The W Montreal has seen its fair share of coverage on this blog. Whether it’s taking a look at newly designed rooms or checking out the latest cocktail menus or spending time getting pampered during Grand Prix, there’s always a reason to pay the W a visit.

Monsieur B
There can be so much ground to cover during food festivals like Montreal à table that it can get overwhelming. Every year I make a list of the all the places I’d like to try (and this year there was 175 to choose from) and although I manage to make the most of the time…

High Société

Celebratory cocktails, clothing launches and Grand Prix parties are all made better with the elegant back drop that La Société provides.

Keeping Us Warm
Located only steps from St. Laurent in the in-between neighbourhood of Saint-Édouard is Les Cocottes, a charmingly eclectic restaurant that recently celebrated its first year in business.

Major League
