Old Montreal

Overlapping past and future, Old Montreal epitomizes the charms of Montreal living. As the core of business and trade, the Old Montreal is pivotal to the city’s economic growth, feeding off of the vibrant mood of its restaurants, shops, cafés, art galleries and high end boutiques, all populated by refined urbanites.


With poetic authenticity, Old Montreal’s deeply European soul continues to shine in century-old buildings, cobble stone streets and a port that has witnessed the rise of a whole continent. The Bonsecours Market (home to the Quebec Council of Arts and Crafts), the renowned Notre-Dame Basilica, Pointe-à-Callière and its famous museum, City Hall and the popular Jacques-Cartier Square all define Old Montreal’s outstanding neighbourhood life, with its unique atmosphere laced with tradition along with a fully embraced modernity.
