Grand Times Hotel Laval - Centropolis

Very hip high-end business-quality hotel with ultra-modern design. This is the suburbs of Montreal so no easy access to transit - I parked my car in the "free" lot next door, which was nearly full all the time. Area is near outdoor and indoor shopping. Room has fridge and 2nd bed is actually a Murphy bed. Microwave on ground floor only. 2 Water bottles in room cost $3.95 Canadian. Excellent stay with only a few items worth mentioning. 1) Gym quality is below expected for hotel of this type. Equipment is home gym quality. Stationary upright bikes were either broken or not working, and only recumbent bikes worked well. All treadmills turned away from the TV and facing a rather unattractive power plant and gas station. Not many gym towels available and no water provided. No wipes for equipment, only a non-functioning spray bottle and few small towels. 2) Pool area - pool size is awkward and not suitable for serious lap swimming, although it was often full of kids on weekends who seemed to enjoy. Bring non-skid shoes as the wet floor is VERY slippery. No towels in the pool area, must bring one from your room. There is a shower and changing room with toilet. No hot tub. 3) didn't see any in-room booklet with instructions on check-out time or room service. There is a restaurant open late in Centropolis (Jack Astors), but otherwise limited food options after 9pm. -- Overall, very comfortable and convenient stay if traveling by car.

very good option for familes with kids

That is a nice place quite, clean and good arrangements of breakfast as well. Stayed their with my family we all liked it.
