Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel Bonaparte

Housed inside a 19th-century building, the Auberge Bonaparte is a gem. The swank lobby, completely overhauled in 2014 with stark white walls, mirrors, faux ornamental molding, and a wall mounted electric fireplace, belies the rest of the hotel's old world charm. The rooms feature exposed stone walls, hardwood floors and original wood details. With old-fashioned good service, a great restaurant, and modern, comfortable rooms, what's not to love? Rooms near the rear have views over the private gardens of the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Montréal.
