The best way to describe the interior of this hotel is dated. The common areas and rooms were probably fitted out about 30 years ago and really could do with a bit of modernisation. They are adequate however you won't get the luxuries of a modern hotel here. Things like hair driers, air conditioning etc are not standard. Everything is clean and well kept considering its age though. The hotel is very noisy. we could hear people banging around in rooms above and the floors were very creaky. I expect the rooms get very hot in summer.

On the flip side though, the location is excellent. You are right on the broadwalk and the view from outside the hotel is fabulous. I think the only way to get a better location would be to stay in the Fairmont.

We stayed here for one night and it served its purpose very well. I don't think I would want to stay much longer though.

This hotel has a great location: overlooks the Saint Lawrence river on the same street as the Chateau Frontenac, overlooking the boardwalk and the river. We found a deal through "Bonjour Quebec", otherwise it really would have been overpriced for what it is.
We had a small room at the back of the hotel on the 3rd floor - by the way no elevator. It is a charming old house, probably needs some upgrades too. The room was very small, tiny bathroom and they still had a rotary telephone!!! The bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. The bed was double (not queen) and only one set of pillows (i.e. 2).
The owners were friendly and helpful on restaurant hints.
If you get a chance to book one of the rooms facing the river, they have a balcony with what seems to be a nice view. Breakfast was not included in our room/deal.
Parking was for a fee at the end of the street near the cliff/park overlooking the river. It was empty, seemed not very safe being in a dead end. But people also leave there, so I guess it is ok; however, certainly not worth $18 parking outside on unpaved ground.

fantastic location overlooking the St Lawrence and just down from Hotel Frontenac..Plains of Abraham, Citadel at the end of the road. Funicular at the other end
Great Value...rooms could use updating but the local more than made up for it
Would highly recommend

My wife and I booked for 4 nights - It was a busy time and we were advised they had one room available and could accomodate us for the period we required - in a room at the rear of the hoyel but without a view. We took it. We joked that it most likely is the garden shed. Surprise Surprise.. It was on the first floor and yes it did face the rear of the property. It was more than we envisaged - with en-suite. After all at the end of the day we were only in the room to shower and sleep. The Hotel location was super, The views down onto the St Lawrence when you stepped out the front door were superb - All the Staff were so friendly. They allowed us to sit and have breakfast out on the sunny office balcony taking in the view of people strolling the boardwalk below and beyond them, the busy shipping moving on the St Lawrence. A cold bottle of wine on the same balcony one evening as the sun set was outstanding. We will certainly return...
