Inaugurated in 1912, the Ritz-Carlton Montréal has always been synonymous of refinement and elegance. Closed since June 2008, the hotel is undergoing a large-scale transformation ending summer of 2009. The central features of this project will be the total renovation of the hotel to meet the highest worldwide standards of luxury and comfort; as well as the expansion of the building to make room for the construction of luxury residences. Following this transformation, the hotel will have 130 luxury rooms and suites, 35 condo-residences and 15 condo-suites.
