Exceptional luxury hotel in the heart of downtown Montreal |
|
|
|
|
|
| Fabulous coffee, croissants, muffins, and sandwiches. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Decadent breakfast spot in the Latin Quarter specializing in crepes (try the banana with chocolate) and Cafe Au Lait. |
|
|
4. Old Montreal (Vieux-Montreal)
|
|
| Great place to sightsee, get a feel for the way Montreal used to be, and do a little souvenier shopping. Beautifully lit up at night, though no stores are open. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Historically famous pub serving mediocre pub grub and average beers. Tourist trap you can easily miss. |
|
|
6. Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (Musee des Beaux-Arts)
|
|
| Well-laid out and attractively done museum. Smaller than expected, but worth a look. |
|
|
7. Restaurant Lo Stivale Di Oro
|
|
| Fabulous Italian restaurant where the waiters treat you like family. Best Italian food I've ever had. Try the spumoni ice cream- it's incredible. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Great Cappuccino- the breakfast left something to be desired. Stick with the coffee and avoid the croissants (passable, but you can find much better in the area). |
|
|
|
|
|
| The equivalent of the Canadian Gap with lots of fun t-shirts, sweats, and hats. THE place for fashionable souveniers. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Supposedly the best place to get "smoked meat" in Montreal. If you're from New York, skip it, it's a long line for a corned beef sandwich. If not, it's an excellent lunch and a bargain at $5 a sandwich. |
|
|
11. Notre-Dame Basilica (Basilique Notre-Dame)
|
|
| We never made it to this one b/c there are weddings all day Saturday (until 3) and masses through Sunday. The books don't tell you this, but go during the week when this isn't an issue. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Fun zoo in a natural environment- fun for adults who love animals and families with children. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Cool in some parts, boring in others. This is basically an underground mall with a fancy name. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Interesting to see a Canadian university. Staff and students are extremely friendly and willing to help you navigate the campus. |
