Hotel 71

Encased in the 19th century, Neoclassical building that was once home to the National Bank of Canada, Hotel 71 holds its own piece of history in its heritage-rich setting, where cobblestone streets and the St. Lawrence River are never far from reach.

Quebec City is bristling with atmospheric restaurants, cafes and architectural gems, all moments from Hotel 71, where taking a step back to unwind is the order of the day. After dipping into the nearby Musée de la Civilisation, or venturing to Petit Seminaire Chapel and Place Royale, Hotel 71 beckons with its expertly styled, contemporary guestrooms that invite pure, peaceful relaxation.

When it’s time to dine, choose a table in the Il Matto Restaurant and watch the chefs at work in an open kitchen, whetting your appetite for satisfying Italian plates including pasta, pizza and other irresistible delights. If it’s a quick caffeine fix you seek, there’s a coffee lounge, open 24 hours a day, or energise yourself with a workout in the small gym on-site.

Another interesting part of Hotel 71 is its art collection, showcasing works by the Vincent et Moi program that supports artists living with mental illness, and you can even purchase some of the pieces if you wish.
