Lovely except for the view issue
Cons:

The already very expensive rooms had very bad views - it said courtyard view but looked right into brick wall. I had to pay $400 more to get a view. The guests that we had invited kept the very bad view room - looked directly into a brick wall! I was very embarassed as I had booked the rooms and told them how beautiful it was and it was worth the price.

Better to just take a tour of the hotel lobby and skip staying here
Pros:

friendly and helpful staff, bed was very comfortable, room very clean. Loved the pool and hot tub

Cons:

Very poor value for the price. Room and bathroom are small. The one chair and lounger were both uncomfortable for sitting more than a few minutes. There are no frigs in the rooms so I removed five hotel beverages from the mini bar to store my own personal items and medication and replaced the hotel beverages unused in the mini bar when I left. However, there is now a $400 charge on my Visa for these items (the staff assured me at checkout the charge will be removed).
I have stayed in much nicer accommodations in Old Quebec City and elsewhere for a fraction of the price. I thought this splurge would be worth the premium rate but I am disappointed with the experience.

En résumé : oui pour le prestige et l’histoire du lieu, beaucoup moins pour la qualité hôtelière réelle.
Pros:

Le lieu est majestueux, chargé d’histoire, et l’expérience visuelle reste impressionnante. Le personnel est agréable et le service globalement impeccable.

Cons:

Nous aurions toutefois apprécié davantage d’assistance pour les bagages à notre arrivée, ainsi qu’une gestion plus simple du voiturier, car il faut pratiquement courir partout chaque fois que l’on souhaite récupérer son véhicule.

Au moment de notre départ, l’expérience a malheureusement été encore plus décevante. Alors que nous étions avec des enfants et plusieurs bagages, le monsieur avec la barbe, pourtant immobile les bras croisés dans le dos et manifestement non occupé, a refusé de nous aider et nous a laissés transporter seuls toutes nos valises jusqu’à la voiture. Pour un établissement de ce standing, cela est tout simplement inadmissible.

Malheureusement, l’expérience hôtelière n’est pas à la hauteur du prestige du lieu. Les chambres sont vétustes et auraient besoin d’un sérieux rafraîchissement. Beaucoup d’éléments semblent usés jusqu’à la corde : le store nous est littéralement resté dans les mains, les fauteuils et coussins sont délavés et ternis. Nous avions une très belle vue sur le fleuve, mais les vitres étaient extrêmement sales.

La piscine était trouble et l’espace manquait clairement d’entretien, avec du matériel et du désordre un peu partout.

Le plus gros problème reste cependant le bruit. La climatisation est tellement bruyante que nous avons dû la couper malgré la chaleur. À cela s’ajoutent les allées et venues constantes dans les couloirs, les portes qui claquent et le bruit permanent. Même avec des bouchons d’oreilles, toute la famille a passé deux très mauvaises nuits. La literie est également dure et peu confortable.

Nous tenons toutefois à souligner un geste apprécié de la direction : lorsque nous avons signalé les problèmes de bruit durant la nuit, l’hôtel a offert les frais de stationnement, ce qui témoigne d’une bonne volonté et d’une volonté de compenser la situation.

Excellent luxury hotel
Pros:

Beautiful building, very well maintained. Opulent settings

Very nice pool area with hot tub and a sauna

Cons:

Building works started early right outside our window

Of you self park, you must carry bags up and down multiple step levels to get into the hotel (drop at the door or valet park)
