What a find! A Victorian treasure! Exquisite!
Words fail me to describe this authentic Victorian heritage delight. Denis purchased two houses joined together. The houses formerly were a bordello He has meticulously and expensively refurbished these two houses. The magnificent sitting rooms were furnished with period, comfortable and most attractive Victorian furniture. The tables are of beautiful quality wood. The chandeliers and woodwork on the walls are noteworthy.
The dining area holds the widest table I have ever seen. The sculptured wood buffet is amazing.
The snooker table is available to all guests. Morning breakfast featured fresh squeezed orange juice and fresh fruit. The bread was of the finest quality. Home made jam was delicious. Pastries, granola and yogurt were all plentiful. You are also welcome to make a cup of coffee or tea during the day. Fresh fruit is left in a large antique bowl in the kitchen. Check out the natural brick walls in the kitchen.
The paintings on the wall will keep you interested throughout your stay.
This is a magical house. I was staying in one house and my family in the other. There was no interior door. How do you go to the other side of the house without going outside? Touch the fish on the mantelpiece. A large portion of the wall with a giant portrait opens and you step inside to the other part of the house. On the other side a large armoire opens when you touch that fireplace. I will never forget this charming house.
Even the halls are covered with ornate rugs and exquisite old tables and chairs.
The bedroom furniture was the finest furniture of carved wood. It literally took my breath away. The bedrooms have antique tables and chairs. Each room has a TV as well as a CD player. A small fridge allows you to keep water or wine chilled. My bedroom had five oriental rugs. An actual diary from the daughter of the original owner is fascinating reading.
The plumbing is modern in a Victorian setting. How quaint! How functional!
Denis is the most charming owner. He regaled us with stories of his refurbishing. He is charming with great wit. He is a master of detail. Check the ceiling and the wall detail.
We didn’t want to leave the residence. It is central. It is luxurious. Check it out at www.MontrealBedAnd Breakfast.ca or
We were in Montreal for the Jazz Festival. We were able to walk to all the performances. We even walked to Old Town and back. We walked to the top of the mountain. This premise offered all the advantages of a first class stay. We were thrilled and can’t wait to go back. If visiting Montreal this is a must stay. Even if you are not planning a current trip check the web. We were all thrilled that we had discovered this trip into the past
