The Montreal Chinese Hospital (French: Hôpital chinois de Montréal) is a former hospital and current long-term care facility (CHSLD) on Viger Avenue, just east of Le Quartier Chinois.

Despite no longer being an active hospital or having an emergency room, it maintains its historic name and primary mandate to serve the Chinese Canadian community residing in the province of Quebec. It is the only Chinese hospital in Canada.[1] The Montreal Chinese Hospital has 128 beds.[2]
