Alexandrie-Montréal
Alexandrie-Montréal is another great hostel for solo travellers, with a bit of a different approach to bringing people together. Instead of having an in-hostel bar and cafe for people to congregate at, they created a comfy, cosy lounge area and encourage its guests to BYOB and mingle in a natural setting. They also have a homey patio that you’ll love relaxing on after a day of exploring. The daily activities will help give you an authentic experience in Montreal too!
