Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel Montreal

"As soon as you walk off the cobblestoned street into the Saint-Sulpice, you'll feel the hotel's energy, thanks to sight lines that cross the lobby and move through the bar, the restaurant, and into the coveted sunny courtyard. There are a million comfortable spots to sit and relax on the ground floor. The ability to stretch out in a suite—the only room category at Le Saint-Sulpice—in historic Old Montreal is a luxury that can't be underestimated. French windows overlook charming Rue Saint-Sulpice or the even more charming inner courtyard, and some rooms have balconies. Although the decor feels a little dated—the busy patterned wall-to-wall carpet, the prevalence of red—one thing's for sure: the bed and bathroom are both plush and plenty comfortable. And when it comes to location Saint-Sulpice's (between Notre-Dame Cathedral and the waterfront in the Old Port) is stupendous." - Isa Tousignant, Todd Plummer

"Ikanos is now planning a special dine-and-stay menu for December 31 with the St-Sulpice Hotel for $625, which features a menu of hamachi, sea urchin, caviar, lobster, veal, truffle and foie gras." - Amie Watson

If you're in the mood to order in, what's your move?Room service comes from Sinclair, the popular onsite restaurant, which means you can bring fine dining up to your suite in the form of deer with parsnip mash, black garlic, and goat's cheese, a rack of lamb with polenta fries, or a smoked meat burger on pretzel bun. Was the service notable?The concierge service is next-level: fun, kind, and super knowledgeable about the goings-on around town. As you're hanging out around the Saint-Sulpice, what sticks out in your mind?In summer, the inner courtyard, an extension of Sinclair, is a true jewel. The open-plan lobby is also a lovely place to hang; sidle up to the bar in the Sinclair Lounge and order a Bloody Gentleman Jack Caesar—as good as it sounds. Okay, so bottom line: What's the main draw here?Saint-Sulpice's location (between Notre-Dame Cathedral and the waterfront in the Old Port) is stupendous, as are its roomy all-suite setup and elegant French windows." - Isa Tousignant
