Complexe Desjardins is a modern, clean, and spacious commercial and financial centre located in the most vibrant sector of the city, at the heart of the Quartier des spectacles. It is situated in a centric area across from Place des Arts, near the Palais des congrès, and is a perfect starting point for exploring Montreal or the underground city. The complex is architecturally pleasing, featuring a huge water fountain, a glass elevator, and colourful chairs. It is wheelchair accessible and has many exits. The mall offers a variety of retail shops and restaurants, with around 80 boutiques and restaurants. It is not a mega shopping destination for clothes, focusing more on everyday needs with basics like a supermarket, pharmacy, liquor store, and various boutiques. There is a big food court with lots of options, described as your best bet when tired. The vast public plaza hosts presentations, shows, or exhibits for over 200 days a year. It is especially noted for its magnificent Christmas decorations. While generally appreciated for its diversity, some customer service experiences may vary.
A dazzling spot to hang out for awhile. However, it is just a mall. It is part of the Underground City Network in Montreal.

Un incontournable dans cette période… Les décorations de Noël sont magnifiques chaque année et la fontaine est tout simplement superbe. Dommage que le Père Noël est caché en arrière d’une clôture… qui est d’ailleurs très belle, je dois l’admettre.
