A hotel in Montreal is not only among the top 5 best in Canada but second in the whole country, according to a world-renowned ranking. The annual U.S. News & World Report, which judges accommodations based on reputation among professional travel experts, guest reviews and hotel class ratings, distinguished the Ritz-Carlton in Montreal. The hotel beat out two top-tier competitors in Toronto and another in Whistler to place among the top five — only bested by an upscale Vancouver property.
