Great hotel, great location, and amazing value. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is delicious. Definitely worth the stay!

8/10 Very good

Our host was an amazing helpful yet funny man. He served a wonderful non hot breakfast that was excellent. Plus a wonderful cup of coffee. The hotel was vintage and very much like a small boutique hotel one might find in Paris. It was quirky and enjoyable but could use a little TLC. Maybe a paint refresh.... Nonetheless I would stay there if I ever returned to Quebec City. The location was good and the memory makes me smile.

The place was handy and there is a parking lot just around the corner. My room was great and the owner has a good sense of humor. Oh, and the breakfast was nice as well.

L'Intendant is a charming small B&B. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and while the breakfast is the same every day, it is quite enjoyable. The B&B has three levels, but there is no elevator, so be cautious if you have mobility issues.

The room and linen did not seem or smell like they were clean. The breakfast area could be cleaner and more organized as well. The space and location are great but the service and customer experience need some improvement

The location was excellent for exploring the area. Breakfast was delicious every day and real maple syrup and homemade jam were appreciated! Gerald offered assistance when needed and his dry sense of humour amusing) There was no kettle in the room if you wish to make coffee or tea. We would recommend this establishment and would stay here again.

We recently stayed at L'Intendant as a family of four. Overall, we had a comfortable stay, but there are a few things future guests should know. **Pros:** * The room was spacious and comfortably accommodated all four of us. * The room and bathroom were clean. * The bathroom and room were well-equipped with complete amenities. * The location is convenient for exploring Quebec City's attractions. **Cons:** * Our room was on the third floor, and there is no elevator, so carrying luggage up and down the stairs was quite difficult, especially for anyone traveling with seniors or heavy bags. * Breakfast was included, but it was disappointing. On the first morning, my husband found a hair on his fruit plate, which affected our experience. * On our second morning, we had to leave very early to drive back home. We asked if it would be possible to receive our included breakfast as a simple takeaway since it only consisted of croissants, fruit, cheese, juice, and coffee. Unfortunately, our request was not accommodated, even though breakfast was included in our booking. * During breakfast, the owner jokingly took our phone and commented that using a phone during meals is unhealthy. We understand that no harm was intended, but it felt awkward and made us uncomfortable. * Parking is not free, and the parking area is located behind the building, requiring guests to drive around to access it.

Had a wonderful stay. The host was welcoming. The location was excellent. I especially loved the charming antique design, which gave the hotel a unique character. The breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Suggest reading other reviews before booking. The hotel is very convenient for the rail station and 10 minutes walk to Upper Quebec centre; 15 mins to Place Royale. It is definitely a "one-off" as hotels go these days. A bit like walking into a 1960s house with some furniture from the 1950s. No lift and steep stairs. Can't comment on what each room is like - we had the king bedroom. The bed was comfortable, sheets clean and a number of towels provided. There was a double jacuzzi style tub on a podium but we only used the shower above (very good). The toilet is like a cupboard built into the room (but no roof). Large TV provided but didn't use. No daily cleaning. Kettle and cups provided when requested. Breakfast was very good, though the same each day. The manager is also a one-off character. I can see why some folk felt a little uneasy or threatened but he came across to us as someone who likes to have some fun (on his terms) with guests. We went along with it got to enjoy our interactions and found him helpful. He has a good knowledge of old Quebec and wanted to share this with us. So if you are looking for the usual modern hotel, don't think this is for you but if you are looking for a reasonably priced place for somewhere to put your head down for a night or two, then it is worth considering

2/10 Poor

The premises are rundown and neglected. Access to the rooms with our luggage was almost a health hazard. The single member of the hotel staff was not flexible and came off as unwelcoming and abrasive. Will not return this hotel.

Gerard was accommodating, we appreciate him waiting for us until 10:30pm because the train was delayed. We really enjoyed the breakfast he prepared. We liked the music he plays to create good vibes, and his dry sense of humour. The room will give you a glimpse of what room looks like in the past. The room was not perfect if you’re looking for a fancy room but it is neat, tidy and will give you a good sleep. Thank you Gerard 🤗

Quebec City adventure

This was a very comfortable provision for our one night stay following our cruise from Boston. A great price and location alternate to the congested pricey accommodations in the walled upper-old city. Just 2 blocks from the gated entry at Cote du Palais. The host was most helpful in securing our taxi for our 4am trek to the airport. Technology kicked us, the taxi was not an app request through Uber, we paid him in cash; however Uber picked the ride up on my app and not realizing this had occurred, I paid all over again when I gave a 5 star plus tip for what I thought was an incomplete ride from a previous port excursion. So Uber users beware. We are taking this in stride as we learned at airport that some were unable to secure rides in advance and therefore spent the night at the airport! Sadly, we missed the breakfast due to our early departure.
Sunny and cozy
Host provided great walking tour information

Location is fantastic. No elevator, parking is not free, it is public parking lot a block away, Place is old and it shows. It’s a good value in Old Quebec, but unless you have good sense of sarcastic humor and tolerance, this hotel might be a bit of a surprise.
