MONTREAL, QC--(Marketwired - Jan 19, 2016) - Ritz-Carlton Montreal is rolling out a guest-favourite package this winter, "The Colder the Better." Back by popular demand, " The Colder the Better " is available at the downtown Montreal hotel for all luxury suites with fireplaces, where guests automatically save a percentage off their room rate based on the temperature outside at check-in -- including the wind-chill factor -- when below zero. Minus 25 degrees Celsius upon check-in? Save 25 percent off a suite. If the mercury dips further, save even more. The package is set to be a sure-fire hit with travellers, given the low Canadian dollar and upward trend of the "staycation."
With winter temperatures in Montreal typically hovering around minus 10 Celsius, "The Colder the Better" package at Ritz-Carlton Montreal equips guests with everything needed for a cozy night indoors. Our boutique hotel package includes: suite accommodations with fireplace; hot chocolate, herbal tea or a latte by the fire; chocolate-flavoured marshmallows and spiced Speculoos cookies; cocktails at Maison Boulud ; breakfast at Maison Boulud; complimentary parking; complimentary late checkout; plus, a reduced room rate based on the below-zero temperature outside on the day of arrival. The package is available until April 30, 2016, and priced from $765 per night based on single occupancy, and from $790 per night based on double occupancy.
One of only four hotels designed by César Ritz himself and the first in the world to combine the Ritz and Carlton designations, Ritz-Carlton Montreal has mastered the Canadian winter retreat since opening its doors in 1912. The hotel was named "Top City Hotel in Canada" in Travel + Leisure's 2015 World's Best Awards. It remains at the social heart of the city, attracting discerning guests from Canada and around the world.
