                <description><![CDATA[This isn't the cheapest B&amp;B option in this wonderful city (other than the weather, what's not to like about Montreal?), but it is certainly a great place to stay if you want to relax. <br><br>Kent and Stephane, the owners, are wonderful hosts. Their rooms are clean, and luxuriously comfortable. <br>Their location is handy for just about everything in this small but universally interesting city.<br>They are both straight- and gay-friendly.<br><br>But the best thing about staying at Absolument is their breakfasts, which are four-course, one hour affairs (only drawback is they don't leave much room for eating more during the day) served in your room anytime from 8-12. Jolly nice.<br><br>I love Montreal, and though I don't speak French, didn't find being in this largely francophone city intimidating: everyone was very friendly and accommodated my need to communicate in English with ease.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I've stayed at this place a few times, and always had a positive experience. It's moderately priced and in the downtown core. Rooms are generously sized, well maintained, and feature kitchenettes. The decor is simple but not in a distracting way. A particularly good place for families to stay. Close to the metro, lots of shopping, as well as culture and nightlife.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[New York loft-style boutique hotel: dark wood, glass, mirrors and earth tones. A little self-consciously smart, it does, however, make a refreshing change from the usual soulless north American hotel/motel fodder. It’s also saved by its location in the downtown district with great views over the city. Around £100 per night for a double with breakfast.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[For a taste of romantic Vieux Montreal, this is the place to stay. A converted 18th-century fur factory, the auberge’s huge rooms have thick stone walls, hardwood floors, marble baths and lots of antiques, and there’s an art gallery in the lobby. Atmospheric down to the freshly-baked croissants.<br>Rooms from C$115 a night]]></description>
