La Malbaie hotellia

Plussat: Excellent

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Hosts, breakfast

Miinukset: Beds were a bit soft-would have preferred newer/harder mattresses

Plussat: If you like bric-a-brac and old houses with their charm and their disadvantages, this is the place for you. Not quite my style. The friendly owners and the breakfast with a lot of home made product made our stay very nice.

Plussat: Laurent was great in making dinner suggestions for the evening. The breakfast was all homemade with multiple,more than enough choices of what to eat. All was healthy and what couldn't be made here, was sourced locally. Fabulous stay. Highly recommend this home.

Miinukset: No complaints.

Plussat: One of the highlights of our trop through Quebec. Quentin and Laurent are super nice and welcoming. Their house and all the rooms are beautiful. Breakfast was amazing - everything was homemade and we ate out on the terrace. Did not want to leave...

Miinukset: Nothing - everything was perfect

Plussat: Hosts were fantastic. View from room/balconies was beautiful. Free standing bath in room!

Miinukset: Only slight thing is our room didn't have bedside tables. Not a massive issues as it was comfortable and beautiful but would be helpful to have.

Plussat: Sparkling clean and amazing home-made jam for breakfast

Plussat: Excellent location, quiet, view of the river, delicious breakfast, friendly and helpful service.

Plussat: Yes everything fine .very good breakfast.

Plussat: Very welcoming hosts. Excellent breakfast. Room very comfortable even if not very spacious . Fortunately the bad weather didn't last and in the morning we were able to enjoy (briefly!) the superb view from our little balcony.

Miinukset: Nothing really!

Plussat: Very nice facility, breakfast very well presented (could have been bigger). Excellent views of River especially from balcony. Excellent in-room coffee, great "round" shower, nice to have ceiling fan.

Miinukset: Hard to communicate in English, limited Ice provided

Plussat: Florence , owner. Location.

Miinukset: Not that I didn’t like it, but living room sitting with only a futon, or fold up chairs, not comfortable for sitting around chatting.

Plussat: Great location, beautiful auberge. Owners were super nice

Plussat: Beautiful home with a fabulous view of the St.Lawrence River !! Breakfast was delicious!! Sylvain was very helpful and accommodating !!! Great place to stay if you want to explore the Charlevoix region !!!

Plussat: Location is prime waterfront with an amazing view of the St Lawrence. Home is amazing with great furnishings , coffee bar , separate sitting areas. Host was always available, helpful , very nice always with a smile and great stories. Four coarse Breakfasts were to die for . This will be our go to place when in Malbaie.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect !

Plussat: Great house...near a marina directly on waterfront. Our room was superb..very nice size and great bathroom. Breakfast was absolutely wonderful. Thank you Sylvain for a great stay. We're definitely coming back!!

Miinukset: There was absolutely nothing I didn't like. First time we go to a B&B and we loved it!!

Plussat: Breakfast could be offered

Plussat: This hotel is very clean.

Miinukset: We booked a room with river view. The view came from a little break of a cross street house and a tree so you hardly can see anything. Not talking about, you need to open all the curtains to see outside. While you open all the curtains, there is a balcony around and every hotel guests can be there which makes the rooms has no privacy at all. The hotel is a remodel from an old house so everything is small. We went for the downstairs restaurant which they broadcasts served G7 spouses. After they served my husband’s French onion soup with beef barley soup with a peace of cheese bread on top. We felt we had enough.

Plussat: Rooms are small but certainly adequate. There is wonderful second floor verandah available to guests who are staying there.At the end of the day you can take a favourite beverage out and sit looking over the St.Lawrence! We met new people up there and enjoyed our conversations! The food compared to the best we had in Quebec and staff were attentive and friendly. While not inexpensive the value was there. We would not stay anywhere else in La Malbaie

Plussat: Nice, clean and modern room. We only stayed a night , but it was relaxing. We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was very delicious . Would recommend it.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful room. Bathroom had both shower and bath. It is great to have a nice restaurant on-site where locals come to enjoy dinner.

Plussat: Outdoor dining on the wrap around porch, looking onto lovely garden and river. Very helpful staff and great food.

Plussat: The food at the restaurant was amazing. There was only one vegetarian choice but it was excellente.

Miinukset: Would have like a fridge in the room.

Plussat: Gorgeous location

Plussat: It felt like home away from home. Warm & welcoming, the breakfast was great, sitting on the terrace with the view was priceless.

Miinukset: Not applicable

Plussat: The outdoor terrace and fire in the evening.

Plussat: The breakfast is good. The location is OK, as the town is quite small.

