| - Home of the John Lennon suite...yes this is the place where John and Yoko had their infamous bed in back in 1969.
So I got to stay here, no not in THAT room, but an equally nice one. The windows are big and give you a great view of Montreal. It made for a romantic weekend, with my wife and I ordering room service and looking out the window as the sun set over a frigid (minus 30 degree) day.
We had great food, two nights in a row, from the hotel. Which included a delicious burger, a great pasta dinner and one of the best creme brule desserts we had ever tasted.
It is a snooty hotel, and with our free weekend (due to points on my credit card) it made for some laughs between the two of us, at these stuck up people that were paying upwards of $300 a night.
They have afternoon tea, with finger foods and sweets. The restaurant also has a pretty decent breakfast. But remember, even if you get a good deal, the place is 4 stars and has 4 star prices for the food.
The lobby is beautiful and has a door that leads to an escalator that brings you right downstairs to the Montreal train station. So you never have to leave your hotel without getting the train.
