"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."

"The InterContinental connects with the Montréal World Trade Center by way of an atrium, where guests and visitors are served a bonanza of shopping and leisure options under one roof."
Star Service
"Part of the World Trade Centre, this top-ranked commercial address may sit in the shadow of the newer Ritz-Carlton and old favorite Fairmont, but it remains one of the city's finest." Full review

The proportions of even the Standard rooms are above average, and the large corner rooms are worth requesting, though a wee bit more expensive.
Gayot

Michelin Guide
"With high-rise views and floor-to-ceiling windows, these plush, oversized rooms and suites are anything but edgy. But neither are they bland...the furnishings are modernist classics" Full review
