Quebec’s largest city and cosmopolitan hub was once a simple missionary village called Ville-Marie, today, Montreal is one of the busiest inland ports with a vibrant cultural life and a myriad of attractions. Horse drawn carriages still clatter down the cobblestones of Old Montreal past Notre Dame Basilica to the Old Port while at the opposite end of the spectrum downtown Montreal’s underground city, an 18 mile network of shops and hotels, is a modern metropolis.
Sitting in charming Old Montreal, Hotel Nelligan was built over 100 years ago, and today it’s lovingly restored to a modern splendour, whilst maintaining its historic characteristics. Cobblestone streets, quaint cafes and shops and Montreal’s historical attractions surround the hotel.
Although designed in a distinct contemporary style, an echo of Old Towns’ historic architecture is clearly evident at this boutique hotel. Stone and brick walls, elegant fireplaces and dark furnishings set a cultured tone. The 44 guestrooms are spacious, individual in design and offer a mini bar, stereo system with CD player, warm bathrobes and wonderful bathroom amenities. A choice of 59 suites, have the added luxury of a fireplace, Jacuzzi bath and separate shower.

A second restaurant, Mechant Boeul Bar-Brasserie has a more relaxed setting and menu and both are complemented by Verses Bar with it art-rium and warming fireplace.
