Le Chateau Frontenac.
It doesn’t take a travel writer to know that the century-old Chateau
Frontenac is Québec City’s (if not Eastern Canada’s)
pre-eminent hotel. It is truly deluxe, an architectural landmark, and
it’s located at the epicenter of everything you’ll want to
see and do in Québec City. For many regular visitors, it’s
as much a pilgrimage to the Chateau Frontenac as it is a trip to Québec.

Auberge Saint-Antoine.
If the Chateau Frontenac has a single rival for style and luxury, it is
the elegant, newly expanded Auberge Saint-Antoine (that will triple in
size to 100 rooms in the summer of 2003). It is a combination of heritage
buildings and new construction, and as you arrive at the hotel you may
not be able to tell where the history ends and the new construction begins,
although you’ll have no trouble recognizing the centuries-old ruins
that are integrated into the structure. The hotel is located at the edge
of the Quartier Petit Champlain, across the street from the Musée
de la Civilisation. The hotel is absolutely everything it claims to be.

Hotel Chateau Bellevue.
The smallish, but picturesque Hotel Chateau Bellevue, is located across
from a lovely quiet park opposite the Chateau Frontenac, and offers wonderful
views of the Chateau and the Saint Lawrence River. The hotel has undergone
a series of room modernizations in recent years, and has many faithful
customers who return year after year.

Hotel Clarendon
If you can’t get into the Chateau Frontenac, but want to stay in
the heart of the Old City, the Hotel Clarendon is a stone’s throw
from the Chateau, across from City Hall, just a few steps from Québec
City’s colorful Latin Quarter. Some of the rooms in the original
section of the hotel are small, so you’ll want a room in the new
section of the hotel.

Manoir Victoria
The modern hotel Manoir Victoria is a very reasonable choice, at the edge
of the Quartier Latin, a short walk to everything.
