Can you think of any cool hotels in this area? (I am looking also.)

It's hard to know for sure. Since I live in the city, I don't stay in hotels obviously
But from what I see when I'm walking around in the area its mostly small B&B type places. After all, the hipster artsy crowd frown upon big corporate hotels and such

No, not at all. Montreal is a very bilingual city. Almost everyone speaks both languages. You'll just hear French spoken around you a lot more around here. Traditionally, the French have their bars and pubs and the English have theirs, but the lines are blurring more and more all the time.
As for hotels, I know the Manoir du St. Denis is right there because I walk by it all the time when I'm going out. It's not a swanky hotel by any means (probably a 3 star or something), but its right in the middle of the action, which is why I always notice it. It's right on the corner of St. Denis and Ontario, which is right smack in the middle of a bunch of cool pubs and restaurants. Le Mer a Boire, St. Bock, the Distillery, Magellean, La Paryse (maybe the best burger joint in town), and on and on.