Miinukset: The ground around the house should be better.

Plussat: Staying in this delightful hotel is like living in a dream. The structure was probably in the past a holiday home of a wealthy family. The rooms are spacious, bright and really very nice. The privacy of each room is guaranteed. Each room has its own bathroom. The location of the hotel is fantastic and the view of the gulf that you can enjoy from the garden is spectacular. In the garden there is even a convivial corner where the property has installed a structure to light a fire and enjoy the company of other guests of the hotel. There is also a small swimming pool that we could not try for lack of time. The owner is very nice and helpful. In the hotel you can even buy tickets for the tour to see the whales! Without wasting so much time at the pier.

Miinukset: To say that I did not like it is a crime but if I have to find a small defect ... I must admit that the breakfast, although varied and abundant in quantity (self service) lacked a bit 'in the simplicity of presentation.

Plussat: A warm welcome from the owner and very helpful with information Stunning views from our room, loved the room we had so peaceful Sitting room cosy with log fire for colder days Short walk down hill to a few restaurants

Miinukset: The bed was very hard and not comfortable

Plussat: Exceptional proprietor/ host Alain. Fun, funny, charming. Excellent breakfasts, thoughtfully and creatively prepared with ample portions. Very convenient location for our purposes. Definitely a winner!

Miinukset: Did not know that credit cards were not accepted, only cash or check.

Plussat: Easy to find. Good parking. Beautiful accommodation, a most gracious host ... and a wonderful breakfast!! All you can ask for, will stay again.

Plussat: Washroom & shower facilities were clean and modern!

Miinukset: The breakfast was very minimal! Coffee was excellent however!

Plussat: The owner was delightful. Helpful and wRm and friendly. The breakfast was delicious. The room was very spacious and clean.

Plussat: Atmosphere.

Plussat: The Host/Owner was pleasant, informative, a wonderful cook and host.

Miinukset: We traveled during a pretty warm time of year, mid-July. We found this out beforehand, but there was no air-conditioning upstairs in the bedrooms. A nice fan was provided and with all the windows wide open, it was comfortable enough to sleep. The downstairs was air-conditioned as was the TV room and the four season room which was a wonderful place to relax and enjoy peaceful music.

Plussat: The breakfast, as described, was both delicious and copious! Alain, the owner, is a great host. The house is absolutely gorgeous and so is the surrounding area. Little secret beach at about a 15min walk is definitely worth it.

Plussat: Very European style....small cozy room with even smaller bath, an outgoing hostess and well appointed common area where guests may mingle. Very nice breakfast. Very clean and affordable. Staff have limited English, which is great for practising your conversational French. Unilingual anglophones may struggle if you need very detailed or complex information.

Plussat: Good breakfast. This B&B represents good value for money.

Miinukset: Did not dislike anything in particular.

Plussat: The view and the breakfast

Miinukset: the walls are very thin in that kind of houses, so we could hear everything in the other rooms.

Plussat: It is the most gorgious place...a lot of personality...

Plussat: The location was great. Breakfast marvelous. Hosts were friendly and helpful.

Plussat: Very clean. Welcoming hosts.

Miinukset: Creaking wooden floor in bedroom.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: it was very clean. Breakfast was good and affordable.

Miinukset: Outside the rooms there was a smell like manure.

Plussat: The room was clean.

Miinukset: The room was ok, but the walls were very thin, I would hear the guy next to us snore all evening, you could make out other's conversations as well. Not great if you want privacy.

Plussat: Excellent hosts and super yummy breakfast

Plussat: It was a pleasant stay and served my needs.

Miinukset: They were not responsible for the rain!!!

Plussat: Clean

Miinukset: Remote

Plussat: Staff was kind and courteous

Miinukset: Room was stuffy - there was only a tiny window to let in some air when we would get to our room in the evening, but being close to the road, it was also quite noisy, so we had to close it before going to bed. The bed was too soft. The bathroom fan made noise but didn't really help get the humidity out.

Plussat: the best motel in Quebec that I stayed in.

Miinukset: breakfast very poor

Plussat: The location is great, directly on riverside, the space of the room is good and the bed is comfortable. Nice small balcony to enjoy the sun going down.

Miinukset: The shower could have been a bit better.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Simple room

Plussat: Beautiful views. Hot tubs in scenic setting.

Miinukset: Noise from upstairs. In lower level units one can hear all the footsteps and bathroom noises from units upstairs.

Plussat: The restaurant at this location was excellent. Friendly stuff.

Plussat: Location, amenities (outdoor hot-tubs), first rate fine dining restaurant

Miinukset: Everything was near perfect!

