Flotel

Such a unique experience - truly a cabin in the water. Tight quarters but you have everything you need and the bed is super comfy. Free parking right across the street. Great views and easy check in

What a fantastic experience. We came the weekend before the Regates and the festivities were already in full swing. We found incredible restaurants in the area next to the park and enjoyed an awesome entertainment experience just steps from the Flotel. And as for the Flotel, WOW!! The reservation was easy. The check-in was automated and super easy. The room was clean, comfortable, and super cool. A floating vacation. We enjoyed wine on the lakeside deck before heading out for the evening. We enjoyed watching the boats, socializing, and totally relaxing. Then when we got back at night, we lit the gas fireplace and found ourselves in a total zen paradise. What an amazing way to end the day. The bed was very comfortable and it was surprisingly quiet. We really felt like we were miles away from the hustle and bustle. I highly recommend the Flotel. Perfect with friends or for a romantic getaway.

Great place to stay. Awesome views. Really comfortable bed. Good location.

I’m writing this as I sit on the deck, fire at my feet, rain falling, church bells ringing, a cup of coffee from the nespresso. Seriously…I couldn’t ask for a better lazy Sunday to relax. That’s been my full experience since my arrival Thursday night. It’s absolutely delightful. Located on the Old Canal of Beauharnois, I have easy access to groceries, restaurants, shops and a Tim Horton’s! It’s a great town to walk, bike, kayak. You could even do an ice bath off your deck! The accommodations are small, but if you’re looking to experience tiny living, this is a great opportunity! The designers have creatively utilized every space to deliver a mood at every turn. I love that when I walk in, the first thing I see is the water and deck through the sliding glass doors. I love that the bathroom is spacious but gives me everything I need. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the coziness of the bed and the sliding glass doors a step and a glance away. But the real treat is the deck with my own personal fireplace! The deck benches are inviting and comfortable. I could literally sit out here all day, read a book, watch the ducks, listen to the rain and be perfectly content. Going forward, any time I’m in Montreal, I’ll be at the Flotel!

It’s a small space, but so comfy and fun. The room is very clean, we were in off season so no breakfast, gas fire pit on private deck that looks onto water very nice on cool morning to enjoy coffee. Minutes from delicious restaurants. Nespresso machine nice. The shower made us giggle, but was perfect in the small bathroom. No parking ticket as some stated. Have laminated pass to put in window of car for overnight. IMPORTANT though…you must park properly! We saw others getting ticketed for not following signs posted to angle park. Wish we could have stayed longer! Sliding door next to bed looks onto water. Calming, peaceful vacation vibe. Loved it!

Perfect place to practise sustainable living and speaking French. I noticed some reviews wanting more stuff on the balconys. Why do some people want to bring their home with them? I mean...imagine the maintenance and waste implications of "BBQ and drinks" on the deck. Seriously!? Go to the restaurant(s), take in the culture. You can BBQ and have messy party at home.

We stayed at Flotel Valleyfield for the 2024 eclipse. There were two couples in our group and Flotel honored our request to have adjoining cabins. Thank you for that! The cabin was cozy with comfortable accommodations including a queen bed, mini-fridge and fluffy cushions for the firepit on the outside deck. The rooftop patio was great for viewing the eclipse which we experienced at 100% totality. During our stay, we did encounter one maintenance issue which was handled promptly. The pump to our shower had malfunctioned and after texting the company, they had sent someone and it was repaired in a few hours. We totally enjoyed this new experience as we had never stayed on a floating hotel other than a cruise ship. Would recommend to anyone seeking an adventure. There is some wildlife in the area, we saw plenty of birds and also a beaver. We also love that it was convenient to local restaurants so there was no need to drive everywhere. Overall, a great place to stay and sightsee.

This hotel was an absolute gem. It had everything you need for the size. Heated floors was a bonus as it got cold (-6) during my night there. Keurig was nice to have, they even supplied bottled water. The view was worth the money. Check in was very easy and the parking space was great.
