Exploring Montreal, Museums and Galleries

MONTREAL occupies a 50-kilometer (30-mile) long island at the confluence of the St. Lawrence and the Ottawa River. The city core, where many sights are found, is fairly compact and lies to the south and east of Montreal’s main landmark, Mont-Royal. Vieux Montréal, the old city, is nestled on the shore of the St. Lawrence, while the modern downtown lies between it and Mont-Royal. Streets follow a fairly consistent grid pattern making the city easy to navigate. Read more

Canadian Cozy Getaways

To most non-Canadians, Canada is thought of as the land of cold and snow. We know better, don’t drive dog sleds to work and don’t live in igloos! Most of us anyway. And even if it is cold some part of the year, a Canadian winter isn’t all bad! You simply get to cuddle close to the ones you love a little longer during the winter months.

If you are seeking a special place to cozy up this winter, you can enjoy a romantic Montreal hotel get-away. Enjoy a night IN and get served hot chocolate before bed and breakfast in bed the next morning. Check out late too (2pm)! Montreal luxury hotels aim to pamper you during your stay. With so many things to do all winter long, Montreal is just a short flight from Toronto, or a mere hour and a half from New York city.
