My boyfriend and I stayed at Auberge de la Place Royal for two nights and we absolutely loved it. It is right in the heart of Old Montreal and so many lovely bars and restaurants are within walking distance, as is the metro. The hotel is beautiful and warm, and our room welcomed us with a little chalkboard on the door with my name written on it. It felt romantic and cozy with the rustic furniture and exposed brick and the room even had a corkscrew and little cafe table! The wifi worked perfectly (which was great as our American cell phones didn't have service). Note: complimentary coffee was remarkably delicious.
