Montreal doesn't just welcome the race and its fans, they build on it and make it even better.
We WILL go back.

I'd add the caveat having stayed in the city center that if you're an older guy like me, the noise is incredible there. Pop-up concerts everywhere . . . I prefer Old Montreal near the Cathedral Notre Dame but hey, to each his own. I would add that the small boutique hotels in town are wonderful. I've been staying in the same one (Auberge Bonaparte) since the year it first opened and reserve upon checking out.
