Lodging in Montreal

There are plenty of hotels in downtown Montreal and Old Montreal, catering to all tastes. As usual, you must make your own reservations.

For luxury hotels, the Hyatt Centric Montreal and the InterContinental Hotel, rates are around $370 per night. There are other, more affordable options; it's up to you to find what suits you best.

Parking

For members and guests arriving by car, please note that parking can be quite difficult around the chapel. Construction may also be underway, and some streets may be difficult to access.

Unless your hotel is within walking distance, a taxi is a good transportation option.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact Robert Boily, Secretary General.
