Hotel Place d'Armes

The 10 Best Hotels in Montréal, According to Vogue | Vogue

"Spread across four neoclassical buildings dating to the 19th century, the Hôtel Place d’Armes is located just steps from Montréal’s soaring Notre-Dame Basilica and the St. Lawrence River. Exposed brick and original woodwork give the 169 rooms a sense of history, while Frette linens, Le Labo amenities, and the occasional electric fireplace keep things decidedly of-the-moment. While the city’s famed Bota Bota floating spa is just a 15-minute walk away, wellness-seeking guests will find no reason to leave the property: The hotel’s 3,000-square-foot spa has a eucalyptus-scented hammam and 10 treatment rooms offering everything from Biologique Recherche facials to lymphatic drainage massages and nail care featuring products by toxin-free Parisian brand Manucurist. For its relatively small footprint, Hôtel Place d'Armes punches far above its weight from a culinary POV, with a fabulous on-site brasserie, a trendy sushi bar, and a panoramic roof terrace (open seasonally) that’s widely considered one of the city’s best spots for outdoor drinks with a view." - Siobhan Reid
