I parked nervously between a Lamborghini and a Jaguar coupe right outside the hotel in the 15 minute parking zone and walked into the reception. I gave the receptionist my name and then asked which way to the parking entrance. I was told that the hotel has a valet service and if I&#8217;d give him the keys, he will gladly have it taken care for me. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But I&#8217;d really prefer to park the car myself. Is that possible?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most certainly sir! May I know which car you are driving?&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>An awkwardly long pause followed. Then I said it. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ummm Ford. Focus.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The receptionist gave me a polite smile and I handed him the keys without any further hesitation or cause for embarassment. <\/p>\n<p>You see, in my defense, I&#8217;d just had an accident, this was a rental car, and I was trying to protect it from wind itself if I could. <\/p>\n<p>Aaaaanyways. We spent the rest of the weekend at, what we now call, the best hotel we&#8217;ve ever stayed at (including Hilton Cancun). The W Montreal. Everything from the service to the decor to the hospitality to the atmosphere of this hotel is worth every penny.
