Montreal Staycation Guide

Are you sticking around Montreal for the holidays? Instead of envying
your south-flying friends, here are some ideas to make your staycation
feel like a fantastic voyage.

1. Hit Mont Royal for some snowy (fingers crossed!) exercise

2. Spend a day relaxing at Le
Spa Scandinave. We love that we can see snowy cars from the window
by the hot tub.

3. Treat yourself to a night in a hotel to really feel like youre
getting away. Hotel Place dArmes has a fab Christmas
package and we love Hotel
Nelligan for New Years.

4. Enjoy a classic afternoon tea at Birks
Café, The
Queen Elizabeth Hotel or Le
Maître Chocolatier.

5. Avoid the usual crowds at Montreals amazing attractions, including
the Big Bang exhibit at the MMFA.

6. Go see to The
Nutcracker by Les Grands Ballets Canadiens.

7. Stay in and curl up with great books, DVDs and wine (our
recommendations coming next week!)
