Opening hours

Bota Bota is one of Montreal’s most iconic spas, and for good reason. The location on a boat in the Old Port gives it a unique touch, but beyond the novelty, it delivers exactly what you'd expect from a top-tier spa. The water circuit is solid—similar to other high-end spots—but what really made my experience stand out was the massage. I went for a lymphatic massage post-surgery, and my therapist, Nancy V., was an absolute gem. She knew exactly what she was doing, was familiar with my type of surgery, and guided me through every step with care and expertise. She didn’t just perform the massage—she explained everything in detail, including what I needed to do at home to keep up the results. We even started with breathing exercises, which helped set the tone. It was my first lymphatic massage, so I had no point of reference, but it was everything I expected and more. The treatment rooms were spotless and calming, exactly what you'd want in a place like this. No complaints—just a flawless experience from start to finish. If you're considering a massage at Bota Bota, ask for Nancy.

the most relaxing space i’ve ever been in. the silence on the boat is divine, but i loved having the garden as an option to chat (in low volumes) with my group! particularly loved the city sauna & garden steam room. reserved our Saturday tickets a week in advance — there was a decent amount of people there, but nothing was too crowded / i never had to wait for a spot anywhere. i wish the water circuit was a full day pass instead of three hours — we didn’t want to leave!

I went to Bota Bota last saturday night to celebrate the anniversary with my husband. It was AMAZING! This place is special and particular, the view awesome, the food delicious and big portions. We're happy, it was definitely worth it. Being the first time, we were confused in the beginning, but the staff is kind and very helpful. They give you towels, shower with bath products and lockers. For sure I'll go back even for a nice, relaxing water circuit once in a while. Thank you!

The experience was superb with the facility providing different experiences such as hot sauna, river sauna, and 3 different thermal water circuit pools. The massage was excellent and food was tasty and wholesome with better quantity already part of my package. The view was excellent especially in Winter when the lake froze. Removed 1 star just for- 1. Moving my reservation for another day without notifying me. 2. Adding my email incorrectly because of which I didn’t receive the confirmation email to begin with.

Check- in took longer than most spas I have been to so give yourself extra time. We went on their "social Thursday" where a live jazz band was playing by the bar and pool area (loved it!!) and cellphones were allowed. They also had a BBQ being offered... we indulged in pulled pork which was very good while lounging. We did not eat at the restaurant but it looked lovely overlooking the water. Having done some major walking that day our legs were quite sore. Be ready for lots of stairs as there are many levels. The best part of the spa is the view!! Absolutely beautiful ❤️ We found some areas very dark when the sun set around the pool area. Overall it was a great way to end the evening taking in the skyline by the Vieux Port
