Featured Hotels
Where to stay in Montreal
The Ritz-Carlton, Montreal
Montreal, Quebec
Two pets per room, each to 22.6 kg, on a flat $150 non-refundable fee per stay — no cleaning charge published, where the Toronto Ritz-Carlton lists $150–450. Quebec closes every indoor dining room to pet dogs, so Maison Boulud and tea at the Palm Court are out, and nothing is published about leaving a dog alone.

Four Seasons Hotel Montreal
Montreal, Quebec
The hotel publishes no pet policy at all. A 2019 Four Seasons release says dogs and cats to 25 lb; three booking sites say 20 lb; every version is fee-free. Quebec closes Marcus's indoor rooms to pet dogs, and its third-floor terrace needs the restaurant's own yes. Confirm the limit with the hotel.
