3. Le Germain Hotel Québec
Housed in a century-old building that still retains its original stone and woodwork, Le Germain Hotel Québec has been carefully remodeled to include modern amenities like a 24-hour fitness center and complimentary in-room Wi-Fi. The hotel’s guest rooms and suites also come with a complimentary breakfast, goose-down bedding, flat-screen TVs, minibars and Ruby Brown toiletries. Recent visitors raved about the unbeatable bedding and well-appointed rooms that boast beautiful views of Old Quebec, while others wished the hotel had a restaurant on-site. Because of the hotel’s central location to historic Québec City, guests will find numerous restaurants, boutique shops and attractions within walking distance of the hotel, including the Museum of Civilization and Place Royal.
4. L’Hermitage Hotel
Guests of the L’Hermitage Hotel say the friendly, attentive staff and cozy accommodations set this property apart from the many others that crowd downtown Vancouver. Rooms and suites are done up with comforts such as 40-inch flat-screen TVs, Nespresso coffee machines, complimentary Wi-Fi access and, in select rooms, fireplaces and furnished balconies. If your lodgings aren’t appointed with a balcony, you can still get some fresh air by taking advantage of the hotel’s complimentary bikes or the outdoor heated pool. Apart from the tranquil pool area, past guests praise the tasty breakfast offerings at the L’Orangerie Dining Room & Lounge, which includes dishes like Belgian waffles and BC smoked salmon. The Mediterranean fare at L’Hermitage’s other eatery, Café Medina, also garners compliments from visitors.
