Auberge Place d'Armes

The location was perfect. Centrally located in the heart of Old Quebec City. Very close to the visitor information office and to where many tours begin. The meals we ate at Les Jules were also excellent. We really appreciated the discount coupons that were offered as well. We also enjoyed the old world charm aspects of staying in a 17th century building.

We were on the top floor - described as being on the third floor, when it is really the 4th floor. This was difficult with 60+ stairs to climb and no elevator. Stairs are also steep and narrow (and there is one step that has a greater riser height than the others and we routinely tripped over it). One person in our party has a bad knee and this made the climb very difficult. It would be nice to have some type of lobby space to sit in or to be able to meet others in. The check in area is extremely small and easily gets crowded, especially as it is shared by those waiting to enter the restaurant - its a very congested area. It would be nice if that could be expanded somehow. We were also a bit concerned about fire exits from the top floor. Signs indicating the exit to the fire escape were through another room and could not be accessed with our room key. We were told this door would open in the case of a fire - not sure I believe that to be true. Especially if the fire takes our the control wiring that enables the door to open with the key card.
