“Charming Hotel in Vieux Ville”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 November 2011

We booked the "Romantically in Love" package at this hotel, which included a horse-drawn carriage ride through Old Town and a 3 course dinner at Cafe de la Paix. Excellent value for our money. The staff, both the night and the day shift were excellent (English is a little spotty, but my wife speaks French. I'm sure they would have been willing to try their hand at English). They booked our carriage ride and dinner for the times we requested.
Our room was very clean and spacious. We booked a room with a king sized bed (memory foam mattress . . . oh so soft). The bathroom wasn't small, like I read in another review on here, but maybe that person had a different room, who knows?
The breakfast was a typical French affair-- croissants, rolls, yogurt, coffee, etc. Very tasty, spoiled only by our recent trip to Paris.
Our carriage ride was a bit cold (blanket!), but our driver Vincent was charming and spoke English well.
Dinner at the Cafe de la Paix was top-notch. We had snail for the first time. When you order, if you booked this package, make sure you tell them you're with the Cap Diamant so you get the proper menu. The only thing not included is alcohol and the tip. The waiter will even put your jacket on, if you're a lady.
Parking was in an outdoor lot about 3 minutes walk away, but it's a nice walk because it's in Old Town and that's what you're here to see.

A word of caution-- if you're trying to visit a sugar shack off season, make sure you call first. We drove all the way to one that claimed to be "year round" only to find it was quite exasperatingly closed.

Room Tip: Traveled in the Autumn and this sleeping couldn't be beat. Had a room over the Avenue Sainte. G...

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

A nice small hotel in the old city, and just 5 minutes from the Chateau Frontenac. Easy access to all the sights. Be sure to visit Basville.

“Absolutely Dreamy!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

Upon arrival, we were greeted very warmly and showed around the Inn. What a beautiful place! Nothing too over the top, but a very comfortable Inn that transported me to another place. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. Location was great, even for someone like myself who has a hard time walking distances. A very VERY short distance from the boardwalk area right off the river. I could not get enough of the croissants in the morning (or the coffee!), but otherwise breakfast was just okay at best. I guess the biggest issue I had was when the wind blew a potted plant in our room off of the windowsill, and I tried to clean up with a washcloth. When I returned to the room some time later, I had a quite scolding message in a ziplock bag (with another old cloth in the bag) that asked that I NOT use a white washcloth to 'clean'. It really wasn't a big deal, but I'd have to say that was probably my only issue. It kind of stunk also that parking was a small distance away, but not a really big deal as we walked most of the time. Oh, and the bathroom was so incredibly tiny...never have I seen one so small. WOW. I will very happily return. Quebec City is just so incredibly dreamy.

“Very nice stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

Ideally located in the center of the old Quebec, in a very quiet street, the Hotel Cap Diamant offers all you are waiting from a Bed and Breakfast :
- a warm welcome : people very nice and helpful,
- typical nice rooms : very cozy and comfortable, spaciaous and well furnished,
- a fair breakfast : I say fair only because I saw other breakfast completely unbelievable in Ontario, but this was good nyway!
- support for all information you need about Quebec.

Not sure about what follows but the only think I missed in the hotel was like a small bar to enjoy a drink (beer or wine) in the evening in their beaufiful garden.

I recommand this hotel without a doubt.

“This was a beautiful hotel with excellent amenities and we would recommend it to all of our friends!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011

This hotel was only a couple of blocks from everything that was happening in the upper town. Our room,which was the King suite, was literally the third and fourth floors of the building. It appeared to be professionally decorated, very spacious and looked like it could have been someone's appartment once upon a time. The bed was excellent, we slept very well.. The air conditioning kept us very comfortable and the lighted stone wall behind the clawfoot tub needs to be seen to be believed. The balcony that allows you to see all the way to the sea is a real asset. The breakfast in the morning was very good with breakfast cake and excellent coffee among other things. It was a great time to meet other people staying at the hotel. The owner was very helpful when it came to the parking garage. It was $14.00 a day but very worth it. Just do not bring a tall SUV because the garage is underground and it would not fit. There are three flights of stairs to this room which did not bother us at all. You should not come to the walled city if you can not walk. I will recommend this hotel and especially this King Size Suite to all my friends!

Room Tip: I am so happy that I chose to look for a room on Trip Advisor. Pictures of the hotels and rooms wer...
