Hôtel Gault
Vieux-Montréal
COST: $$
The era of the minimalist design hotel may be drawing to a close, but this surprisingly affordable hotel shows no signs of losing its edge. There’s contemporary Italian furniture (Bertoia Bird chairs, Tolomeo lamps) and exposed brickwork in the 30 somber-hued rooms; heated bathroom floors punctuated by cast-iron columns dating from the building’s textile-factory days; and a colorful downstairs lounge. The overall effect is as current and exciting as when Gault first opened six years ago.
Insider Tip: With arguably the sunniest and most cheerful breakfast room in the city—even in the dark days of winter—you shouldn’t sleep through this one.
Room to Book: The Essential Top 5 room—especially in summer—for its terrace with views of the port.
