40 Things To Do In Quebec City: Top Attractions To Hidden Gems

Don’t know what to do in Quebec City? Well you’ve come to the right place.

I used to think there wasn’t much to do in Quebec City, but after living there for a month my perspective completely changed. I mean there’s just so so much rich history to discover here. I’m still discovering new things to do in Quebec City today – it’s unreal how much there actually is to do in this city!

So are you ready for the biggest list of things to do in Quebec City you’ve ever seen!? Here’s all the things to do in Quebec City from the main attractions all the way to hidden gems.

How Long To Stay In Quebec City Canada

As I said, Quebec City is small. Typically, it’s recommended to visit for only a day or two – and that’s how I’ve visited Quebec City Canada in the past.

And one or two days is realistically more than enough time to visit all the main Quebec City activities. Like seeing Old Quebec, the citadel, walking along the Plains of Abraham and even going to a museum.

But, if you really want to explore Quebec City, and delve deeper into it’s history by going on an easy day trip, then there’s more than enough to do for up to 3 or even 4 days!

Decide how many Quebec City activities you’re interested in doing to see how many days you’ll need.

The Top 12 Things To Do In Quebec City

If you’re visiting Quebec City Canada for the first time, or have a limited time to explore, here are the top things to do in Quebec City!

1. Go On A Walking Tour Of Old Quebec

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – walking tours are the best thing to do in any new city, and Quebec City is no exception!

It’s a great way to find out the history of Quebec City, and visit all the main locations on this list. It’s kind of like a cheat code to Old Quebec highlights.

Unfortunately, there aren’t free walking tours but we loved our tour from the Quebec Tourism Office. We bought the tickets online through Viator.

2.Walk Along The Quebec City Walls & See The Old Gates

Old Quebec is the only fortified city in North America north of Mexico where the walls still exist. So that’s a pretty cool reason to visit Quebec on it’s own!

The walls are still in tact because for centuries they were scared that the Americans were going to attack.

You can’t miss the old city walls – it’s 4.6 km long that protects the upper town of Old Quebec.

Although driving or walking by the city walls is cool, you also want to make sure to walk on the city walls themselves – just please be careful! You get some pretty neat views from here (both of Old Quebec, downtown, and the surrounding area).

3. Get Lost In The Streets Of Old Quebec

I hate when a blog just tells me to walk around in the area as a must do. Like, I’m going to be doing that anyway on my way towards places…. But, as much as I hate to say it, in Old Quebec it really is a must do!

There are so many streets in Old Quebec but I find you always end up walking on the same one or two streets.

You never really need to walk anywhere else, mainly because all but four streets actually lead you to a dead end. But just because they lead you to a dead end doesn’t mean you shouldn’t discover them.

I mean, the streets in Old Quebec are just beautiful, the buildings are frozen in time. You never know where you’re going to end up and you end up finding some hidden parks or famous homes where some Quebec famous person was born.

If you’re travelling during high season, it’s another way to escape the crowds for a bit to enjoy the city in peace.

4. Walk Along Rue Saint-Jean For Shopping & Coffee

One of the main streets you’ll end up walking on Rue Saint-Jean. It’s hard to miss, it has a lot of shops and restaurants. It will also bring you straight into Old Quebec towards the Frontenac if you follow it.

5. Walk Along Dufferin Terrace

Dufferin Terrace is the English influence in Quebec City. Notice the Gazebos all named after British Royalty? These are actual band stands as they’re known in England… but we’re not fancy enough here to call them that!

Dufferin Terrace is all about views: the view across the St. Lawrence River towards Levis and Ile D’Orleans, the view of the citadel, and of course the Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac.

6. Admire The Fairmont Chateau Frontenac (& Go On A Tour)

The Chateau Frontenac is skyline view of Quebec City. It’s the focal point of everything in Quebec City, could you ever imagine the skyline without it? Needless to say, it’s one of the main Quebec City activities.

The original building is from 1893 and it was always a hotel – although it was not nearly this grand. In fact, the final building that we see today was only complete in 1993.

Of course you have to make a point to visit it up close! Feel free to even walk inside to see the lobby, go to the restaurant, or even do some shopping.

But, the best way to see and learn more about this famous hotel is to go on a guided tour.

