neighbourhoods.The Plateau : Located to the east of Mount Royal

the sprawling Lafontaine park."

"My first idea which I came up with this summer was to be a
tourist. That was how I came to spend four nights at the
International Jazz de Montréal. My wife Pamela, I stayed at a
charming inn, Auberge de La Fontaine, accross the street from
Lafontaine park, starting each day in a glassed - in cafe
overlooking park. "

Margaret Loftus,Washington Flyer, August 2003
For locals in the know, a stretch of Montreal known as the Plateau
has become the most alluring part of town. keep it to yourself..
While the Plateau overflows with fromage and groovy jeans, one
thing it lacks is a lot of lodging. There are a handful of B&Bs
and Auberge de La Fontaine, a cosy and quiet inn fashioned out of a
couple of Victorian row houses."

Ingrid Peritz, The Globe and Mail, Toronto, July
2003
"Flirting with Montreal. A stroll though "the Plateau", a district
made famous by playwright Michel Tremblay, will give you a taste of
an authentic, untouristed slice of Montreal as it is lived by some
of its more bohemian residents. Wander down side streets to see
signature Montreal street-scapes with their spiral staircases.Hotel
heaven, in the Plateau area, a stylish and charming option in the
Auberge de La Fontaine."

North American Inns/ B&B summer 2003
"Auberge de La Fontaine is a Québec original in the heart of
Montréal's most international neighbourhood, le Plateau
Mont-Royal, an eclectic Soho-style collection of world-beat
cafés, funky boutiques and modern art galleries. The Auberge
is pleasant, moderately-priced alternative to a large hotel, and
only a short walk from downtown Montréal. Tha inn itself, on a
leafy, residental stret facing Parc LaFontaine, one of the city's
largest green spaces, is sheltered from Le Plateau's busy fray.
Auberge de La Fontaine operates in two connected Victorian
greystones dating back almost 100 years. A silver cupola attests to
historic authenticity and adds a rather royal air, but the
Victorian era ends there."

living in the countrystill hanker after the museums, galleries,
theaters and restaurants of the city, and Montreal has them all in
abundance, with added bonus of its embedded french culture.

the dollar by half. If you go, Auberge de La Fontaine on Rachel
