Depends what you are into.

If you like goth/punk/industrial check out Fous Funes Electronique(something like that) on St. Catherines. I loved that place.

AznRx8 · 12-27-2004, 12:24 PM

Well it really depends on you where to visit. But all I can say is that it's getting quite cold over here...

slapass · 12-27-2004, 12:27 PM

well i am coming from MN so cold is no big deal. I heard news year can be off the hook so looking froward to that. Just getting out of here for several days with a friend. So bar hpooing and site seeing it is. I have never been there.

sixxxthsense · 12-27-2004, 12:42 PM

I'm heading up there also this Thursday!

We ar staying @ La Apartman,
the reason we chose this hotel is cuz
there is no security bugging you and
everyone is really freinldy there.
+ ITs so fucking cheap i could affort to rent it every day for a month no problem!

We havent' decided where we going for NYE but i'm sure itll be a blast like the last couple of years!

juicyjuice · 12-27-2004, 12:43 PM

ok hotel with the pool on the roof- hotel de la montagne.

weather- wont be so bad for new years eve, its supposed to be 4 degrees celsius. much better than the -46 we saw last week.

As for where to party, the city is insane on new years eve. Tell me a bit more about what you like and i can help you out. are you looking for R&B/hip hop? a chic supperclub? rock n roll?

sixxxthsense · 12-27-2004, 12:45 PM

here is an NYE party we might hit up:

Sander Kleinenberg, DJ Dan, Max Graham @ Bell Center, Montreal, 31 December

slapass · 12-27-2004, 12:48 PM

awesoem thanks. Isn't there like a street that is hopping on new years? googling hotels as we speak.

Series · 12-27-2004, 12:48 PM

Yeah, downtown Montreal is cool. I've stayed at the Delta Hotel each time I've been there and it was fine. You might also want to check out / stay at the casino.

RawAlex · 12-27-2004, 01:34 PM

W hotel is hot, but it isn't right where the action is. It is central to many things, but you do have to go a bit. It is about 2 blocks further east than the hotel for the Cybernetexpos in the past.

Montreal for new years is cool, plenty of good parties and such. Pick your poison, I am sure you can find it - anything from quiet evening, strip clubs, to raves and more. Old Montreal is a bit quiet this time of year, but the clubs on Cresent, St Catherine, and such will all be hopping. Plus there are a number of special raves and dance parties all over town.

Awesome! Exactly what i was looking for.

psyko514 · 12-27-2004, 02:04 PM

I'd recommend either the W Hotel or Hotel Godin. Both are brand new and really beautiful.

As for parties, you can come to my place ;)

Sixxxthsense, good luck getting passes for any of the big NYE parties, especially Celebration at the Bell Centre. If any are still available, you'll be paying like $70 a person.

GTS Mark · 12-27-2004, 03:20 PM

Awww sheeit dude, Montreal is awesome for new years. It's fucking cold as hell but what a great fucking time it is!

You will have a blast! Stay down by Crescent Street and you can't go wrong!

Either of these by St Catherines? or name a hotel that is? Price is not really a big deal. But i get in on new years so I want to be close after the flight.

Hotel Godin is on the corner of Sherbrooke and St-Laurent. St-Laurent is the main street of Montreal. You'd be within walking distance of all the swanky clubs, restaurants and bistros. Ste-Catherine St is a 5 min walk (downhill) from Sherbrooke.

The W is on St-Antoine and McGill in Old Montreal. Ste-Catherine is a 10 min walk uphill.

If you're planning on partying in the Crescent/Ste-Catherine area, the closest hotels are:

Marriott Chateau Champlain (4 stars) - about 3 blocks from Crescent/Ste-C
Le Centre Sheraton Hotel (4 stars) - 2 blocks from Crescent/Ste-C
Novotel (3 stars) - 2/3 blocks from Crescent/Ste-C
Fairmont Queen Elizabeth (4 stars) - about 5-6 blocks from Crescent/Ste-C
Quality Inn (2 stars) - on Crescent, one block below Ste-C
Chateau Royal (2.5 stars) - on the corner of Crescent/Ste-C

Just so you know, Ste-Catherine St is comparable to Queen St. It's mostly a shopping street. Crescent St between Ste-Catherine and Sherbrooke as well as St-Laurent/Sherbrooke up to St-Laurent/Rachel are comparable to the club district around Richmond/Peter in downtown Toronto.

There's only one good hotel in Montreal IMO and it is the Saint-James

No problem! Enjoy your stay!!

And yeah, the Saint James is awesome, but it's far from the area he wants to party at. It's 2 blocks farther than the W.

It's also about a million dollars a night... hehe... when the Rolling Stones were in town, they rented out the whole place!
