Finally, you manage to match vacation dates and the two of you escape. You say goodbye to the mundane race between working, parenting and your daily activities and say hello to tender moments, relaxation, hearty meals, and the historic district of Old Montreal.
The Saint-Sulpice Hôtel Montréal offers you a blissful bubble for two. Time stands still with their Absolute Wellness package that lets you enjoy the luxury of the hotel and the tranquillity of the Scandinave Spa. And don’t miss the new gourmet menu at the Sinclair Restaurant, located in the heart of the hotel gardens.
4-star hotel, 5-star service
Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, the Saint-Sulpice offers 108 prestigious suites. Freshly renovated, still in keeping with the character of Old Montreal, this authentic hotel steeped in history sets itself apart by its contemporary classic style.
Behind its imposing, European-inspired stone façade hides a warmly decorated lobby inviting you to relax. It’s the ideal place to receive the royal treatment. As Karin Janssen, Marketing and Media Director, explains: “In our 4-star hotel, we offer you personalized, 5-star service.” As soon as you arrive, you’ll notice that the staff takes care of everything and pays the utmost attention to your needs.
On the way to your Superior Suite, admire the magnificent paintings of Quebec designer and artist Jean-Claude Poitras. Your tastefully decorated suite has everything you need to make your stay memorable, including a cozy, king-size bed, a fully functional kitchenette, a luxurious bathroom and a living room. From the large windows, take a break and observe the passers-by or the interior gardens. As a little bonus, the late departure included in your package lets you enjoy the suite until 3 p.m.!
If you’re looking for the treasures of Old Montreal, Chief Concierge and Clefs d’Or member Alain Ethier is the man for the job. Known as a “superstar of the hospitality industry,” he’ll be glad to help you discover the highlights of the area, including the Scandinave Spa Vieux-Montréal, located two minutes’ walk from the hotel.
Love, served on a big platter
Naturally lit by skylights and floor-to-ceiling windows, the Sinclair Restaurant impels you to enjoy a romantic tête-à-tête. You’re in the heart of Old Montréal, yet only the sound of birds reaches your ears.
The Sinclair’s gourmet menu has what it takes to make you blush. Awaiting you are appetizing dishes whose flavours melt in your mouth, and an impressive Della Luce Vite wine list, for which the restaurant is an ambassador.
In the morning, enjoy the healthy breakfast included in your package. In the evening, the terrace in the heart of the hotel gardens is the ideal, intimate spot to sip a drink together, bathed in the light of a few lanterns.
Escape together
To start the day off right, nothing beats a hydrotherapy session. As you step outside the hotel, the sweet scent of eucalyptus envelops Saint Sulpice Street, giving you a soothing sensation. Imagine when you get there!
At Scandinave Spa Vieux-Montréal, you’re entitled to a warm and attentive welcome, just like your experience at Le Saint-Sulpice. Lockers, bathrobes, towels and sandals are provided. You need not even carry shampoo or soap since Oneka products are available. Just bring your bathing suit. Here, everything leads you toward deep relaxation, far from the worries of everyday life.
The sound of the falls and the scent of eucalyptus emanating from the steam bath encourage you to let go. Settle into the hydrojet bath and think of nothing at all.
To take full advantage of the hydrotherapy cycle, face your fear of cold baths. You’ll see—the feeling of lightness that follows will astound you. Then, make yourself comfortable in one of the relaxation areas. Why not take a nap on the heated bench adjacent to the falls?
Should you feel the need to quench your thirst while relaxing, the Scandinave Spa now offers healthy smoothies, lovingly prepared with fresh ingredients. And to satisfy your cravings, nuts and fruit are offered free of charge.
Now you’re all set to enjoy a one-hour Swedish massage; an hour to relax any remaining sore muscles.
As a finale, head to the hot tub, where all noise fades away under the resonance of the powerful falls. In silence, let your bodies be gently rocked by the waves of warm water enveloping you.
You’re anchored in the present moment. With your eyes closed, you reach out and touch hands, as the pressure of the waterfall releases any tension you may have. You’ve never felt so connected.
