Le Petit Hôtel

Old Montréal


Set in a 19th-century building, Le Petit Hôtel uses 'small', 'medium', 'large' and 'extra large' to describe its four room classes – identical save for the size. Owned by the same group as the Hôtel Place d’Armes, rooms boast a sleek, contemporary design (polished wood floors, atmospheric lighting and goose-down comforters), while showcasing the old stone walls in some rooms.

You’ll also find iPod docking stations, free bike hire and dashes of color – orange – that give a creative zing to the overall look. There’s a small spa here and an enticing little cafe, with down-tempo beats, on the ground floor.
