Location. The Ritz-Carlton Montreal (Canada) has been a treasured landmark in the cultural and financial districts of Montreal since 1912. Located on Sherbrook Street, this elegant hotel is close to various attractions, including the Metro Station and the Museum of Modern Art, two blocks from the property. Within three blocks is Rue Crescent, filled with a mixture of restaurants and nightlife, and McGill University.
Hotel Features. The hotel features an easily accessible street-side entrance, leading to a Victorian- inspired lobby, accented by satin tapestries, fresh floral arrangements and marble flooring. The golden-hued lobby lounge, Le Ritz Bar, offers lunch, dinner, light appetizers and cocktails. In warmer months, Le Jardin du Ritz, usually enclosed, becomes an open-air, garden-style eatery overlooking a quaint duck pond, where afternoon tea and meals are served throughout the day. The hotel's signature café, Le Café de Paris, offers brunch once per week, as well as French and American cuisine and a stellar wine list. The self-service business center includes computers, secretarial services, high-speed Internet access and laptop stations. Complimentary passes to a large, 24-hour fitness facility with a pool, cardiovascular equipment, weight machines and free weights are provided. The hotel offers jogging maps of Mount Royal Park, towels and complimentary bottled water each morning in the lobby. The Ritz-Carlton Montreal boasts 12 banquet rooms and a large, elegant ballroom for events and weddings. Additionally, a manicurist, barber and masseuse are on site for pampering.
Guestrooms. Goose-down pillows and premium Frette linens dress feather-beds in all guestrooms. Marble baths include heat lamps, European-designer toiletries, lighted mirrors, fluffy bathrobes and scales. Rooms also feature minibars, high-speed Internet accessibility, three telephones, fax connections and large safe-deposit boxes.
Expert Tip. The Mount Royal Park, five blocks from the Ritz-Carlton Montreal, attracts ice skaters in the winter, joggers in the summer and on Sundays, many gather around the statue of George- Etienne Cartier to listen and dance to live, impromptu music.
