Hotel Opening Rates :: The Opus Montreal

Where: 10 Sherbrooke Street, Montreal, QC, Canada, H2X 4C9

The people behind the Opus Hotel in Vancouver have just announced a new property, The Opus Montreal which is now open. (Note: It was formerly the Hotel Godin.) And to celebrate the opening, the hotel is offering 10 percent off hotel rooms that are booked through the website, along with complimentary parking.

We found a standard type room, which is called Privilege and is about 325-350 square feet, for $224 for tonight. You can also choose from the Junior Suites, Executive Suites, Diplomatic Suites and the Presidential Suite which is a two-story penthouse with killer views (pictured above.)

The rooms have very modern minimalist design and it seems as if no expense was spare on the bathrooms. Most rooms have either a deep soaking tub or a glass walled 'rain shower' or both. As far as high-tech amenities, all rooms at the hotel feature 27-inch LCD TVs, high-speed internet and a work desk with ergonomic chair. There's also 24-hour room service and your cats and dogs are allowed for a fee.

Later this month, the hotel will unveil its lounge which is described as:

The Yabu-Pushelberg design includes dramatic glowing light-strip paneling, a stylish mezzanine, steel sculptures by artist Scott Eunson and a 30 foot Cardosa marble bar.

Certain to appeal to seasoned travelers and discerning local clientele alike, its heated outdoor terrace will be a three-season venue while the indoor space will be a sought-after year round destination.

Additionally, the hotel plans to open its 9000 square foot restaurant fronting Sherbrooke Street. But the concept and identity are "under tight wraps" (i.e. still no plans) so you'll have to wait until spring 2008 to see what comes of this space.