7. Walk Down The Breakneck Steps (L’Escalier Casse Cou) Into Petit Champlain

Petit Champlain is the place you’ve been looking for in Old Quebec. You know the small cobblestone streets with the string lights that light up at night? Well, this is it!

You can either get here by paying for the funicular, but the more iconic way is to go down the Break Neck Steps.

They were given their name for the obvious reason – that it will break your neck going down!

Joking! they’re a perfectly normal staircase.

But they’re broken up with platforms to give you a gorgeous view of Petit Champlain. So make sure to not forget your camera when you visit!

It’s more than just a pretty street too, they have a few Quebec restaurants and this is the spot to pick up your locally made souvenir.

8. Discover Lower Town: Place Royale, Spot The Giant Frescos

The other part of lower town that you’re interested in is Place Royale. This is the old town square, where Quebec became well, Quebec!

And what town square isn’t complete without their token church! Notre-Dame-des-Victoires was named after all of Quebec’s battle victories and it’s one of the oldest in North America. You might be able to inside the church, if it’s open.

Around the corner from the town square you’ll find some even older town ruins and a giant fresco. See if you can spot and name the founders of Quebec!

9. Walk Along The Citadel (& Go On A Tour?)

The Citadel is actually kind of easy to miss in Quebec City Canada… mostly because it was designed to not be seen.

The citadel was built as a city within a city – you could house close to one thousand people inside and it had all the important city amenities. You know, like a hospital, and jail of course!

Today it’s actually still an active army base but they’ve opened it up for guided tours. With your ticket you also get access to the 22 Regiment Museum.

What To Do In Quebec City If You’re Pressed For Time – Tip!

If you’re pressed for time, I recommend skipping the citadel tour and museum. Instead, head to the pedestrian entrance of the Citadel – it will look like a creepy tunnel.

Here, there will be information plaques set up with pretty much all the information you learn on the tour.

To be honest, the inside of the citadel wasn’t as interesting as I thought it would be. You do get a good view of the Fairmont and Dufferin Terrace though.

10. Walk Along The Plains Of Abraham

The Plains of Abraham today is essential a giant park. But with LOADS of history, views, and monuments throughout. This is where the battle took place in 1759 that changed the faith of Quebec when the British beat the French.

Today, you can walk along trails finding the different artillery and viewpoints. Some highlights are the Martello Towers, Joan of Arc Gardens, and Grey Terrace.

If you want more information, you can also head to the Plains of Abraham Museum where they go into more details about life in the 1700s and the wars that happened in Quebec. It’s a very interactive museum, good for kids as well!

What To Do In Quebec City: Plains of Abraham Pro Tip…

The Plains of Abraham are great to simply walk through, but I recommend actually driving through to all the different spots because it’s quite a big park!

There’s an app you can download that shows the points of interest and gives you some more information. Download the My Mobile Plains App.

Or if you’re traveling to Quebec City Canada during high season (summer), you can also sign up for a guided van tour of the Plains through the museum.

11. Try Local Delicacies: A Poutine Or Tortière

I don’t know if I would call Poutine a delicacy but it’s definitely a must try in Quebec City Canada. Fries, cheese curds and gravy to warm it all up – what else can you ask for!?

You can pretty much find this at any Quebec restaurant. If you’re looking for different options though (like vegetarian gravy), head to Poutineville in Place D’Youville just outside the city walls.

12. Visit Montmorency Falls

Montmorency Falls are kind of a must see if you’re visiting Quebec City Canada. These magnificent falls are only 15 minutes away by car from Old Quebec!

Did you know they’re the tallest falls in Quebec and the 8th tallest falls in Canada!? They’re even taller than Niagara Falls in Ontario by 100 ft!

It’s open all year round, but in the summer there are a few more activities that are offered. You can hike to the top of the falls, zip line, or even take the gondola across the falls!

Some Other Popular Things To Do In Quebec City

If you find yourself with some more time, or it’s your second or third time visiting the city, here’s even more things to do in Quebec City! These are still quite popular Quebec City attractions, keep reading to discover some hidden gems!

13. Explore The Musee du Fort

Musee du Fort is the museum to go to in Quebec City. Unfortunately it was temporarily closed when we were visiting.

