Lovely small B&B in a quiet Quebec airport with lots of dining options and bookstores. Our room was under the eves and plugging in my 3 items every night (hearing aids, iPhone and iPad was challenging. Breakfast was outstanding. We had a lovely sitting area outside the room. Quebec seems a lovely, friendly, walk able, safe city.

Disliked: Staff & service
After a long and weary train ride, we arrived at the property at approximately 9:15 pm. Unbeknownst to us, the doors to the property were locked with a sign that indicated guests would not be welcomed after 8:00 pm. No one answered our phone calls or the doorbell. We made other arrangements at a different location. Obviously, I cannot comment on the condition of the property.

We are very sad that you are rating our Bed and Breakfast « Horrible » when you haven't even enter in our property. We are a Bed & Breakfast, so we are a private home and of course we don’t have 24hrs reception desk. We are available to welcome our clients up to 20:00 at night, after 8pm our team is not available because they need a well deserved rest since they are up working since 6 am. We clearly indicated, when you made the reservation, under ‘Important Information’ that you must do you your check in before 8pm unless you have contacted us to arrange a later time for arrival.Once again, we are sorry that you haven’t noted this very important information, when you made your reservation, about the maximum time of arrival for the check in.

Very clean and good location
The B&B was so clean, I don’t think there was a bit of dust to be found. The free parking was a really nice touch and was only a few min walk away. The breakfast was good. We stayed in the grand suite my only wish was that the TV was bigger and maybe mounted on the wall or put in the bedroom. The B&B was locked at all times so we felt safe during our stay. We stayed in late September and the AC seemed to be off but we opened the window and packed a little fan so the temperature wasn’t too bad. A fun little touch was there was a cd player in the grand suite, we were able to listen to a new cd we picked up on our trip

Beautiful B&B thats an easy walk to old Quebec City. Located on a vibrant street. The host was welcoming and responsive. We loved our garden view room and the secret garden. Breakfat was fabulous...french pressed coffee, made to order eggs, meat, cheese, fruit, and cookies. Great value. Would definitely stay again.

Like: the decor is extremely charming and very clean. The breakfast is excellent. The parking is not onsite but only a 8 - 10 min walk away in a locked garage and it's free. The inn keeper Phillipe is a man of few words but very helpful. Don't like: the mattress is extremely worn, the furniture cushions are also so soft the you avoid to sit on.

Wow!
What an amazing property this is! It was so unique and like stepping into a film set. Absolutely loved it! The property is in a good location with a 15 min walk to the start of old Quebec. There are many bars and restaurants close to the B&B and along the walk to the old town. Off site parking was available but is limited and so should be arranged in advanced. Breakfast was served in potentially one of the best dining rooms ever and was mainly continental with the addition of eggs cooked to your liking. This isn't just a place to stay on a trip but becomes part of the trip. Fantastic. Only minor downside was that the third bed (in the room with space for three) was a fold up and a little small.

We were fortunate to have the king bedroom which was so much larger than expected. We were pleasantly surprised with the grandeur and beauty of the home. It is truly a unique experience. Just be sure to check in before 9pm, otherwise you will not be allowed to stay that evening.

Entering this property is like taking a step back in time… two centuries, actually. The owners have successfully returned this house to its former glory with every detail. And yet, the comfortable bed, the available hot water and water pressure in the bathroom are as good as it gets to ensure a wonderful stay. My wife and I also enjoyed an excellent breakfast provided by Phillip. We had no issues with check in or check out and parking for our SUV was fine. Terrific location to explore the old city.

This b&b was beautifully decorated and very clean. It was in a great location with easy walking to old town. If you are tall don’t get the loft room as ceilings are low. The host didn’t talk much but was polite. Good breakfast. I would recommend.

This renovated turn of century estate had Polish of updated renovations with old world charm in period furnishings. Phillipe was extremely helpful and even printed items for us. The breakfast had nice assortment of cold items and eggs to order. I would definitely like to spend more time here. Lots of nice sitting areas. Only downside was no elevator. Hauling bags to 3rd floor was a endurance test. He allowed us to keep bags downstairs after checkout. Definitely recommend staying here if no mobility issues.

Baroque B&B
I had a really nice stay at Chateau du Faubourg, unfortunately I had a very long drive the following day so I missed out on breakfast. The room was clean and fit in the style of the whole home, it was like stepping into a baroque painting. It was difficult for me to find the B&B, GPS said it was in between two streets and the entrance is not at street level so I missed it from my car while lapping the block but the owner was very kind and answered my call when I was lost!

Good location and service, but parking is an issue
The place is clean and the service is excellent. The apartment in the back of the house has a kitchen and a bath, but it is not as historically amazing as the front of the chateau. Door handles are loose and the floors are uneven, but the bedroom and living room are large and comfortable, and the apartment has everything and is highly functional. Parking is an issue. It is detached and requires maneuvering a 13 or so step exterior metal stairs and then a 4 or so step wooden stairs. Not ideal if you have heavy luggage. I, however, would definitely stay here again. The location is good.
