"The hotel clerk spoke to us in English, which was considerate considering recently changes in enforcement of French language in Quebec, and heavy fines if signs were displayed in English. The hotel clerk was OK.2022-06-22"
"Good hotel. Book it.2021-07-01"
"The hotel room was large and clean, and the staff was friendly and quite helpful. I enjoyed my stay.2018-07-24"
"An absolutely fabulous experience. The motel clerk went out of her way to assist us, and even walked us to our outstanding room with a great view. She made us dinner reservations and printed out our boarding passes in the morning, as well as calling us a cab. We enjoyed the infused water. The food and service at the on-site restaurant were beyond exceptional. Highly recommend.2017-09-23"
"The exterior of the motel was nothing special, but the front desk clerk was warm and welcoming and switched to English right away. Our room was Euro-chic and comfortable. The Nespresso pot was great, and we found milk and cream in the fridge. I loved the low lighting, but my wife would've liked better lighting. We loved staying here and would definitely return. The shuttle left for Old Quebec 3 times in the morning, but only returned at 6 PM. Easy drive to town, so we chose to drive and pay for parking.2016-08-27"
"A good hotel for a great price. The staff was pleasant and helpful. There was a convention going on, but it didn't interfere with our stay.2018-05-06"
"We didn't feel welcome or well-treated, though the hotel looked upscale. The bathroom layout was inconvenient, and there were no grab bars or no-slip strips in the bathtub. Breakfast wasn't free. No one told us we should get reservations for the restaurant, and we were basically ignored for 20 minutes when we went for dinner.2016-07-27"
"A beautiful hotel with superior service. No complimentary breakfast, though.2018-08-15"
"Walk to Old Quebec and several great restaurants. You'll need a car if you're going to the University of Laval or downtown Quebec. We had to wait 15 minutes to check in, and we loaded our own luggage onto a cart since there was no valet in sight. When one arrived, he reminded us to use the cart quickly since other people might need it. Our room was average and had a view of a construction site. Housekeeping didn't do much other than made the beds and replace the towels. Great concierge; he was courteous, friendly, and helped us with the details of booking a whale tour. Small exercise room. When we were leaving, another valet showed great concern about how long we planned to use the luggage cart and was sarcastic when I didn't tip him because of his attitude. The breakfast buffet was expensive and basic. 2017-08-20"
"Everything about this hotel was great except the bed was too small for 2 people. 2015-09-28"
HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
