Winter wonderland

I can’t say enough good things about our experience. The room, the amenities, the location, and the staff were first rate. We had a room with a river view and in the winter, I found this mesmerizing. We were able to walk to all the shops, restaurants and sites in...

The Best Of All Worlds

Old world charm in the heart of Old Quebec. Best location by far, walk out the front door and Quebec city is at your doorstep. Just wandering the streets from the hotel in winter is something right out of a Hallmark movie. And having Carnaval happening during our visit was...

The service was fantastic. Breakfast, appetizers, dessert, all in the gold member lounge were great. Staff was professional and very friendly....

Such a pleasure

We stayed in the Hitchcock Suite, and it was great! The room was so spacious and views beautiful as part of a free upgrade. The bar downstairs is pretty great too. We did have an unexpected paranormal visitor wake me up at 3am and grab my leg, but the hotel...

The hotel is beautiful inside and out. I love the history exhibits, unfortunately some were closed during our stay. The rooms were a bit smaller than we expected, though nicely appointed. We experienced perfect service at every turn. I highly recommend staying here, with a river view. It's a stunning...

Embrace the winter!

This was a perfect place to embrace Winter and see a beautiful old city. All the restaurants and sights were open and not crowded during this cold part of the year. We went the second week in January and brought layers and warm clothes. It was perfect. The hotel is...

Tourist attraction

Spectacular property that is a prominent feature of the town... unfortunately. Huge tourist attraction that makes staying here much less special than the price tag warrants. Hundreds of non-guests congregate in the lobby and restaurants, making passage difficult and meals impossible. The wait time at 4 p.m for the bar...

Incredible property, catastrophic policy and poor leadership.

We booked three nights up to and including New Year’s Eve. Incredible property located in center of town close to all major attractions. Architecture and surrounding venues remind me of our previous home is Switzerland. Simply awesome. Concierge (Philippe), checkin staff (Alexandre) and parking staff were fantastic. Gym is small...

History and Location Shine, but the Room Doesn’t

The positive aspects of my stay at the hotel include the warm and welcoming staff, who were always ready to assist with any questions or requests. The hotel itself is rich in history, featuring fascinating stories and a charming, historic vibe that truly immerses you in the spirit of Old...
