Hotels near Communautaire Lairet Garden, Quebec City

The location is a little far out about a 10 minute walk to the old town downtown. Would not be so bad in the summer but we came during an ice storm and the sidewalks were not the most walkable and it was hard to get a cab on the weekend. But the hotel itself is very nice, the pool and spa were great. The rooms were large and had good amenities.

Requested for view of the old Quebec and was given it. Bed was nice and room was clean despite the hotel being a little old. Huge garden beside and walkable distance to all old Quebec attractions.

Half way through our stay here. The rooms are lovely and clean, and updated to modern expectations in an old building. Staff have been wonderful. Really good value for money. The only downside so far has been the restaurant (Louise Taverne &Bar a Vin). As we were checking in to the hotel this morning, other customers told us the place is lovely but not to eat here. We decided to go anyway, just wanting a drink while we waited for our laundry to dry… and we may have thought about eating there if all was ok. We were totally ignored, despite trying to attract the attention of the man in charge of the outside area (around a dozen tables, four of which were occupied). We asked someone else if we could sit down. They referred us to him. We waited while he cleaned a couple of tables, walked past us to talk to someone, walked inside and fiddled around in there for a while, walked out again and cleaned a couple more tables, went round us to get to another table where he rearranged the setting. Walked back to near where we were standing and then turned around to chat to some people he had served since we had been there. Don’t know what sort of self-important trip he was on but we left and will not return. But… that led to a delightful experience at 900 Rue Saint-Paul across the road (separate review coming).

Pros: Great hotel. Friendly staff. Great location. Accommodated us for our daughters late check out due to online schooling. Clean. Cons: no soap in bathroom. Mattress are hard.

We were delighted to stay in this new and very clean property twice on our way to and from the Maritimes. It was a very convenient stopover, close to the highway and other amenities. There is lots of free outdoor parking. The room (with 2 queens) was spacious and had everything we needed, including a small fridge. The bathroom was quite large. The outdoor pool was small (more of a hot tub), yet pleasant. Would definitely stay again.

Great location, easy access to the room both from outside and inside. The hotel is clean and modern. We had a good continental breakfast, where the hostesses were very prompt and helpful. We spent 3 days, we enjoyed our stay and we highly recommend this hotel.

The arrival at the hotel started badly with a young receptionist full of germs she kept spreading in her tissue and around (as if we did not just get out of a pandemic that showed us how far any virus can travel) and she started laughing at me in French (assuming that I do not speak over 10 languages including French) saying that I want a room taken by another customer: how rude of her to assume that. The older manager thankfully intervened and the room we checked in via the app was given to us, explaining to the manager, however sick from the road I was, that we did not want something extraordinary: - the room had the lines of the newly built hotels we stayed in the USA and just like in the USA, this room proved to have poor insulation between rooms, slamming doors and the trepidation noises on the hallways to make stuff vibrate in the room. Thankfully everything stopped soon after 10pm and we had a good night sleep only disturbed by the construction next door the following morning, however quiet those people were trying to operate their machinery - parking at the back of the hotel is safe and thankfully Google satellite helped us immensely with travelling to and from Quebec City trying to avoid the major road works happening just about everywhere - the hotel is located near a major shopping area and a Walmart great with icecreams and drinks we always like having - breakfast at the hotel included warm items and it was varied although people kept taking multiple tables to sit and talk: I guess the lower floors were rather busy since we hardly heard any talk up our floor - the manager was kind in thinking of sending a warm up gift, although I wish the young female receptionist would receive further training and stopped assuming things she wanted to assume about customers who effectively pay her salary

Issues: - No hot water in a room on the 6th floor. The hotel moved me to the right underneath, and still no hot water. The hotel manager called to offer me an upgrade to a bigger room on the 7th floor, but no guarantee having hot water. I declined because it's not solving the issue and I've already settled in. I said if she could first go check to ensure there is a hot shower in the room, they planned to move me to, then I never heard back. - Water marks on TV counter and also on the desk where the lamp is. - WiFi is not Hilton Honors, but Hilton Guest, similar issues to that of Marriott’s: still showing unsecured network with Novotel being the WiFi login landing page instead of Hilton Honors. - The room was dark, only with one light. Positives: - staff was polite One of rare hotels that the housekeeping did an excellent job. Unfortunately, it's unsatisfactory due to lack of hot shower, which is part of standard expected service, and the main reason for 2 out of 5 rating. Had it provided hot shower (not cold nor warm, but hot), this hotel would have earned at least 4 or 4.5 star rating.

This trip is considered to be the best value-for-money hotel, with new facilities, high-level rooms, and a comfortable stay. It is not inferior to other four or five-star hotels, but it is located in a small town and is a bit biased for tourism. It is actually a business accommodation Hotel, but it happened to be the way we passed by the itinerary, so staying for one night for a transition is very good
