The funny thing about the movie and wanting privacy was that we went and had dinner in the restaurant in the IC that night.You got a much better view of the action and no one to tell you to stop.We even saw a little of the filming with the star Vin Diesel.

.
.
But we were here for far more important things-eating and drinking.We had had a glass or 3 in the lounge and between us we had coupons for 4 drinks.So mrsdrron had a good Italian Pinot gris whilst I got to try a quite decent local pinot noir.
.
Mrsdrron had a lobster bisque with mussels and clams which was excellent.I had the roasted octopus which was great-very tender.
.
.
We both then had the beef tartare-mrsdrron ordered the entree size and I the mains size.The waitress gave us both the main meal size.
.
.
We were both absolutely full so no desserts.But we both enjoyed the food and the service The waitress was extremely good.The pity was that we had a private dining room.
.
We had a very good stay here.The recognition of status was excellent and compensation for not having an upgrade or a room ready early was way more than expected.
The staff were excellent.The waitress in the restaurant and the fellow running the lounge were excellent.So much so that mrsdrron who is vehemently opposed to tipping told me I should tip them both.In fact she ended up tipping the lounge attendant.
So I can reccomend the Intercontinental Montreal.
