The property’s design was fantastic. It was experiencing Victorian era in 2025. Having said that, the size of the room for the money paid was not impressive at all. The place could have been a little more inclusive which somewhere was a little uncomfortable. However, that may have been to do with the culture of the city. Not quite sure. We were overall happy with choosing this place. The hosts make sure that the place is extremely tidy and the food that is offered is tasty.

Our stay was excellent. We enjoyed our hosts and their local knowledge and hospitality! Our room was very comfortable and relaxing. We drove our car, Honda 2025 CRV, and were able to secure one of the two enclosed and locked garage spaces to leave our car and took metro, Lyft, and walked everywhere. It was wonderful. Breakfast was always filling and delicious. We met some wonderful other guests each morning around the breakfast table which added to our enjoyment of Gingerbread Manor.

Great location, challenging proprietor interaction

Great location and home to spend our vacation in Montreal. Appreciated close proximity to the transit system, places to eat, and the general walkability of the area. I'd recommend staying here if that's your primary goal, as it was ours. Reasonably value.

Hosts were generally friendly and hospitable, we just wish there wasn't such a focus on unmerited polarizing and political discussion - an absolute no-no in the hospitality industry (having stayed at dozens of B&Bs globally, we know it's not a successful approach). There are many comments and reviews before on the topic, we came in completely open and found that even seemingly trivial things like recycling in Pittsburgh (our home city, hosts had clearly never been there) and the US educational system (my partner was an administrator of a large public school system, was quietly insulted, and thus made the choice to not communicate following such unwelcome commenting) were made abrupt political topics. Overall, discussions just shouldn't have went there.

I'll note that we are an LGBTQ couple, very liberal in our leanings, including a dual-citizen. We stayed at a B&B in rural Nebraska this weekend, and even knowing the proprietors had a very different world views than ours, they were amazing (non-queer) hosts who understood the importance in customer relationship, asked us about our hometowns, careers, families, and gave insightful local historical perspectives without the need for polarizing discussion.

Possibly the best bnb in Montreal?

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the gingerbread manor, it is the bed and breakfast with everything you could ever want. The owners have obviously taken the time to think about and make sure that every visitors stay is as comfortable as possible. The beds are super comfy and rooms/beds were remade each day. The breakfast was delicious with a wide selection of cereals, fresh Montréal bagels, and a different cooked choice for each day of our stay. We would highly recommended a stay here if visiting, they also have handy secure parking ideal if you want to leave your car and not drive around the city.

Let’s just say that this property is underwhelming. It started when tried to ask about parking and requested to use their restroom before check-in and was told “Absolutely not”. There is certainly a much better way to explain that restrooms are not accessible until checkin, but to be greeted with such an off putting attitude was not the way I wanted to start a stay. Feeling like a nuisance rather than a guest, is never a good feeling.
With that said, I definitely felt like I was just staying in someone’s home, not a bed & breakfast. The kitchen was not clean when accessing it for water in the evening and the entire residence needs a major cleaning and freshening up. Simply put, when I go away, I want to be somewhere nicer than my home-soft towels, linens, friendly people & energy.
Instead, it felt hostile and negative any time I came in contact with owner. Montreal didn’t disappoint, this property did.

The building was built in 1885 and has been restored to what appears to be its original condition. Step inside this bed and breakfast and you will instantly feel like you have stepped back in time. It is simply beautiful and exudes the history of its day. I parked at the back of the building in what use to be the old carriage and horse stable! Our room was on the third floor, we had a king size bed, which was quite comfortable. The shared bathroom was at the end of the hallway, it was modern and clean. I believe there were two other rooms on our floor, but the building is so well constructed with stone that we never heard a sound from the other rooms. We have used b&b's in the past but always with private baths so this was our first experience with a shared bathroom and to be honest found the experience not to be any problem.

The Gingerbread Manor B&B was located perfectly in Montreal. There is so much to see and do in walking distance including the famous Saint Laurent Boulevard. The place looks very nice inside and out, but looks can sometimes be deceiving.

The air inside the B&B is filled with dust. I would think with the amount I paid to stay there would be an air purifier in every room. The stairs and floor creaked, loudly, with each step I took. The place needs some remodeling. The owners were less than charming.

What a B&B is supposed to be

Yves and Ephraim are what innkeepers are supposed to be; friendly, informative, social and even a bit irreverent.

