Best Hotels & Areas to Stay in Montréal

Discover Where to Stay in Montréal

Montréal, a vibrant island city, offers three main districts for sightseeing: Old Montréal (Vieux-Montréal), Downtown (Centre-Ville), and Plateau Mont-Royal. These areas are accessible by bus, M&233;tro, or on foot, and locals often joke about their "BMW" city.

For newcomers, Old Montréal is the prime location to experience the city's historic charm, with convenient access to shopping, dining, and major attractions. City tours frequently start here, where European explorers first settled, and the area's stunning architecture is a highlight. Nearby Chinatown offers budget accommodations, while those pressed for time can rent a car to explore more.

Visitors can see the original "Habitant" settlement stone walls from 1738 near Old City Hall and the waterfront. Cirque du Soleil also favors this district, debuting shows at the Old Port.
