MONTREAL, May 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A year ago, during the month of May, while Montreal was proudly displaying its virtues and celebrating the city’s 375th birthday, the venerable George Stephen House was given new life and opened as a hotel unique in its class: Le Mount Stephen.
Since then, Montreal elected its first female mayor, the city achieved unprecedented financial growth, and Le Mount Stephen has brilliantly distinguished itself in the hotel landscape of the city. Ranked in the top-ten of Montreal's 165 Trip Advisor-ranked hotels, as well as at the top of the Medallia customer experience platform, Le Mount Stephen has proven more than worthy of its five-star (awarded by the CITQ) rating.
According to Tidan Hospitality and Real Estate Group, Le Mount Stephen’s Montreal-based owner, the excitement surrounding the hotel’s inauguration was a preamble to what has turned out to be a successful year of not only reaching, but exceeding its recognition and financial targets.
"We are pleased to know that travelers appreciate the characteristics that make Le Mount Stephen so unique," said Mike Yuval and Jack Sofer, co-founders of Tidan. “Our customers particularly appreciate the exquisite blend of old and new."
A prestigious address that features a designated heritage site, contemporary luxury comfort, and world-class personalized service; this is Le Mount Stephen, one of the few Canadian hotels recognized by the Leading Hotels of the World.
"Le Mount Stephen seamlessly blends today's Montreal with its rich history, offering guests a truly unique experience in the heart of Golden Square Mile," said Deniz Omurgonulsen, vice-president of membership, The Leading Hotels of the World. “This prestigious member of our collection embodies the exceptional service and uncommon character that our curious travelers seek.”
For the past year, the hotel has attracted a prestigious, primarily North American clientele, visiting Montreal for both business and leisure. With ninety guest rooms, nine of which are equipped for guests with reduced mobility, the hotel boasts sixty-nine deluxe rooms, sixteen suites, four sky lofts and one spectacular royal suite measuring five-thousand square feet. The property features a spa, fitness centre, ballroom and several meeting rooms. Additionally it hosts the famous Bar George restaurant which is managed by Oliver & Bonacini.
To mark its first anniversary this spring, Le Mount Stephen is offering a "first anniversary" package for a limited period. For more information on this package or other promotions, or to learn more about the hotel, please visit www.lemountstephen.com.
About Le Mount Stephen Hotel:
Located at 1440 Drummond Street, in the heart of the prestigious "Golden Mile" in downtown Montreal, Le Mount Stephen opened in the spring of 2017 in conjunction with the city’s 375th anniversary. Owned by Tidan Hotel and Real Estate Group, this flagship property of the Quebec hotel industry is one of the few Canadian hotels to feature in the Leading Hotels of the World. This luxury hotel with its distinctive character combines a new, ultra-contemporary building of 11 floors and 90 rooms and suites with George Stephen House, and remains a historical monument that harmoniously brings together the old and the new. The period house was built in 1880 by Baron Lord George Stephen, one of the pioneers of the railway industry in Canada. For nearly a century, it housed the prestigious and private Mount Stephen Club - icon of the Montreal elite - before acquiring this new vocation of hotel, combining the tradition of elegance and modern comfort. Le Mount Stephen is now home to the outstanding Bar George and MbioSpa Prestige. For more information on the hotel, visit www.lemountstephen.com.
