@megmac@social.treehouse.systems Montréal is quite dense. If you want to stay where the hotels are, you'll ultimately be near tourist traps - either downtown or Old Port. I would recommend the Old Port because that's the most European/old style part. The good news is that you'll be near the metro's orange line and that can get you quickly to the Plateau and Mile-end neighbourhoods where a lot of foodie things are found. I'd also recommend Little Italy/Petite-Patrie which are just a bit further up St-Laurent Blvd.

@megmac@social.treehouse.systems If you're used to walking, you can take St-Laurent Blvd (which is Main Street Montréal) or St-Denis St from the Old Port all the way up to Marché Jean-Talon (takes about 1.5 hours) and you'll pass through a ton of interesting areas. I do it often.

@justinlachance@mastodon.social @megmac@social.treehouse.systems indeed Old Port is where you will likely enjoy yourself the most. However, it can get noisy at night. At least it used to, I have stopped going years ago. Are you looking for cheap but clean 2 star hotels? or high end 4 stars and more?
