The northwest corner, showing the north elevation; The Palais des congrès de Montréal is a convention and exhibition center located at the north end of Old Montréal, in the borough of Ville-Marie of Montréal. The Palais was constructed above the Ville-Marie Expressway, the main underground artery of Montréal's downtown. It is also connected to the subway system at métro Place-d'Armes and, by extension, to what is called the underground city. Situated in the Quartier international de Montréal, the Palais is surrounded by several interconnected hotels, all accessible without having to brave inclement weather.
