  • nothing wrong with the grand times but please keep in mind it's better to be close to city core(old quebec) especially if you are a tourist coming for the first time. that is where you will spend your time exploring...it's sooo nice there!!
    not sure if this hotel is sold out yet or not...but here's a repost of that info...
    this is the hotel i found that i posted a couple pages before in this thread
    this is the closest one i found, perhaps not the cheapest
    330 Rue de la Couronne, Ville de Québec, QC G1K 6E6

    hey there
    thanks for the recommendation
    i actually booked this hotel a few days ago (through expedia because i coudlnt figure out how to get the site to display in english)

    anyway it says 30 minute walk on google. i dont mind a good walk if its through nice scenery- is this possible here?

    and how close is this hotel to old city to do some pre show sightseeing?

    thanks !

    NYCRATS: et al.
    You are likely at G. Times Lebourgneuf, ot the other is close to the Airport CYQB. Both of these are in a Power center / mall areas and thus are not good to explore and chill in the Downtown area. If you are 2 days, reconsider your location. I live by the Airport and its a 15-20 min drive to the nice hang out area.
    Look for a place in the New (Nouveau) Saint-Roch, and old Quebec proper IVO Carré d'Youville ex. Courtyard by Mariott Downtown, Palce Royal,
    ALL do not bother with other location than these two (location, not hotels per say, many, many small hotels are available that do not belong to big Banners/chains) afore-mentioned.
    BTW, i lives in Cole Harbour / Halifax to the Max from 2002-2009, i discovered Wintersleep + Arcade Fire at the Pop Explosion there

  • i got lost in translation on that post hoversmith ;)
    but i think what u r trying to say is stay in downtown old quebec
    the hotel @ hotelquebec.com is a best western and it's pretty much the closest one i found to the venue. the walk to the venue where pj play is not through old quebec.fyi
    BUT the best western isn't far from old quebec either. see goggle maps for anyone who doesn't understand.
    it's always nice to stay right in old quebec if you can but from my experience it will be more $ and even farther away from the venue that the best western.
    so i picked the best western cause it's basically walking distance to the venue and downtown(old quebec) not a short walk if but certainly do-able
    from what i remember the walk down the hill to old quebec is a breeze but walking up that massive hill is a pain in the ass at the end of the night! hello taxi!

    SORRY i think in french sometimes while i wtite in english.
    That Best Western in Saint-Roch (330 Rue de la Couronne) is a good location. An yes that hill is a healthy enterprise, but you planned well.
    Cheers