Unlike some other innkeepers, they are engaged with their guests over breakfast, which was superb. We enjoyed the meal family-style, sitting at a big table and getting to know the others over coffee and conversation.

The property is spectacular. It is not modern, but maintained as it was when it was first constructed. It is beautifully apportioned. Gingerbread Manor is located in the Sherbrooke area of the city; close to the Metro and numerous restaurants.

The neighborhood is incredible. I used to stay at Lindsey's B&B for Women, and have been struggling to find someplace cute in the same area since Lindsey closed her B&B a few years back. This place is basically the owners' house, plus some extra rooms they rent. There were no communal spaces to hang out in, which may be different in the warmer months as I think they have a little yard. The room was clean enough. The kitchen that the owner prepared food in (for the guests) was not clean, and the owner ate his meals while preparing food for others (this was a turn off, prompting me to not want to eat any of the food he prepared). Owner Ephraim was extremely intrusive with his conversations and jokes (sometimes inappropriate jokes). I was talking with another guess one morning and he continually interrupted us, inserting unsolicited commentary. He made several off-handed comments about the United States. On my last morning (as I was walking out of the place), he asked me if there was anything he could have done better, joking that he was told to talk less by previous patrons. I felt kind of put on the spot.

Give them an exact time of arrival, or else!

I didn't check my email from them and so I didn't see that they wanted me to tell them EXACTLY when (between 3 and 6) I was going to check in. We arrived at 4:30 to find the door locked. We rang the bell, and the door was finally (after a few bell ringings and knocks) opened a crack. The guy was VERY upset that we hadn't responded to his email, and said we were lucky that someone was there to let us in. He was very reluctant to do so. It seems to me that if check-in time was from 3-6 someone should be there from 3-6. He did let us in but he was pretty rude and very upset. The room was fine - clean, cute and charming. The overall hotel decor is a little dark, and the guy was so mean we didn't want to stay there and spent as little time as possible there. Parking was hard to find.

Ideal location and fabulous breakfast service

We had a great stay at Gingerbread Manor: Immaculately clean and comfortable rooms, extremely convenient (yet tranquil) location in downtown Montreal, helpful and friendly hosts, and an incredible breakfast spread every morning!

Great location for a first-time visit

This was my first visit to the city. The location was perfect. The B&B is in a residential area, right near St Denis and pedestrian street Rue Prince Arthur, popular streets with lots of activity, and what I hoped to see in Montreal. Very glad I didn't book one of the hotels downtown on Berri. I was surprised that the breakfast at the B&B wasn't a full breakfast.

Nice B&B in a neat non-touristy area of Montreal.

Easy to get anywhere in Montreal - walking or Bixi bikes close by. Lovely hosts who served a great breakfast. Lovely comfortable rooms in a beautifully maintained authentic Montreal century town home.

Great choice in downtown Montreal!

Comfortable establishment, accommodating hosts and a terrific location make this a wonderful place to stay. In a particularly charming part of town, and Ephraim and Yves make you feel most welcome. Looking forward to staying at Gingerbread on our next Montreal trip.

Great experience

I have been to Montreal many times, but never at a B&B. As soon as Yves came out, I knew I was at a very hospitable place. Very well maintained old home. The room was very comfortable and the service was amazing. Had to leave early both mornings I was there, Yves made sure I had something for breakfast although it was early. the neighborhood is amazing as it's close to everything. Thank you Yves

A great B&B experience for those new to B&B

I don't normally stay in Bed and Breakfasts. In fact, the last one I stayed in was probably 20 years ago, but I was very happy with Gingerbread Manor. It's a lovely old house in a charming neighborhood in central Montreal. The hosts, Yves and Ephraim were wonderful and very welcoming. They made my re-introduction to Bed and Breakfasts an easy one. The breakfasts were excellent, and there were many options to choose from. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Yves and Ephraim were also very knowledgeable about Montreal and Canada in general, and we had engaging conversations at breakfast. There were only 2 other rooms on my floor and 1 of those had a private bathroom, so the common bathroom was never an issue, I was never waiting. The only drawback would probably be legal parking which seemed to be very limited, but our hosts directed us to a lucky spot in front of the building which we kept for the rest of our stay. Montreal is such a beautiful city, and when I return I plan to go back to the Gingerbread Manor to make my stay that much more enjoyable. Thank you to Yves and Ephraim for making our stay very pleasant!