At the museum, it’s all about their light show performance they put on about the battle of the plains of Abraham.

14. Explore An Underground Castle (Saint-Louis Forts and Châteaux National Historic Site) (Summer Only!)

Instead of walking along Dufferin Terrace go beneath it! Although the Chateau Frontenac was never actually castle, it was sort of built on one. So there are underground ruins to explore!

The actual Frontenac made his home here and this is where Louis IX built his castle and the original city walls. The ruins are owned by Parks Canada. Unfortunately it’s only open during the summer months.

15. Continue Your Walk Along Les Promenades Des Gouverneur

You might come to the end of Dufferin Terrace and see some stairs and think that it isn’t worth it to walk up all those steps! You’re wrong! This is one of the nicest (and coolest) walks you can do in Quebec City!

The stairs turns into another boardwalk that takes you along the citadel walls. Don’t forget to look behind you for the view at all times. It’s epic to say the least.

You’ll eventually make it to the top which will have the St. Lawerence lookout Gazebo and you’ll actually b in the Plains of Abraham! Go you!

Instead of turning back to return to Old Quebec, you can walk along the Plains of Abraham which will lead you to the Citadel and Old Quebec.

16. Explore The Old Port

The Old Port in Quebec City Canada isn’t exactly pretty, but there are a few attractions that are worth checking out in the area.

Fun facts though, Quebec City’s Old Port was the largest in Canada with 21 shipyards in their hey day!

A popular spot is Café du Monde, a restaurant along the St. Lawerence river with floor to ceiling windows – it’s beautiful to say the least! You can opt to come here just for a coffee with a view, or for a full meal!

If you’re visiting in the summer, you can also head outside to La Cour arrière du Festibière to try local microbrews and dip your feet in the pool. You can even opt to swim in the Old Port at the first harbour bath in North American at Bassin Louise.

Or keep it simple and can pick up food and head to the Place des Canotieres for a picnic in the park (still with gorgeous views!).

17. Go Antique Shopping Along Rue Saint Paul

Rue Saint Paul is probably the final street of Old Quebec part of the Old Port. This area is all about art galleries and antique shops.

Needless to say, if you’re looking for that one of a kind souvenir, this is the place to come. It’s antique shop after antique shop here!

18. Go To An Exhibition At The Museum Of Civilization

The museum of Civilization is one of the main museums in Quebec City.

They have permanent exhibits about Quebec, Canada, and First Nations. It’s a good alternative to a walking tour, or if you need something to do inside on a rainy or cold winter day.

You might get lucky with their temporary exhibits – when we were visiting it was all about Poop! You might say gross, but it was actually really interesting and fun to learn about!

Unfortunately though, their second temporary exhibit at the time (all about Pharaohs) was only in French. So double check before buying tickets that it’s bilingual. You might also be able to pay for an English guided tour instead.

19. Learn About Quebec Politics At The National Assembly (A.K.A. Parliament!)

This is probably the only tour I haven’t done in Quebec City Canada, but that’s just because I’m like really not interested in politics. But the National Assembly offers daily tours in English and in French.

If you’re like me though, you can also opt to simply walk around the Parliament finding and admiring all the statues of our prime ministers. If you’re visiting in the summer, they also keep up a beautiful garden!

P.S. can you find the only women in the sea of men!?

20. Go To The National Museum Of Fine Art Of Quebec

Every city has their token fine arts museum, the Musée National des Beaux Arts du Québec is Quebec City’s.

They have permanent and temporary exhibits with a focus on Canadian and Quebec artists, including a permanent exhibit on Inuit art.

21. Head To The Observatory For A Full 360° View

Looking for the best view of Quebec City and its surroundings? One of the best places to do that is from the tallest building in the city: the Observatoire de la Capital.

They tried to set up an exhibit with some information about Quebec and some videos… those aren’t worth it and it’s simply just nauseating. If you’re going to come here, just know that it’s a $15 view. There are some seats, so maybe pack some snacks to enjoy the view for a bit!

Although they give you an incredible view, if you want better value for your money, I recommend going to the next place on my list…

22. Revolve Around The City For Drinks: Ciel! Bistro-Bar

Ciel! Bistro-bar is a revolving restaurant a part of the Loews hotel. It’s not as high as the Observatoire de la Capitale but it’s a lot better value for your money – plus it’s open at night!

