MONTREAL, May 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Knightstone Hotel Group and Urgo Hotels Canada are proud to announce the official opening of the AC Hotel Old Montreal, a sophisticated property where European elegance meets the rich heritage of Old Montreal.
Nestled in one of Canada's most iconic and historic neighborhoods, this new address invites travelers to enjoy a unique experience combining contemporary comfort with timeless charm. Just steps from the Notre-Dame Basilica, Place d'Armes, and the Saint Lawrence River, AC Hotel Old Montreal boasts a prime location that reflects the city's vibrant cultural soul.

A Blend of Modern Design and Historic Charm
With 124 spacious rooms and suites, the hotel embodies AC Hotels' philosophy: sleek design, harmonious lines, and a refined ambiance crafted for today's traveler. Spanish inspiration flows through every space, where minimalism blends with noble materials and upscale amenities. Guests are welcomed into a soothing and elegant atmosphere from the moment they arrive. In a nod to the brand's Mediterranean heritage, lavender features prominently in the sensory experience of the guest rooms.
Gastronomy is infused with Spanish flair. Breakfast features the signature Cazuela — a savory mix of eggs, prosciutto, and Manchego cheese. At the bar, guests will find signature tapas like Marcona almonds and Spanish tortilla. Each bite offers a taste of the Mediterranean, complemented by a carefully curated wine list and artisanal cocktails.
"We want every dish to evoke the true essence of the Mediterranean — in a spirit of simplicity and conviviality," says Marc Casolino, Executive Chef of the AC Old Montreal Restaurant & Bar, and also at the helm of Italian restaurant Il Soffio. "Our menu draws on the authenticity of Spanish flavors while adding a modern, local twist."
