TRAVEL GUIDE: MONTREAL

I have been visiting Montreal for years, and can honestly say that I fall more in love with the city each time I visit. Perhaps I love Montreal more since our Paris engagement - soaking up all of the love and old-world charm that’s in the city.

I had the great fortune of visiting Montreal with work for 6 straight years during the Canadian Grand Prix- my goodness is the city alive that weekend! Looking back on those years, I am so grateful for the experiences I had with parties, dinners, watching the races and just so many incredible memories!

Proud moment of my career! My vision came to life for our McLaren x Ritz Carlton Montreal F1 party in 2016

This year, my husband and I have already done 2 road trips to Montreal, once in February with another couple and this past weekend just the two of us. Growing up, my Dad was a pilot so we had the privilege of traveling inexpensively, making road trips non-existent. This is a fun new beginning in our marriage!

Montreal is full of incredible food, beautiful terraces, edgy cocktail bars, the best coffee and the most gorgeous buildings in the Old Port.

I love the architecture, restaurants and walkability in the Old Port so we pretty much stay in that area every time we visit, and we just love Hotel William Gray!
