Hotel William Gray

The Hotel William Gray, while a relatively new establishment as a hotel, occupies two historically significant 18th-century stone buildings in the heart of Old Montreal: the Maison Cherrier (built in 1773) and the Maison Edward-William-Gray (built in 1780). These structures once served as private residences and later as commercial spaces, witnessing centuries of Montreal's development. In the early 21st century, a meticulous renovation and integration project transformed these heritage buildings, along with a newly constructed tower, into the luxurious Hotel William Gray. The design carefully preserved the original stone facades and some interior elements, allowing guests to experience the historical ambiance while enjoying modern amenities. This thoughtful integration of old and new speaks to Montreal's commitment to preserving its rich architectural past while embracing contemporary urban life, making the hotel a living testament to the city's enduring history.