The food at the restaurant itself is pretty expensive, but the drinks are very reasonably priced… see where I’m going with this!?

Head to Ciel! Bistro-bar for a 360 degree view of the city, an experience at a revolving restaurant, and some good drinks!

If you want to enjoy the view during the day, you can also come here for brunch!

23. Find Hidden Nouvelle France In Lower Town

What I love about this spot is that if you don’t know it exists, you’ll never see it! There are two ways to get to Nouvelle France, one is simply by turning off of Rue Notre Dame. Or you can head through the Passage de la Batterie from Rue Sous-le-Fort.

Passage de la Batterie will bring you through a small tunnel (make sure to watch your head) to an example of Nouvelle France.

Nouvelle France is what Quebec was known as. This is an example of what the street and buildings used to look like. Today, each house can only be owned by a local and cannot be rented out for short term stays. Each apartment has a family name associated with it as well, representing the family that used to live there.

24. Family Fun At The Aquarium!

There’s an aquarium to visit right outside the city centre – although I’m always hesitant to recommend these activities. But I’ll admit it’s good fun and learning experiences for families.

The Aquarium of Quebec does have a focus on conservation and the well being of their animals. They don’t have any large whales, but among their fish and sharks, they also have different seals and walruses.

They also have arctic wildlife like arctic foxes, birds of prey, and yes even two polar bears. They did in fact recently enlarged their enclosure for their two polar bears.

A heads up if you’re planning on visiting on a rainy day – half of the enclosures outside…

25. Visit Ile D’Orleans [Better In The Summer!)

Ile D’Orleans is the Island you’re looking at from Quebec City Canada. It’s across the creepy bridge in between the St. Lawerence River!

It’s all about the food on Ile D’Orleans. In the summer buy fresh berries (or even go berry picking!) and go apple picking in the fall.

There’s also a few wineries that you can visit on the island. I like Cassis Monna & Filles which is wine made with Cassis (red currants). You can also sign up for the Ile D’Orlean food tour that leaves from Quebec City if you don’t have a car.

If food isn’t your thing, you can also drive around the Island checking out the 6 different towns and the views of the St. Lawerence River.

Hidden Gems In Quebec City That No One Tells You!

Now if you really don’t know what to do in Quebec City because you’ve visited so many times, or are just looking for some different things to do, these next Quebec City activities are for you!

26. Do A Night Time Crimes Or Ghost Tour

If you already know the history of Quebec City Canada, why waste your time learning about it again on a walking tour. Instead! go on a crime walking tour at night (like this one from Viator).

You’ll delve deeper into the dark past of Old Quebec, and let me tell you, there’s a lot to unearth!

There’s also a ghost tour you can sign up for – their ticket office is located in Petit Champlain.

27. Pay Homage To The Draveur – The Hidden Statue In Old Quebec!

Next to the second most prominent buildings of the Quebec City skyline (the Price building), is quite possibly one of the best – and most significant – statues in the city.

This is not just another statue of a founder or political leader (boring!), this commemorates young men who had one of the hardest jobs of the 20th century.

These are the Draveurs, the Coureurs du Bois, or Log Drivers in English. Starting in the 1930s, young men would ride on log rafts with a giant pole – guiding the wood down the river. They brought wood to the cities and to paper mills and saw mills when there were no roads that led from the forest.

This profession went into the 90s when it was finally banned due to the impact it had on the ecosystem. But it was actually a very taxing job and many log drivers didn’t survive – which is why there’s so little knowledge about it today. The average was 12 years working as a Draveur.

Today, it’s a rather forgotten job of Quebec but one that was nonetheless very important.

28. Find Where The Cannonball Tree Once Stood!

There was a time when people flocked to Quebec City Canada to see the famous bomb in a tree.

There was a theory that the bomb was from 1759 when the British hit Quebec with bombs. It’s believe that it was buried and eventually the growth of the American Elm made it resurface in its roots.

But, it was most likely a defused and anchored bomb that used to be place in the road to protect the stone houses from horse drawn carriages… a little less exciting as a history!

Regardless, it was still pretty cool to see a bomb grown into a tree.

