This was by far the coolest hotel we have ever stayed at! Weekend away without the kids, and this place was just perfect for our getaway. Heritage building mixed with modern day style and amenities was breathraking. We will be back again soon!

Loved all the little touches - kitchen with quality, useful equipment and tools, speaker and record player were fun. Beds were very comfortable. Very pleasant experience and the location was very handy. Only thing we would change is increased air circulation - didn't really need it colder but needed more airflow as the air had a tendency to get kinda stale. Info on how to achieve this would be useful in the guest book.

A wonderful overnight stay... very nice linens/toiletries (had to buy myself some that were delivered prior to our departure) the only negative. No corkscrew so i had to go buy one to enjoy a bottle of wine i had brought with me. No biggy. Would not hesitate to recommend staying here... currently at the Marriot Hotel in old Montreal and all i feel is sad it isnt the Smith Hotel. Whoever designed the loft (#7) nailed it

I had a brief overnight stay at this wonderful hotel, housed in a historic building beautifully converted into modern accommodations. The place was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. I found the contactless check-in and check-out process to be very easy and convenient. The only minor issue was the room becoming a bit warm due to lack of ventilation when the bedroom door was closed. However, the hotel’s excellent location, with shopping and restaurants just a short walk away, more than made up for this. I would definitely recommend staying here and look forward to returning.

I'm not tech savvy, so was initially concerned with request for digital check in. However, the humans there came to my rescue, and all was well. Our room was very comfortable and quiet. We rested well.

Property is immaculate. Everything was like new. I was not sure about the unattended sign in, but the instructions were clear and I had no problem in obtaining my key fob from the automated lock box.

This property was extremely nice - exactly as depicted. Also the uniqueness of a converted church was really memorable. The room was well-appointed with everything you need. I was a little concerned about the unmanned status of the property but it wasn’t an issue at all. One block from the Main Street. My only feedback to them would be the room was really cold (drastically over air conditioned) and because we only stayed one night and all the walls are stone and the floor concrete by the time it was a reasonable temperature we were checking out.

Very cool looking hotel and easy to access. Location is great and texting the staff is generally responsive during the day. However maintenance is 40mins to an hour away and you cannot control the heat yourself. It takes 4 hrs for it to respond after they change it. It was also extremely noisy. You can hear people walking up and down the stairs in the rooms next door. The first time I heard people talking I thought they were inside my room! But no they were explaining how to play a card game at 12am and laughing until about 4am. There were no earplugs. I didn’t get any sleep. Also the rock/wall in the shower is breaking down so you shower on sand pretty much. They need a good sealant.
