Looking for a late fall or winter getaway?

You might want to check out Montreal which is currently offering a Sweet Deals value and savings package to encourage visitors to enjoy its cultural exhibits, European vibe, fine restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

Travelers who book a fall Sweet Deal on a long weekend getaway now through Dec. 31 can get a second night in one of more than 20 participating hotels for half price. In addition, the deal includes added amenities provided by the hotels, a $20 gift courtesy of Fruits & Passion and Tourisme Montreal, two Privileges Passport coupons from Casino de Montreal and a discount card and gift with a purchase of $75 Canadian or more in one of the Shopping3 Centers.

The big cultural event in Montreal right now is "Art Rocks Montreal," a series of three museum exhibits joining pop rock and art. The "king of American pop art" is at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts' Warhol Love exhibit. The Musee d' art Contemporain de Montreal is featuring "Sympathy for the Devil: Art and Rock n' Roll since 1967." And the DHC/Art Foundation for Contemporary Art is hosting the REPLAY exhibit of the acclaimed works of Christian Marclay.

Shopping3 is three interconnected shopping centers in the heart of downtown and the underground city near downtown Montreal. It includes more than 300 boutiques, and the highest indoor fountain and largest food court in North America.
