Gingerbread Manor Parking: The Options
Garage Parking in Plateau Mont-Royal
If you’re looking for parking in Plateau Mont‑Royal, here are the options at and near Gingerbread Manor.
We have two unheated garage spaces available by pre‑booking only. The garage is located at the back of the house and does not provide direct access to the main building. It fits most cars; the longest vehicle we have parked was a Honda Pilot at 4.75 m (15.5 ft) and it was a very tight fit. Each garage includes a Tesla charger available at no extra cost.
To reserve a garage space, add parking when you book online. If you are booking your room with us, add the garage to the same reservation. If you have already booked through another website, use the prepaid garage booking instead: those reservations reach us on a virtual card, so we hold no card of yours to charge the garage to, and the prepaid page collects payment when you book. The garage is parking for Manor guests only. It is not a room and no one sleeps in it. The garages sit five doors down the alley and you back in, so guests should unload luggage at the front door first.
Note: Garage reservations are non‑refundable. The garage booking page charges immediately.
Tip: If you already have a reservation, click “Repeat Guest?” on the contact form and enter the email used for your booking — most fields will be filled automatically.
- A Tesla charger available in each garage
Public Street Parking in Plateau Mont‑Royal
Free; but cannot be reserved or guaranteed. Street parking is subject to all local city parking regulations and is entirely at your own risk. We assume no responsibility whatsoever. Availability of street parking is not guaranteed and may be located several blocks away from the manor. See https://montreal.ca/en/topics/street-parking
Reserved Parking
Parking is reserved for permit holders (zone 10) between 3 PM and 11 PM. Look for two signs with arrows marking the zone start and end. A sign without arrows means you are inside the zone.
Wednesday Parking
Parking is forbidden between 9 AM and 10 AM on Wednesdays from April 1 to December 1 on the even side of the street.
Friday Parking
Parking is forbidden between 3:30 PM and 4:30 PM on Fridays from April 1 to December 1 on the odd side of the street.
Read signs carefully and watch for military time (e.g., “Times on signs are in 24-hour format.”).
French Parking Signs
The days of the week in French are: Dimanche (Sunday), Lundi (Monday), Mardi (Tuesday), Mercredi (Wednesday), Jeudi (Thursday), Vendredi (Friday) and Samedi (Saturday). Times on signs are listed in military time, so 15H is 3 PM. Zones marked as "Reservé" require a special permit. Debarcadère means loading zone.
Resident/Reserved Zone Parking
The Plateau Mont-Royal now also offers a daily (24 hour) pass to allow people to park in the “Resident Reserved Zone”. These passes are available at any of the centralized parking meters. The information is available at https://montreal.ca/en/how-to/get-daily-parking-sticker?arrondissement=PMR We are in zone PMR01. You take the printed ticket and place it in full view on the street side of the dashboard of your vehicle.
