Quebec City

Chateau Frontenac overlooking Old Quebec

Written by

in

Quebec City hotels cluster inside the walls of Old Quebec for maximum cobblestone charm, in Upper Town near the Chateau Frontenac, or near the airport for early flights.

Staying Inside the Walls

A hotel inside Old Quebec’s walls puts you steps from the Chateau Frontenac, the Dufferin Terrace boardwalk, and Lower Town’s Petit-Champlain district, though rooms here book up early during peak season and Winter Carnival.

Rates Peak in Summer and During Winter Carnival

Hotel rates run highest in July and August, and again for a shorter, sharper spike during the February Winter Carnival, with spring and late fall offering the best value.

Upper Town vs. Lower Town

Upper Town sits at a higher elevation with grander architecture and government buildings, while Lower Town’s narrow streets hold more boutique shops and restaurants, connected by a funicular and staircases.
