Best New Hotels in the World: Hot List 2017

This old Montreal hotel opened last summer, and two city institutions opened outposts on its ground floor...

There's no shortage of hotels in Montreal's old quarter but Hotel William Gray is a lesson in putting quality first. Located on the St Lawrence River in two historic former townhouses, the 127-room space was whipped up by Camdi Design and furnished with the work of Canadian artist Steven Spazuk.

The latest addition to the Antonopoulos Group's line of lovely places to lay your head ... William Gray sits in the most picturesque part of Old Montreal with spectacular views of the fleuve. Rooms are airy with hardwood floors, plush beds and floor to ceiling windows.

If hotels could be said to have genealogies, the Hotel William Gray would unquestionably score for its blue-blooded stock.

Book a room at the new Hotel William Gray in the Vieux Port, which combines a sleek design with the chic restaurant Maggie Oakes, a coffee shop by Montreal favorite Cafe Olimpico, and a retail shop by OTW (Off The Hook).

For an all-inclusive experience, look no further than the William Gray, a fresh addition to the boutique hotel scene in Montreal.
