Hvorfor folk elsker det

- Free 24/7 espresso lounge and self-serve wine dispenser in the lobby
- Stunning views of the St. Lawrence River from upper floors
Hurtig oversigt: A former bank headquarters that feels more like a wealthy friend's loft than a hotel, though the breakfast price tag might sting.
Anmeldt af @cath_nad: I was shocked by how spacious this room felt for Old Quebec! That long console was a lifesaver for all my winter gear, and sitting on the window ledge watching the snow fall over the brick buildings was such a vibe. Definitely my go-to for a friends' trip.
