Where to start? My husband and I love this property! It is our first choice for a place to stay every time that we come to Quebec City. It is so conveniently located... on the beautiful St. Lawrence River between the Chateau Frontenac and the US Consulate, positioned halfway between the top of the Haute Ville and the bottom of the Basse Ville. This makes it a very walkable location for seeing the Old City, which is great, because parking is almost non-existent. The ambiance of the hotel reminds us of our favorite small hotels of Paris. Nothing glitzy, but lovely and functional, and exceptional value for the price. The self-serve Continental breakfast is good value, and since it isn't included in the price of the room, you can choose every morning between the convenience of a quick bite at the hotel or a splurge on a fancy breakfast somewhere else in town. The 24-hour coffee bar is also very nice to have available. The lobby area with fireplace is stocked with books and games... and a reasonably-priced wine bar! The fully bilingual staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and helpful. You can book a massage on the premises (I didn't have time, so can't comment), and despite the historic building, a helpful elevator has been retrofitted (there are four levels in the building). There is limited car parking; if you need to park a car, you need to request it well in advance. Parking is only available via valet service, and they're usually very quick. There is an extra charge.
