I'm looking for lodging in Quebec City and I've found a number of older references to the Chateau Fleur de Lys. Has anyone out there been there recently? Would you recommend it? I'm looking for something not-too-fancy, where well-behaved children would be comfortable, in the old city. Do you have any other recommendations? Thanks in advance, Jane

954.1 | Still recommended. | TEKDEV::SMELLIE | Tue Aug 08 1995 18:22 | 20 | |
Just got back from Au Chateau Fleur de Lys this weekend (reference 933.7). Do not mistake it for the also mentioned Hotellerie Fleur de Lys (reference 231.4 or 231.11 I believe). There are many establishments in Quebec City with Fleur de Lys in the name. Au Chateau Fleur de Lys is behind the Chateau Frontenac. We paid about $75 per night plus parking. That's one of the advantages of this little hotel, it has its own parking area behind the hotel. I would still recommend it, and I believe it would be suitable for a family. Book well in advance. We booked four weeks ago and got their last room this past weekend. The whole city was packed. Another possibility (because of the kids) is to book in one of the hotels in St. Foy. It is a suburb of Quebec City, about a 15 minute drive from the old city. These hotels are your typical motor hotels with pools and so on. I have stayed at Auberge des Gouverneurs in St. Foy. The difference in cost can pay for taxis into town. Regards, Tom | |||||

RE: 954 This time of year your probably better off staying just outside of old Quebec. There are plenty of fine hotel/motels that are very competitve in their prices. Qubec city is`nt that big so there`s not alot of driving no matter where you stay. St. Foy is just outside Quebec and have lots of great deals for lodging. ENJOY, CRAIG |
