Airbnbs in Old Montreal

Old Montreal industrial loft / $135 per night

Loft downtown Montreal
$750 / night

Have a unique experience in this New York style loft full of character with tall ceilings, designer retro-modern furniture and a beautiful courtyard. The apartment is located inside a graded historical building that used to be the headquarters of a paper company (not Dunder Mifflin, I assure you).
