December is the month of parties office, drunken dinners at the restaurant with colleagues and festive evenings that stretch until dawn. Why not combine business with pleasure and, rather than driving after having a drink, choose to spend the night in a hotel in town? A way to play the tourist in his own city and to decompress the time of a short stay in a beautiful establishment!
Sheraton Laval: a haven of peace close to the bustle of the city
A stone’s throw from downtown Laval and its various restaurants, bars and nightclubs, and near highways 15 and 44, is the brand new Sheraton de Laval, which has just undergone a real facelift. A good reason to come and admire this ultramodern hotel in the heart of the action. An investment of over $20 million has gone into giving the rooms all the comfort and luxury one could dream of to really unwind. We take the opportunity to have lunch the next morning at the hotel’s new and very good restaurant, La Piazza, which stands out for its unique design. For a small snack before departure, we have a good salami and provolone sandwich and an espresso at the La Spesa gourmet stop. It is also the ideal place to buy very beautiful gourmet gifts. Other interesting attractions include a gym, a superb swimming pool and a hot tub located in the basement. Then, to make the most of your stay, plan a relaxing treatment at the Amerispa, which is adjacent to the hotel.
Hotel Nelligan: a pure Montreal experience
A stay in the heart of Old Montreal is a great gift to offer yourself to enjoy the attractions of this district! Rather than looking for parking — an almost impossible mission in this sector of the city — we take the metro and get off at the Place-d’Armes station. A five-minute walk separates your accommodation for the night from your means of transport to return home, in complete peace of mind! This historic boutique hotel will delight night owls, since the hotel is located near several bars, restaurants and nightclubs in the area. Then, to recover from our emotions of the day before, we have lunch at the Nelli café, located on the ground floor of the hotel. You can enjoy an excellent latte prepared by one of the master baristas on site, accompanied by a hearty brunch made up of local products. This year, the Corner Collection company, owner of this hotel, the Place-d’Armes and several restaurants in Old Montreal, is offering gift certificates for festive events, hotel nights, dinners and brunches in gift for the holiday season. Kill two birds with one stone: stay in this historical hotel with its unique charm and leave with a present to offer for Christmas!
Hotel Le Bonne Entente: luxury a few steps away
This is the perfect place to get a good night’s sleep after your evening. This magnificent hotel has never been so topical, since the city of Sainte-Foy has experienced impressive growth with its new restaurants, its very popular District Gourmet and its new corporate offices. Party-goers in the area will therefore find the oasis of tranquility they need to unwind nearby. Large renovated rooms with comfortable beds, whirlpool baths in the suites to relax in, friendly service and a good table to eat, what more could you hope for? There’s even a heated outdoor pool open late into the evening for taking it easy before slipping under the sheets. And if you are still looking for a place to celebrate with friends or colleagues, Le Bonne Entente will soon be offering dinners outside under illuminated domes. A partnership with the champagne brand Laurent Perrier will allow you to come and enjoy a glass of bubbles accompanied by a meal paired with champagne, all under the stars. This initiative will continue until the end of winter.
Fairmont Le Château Frontenac: for a royal night
Just because we’re looking for a place to sleep doesn’t mean we have to give up on the quality of our hotel; especially if you want to sleep the sleep of the just! This historic hotel in Old Quebec is located in the heart of the action, in the middle of the nation’s capital’s most dynamic district, where bars, restaurants and nightlife are nearby. Treat yourself to the royal treatment during the month of December and take advantage of promotional packages that allow you to discover the magic of the Holidays at the Château. You will discover the entrance hall all lit up and transformed into an enchanted forest with its popular Avenue of Trees of Hope. For nine years now, the most beautiful conifers have been decorated by generous companies in the region, thanks to which funds have been raised and donated to the Fondation du CHU de Québec. The Christmas package allows you to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the Holidays and an exceptional night in one of the cozy rooms, breakfast included, for a well-deserved moment of relaxation. The hotel also offers several festive options which are listed on its website.
