- 🚗 Old Montreal parking: Limited and expensive — underground garages exist but fill quickly; confirm parking before booking a boutique hotel here
- 🏙️ Better for park-and-cruise: Downtown hotels along René-Lévesque — better parking infrastructure, still 10–15 min to the Alexandra Pier
- 🍁 Night before: Dinner in Old Montreal on Rue Saint-Paul; drinks at a Plateau bar; morning market at Jean-Talon or Atwater
- 🎨 Extra day? Basilique Notre-Dame, Mount Royal Park, the Museum of Fine Arts — Montreal easily fills 2 nights before a St. Lawrence sailing
- 🚇 Getting around: STM Metro covers the city efficiently; Old Montreal is walkable from the Champ-de-Mars or Square-Victoria stations
