It’s going to be hot, hot, hot this summer in Montreal, and for those who aren’t going on vacation, it’s going to be a bit rough.
To escape the scorching sidewalks that melt the soles of your sandals, you can take a quick dip in the pool at one of Montreal’s few hotels where you can swim between strolls through the streets and sunset cocktails.
The tiny pool at the Hotel William Gray
The very chic Hotel William Gray, in Montreal’s Old Port, also has a spa with a lovely little outdoor pool, nestled among the neighborhood’s old stone buildings and very, very luxurious.
You can access it by going to the hotel’s spa, which also features a herbal sauna, massages, and a steam bath.

The rooftop pool at the Bonaventure Hotel, right in the heart of Montreal’s business district, is for those who keep their socks on at the spa but deeply appreciate the ducks and fish in the hotel’s garden.
It’s also for those who keep working even when it’s way too hot, and for those who multitask, switching from air-conditioned rooms to cocktails on terraces with a big glass of water and a nap in between.
It’s only for hotel guests, but it’s worth staying there for a night, isn’t it?

The downtown spa hotel has a small pool and lounge chairs, much like a very chic motel, but nestled in the neighborhood’s narrow, tree-lined concrete streets.
This is for those who want to take a dip in the cool water and touch up their tan after a long day of strolling around the city.
