Overview
The Hotel Kutuma is located on St. Denis Street, and is popular with guests looking for an intimate, boutique-style hotel in Montreal's vibrant Plateau neighbourhood.
There are 9 rooms in this 4-floor hotel, which does not have an elevator. Guests may choose a room with a queen or king bed, or a suite with a separate living area and jacuzzi tub. All of the guest rooms are air conditioned and feature a kitchenette. Each room also comes with a hair dryer, a phone, a DVD player, and a work desk. Guests can enjoy free Wi-Fi from their rooms or anywhere else in the hotel, and valet parking is provided for $25+tax/day.
The hotel's restaurant, The Blue Nile, is an Ethiopian restaurant popular with local Montrealers and also provides room service 7 days a week. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner and also serves an American style breakfast daily.
The Hotel Kutuma is a 3-minute walk from Sherbrooke metro station, and a 10-minute walk, or 1 metro stop, from Berri-UQAM station. Both the bus station and a stop for the 747 airport express bus are located at the Berri-UQAM station. The train station is 4 metro stops from the hotel, at Bonaventure station.
Located in the heart of Montreal's Plateau neighbourhood, the hotel is in the middle of countless cafés, bakeries, restaurants and bars. The bring-your-own-wine (BYOW) restaurants on St. Denis Street and on cobble-stoned Duluth Avenue offer many choices — Italian, Vietnamese, Afghan and Middle Eastern. The nightlife is varied as well, with options like microbreweries and jazz bars. For guests interested in shopping, there are many large chain stores on St. Denis Street, as well as boutiques with local designers on St. Denis Street and Mont Royal Avenue.

The Bad
Negative comments about the hotel were minimal in the reviews sourced for this analysis. Of those limited criticisms, most were directed toward the hotel's lack of elevator. There are 4 floors in the hotel, and some reviewers suggested that guests with limited mobility may wish to request a room on a lower floor.
While there were numerous comments that the hotel was quiet and peaceful, a few reviewers mentioned that the noise from the restaurant on the main floor carried into their rooms, particularly on busy weekend nights.
