How to Get There
Reviews
Excellent convention venue and overall a great hotel. perfectly situated above the train station and with easy Metro access. The hotel has been completely renovated with thoughtful, modern touches. Wish we could have stayed a few extra days. For the price, they should provide free internet access
We stayed at the Hotel, Gold floors. We had a great stay. The breakfast selection was good, as well as the appetizers. There was a lady who worked at the Gold Lounge. Her name was Karina. Her Customer service was impeccable. And the establishment is mostly getting this review from us as a result of this lady's customer approach and care!
A most pleasant venue for a three day conference, which was enhanced by a lovely spa, gym and pool for relaxing after the long day. The Artisan market inside the hotel is an added asset as you can purchase gourmet food, drinks, specialty chocolate, gifts and more without having to leave the comfort of the hotel. The location is central close to shopping, the station, tourist sights and cultural activities. The staff are genuinely welcoming and the room stylish and comfortable. I loved the view of the cathedral from my room and was so pleased our conference was held at the Fairmont.
We stayed here for 3 nights. Everyone from the moment we arrived at the main entrance were very warm and immediately assisted us.The bell boys especially were always nice, valet parking was seamless and the staffs at the artisan were very helpful. The only reason I took off 1 star was because at check in, I specifically asked if our 1 bedroom suite has a nice view and she answered YES! As this is our yearly spring break vacation, I always wanted it to be perfect! However, we were given a one bedroom suite with the view of the parking lot in the back. That was disappointing and I felt being lied to. Later, when our luggages was delivered, the gentleman had a little chat with us and he was very informative and friendly. He was also kind enough to call and find out if we could be moved. Over the phone, they told him that they assigned us to this suite because it was more quiet, and there was construction on the other side which will be noisy. They have only specific numbers of room with our room category. Ours have 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms.
As this was toward the end of our trip, we always book a high end hotel for the finale and we chose Fairmont due to its history and the recent renovation. We have stayed at the Fairmont in Quebec City before. We were at another hotel before this and our view was so much better and they had a binoculars in the suite. My son enjoyed it so much! Now, at Fairmont, ours was a corner suite with windows all around, but there was nothing nice to look at. If the lady at the front reception didn’t lie to me, it would have been a different story. We wasn’t given the option to upgrade either. Sometimes, it’s the experience and expectations that matter especially when this is our yearly spring break vacation. Thumbs up for all the staffs at Fairmont except for the young blond lady at the front check in reception.
Haven’t seen my girlfriend in 5 years and Queen Elizabeth staff made our weekend super awesome. Met by Caesar at the front desk and he made sure our room is comfortable for the two of us. Hangout at the Nacarat lounge in the hotel before diner and Najim (?) at the lounge recommended great cocktails and places to visit!!! Everyone is amazing we love it here!!!!
