An exquisite example of Second Empire architecture, this Montreal hotel appeals to vacationers looking for a refined and serene atmosphere. Both the lobby and entrance hall are furnished in rich hues, and a restored frieze ornaments the ceiling. An espresso bar, upholstered furniture, and windows overlooking the old banking district entice guests to linger, as does the impressive floor-to-ceiling library adjacent to the lobby. Guests can browse for books in the grand library, play a board game in the splendid French Renaissance setting of Le Petit Salon, or unwind with a cocktail or tea in the Library Lounge. Wireless Internet access is available throughout the hotel
