Discover downtown Montreal

Downtown Montreal's Golden Square Mile began as the city's most exclusive neighborhood. Its beautifully preserved Victorian mansions were the early 19th-century mountainside playgrounds of Montreal's cultural and financial elite. 

Owing to the Victorian era’s eclectic mix of architectural styles, its public buildings are a mix of revival styles, including Neo-Classical, Neo-Gothic, Romanesque, and a dash of Art Nouveau. Today, the neighbourhood glitters as an exciting and vibrant lifestyle destination with world-class cultural gems, fashionable shopping and high-end restaurants and cafés.    

At the epicentre of it all, you will find Hotel Le Cantlie Suites. Located on Sherbrooke Street, the city’s main thoroughfare, we’re steps from just about everything you want to see or experience. And with a bus stop right out front and the Peel metro station within a three-minute walk, we make it easy to move about the city like a local. 

We're tucked among three of the city's best museums – the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the Redpath Museum, and the McCord Stewart Museum. Within one block, guests can visit the campus of McGill University or find a relaxing urban oasis in Mount Royal Park, considered the "Central Park of Montreal." Montreal's Underground City is a 12-square-kilometre underground network of shops, restaurants, and entertainment destinations for those who want to browse, shop, or dine away from Montreal's hot summers and freezing winters. For those who prefer to stay above ground, the famous restaurants, clubs and cafés of Peel Street and Crescent Street draw stylish night owls from all over Montreal.
