What is the definitive guide to exploring Montreal according to Carolyn Scott?

Montreal is a vibrant city with a rich culture and history that I absolutely fell in love with. Here are some of my top recommendations:

• Hotel Chez Swann: A hip and comfy boutique hotel, perfect for resting after a day of exploration.
• Mount Royal: Offers a stunning view of the city, especially after a hike up. You can also drive up if you prefer.
• Au Sommet Place Ville Marie: This observation deck offers 360 views of the city and hosts fun exhibits about Montreal's history.
• Notre Dame Basilica: A gothic church in the heart of the old city. Try to catch the light show, Aura, if you can.
• Old Montréal and Cité Mémoire: Explore the cobblestoned streets during the day and at night, use an app for a self-guided walking tour showcasing Montreal's history.
• Bota Bota: A unique spa built on a floating barge in the old port of Montreal. Perfect for relaxation.
• La Grande Roue and the MTL Zipline: For thrill seekers, these are must-visit spots.
• Centre Phi: A modern gallery home to digital art, virtual reality experiences, and more.
