Fodor's Expert Review Le Place d'Armes Hôtel & Suites
55 rue St-Jacques, Montréal, Québec, H2Y 1K9, Canada Fodor's Choice
Four splendidly ornate Victorian commercial buildings were merged to create Old Montréal's largest boutique hotel, pleasing honeymooners and business execs alike with its old-fashioned grandeur, exposed brick walls in rooms, hammam (Middle Eastern–style steam bath), rooftop terrace, and unobstructed views of the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Montréal. Order hamachi bibimbap (marinaded yellowtail) at the on-site Japanese tavern, Kyo Bar Japonais.
PROS
- best (Turkish) spa in town
- Japanese tavern (hamachi bibimbap [marinated yellowtail])
- rooftop bar
CONS
- late sleepers may be disturbed by the noontime Angelus bells at the basilica
- steep approach from métro is slippery in winter
- rooms in new building have no bathtubs, only multi–jet showers
