Gingerbread Manor

Montréal

LoginSave

The hosts give a warm welcome at this charming B&B near leafy Carré St-Louis. The house itself is a stately three-story town house built in 1885 with bay windows, ornamental details and an attached carriage house. The elegant rooms – five in all – are uniquely furnished (only one has a private bath, the others share).

The best rooms have king-size beds and a bay window, but all have decent light. Hot cooked breakfasts (which may include banana-walnut pancakes, French toast and fruit salad or croissants) are a bonus.
