additional fee per stay, which makes it an option for families who travel with an animal.

Recommended Audience:
This is a good option for parents with teens looking for an overnight stay in Montreal that offers more character than a standard hotel, with a downtown location that makes it easy to explore on foot.

What to Expect:
A boutique hotel in downtown Montreal where the art, the history, and the stories behind them are as much a part of the stay as the room itself. 

Some things to consider during your visit:

• Valet Parking Is Available but Has Time Restrictions: Valet parking in the hotel's secure underground garage runs from 7 AM to 11 PM. If you need to access a vehicle outside those hours, security can accompany you, but it is worth knowing before you arrive that overnight access is not self-serve. The garage has a clearance of 1.9 metres, so taller vehicles should confirm fit in advance.
  
  
• Room Service Is Not Available Every Day: Room service at HOTEL10 operates Tuesday through Saturday only. Those planning to eat in on a Sunday or Monday will want to use Café Origine or make other arrangements.
  
  
• Some Themed Suites Require a Direct Call to Book: Suite 2116 and Suite10 cannot be booked through the standard online reservation system. It is worth confirming the booking process for any of the themed suites directly with the hotel before you reserve.
