Eighth, level on 34 with the Comfort Inn Aéroport and behind it on guest parking — Choice doesn't price it here. The Quality Hotel sells Stay & Fly packages, and Choice says parking charges don't apply when you buy one; breakfast is free.
Choice also lists free airport transportation: call the hotel once you've claimed your luggage.
Stay & Fly guests must show a return flight itinerary to Montréal — so a cruise that doesn't fly home from YUL may not qualify, and Choice prints no package price.
Call to ask whether your cruise qualifies and what the package costs for your dates, then cab to the Grand Quay.

Quality Hotel Dorval FAQ
Does Quality Hotel Dorval have a cruise shuttle?
Not that it publishes. No ride to the ship. Choice lists free airport transportation, not a ride to the port, and the port is a cab ride into town.
Does Quality Hotel Dorval have an airport shuttle?
Yes, from YUL. Choice lists free airport transportation: call the hotel from the airport after you've claimed your luggage. Choice prints no hours; Park Sleep Fly, a reseller, lists 3 PM to 11 PM daily.
Can I park at Quality Hotel Dorval while I cruise?
Yes, by arrangement. "Parking charges not applicable when Stay & Fly packages are purchased," per Choice, which adds that "guests are required to present a copy of their return flight itinerary to Montreal". It prints no package price and doesn't mention cruises, so a cruise that doesn't fly home from YUL may not qualify; ask.
How far is Quality Hotel Dorval from the cruise terminal?
Choice mentions the Old Port among nearby sights without a distance. Holland America puts YUL 21 km (13 miles) and about 30 minutes from the port, depending on traffic, and the Port of Montréal lists the airport's flat daytime taxi fare to the Grand Quay, C$49.45. In our ranking it's in the “By YUL” 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 3:00 PM and check-out 12:00 PM. 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?
There's no hotel shuttle to the port. 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?
Free hot breakfast. 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 stated. 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.
