Amazing hotel, which caught us off guard! The layout and service was pretty much like a mini resort. The main lobby/restuarant was super clean and modern. As you walk through to the back there is a little hangout area with a wood burning fireplace. To your left, there is a little playground for the kids and a lookout Terrance. The swimming pool is located here too. The terrance overlooks the St. Lawrence River. There are nice lawn chair and hammock to sit on. You can also borrow bikes or walk down the road to the beach down below. I dont think you can swim because it is pretty rocky. But take a stroll on the evening and see the sunset. It would have been nice if they had a sidewalk where you can walk from the hotel to the beach below. It pretty dark and unsafe at night. There is also a bunch of entertainment in the evening but we didnt take part in. The hotel also offers a meal package consist of a 3 course fine dining and buffet breakfast. It is about $65 per adult and $25 per kid which includes tip. Well worth it if you wanted to stay in and eat. It would be nice if one alcoholic beverages was included. The rooms, I can't really say much. They were modern and clean. It has all the amenities you need but the bathroom which only had a toilet and shower was small and plain compared to the rest of the room. It could use a bit of TLC. Also the noise travels in these units. We had kids above us and we can feel and hear them running around. We have children too but had the ground floor. Over all good stay. Definitely a place to relax and unwind with kids.

Gorgeous large hotel with the best patio EVER! This hotel is much larger than what it looks like from the street. Checking-in was super fast and the room was ready ahead of time! Parking can be a little tricky as they have an on-site restaurant which is popular with locals as much as it is with the hotel’s guests. There are, however, a couple of parking lots across the road should the ones by the hotel be filled. Be very aware when crossing the road as it is well travelled and people drove very fast as they attempt to climb the hill! Our room was on the second floor with a balcony overlooking the water. The balcony is split with a partions between rooms. The hotel is up on a cliff, there is a road below leading to parks, grown up swing sets, a playground, and the beach. You can walk or drive down to the beach. Our room was beautifully decorated. The bed was super comfortable. The sink is separate from the bath and toilet which is convenient when travelling with someone. The pool is inside and is awesome. There is also a hot tub and a sauna. You can get your pool towels from the person working the desk at the pool. There are large windows overlooking the patio and restaurant area and the water! Very pretty. There are two restaurants on site and a bar located on the patio. There are a lot of different seating options on the patio, many of which have fire pits by them. The sunsets are mind blowing from this hotel!! Walking the beach below is also fun especially if you like collecting pretty rocks and shells.

It is a lovely place to go and stay, a real gem that I do honestly plan to revisit and have a longer stay to better enjoy the property. My stay earlier this week however had a few key misses for me that for a one night stay made quiet an impact on the short amount of time I was there for. Staff was friendly and being a native English speaker I had no trouble getting help from the team in English which was a big bonus for me! The rooms were nice and the AC worked well which on a very hot humid day was excellent to have. I wish there was more seating/lounges on the terrace, there is a lot of empty space on the deck and the furniture that is there is clustered together. Having more intentional planning and options would enhance this space for use. We stayed in the Cite building and found we could hear those in the room above us and beside us quite clearly (footsteps and banging mostly), it wasn't a problem once it seemed everyone had turned in, but in the early evening it was quite a nuisance to hear every step other people were taking. The specific issues I had during my stay was; 1. Had dinner one the deck and the menu was not at all comprehensive enough for someone with allergies and food sensitivities to make an informed choice. Nachos did not state that jalapenos were included, so I asked if they could be remade without which the server said yes, she then came to our tables to tell us after she had already submitted the new order of nachos to then tell me because the jalapenos were mixed with all the other veggies all I was going to be getting was chips with melted cheese on them. I was not given the option to switch what I wanted with this information in mind, I was told I could order something new but would pay for the nachos anyways. When the new plate of "nachos" came it was missing sour cream which I had to wait for 10 minutes for and then was charged for that sour cream on my final bill. 2. The Ameretto Sour on the menu was not a true Ameretto Sour and was barely tolerable as it seems like it was just the liquor and lemon juice (no simple syrup or egg whites), but after the issues with my nachos I didn't attempt to bring this to the server's attention. The server was very kind and nice but I no longer had confidence in having positive resolutions presented. 3. We had an issue with the toilet in our room becoming blocked, made a call to the front desk and was told they would send someone. 45 minutes later we had to call again and spoke to a different person who seemed aware that we had called a while ago but that someone "should have been there in 5-10 minutes". We had to wait a further 20-25 minutes before someone finally came to the room to assist and by this point it was past 10pm

Paid for a room with a view of the seaway. Got a view of a wall, unless you went near the window, and then you could see the water from an angle. WiFi didn’t work in the room. Not enough parking. There were a few events that day so I get that lots of people were taking the parking. But shouldn’t they have reserved parking for guests? Went to use the fridge and there was food left from a prior guest. That happens I suppose. But it tells you about the kind of hotel you are at. Room was comfortable. But layout and amenities below the standards of even a lower level chain hotel. eg, hooks instead of hangers; sink in room rather than in washroom. This is rated a 4 star hotel. It is not 4 stars. The view from the deck is impressive. As is its proximity to the water. But access to the water is free. Anyone can drive there (and should) and walk along the shore. It is beautiful. This is an expensive hotel. Better to stay at an inexpensive spot somewhere else in town, save some money, and drive to the water for a stroll.

Beautiful views of the river, though the lovely patio was also angled in so not a private feeling to the room. Great quality curtains though to easily close when changing. Rooms look recently renovated and a very appreciated feature vs most hotel rooms is that the air con is located high up and does not blow on the beds! The sink is separate from the toilet/shower room which is useful though noisier If someone washes up after others have gone to bed. Restaurant on site very nice with friendly staff. Spanish coffee delicious and kids meals were $15 and had a nice little filet mignon. Drawbacks: they gave the kids Brussels sprouts (lol really? What kid will eat these???) and the area smelt like farmers recently fertilized sadly so our outdoor patio was kept locked to keep the smell away! Pillows for me were way too soft - like giant marshmallows, but some would like this.

I don't know why this hotel doesn't have stars, but honestly the quality is higher than many hotels that have 3 or 4 stars. The rooms are spacious, very well maintained, luxurious decoration, high quality material, very clean, microwave available, good quality cafe maker, large choices of cafe and tea in the room, etc. However, there are different choices of rooms. We tried it twice and both times our stay was idyllic. We will remember our stay forever. If it was open for the winter, we would love going there. Unfortunately, it's seasonal and opens in May. The view from the terrasse is amazing 😍 We tried it during the night as well. So cozy and romantic. My kids loved the pool. Hot tub, sauna, and spa are available. The price is fair. A bit higher than other motels and small hotels, but, it is definitely worth it !
