Embassy Suites FAQ
Does Embassy Suites have a cruise shuttle?
No, and you may not need one. 0.10 km to the Old Port of Montreal, by Hilton's count; the airport shuttle is "Not available" and no ride to the ship is listed.
Does Embassy Suites have an airport shuttle?
Not that it publishes. Hilton lists an airport shuttle here as "Not available". It puts YUL 14 miles away.
Can I park at Embassy Suites while I cruise?
The hotel doesn't say. Secured self-parking on site, C$39.14 a day with in and out; no valet. Nothing about leaving the car while you cruise.
How far is Embassy Suites from the cruise terminal?
Hilton puts the Old Port of Montreal 0.10 km away, and Old Montréal and the Notre-Dame Basilica the same. It gives no distance to the terminal itself. In our ranking it's in the “Downtown, by Old Montréal” band. Montréal's cruise ships use the Grand Quay of the Port of Montréal in Old Montréal, across from the Pointe-à-Callière museum. Terminals 1 and 2 are at 200 rue de la Commune Ouest, per the Port, and Terminal 3 is at the Berri entrance, further east along the Old Port. The Port's schedule lists which terminal each ship uses, and your cruise documents settle it.
Can I check in early or check out late on cruise days?
Check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out 11:00 AM. The hotel doesn't publish early or late terms, so ask when you book, not on the day.
Will the hotel hold my bags?
The hotel doesn't say. Most hotels will hold bags between check-out and a late shuttle, but that's a call to make, not an assumption.
Does the port shuttle come back for me after the cruise?
You can walk back to the Old Montréal hotels, and none runs a shuttle to the ship. From the Grand Quay it's a C$49.45 flat taxi to YUL by day, per the Port.
What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?
Complimentary made-to-order buffet. Your terminal check-in window is in your cruise documents, and the port asks you not to arrive before it.
Can I park an oversized vehicle or charge an EV?
EV charging: not on site. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. The Grand Quay lot takes no trailers or motorhomes, per the Port, so an RV needs another plan; ask the Port.
