Montréal Holidays

Newly-renovated iconic city hotel.

With an unbeatable location in the centre of Montreal and a lively social scene, the Renaissance has a lot going for it. In town in the summer? The rooftop plunge pool is a godsend.

A convenient location and comfortable crash pad in Montreal if you plan to spend most of your time out and about. Mount Royal Park, galleries and museums, and Montreal’s underground network are within easy distance of the hotel.

Hotel Uville is a true celebration of Montreal’s cultural history. Each room in this boutique hotel tells a different story about the city, thanks to photos and films from the National Film Board of Canada.

Sit back and relax as you make your way to the best of Canada’s glittering cities the old-fashioned way, travelling in daylight to see the best of the scenery and disembarking to stay in beautiful hotels. Take in Toronto’s cosmopolitan neighbourhoods, Ottawa's charms, Montreal’s multitude of museums, and Quebec City’s World Heritage-listed old town. None of the railway journeys exceed five hours, giving you ample time to explore the cities.
