Frommer's "One of the official lodging sites for the Musée des Beaux-Arts and McGill University, the Versailles is near the museum but outside most of the tourist orbit." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Myth and legend circulate when speaking of Château Versailles, partly because the four townhouses which it occupies were once home to Montréal’s upper crust."
Rough Guide "This unique and charming – if a bit faded – hotel sits in the northwestern edge of downtown. Rooms are traditionally elegant, and complimentary afternoon tea is offered daily."
Michelin Guide "Composed of four interconnected 19C Victorian town houses and a modern tower annex across the street, this former pension is prized for its price, personal service and convenient location in the museum district."
Star Service "This little dynamo has a split personality, with accommodations that possess the character and attention to detail of a high-end B&B, while the common areas convey more commercial overtones." Full review
BlackBook "Small, discreet and kinda sexy. This boutique hotel has got personality. Each room is decorated differently -a fireplace here, a bit of art deco there and a lot of gold and navy blue."
Fodor's "Dignified clientele appreciate the luxury within the Versailles' two elegant beaux-art mansions, with high ceilings, plaster moldings, and antique furnishings." Full review

Don't forget to ask for your free passes to the contemporary art museum and the Canadian Centre for Architecture.

Concierge "A stone's throw from the old port, the 105-room Nelligan, opened in 2002, combines classic Old Montréal charm (original stonework, dark woods) with modern touches (a soaring atrium)."
Fodor's "There's a cultivated air of refinement echoing through this ultraromantic hotel, a landmark on rue St-Paul named after Québec's most passionate poet, Émile Nelligan." Full review

At the pub-style bar, Méchant Bœuf, make sure to snag a table near the window overlooking rue St-Paul and watch the world hustle by.

DK Eyewitness "The Nelligan embraces the concept of boutique hotels, mixing contemporary furnishings with historic elements and designer decor."
Rough Guide Star
"With its dark wood, soft leather and gas fireplaces, Hotel Nelligan feels like a natural extension of its neighbourhood of Vieux-Montréal."
Michelin Guide "Boutique design, heritage stone, poetry framed on the walls (Nelligan was the Poet Laureate of Quebec), chocolates on your pillows, and one of the best dining/drinking locales in the city."
Star Service "This sophisticated art- and design-driven hotel is named after one of Quebec's favorite sons, poet Emile Nelligan, and his framed poems hang throughout the building." Full review
Gayot "Relax in a historic stetting that dates back to the late 1800s. Back then, the area was the downtown of the city, as all the goods and supplies were ferried through the port."