Plussat: Everything was great

Miinukset: Room was very large and well planned and could have easily accommodated a king size bed ( also mattress was soft ). Overall great place to stay.

Plussat: The evening meal was superb and the breakfast excellent. The view from the restaurant was wonderful and we also had a good view from our room.

Miinukset: There was no shower gel just a shampoo/conditioner luckily I had some just in case!

Plussat: The dinner at the hotel was excellent Rooms were big and the shower was large View of the Si Lawrrence was breathtaking

Miinukset: Smoking by staff on our floor in the laundry rooms was disgusting

Plussat: The room was good and also the location.

Miinukset: The restaurant was disappointing. Not very vegetarian friendly. Breakfast was only Buffett and was not good.

Plussat: The food and service were excellent ,and the price was very reasonable .

Plussat: The view to the St-Laurence river, the cleanliness and the comfort of the room, the location. The amenities : restaurant, spa, massage, gym, free parking, etc.

Miinukset: The gym : two elipticals, one out of order the other one barely working, one out of order bike, two treadmills still working and some training machines that are in need of maintenance, a few fixed weights. One still standing billiard table in very poor condition, but the room is too small to be able to hit from every angle. A poker table and some chairs fit so much better in that room; also it could be a better idea as the casino closed the last poker table it kept for years.

Plussat: The spa was fantastic

Miinukset: They did not respect the check in time blaming it on booking and not taking responsibility even if I had received an email from the property a week before and while I was sent to the hospital in an ambulance someone from the staff robbed my gold Versace chain. The direction refused to believe it by saying maybe it was my mistake and that I never had the chain in the first place when I asked them to check the cameras to prove that I had it around my neck at check in they responded that they are not responsible for stollen or lost objects. What an easy way to wash their hands from having unhonest employees. Especially that they have proof that one of their employees went to my room alone after I was sent to the hospital. They offered me nothing ... didn’t even say sorry for the situation. I am heartbroken and disgusted by their reaction towards my situation.

Plussat: The quality and the variety of the food for breakfast. The nice view on the front balcony. The BBQ was available for our suppers.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Extra enjoyable breakfasts. Kitchen availability. Good location

Miinukset: Don't know

Plussat: Josée and her husband are incredible hosts and cooks, it was almost if we were received as family members. Although we came late at night they had no problems with it. Really quiet and very clean. Banana bread amazing!!!

Miinukset: Our room was a bit small. That being said, they do have larger rooms.

Plussat: 2 beds in the room, a little balcony to sit outside, it was quiet and clean.

Miinukset: The coffee at the restaurant is really light, doesn't taste coffee, more like tinted water.

Plussat: Price

Miinukset: Floor cracking

Plussat: Its location, its easy access and the way my special requests were handled.

Miinukset: I wish the dining room would deliver to the rooms!

Plussat: I will start by saying that location, views and grounds are beautiful, but my praise unfortunately stops there. Things started going wrong from the moment we arrived,as we struggled to find a spot in the parking lot, which is shared with patrons of the casino, thereby leaving us with no other choice but to use the valet service. I question why the parking lot is not divided so that hotel paying guests are not competing with casino goers for parking spaces.

Miinukset: We were told upon checking in at 5:15 pm that if we had not already made a restaurant reservation, the next service in the main restaurant was at 9:30pm. We were quite frankly astonished, and questioned why we had not been warned when booking our rooms to make our restaurant reservation well in advance. We were also surprised to find out that considering the size of the hotel, the only other option available to us were to eat at the lobby bar where we could getting “finger food” or to go to the casino restaurant. It never has it happen that we were required to make a restaurant reservation before actually arriving at the hotel.

Plussat: The whole place was great. We were there in a little bit of an off time but the hotel Is awesome. Would definitely go Back.

Miinukset: Bit of a hike from Quebec City but that aside it was great.

Plussat: Lovely hotel with all the amenities, a good thing because there is little else in the area.

Miinukset: The only free parking (included in the daily $25 resort fee) usually is up a steep hill (around 120 steps) because other lots filled with casino patrons. Alternative is $29/day valet parking. Food and drinks VERY expensive and not worth the price.

Plussat: Staff were very friendly and polite. The staff play a big part in the overall experience and everyone was amazing from checking to the bar area to the restaurant to the activity area. Really loved the winter / new years vibe. We will be back to see the summer soon.

Miinukset: Could add a tuck shop to for bottles water/chips and snacks. Kids were craving junk food.

Plussat: The building

Plussat: coziness; the fact that it gives the sensation of a solid building.

Miinukset: overpriced
