This is a lovely loft perfectly located between the upper and lower parts of old Quebec. The view from the shared rooftop patio is great. It’s nice to sit there on a hot summer evening with a glass of wine before going back inside to the air conditioning.
The (really clean) kitchen has a toaster, coffee / tea machine, fridge, stove and microwave, but we only used it for breakfast because we couldn’t be bothered to find a supermarket and I didn’t pack much food.
Just a few things to note so you know before you book:
1. Check-in is at a different location. Grab a spot in the 15 minute parking zone and walk a short way to the hotel to check in. Drive to the loft, park in the 15 minute area (we weren’t clear on where this was, but we didn’t get a ticket so…) and take your luggage up to the loft just a few steps away from your car. Drive your car to one of the parking lots recommended to you by the hotel. Walk back to the loft and enjoy your stay! We only used the car when we went to see the falls and ile d’orleans, and again to go to the art gallery and aquarium. Everything else is within walking distance.
2. The loft is halfway up a steep hill, and then up 3 flights of stairs. This makes it perfectly located, gives it a great view, and also provides lots of exercise.
3. The bedroom is up a narrow spiral staircase. The bed was really comfortable.
4. The rooftop deck is shared with other guests, and the best view is right outside your double layered window. We startled a few people when we stepped out through the window, but there was always somewhere to sit, and we never heard anyone talking if we were inside with our window closed.
I’m really happy we stayed in this unique loft! Much more fun than a boring hotel.
