Montreal is one of the most visited cities in Cana Montreal is one of the most visited cities in Canada - and it’s not hard to see why 🇨🇦

If it’s your first time in the city, I’d recommend staying in the heart of the old town at the 5th best hotel in Canada (according to Condé Nast Traveler 2025) 😎

We spent one night at @hotelwilliamgray which is a unique luxury hotel that features classic rooms in a timeless style 🛌

Our room had a beautiful view of the Old Port of Montreal, and it was very quiet so we had a great sleep 💤

The hotel also features plenty of shared seating areas, a luxury spa, a fitness room and terrace, and a few dining options (including a rooftop bar/restaurant and a charming cafe) 🍹

Would you like to spend a night at this hotel in Montreal? ⚜️

If you’re a wine-enthusiast, you’ll be overwhelmed with the amount of wineries in NOTL to visit 🍷

For a unique experience, I’d recommend visiting @konzelmannwines 😍

In the fall, they offer their Fall Flights Outdoor experience where you sit around a private fire table while enjoying a sesonal flight of wine and a snack board 🍂

Would you like to do wine tasting in Niagara? 👍🏼

Kingston is one of the most historic cities in Can Kingston is one of the most historic cities in Canada, so it’s only right to stay in a beautiful historic building during your time in the city 😍

@belvederekingston is situated in a 19th century residence, and from here you can explore the waterfront, university campus, and downtown area very easily 🫶🏼

Everything from the entrance to the dining room, lounge, and bedroom are beautifully decorated, with plenty of original details still left in place. And their European-style breakfast is a great way to start the day too 🛌

This boutique hotel in Ontario is definitely not to be missed! 🇨🇦
