Ritz-Carlton Montreal: The Most Coveted Hotel in Canada for 2018

MONTREAL, Nov. 28, 2017 -- Ritz-Carlton Montreal, Canada’s most iconic hotel, is enough to make you want to fly north in January, as sited by Travel + Leisure while featuring Canada, 2017 Destination of the Year. In its 150th year, Canada has proven to be a destination on the rise. As Montreal celebrates its 375th birthday, this is the year to experience its one-of-a-kind cultural institutions, emerging neighborhoods and top culinary talents. Coupled with a favorable exchange rate, all this gives Americans new reason to cross the northern border and experience the wonders Montreal has to offer.

Ritz-Carlton Montreal is named Canada's most iconic hotel by Travel + Leisure in their recent feature on Canada, 2017 Destination of the Year.

Montreal continues to be on the radar this year, named most elegant city by a new global ranking released by the fashion retailer Zalando. The short list of 80 cities, which was topped by Paris, was reportedly winnowed down from “a list of 400 cities known for their affiliation with either fashion or architecture.” Zalando’s methodology combines various indicators of a city’s status as a fashion capital, a compelling urban environment and an affordable place for residents to lead an “elegant lifestyle.”
