I second the recommendation for the "vieux port" area of Montréal as well - the old port. This is also called the "old city". It's the heart of Montréal, near the waterway - absolutely beautiful part of the city. Cafés, bars everywhere, very European feel. It's not cheap though.

My fave hotels are the Chateau Versailles or the Hotel Vieux-Port. Both are downtown, both cost around $130 CDN (so about $80 US) but well worth it, IMHO.

Enjoy your stay!

P.S. Not that I would have any direct experience of course, but I hear the girls found in establishments along St. Catherine's street are second to none...

Oh, I miss my university days...
