Fodor's Expert Review Le Place d'Armes Hôtel and Suites

55 rue St-Jacques, Québec, H2Y 1K9, Canada Fodor's Choice

Four splendidly ornate neoclassical commercial buildings were merged to create Old Montréal's largest boutique hotel, pleasing honeymooners and business execs alike with its old-fashioned grandeur, exposed brick walls in rooms, hammam (Middle Eastern–style steam bath), rooftop terrace, and unobstructed views of the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Montréal.

PROS

  • Best (Turkish) spa in town
  • Japanese tavern with hamachi bibimbap (marinated yellowtail)
  • Rooftop bar

CONS

  • Late sleepers may be disturbed by the noontime Angelus bells at the basilica
  • Steep approach from métro is slippery in winter
  • Rooms in new building have no bathtubs, only multi–jet showers
