Montreal Canada |
This district was once the wealthiest neighbourhood in Canada. It is estimated that the few hundred families in the district held an astonishing 70 percent of the entire country's wealth! Massive homes such as Ravenscrag-a 60-room mansion on des Pins Avenue West-were typical. You can still catch glimpses of this grandeur, where upscale apartment buildings, boutiques, restaurants, art galleries and museums have replaced many former residences, especially north of Sherbrooke.

Run by the Germain-des-Prés Development Group—the visionary hotel designers behind Quebec City's Hôtel Dominion 1912; this boutique property occupies a decidedly nondescript mid-rise office building in the depths of downtown Montreal. Inside, however, guests enjoy cutting-edge design, top-of-the-line furnishings and high-quality artwork. The elegant, ultramodern mezzanine lounge is the ideal place to unwind with a coffee or cocktail after a hard day. For those in need of an accommodation experience far beyond the typical midtown hotel, Le St-Germain is a stylish (if also very expensive) option. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Stepping into history |
St-Antoine St south to the St Lawrence River (Bleury St east to St-Denis St) Montreal, QC H2Y 3B2 Canada http://www.vieux.montreal.qc.ca |
The historic city centre is rich in museums, shops, restaurants and grey stone architecture spread out along narrow, cobblestone streets. It is also home to the Vieux Port attractions and lively public squares like Place Jacques-Cartier. Exploring Old Montreal means exploring the very heart of one of North America's greatest cities, a multi-faceted place where the past and the present come together in exciting and unexpected ways. Major attractions include City Hall (275 Notre-Dame St E), and the Old Customs House (400 Place d'Youville, featured in the film The Score). Review © 2007, Wcities |

With a transformation that started with Expo '67, Montreal's Old Port area has gone from an eyesore to a spectacular year-round playground for residents and tourists alike. Winter months are as active as the milder seasons (if not more so), and are marked by ice sculptures, skating and a living nativity scene. Tack on the IMAX Theatre and the iSci and it is easy to see why the Old Port draws millions. Most people come down via the Métro system but there is limited parking on site. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A transformed place |
Parc Avenue at Sherbrooke Street Montreal, QC H2V 4G9 Canada |
Beginning at Sherbrooke Street, Parc Avenue runs north through a diverse series of neighbourhoods and landscapes. North of des Pins the street widens and runs directly under Mount Royal and Jeanne-Mance Park's bongo players and tobogganing. Further north, Parc is the main drag of the city's Greek area; Milos is just one of many excellent Greek restaurants. The Fairmount and St-Viateur bagel shops, both just east of Parc, are remnants of the once huge Jewish community. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Farther east, the street becomes the main drag of the Gay Village, with its charming bistros and seething nightlife.
