In homage to the new owners' cultural heritage, the transformed Vogue Hotel Montreal brings the city a true luxury hospitality experience inspired by the grand hotel culture of Asia and the Middle East. While the hotel showcases a brand new look, it remains at its previous address on de la Montagne street, nestled in the heart of the Golden Square Mile.

Each of the common space’s finishes, from the Venetian plastered walls and ceilings to the custom Quebec-sourced white oak furniture, have been chosen for their noble feel and handcrafted quality. The materiality holds a poetic tension between light and dark: exquisite Turkish travertine floors contrast with an Italian black walnut colonnade that runs the length of the hotel and, paired with soaring ceilings, gives the air of a modern grand hall.

The lobby’s original axis was horizontally shifted to provide guests a three-tiered experience. Bordered by the hotel’s glass facade, the active café, restaurant and lounge areas offer a direct connection to bustling Downtown Montreal, while the hallway holds reception and acts as a liminal space leading guests into the serene Cabinet of Curiosities, meeting rooms, and bathrooms.

Vogue Hotel is also home to Café Bazin’s new outpost, a miniaturized version the iconic Westmount bistro. At closing time, the café shuts its Krizet glass doors on the hotel’s lobby, transforming the empty space into a stunning light box that emits an alluring glow.

The lounge area’s open-concept floorplan and warm lighting creates an inviting atmosphere for guests and locals to mingle. A custom banquette and a curved sofa, both upholstered in cinnamon ultrasuede and paired with a walnut burl coffee table, invite guests to socialize. A central free-floating fireplace, visible from the street and rendered in mirrored bronze, reflects two sculptural light installations from local studio Lambert & Fils hanging from either side.

Hidden away from the lobby’s bustle is the Cabinet of Curiosities. Nestled beneath a large oculus that mimics the effect of a skylight, this cozy library nook offers guests a moment of serenity. This corner’s U-shaped tweed banquette is bordered by a built-in bookshelf, which wraps itself around the space and showcases a collection of books and art objects curated by Priyanka Jhamb.

Helmed by celebrated Montreal chef, Antonio Park, YAMA brings a new, elevated fine dining experience to the city's vibrant food scene. Situated at the center of the hotel’s action, an oblong bar forms the beating heart of Vogue Hotel while the restaurant's layout offers guests a myriad of dining experiences featuring custom furniture designed by Sid Lee Architecture in bleached white oak and tonal tweed upholstery. The undulous lines found throughout YAMA - and the rest of the hotel - curve and curl into one another, inviting the eyes to wander, linger, and feast upon their luxuriant surroundings, while a plethora of tropical plants lend the space a lush atmosphere.
