Montreal Hotels for New Years

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Looking for a hotel in Montreal this new years? Good luck. Ok, just kidding. However if you are looking at montreal hotels for new years there are several things one needs to consider:

  1. Rates are inflated: expect to pay over $100 a night for a decent hotel, good 4 stars start at $150+
  2. They sell out Quick: book now not later, don’t wait for your friends to book by the time they are in it might be too late
  3. Minimum stays: a lot of the hotels require a minimum of 2 nights stay
  4. Hotels charge occupancy fee’s if there are more than 2 people in the room, min $20 extra per person.
  5. Do your homework: often that $70 a night hotel you found will require a $15 cab ride every time you want to go somewhere or even worse isnt even in downtown Montreal!
  6. Look for package deals. I know Montreal VIP offers some of the best hotels for new years at good prices
  7. Ask about security guards, some of the big tour operators like breakaway tours have security guards on each of the floors. Talk about a buzz kill…
  8. HAVE FUN! its NYE! Get Drunk!
