Decent hotel in old Montreal near the waterfront

[Redlyne_mr2]

As the topic says, need someone who's familiar with this area. Looking for a hotel to stay at in old Montreal, as close to the waterfront as possible.
thanks

it's over-priced in old Mtl

Just go to a high rise d/t (delta) and you will be able to see the water with a 5-10 min walk to the old port / old Mtl.

oh ok cool thats good to know I don't mind the walk.. reason it has to be close is my parents are going to be down there with our boat so Im going to have to walk or take a cab to the waterfront to go meet them.

I was put up here last year for a photo shoot and it was awesome!

It's like a loft appt. Prices are actually pretty reasonable.

The W Hotel is very nice. It is about a five minute walk from the water and well situated otherwise. The bar is decent on Wed/Thurs as well as weekends and the service is great.

The St. James is a bit closer to the water but pricey.

If youre into art the gallery museum is pretty cool, restaurants downtown are awesome. China town is small but entertaining, St. Catherines street has tons of shopping. Lots of cool shoe stores for your wife, park somewhere and take the subway everywhere.

-Casino is a MUST!!
-Anywhere in central d/t or the Old Port is pretty awsome.
-Check out LaRonde (Six flags) if you have a whole day to spend.
-Expo 67
-Science Center
-Art museum is pretty cool aswell (for art )
-There are always events and free shows going on downtown during the summer!!! Don't know when Jazz-Fest starts but you should definaly check that shit out!!
-If you have time you can also head up north to Mont-Saint-Sauveur for waterslides or even Mont Tremblant for mountain biking, golf etc.

Enjoy your trip, listing all this stuff make's me wanna go home

ottawa and hull aren't that far away. Military museum in Hull is amazing. There is a huge HUGE room with hundreds of military vehicules that you probably never saw in your life. It's like an hour and a half from Montreal worth the drive.

Go to Cote-St-Luc BBQ for chicken...there's one at the end of Saint Catherine I think and one in the West Islan (Blvd des Sources)...

If you want Pizza...TASTY FOOD PIZZA, look it up...it's the best I've had and I love my pizza...It's on Decarie near Jean-Talon.

I agree..I love Ottawa just as much as Montreal. Museum of Civilization is a favourite, as well as the National Gallery.
Montreal..it's all good.

Go see the real Mount Royal, Museum of Archaeology and History.

El Zaziummm for mexican food..it's in Mont Royal.

If you have time....and I am not religious...but this is an amazing place Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré. There are some very beautiful churches in Montreal.
