St. Paul Hotel

Frommer's Review

The St. Paul has been a star to design and architecture aficionados since its 2001 opening; it ranks among the most worthwhile of old buildings converted to hotels. Minimalism pervades, with simple lines and muted tones, and most of the guests appear as trim as the surroundings. Hallways are hushed and dark (truth be told, they border on pitch black) and open into bright rooms with furnishings in various cream shades. This being Canada, pops of texture come from pelt rugs. In the bathroom, the high design continues: Marble sinks are square, and clear plastic cubes cover the toiletries. Many rooms face Vieux-Montréal's less touristed far western edge, with its mixture of stone and brick buildings midconversion into modern condos and office spaces. The hotel's splashy restaurant was renovated in 2007 and reopened as Vauvert, with main courses ranging from C$19 to C$42 (£9.50-£21).
