Palestre Nationale definitely leaves a lasting impression. This grand, old structure is an absolute must for traveling history lovers.

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.

10/10 Exceptional! (3 reviews)

My mother and I visited for a house hunting trip and stayed several days at this property! Check in instructions were easy to follow and we found our room in perfect condition -- clean, well decorated, and comfortable. I communicated with the host prior to the trip and found her extremely patient and polite, so I knew we were in good hands. The location could not be better -- surrounded by shops and restaurants, in the heart of the nightlife, and within easy walking distance of the metro! I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
