This a wonderful hotel with a wonderful staff. Melissa and Jean-Christophe and Jonathan and André and Marie-Philippe and Luisa and Albert each gave me personal and friendly attention for my every need. I had many things to think about during my stay there and they all provided support that was especially valuable to me. I am sure that all the other members of the staff are equally wonderful.
I do want to call particular attention to something Albert did that was especially beautiful. I was checking out. I had decided that instead of driving back to Maine I would drive west to Canton NY to visit my high school baseball coach, Jake Dillon, whom---though I had spoken to him on the phone many times---I had not seen in person in many many years. I asked what the best way to get onto Route 720 heading west was. Albert printed out a map and used his pen to make arrows to show me how to do this. And then he did something extraordinary. He looked me in the eyes and said: "Mr. Hobby if you should get lost call me. I will get in my car, find you, and make sure you get on the right path." This was a gesture from the heart of great generosity and it moved me deeply. Merci Albert.
The next time I am in Montreal I shall stay at the Hotel Gault for sure. La prochaine fois que je suis à Montréal je vais certainement rester à l'Hotel Gault.
