About our group
Great hotels.
New possibilities.
We design, build and operate boutique hotels — turning underused urban buildings into distinctive places to stay.
Who we are
Montréal roots. Bigger plans.
Urban Stays was established in Montréal in 2019 from a simple observation: the city’s changing buildings could become its next great places to stay. As the way people work changed, vacant office space opened the door to a different kind of hospitality project.
Today we run boutique hotel projects in Montréal and internationally, bringing property owners, capital, design, construction and hotel operations together around a shared vision.

Places D’Armes
In a historic Old Montréal building, three vacant office floors became a luxury boutique hotel of 15 spacious, fully furnished two-bedroom suites. A long-term lease with the property owner made the investment possible.
The conversion required new infrastructure, plumbing, bathrooms and a complete interior build-out. Urban Stays carried it from design through build-out — and now operates the hotel and oversees the guest experience.
Our approach
We take it all the way.
From strategic partnerships and the first layouts to construction and the first guest.
Identify the opportunity
We recognize the hospitality potential in underused commercial space, guided by location, building character and project feasibility.
Build the partnership
We work with property owners and strategic partners to set a shared direction and a practical structure for bringing the hotel to life.
Design the experience
Hotel concept, suite layouts, interiors and furnishings are developed around a thoughtful guest experience and the character of the building.
Deliver the build-out
Conversion, infrastructure, finishes and furnishing — creating a complete property ready for hospitality.
Operate the hotel
We launch the hotel, manage its ongoing operation and oversee the guest experience long after opening.
