This historic landmark is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Plateau Mont-Royal. But Palestre Nationale isn't the only highlight in the area. Notre Dame Basilica, Saint Joseph's Oratory, and Bell Centre are some other worthwhile sights nearby.

8/10 Very Good! (4 reviews)

We really liked the apartment, it was nice and clean and comfortable. The rooftop terrace was a nice addition. We would definitely stay there again. One inconvenience was that the electrical outlet in the bathroom didn’t work.
