"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."

"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."

"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."
