My stay at William Gray was a mix of beauty and frustration. The hotel itself is stunning, with a stylish blend of modern and historic decor in the heart of Old Montreal. However, I had several minor issues during my stay that took away from the experience. Housekeeping was inconsistent, and despite the high price point, it felt like the detail wasn't there. I truly appreciated the rooftop bar and the amazing shower in my room, though I was left feeling undervalued as a guest due to the service shortcomings.
