Cozy hotel in a gorgeous location
Pros:

Super friendly and helpful staff, charming building, and the location was amazing. The hotel was centrally located between the Chateau Frontenac (the gateway to the Old Town) and the Citadel (the gateway to the Plains of Abraham). The room was big, and we had a view of the river (tho partially obstructed by the window air conditioning).We pretty much walked right out of the hotel to the riverfront...it's a staircase (or ramp) down to the Terrasse Dufferin, which is a long boardwalk along the river with benches and pavilions (and at one end it connects to the Promenade des Gouverneurs, another long boardwalk/path that you can take to the Plains of Abraham).

Cons:

Visitors should know that there isn't an elevator. We were on the 4th floor. We were glad for all the extra exercise (poutine!) but this is something to be aware of.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Not getting a room overlooking the garden as requested. Third floor and hot in room. Toilet right up against tub so had to sit sideways. Unacceptable when charging over $300/night plus $30/night for parking spots soo tight that you could hardly step out of your vehicle. Very disappointed and will not recommend this place.

Pros:

Douillet, vue fantastique. Le coin cuisine avec les snacks inclus . La douche avec un tuyau!

Cons:

Mais 4 étages sans ascenseur, c'est un peu rude. Le prix de l'authenticité.

La mejor estancia en Quebec, hermosa vista y ubicación privilegiada.
Pros:

Jamás imaginé la ubicación en la que está el hotel, fue una gran sorpresa para mi familia y para mi. Ami consideración se encuentra ubicado en la parte más bonita de la ciudad. Tiene una vista increible al agua y está en una zona súper tranquila, bastante cerca de otros hoteles, restaurantes, cafés, bares y tiendas. El lugar es súper límpio, las lnstalaciones son muy bonitas y muy bien conservadas para los años que debe tener el edificio. Su personal es el más amable que me ha tocado conocer en todos mis viajes a distintos paises. Son muy accesibles y serviciales. La limpieza de las habitaciones y las áreas comunes es muy buena. Tienen la cortesía de dejarte una pequeña charola con galletas, barritas, cacahuates, dulces y panes, además de jugos. A diario te ordenan la habitación y el área de baño. Simplemente fue una muy buena elección y sin duda volvería a visitarlos. 10/10.

Cons:

0 comentarios negativos.
