Quebec City Bed and Breakfast Inns and Small Hotels
The Old Town of Quebec City is full of small hotels and quaint little bed and breakfast inns. Many are still family run hotels, and the owners greet you at the door and show you around. We enjoyed 3 nights in a beautiful early 1800's Quebec City bed and breakfast inn in the heart of the Old Town.
The rooms were fascinating - we may not of had a hot tub suite and 200 cable channels, but the quaint character and charm was unforgettable! Every morning we made our way down for a breakfast of fresh fruit, french rolls and coffee. And all the best sights and sounds of the Old Town were just a few minutes walk. The Fairmont Chateau Frontenac
But if you have something grand in mind, the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac is more than just close to the attractions - it is a Quebec City attraction! It's been a top Quebec honeymoon destination for years.
It's a grand old castle-like fortress perched on the top of a hill in the Old City. This charming, elegant resort gives you the feel of old Europe, while being within walking distance to the sights and atmosphere of the Old Town.
