For most travelers, Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB) is the practical and primary choice, serving as the main international gateway for the city. It is located directly in Quebec City and offers a variety of ground transport options, including budget-friendly city buses and convenient fixed-rate taxis, making it ideal for both business and leisure visitors. In contrast, Bagotville Airport (YBG) is not located in Quebec City at all; it serves the Saguenay region in a neighboring city. This airport should generally only be considered if you have specific travel needs in the Saguenay area, as reaching Quebec City from there requires a significant journey of over two hours by intercity coach or car. Travelers landing at YQB can benefit from high-frequency transit and quick taxi access to the historic downtown area, whereas those arriving at YBG must plan for extensive regional travel. Always verify your final destination before booking, as YQB provides a far more seamless entry into the heart of the provincial capital.

The first thing that greeted me when I opened the door wasn't a scent, but a reassuring sense of cleanliness. The air was free of any mixed odors, only the clean smell of sun-dried bedding – probably the most important sense of security for me when staying away from home.
In the morning, there's no need for an alarm clock; the rosy glow on the horizon is the best wake-up call. Lying in bed, watching the sun slowly rise over the city skyline, with golden light gradually filling the room, made getting up early feel absolutely worth it.
As night falls, the place takes on a different character. Outside the window, there are no noisy neon lights, but rather the understated glow of a thousand homes – distant high-rises twinkling like stars, and nearby streets bustling with traffic. It's a kind of understated, yet comforting, prosperity. It felt like standing outside the hustle and bustle, quietly appreciating the city's gentlest B-side.
I'll definitely come back again, for this window view.FromUS$250

The room is big and nice, the bed is comfortable, the facilities are average, the hotel is old, the hygiene is OK; without advance reservation, the price is relatively high, the hotel does not provide slippers, you need to prepare them yourself; the hotel provides toothbrush and toothpaste but you need to go to the front desk to get them, the quality of the toothbrush is really poor; the hotel is not far from the castle, there are many restaurants nearby, overall it is OK.FromUS$381

The moment I stepped into the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, I instantly understood why so many fall in love with Quebec City. From my window, the St. Lawrence River flowed, and below lay North America's most European-feeling old town. The cobblestone streets, church bells, ancient walls, and evening glow create a surreal feeling, making you wonder if you're even in Canada. The hotel itself truly feels like a living, historic castle.FromUS$504

I've stayed here twice recently, and both times it was great. It's super close to all the nearby attractions, which is really convenient. The revolving restaurant on the top floor is absolutely amazing – you get a fantastic panoramic view of the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac and the Saint Lawrence River. The food and service there were also excellent.FromUS$146

We’ve had a lovely time at Auberge Saint-Antoine! The hotel is lovely and the staff are great, it’s in a great location and some rooms have lovely views like the one we were lucky to get. We used the valet the first time we stayed there who were great, but ended up parking across the road at the multi-storey car park the rest of the days as the valet is around $45+tax and tip so works out quite expensive. We found a really lovely spot around the corner for breakfast too called L’Antiquaire Buffet, they have amazing breakfast and really well priced, lovely staff too! The hotel is in a great location and easily walkable to a lot of sights and great restaurants.FromUS$515

Everything about this hotel is great. The location, the very warm and friendly welcome from the hotel reception team made our stay more enjoyable. Our room was excellent with a superb comfortable bed and good quality shower and bathroom fittings. The bar area was very nice with lovely seating and great service from the staff. We only tried the restaurant Louise once but the food was just amazing and of a high quality and standard. Highly recommended.FromUS$204

I stayed in this hotel for three days. It was clean and quiet! The parking lot is convenient and safe. It is suggested that some female receptionists at the front desk need to strengthen business training. When checking in, they asked to arrange a quiet room. Although she agreed, she arranged it in the ice machine diagonally opposite the door. The machine was noisy. I went to the front desk and changed a gentleman to a quiet room.
在这个酒店住了三天，干净、安静！停车场方便安全。建议前台个别女接待人员需要加强业务培训，入住时请求安排一个安静的房间，她虽然答应了却安排在制冰机斜对门机器噪音较大。又去前台换了一位先生给调换了安静的房间。FromUS$146

Hotel not far from the city center, about 15 minutes by car. Clean rooms, although we took a room for 2 days and they never came to clean, but I have found this in all the hotels in Canada.
There is also a small heated indoor pool and they provide you with towels at the reception.FromUS$133

Despite the hotel being under renovation, there was no noise from construction. You couldn't see construction scaffolding inside the hallways, they Built temporary walls that fully hid the corridors with construction. Excellent management of customer experience despite renovations!

The location of the hotel is very good. It is very close to the train station. It is very convenient if there is another journey in the future. The service staff has a good attitude. The daily breakfast is delivered to the door of the room. Although it is simple, it is sufficient.

Best hotel ever. No worries about food, both streets filled with cuisine to choose from. Very chill hotel, laundry, gym room, best amenities, best part they even provided oven-mini pantry with washing sink. Impressed the toilet facilities from basin to wall tiles and flooring, everything were so fine and well designed. Amazingly detailed I can’t help not to take photos!! Love the decor was surprised by the ambiance along lift to your hotel room. Highly recommended and will definitely come back again.FromUS$357

The old hotel is newly renovated and clean. The location in the center of the old city is first-class. It can be called four stars. The only thing that is not satisfactory is that the hotel door is inconvenient to go up the stairs. You must wait for the hotel waiter to help carry your luggage up the ladder.FromUS$262
