"It is also one of the city's finest examples of deluxe hostelry. In fact, this exceptional independent is considered the Ritz-Carlton's only serious competition." Full review

"The St-Paul has been a star to design and architecture aficionados since it opened a decade ago, and it ranks among the most worthwhile of old buildings converted to hotels." Full review
Fodor's
"Forget fussy oil paintings or rococo furniture; the St. Paul keeps the focus on modern silk, stone, and raw-metal decor accents, which are admired by its fashionable guests." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"The too-cool faux-hawked staffers at this über-chic boutique hotel might be off-putting if the rooms weren’t so stylish and comfortable." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"The exterior of this Beaux-Arts building is deceiving, for inside is minimalist comfort and savvy design. Don’t miss the Raw Bar for the best ceviche (raw fish) in town."
Rough Guide
"This sleek Vieux-Montréal boutique hotel has white walls and linens that contrast nicely with the dark-wood floors and elegantly simple furnishings of the rooms and suites."
Star Service

Gayot
"From the outside, this hotel seems to be an old-world charmer."
BlackBook
"Serene and slick, white hot and entrancing. So cool it burns, like the flame in the marble wall at the entrance."
