Stayed at the Hotel Quartier in Sainte Foy for 1 night because we wanted to be closer to the airport than in Old Quebec City due to an early morning flight. The hotel has a contemporary look and the room had contemporary furnishings and decor. We were greeted by very friendly & helpful front desk staff. The room was a reasonable size with 2 double beds and table and sofa type chairs. Complimentary bottled water was provided in the room. The bathroom is fairly small but had the usual amenities. The room and bathroom were clean but the tiles in the bathroom could do with some regrouting in some areas. The lobby area is large with lots of seating if you wish to hang out for a while. The hotel is located in the business district within walking distance of the Laurier Mall and restaurants. Taxi service to the airport was quick and cost about $20 including tip.

This hotel is not near to Old Quebec City but you could drive or take the bus.

The wake-up call that was offered never materialized. Overall, had a good stay.

The room was relatively small, had very poor lighting. The ice maker was out of order during our entire 5 day stay, so we had to go to the front desk for ice. Twice there was only one person on duty at the desk and they were unable to leave to get us ice.

I stayed for a night in August 2010.
The location is not bad if you have a car or don't mind taking the bus to go to downtown quebec city. It's about a 10 minutes drive.
It looks like it was an old fashioned hotel and they cheaply tried to make it look modern. The lobby looks really great but once you enter the room, it's just very basic. It's clean but everything looks pretty old and no fridge of course. At least, it's clean.
I would say it's a good 2 stars but definitely not worth more than 100 dollars.

Pros : free parking, clean, nice staff
Cons : overpriced, not in the historical center

We (family with two kids) stayed in Hotel Quartier over Civic Holiday long weekend (which is, by the way, is not a long weekend in the Province of Quebec). Overall, although there were no serious issues which could affect our health of well-being (like unsanitary conditions or violence), we definitely felt we were not getting our money's worth.

Let's be fair and start with positives. The hotel's design is much more modern than your average North American chain. When one enters the lobby oone feels as in one of those European hotels, which don't care about "corporate style" inherited from Golden Fifties. It is pretty conveniently situated relative to major highways leading to Quebec City from South and West (i.e. Ontario, Montreal and USA). Location relative to the Old Town is not so bad too (about 15 minutes drive). The neighborhood is nothing to be excited about (typical suburban mix of malls, office buildings and some residential subdivisions), but it felt safe and has everything a traveling family might need to sustain itself (supermarkets, department stores, fast food and family restos). The hotel's maintenance is adequate, everything in our room was clean and in good working order. Front desk staff is fast and efficient. The hotel has plenty of free parking, although parking spots are definitely narrower than in other jurisdictions of North America (must be a Quebec thing).

Now let's talk about not-so-positive aspects. My biggest problem with the Hotel Quartier was not getting my money's worth. Rooms are not truly small, but on smallish side, do not have a fridge, a coffee machine or a kettle, but this place advertises itself as a 4-star property and charges accordingly. We needed a cot and, instead of customary 10 bucks (and many places do provide it for free), we were charged $15 per night. Fridge can be rented for $10 per night, and they not only don't have kettles/coffee machines in rooms, they don't have them for rent. You need to go to neighbouring Golden Arches (thankfully, there's one right across the road) or a gas station for a cup of hot water for your tea. And I have to remind you again, this is the place advertising itself as a 4-star. Walls are very thin, so you are much more aware of your neighbours' actions than in other hotels. AC unit was working OK, but was producing more noise than a Dash 8 turboprop. Floor plan is very odd, you can't get anywhere without going up or down couple of steps (wasn't a problem for us but I can't imagine how to use a luggage cart here). And I did find their practise to preauthorize one's credit card in advance for full amount odd.
