The Bar/Lounge at Auberge du Vieux-Port

"- Leslie Brokaw, Erin Trahan, Matthew Barber"

"Travelers may want to compare rates with LHotel Montreal, another Old Montreal property housed in a 19th-century structure, but with a hip lobby bar, small gym, and a collection of contemporary art, including works by Botero and Warhol"

"Despite being located smack-dab in Touristville, the auberge is blissfully devoid of all tackiness and cheese unless it comes on a platter at Narcisse, the hotel's wine bar"

"Camera-toting tourists on horse and carriages clip-clop past by day, while at night the streets buzz with the city’s fashionable inhabitants chatting in French and English on their way to visit the latest bar or restaurant"

"Air-conditioning, minibars, phones, easy-to-spot sprinklers, one king, queen or two double beds, and baths with whirlpool tubs are standard"