Unfortunately, the tree had to be cut down in 2021 because it was deemed unsafe. The tree was over 100 years old and was dying. To avoid any injuries, the city decided to remove it and put up an art piece to pay homage to the tree.

The tribute was supposed to be added in 2022… but it wasn’t there when I visited in November.

29. The Morrin Centre – English History Of Old Quebec

The Morrin Centre is hands down my favourite thing to do in Quebec City, I don’t know why this isn’t on more lists.

The Morrin Centre is quite possible the most interesting building in all of Quebec (in my mind anyway!). Starting out as a mixed prison for men, women, and children in the centre of town. Then once they realized that was a bad idea, it became a Protestant Anglophone University.

After the University close it was abandoned for about 100 years until it became the museum you can visit today. They offer daily tours and access to the largest English library in Quebec City (p.s. the English population of Quebec City is only 2% now…).

They still have an original jail cell and university rooms. It’s an interesting combination to say the least!

P.S. If you’ve read the books Bury Your Dead by Louis Penny, apparently this is the place she was referencing in her novel. If you want to read it before your visit – see it on Amazon.

30. Tour The Pole Culturel De Monastre D’ Ursuline (Ursuline Museum)

The Saint Ursuline Monastery might just be one of the oldest buildings and oldest institutions in Quebec City as well. It’s grown quite a bit over the years from 1644 – when it started as a single house. It’s now made up of several buildings and courtyards.

The Ursuline are an important part of Quebec history – especially for girls. They are the oldest school for girls in North America (as always – North of Mexico!).

And they didn’t just teach prayer and home economics – these girls were taught everything from reading and writing, to physics, chemistry, and even mechanics!

Plus, the Ursuline Nuns also learned First Nations languages to be able to teach girls from First Nations communities.

You can tour one of the buildings which they’ve turned into a museum with artifacts dating back to the 1600s and learn a bit about life in this all girls boarding school.

Today it’s still a primary school although no longer boards students and they’ve opened it up to boys as well.

31. Spend A Relaxing Day At The Augustine Monastery

Did you know there’s a spa in the middle of Old Town Quebec, and it’s run by nuns!?

There is so much to unpack at the Augustine Monastery. For starters, these sisters started the first hospital in Quebec: The Hotel Dieu. The sisters were the nurses who took care of the patients.

For centuries, they’ve had a focus on health and well being. Whether it was eating properly or taking care of their patients in the hospitals. Over the years, although they cannot be official nurses without a degree, they can still care for the family of patients, and focus on wellness… which is how the spa comes in.

So, you can actually stay here (oh ya, it’s also a hotel – see it on booking.com!), or get a day pass for their spa. Which includes a free meal in their restaurant.

Or, if you’re pressed for time, simply head to the museum to learn more about the sisters. I recommend the tour, it’s included in your ticket.

32. Enjoy The View From Montmorency Park

Montmorency Park can easily go unnoticed but it’s actually quite important to Old Quebec history. If you take the stairs down to Lower town, go across the bridge instead of continuing down the stairs towards Petit Champlain.

This is the location of the original defence system of Quebec. All those canons were here even before the citadel of Quebec was ever built.

Perhaps even more important, you get some great view from the park. If you look any way in the part you get an exceptional view: either of the Chateau Frontenac towering above you, or of the St. Lawerence River below.

Plus, if you walk a bit further along the city walls, you’ll get a view of the Old Port from above!

33. Follow The St. Charles River To Cartier Brébeuf

The St. Charles River flows for 30 kms from the St. Lawerence starting in Quebec’s Old Port until Lac St. Charles. And, you can walk the entire way on the 30 km trail!

Okay, so you don’t have to walk the whole way, but it is nice to stroll along the river for a bit. Plus, if you’re up for it, you can make it to Cartier Brébeuf.

Cartier Brébeuf is a historical place just outside Old Quebec. Today it’s a beautiful park with water flowing through and picturesque views of the skyline.

But before this was ever a park, it was actually a meeting point for the French and First Nations. During the summer, you can find out more at the Learning Centre.

34. Swap Rue Saint-Jean For Rue Saint-Joseph

Don’t get me wrong, Rue Saint-Jean is adorable, but it’s also a major tourist attraction. If you want more local vibes, head to the Saint Roch neighbourhood to walk along Rue Saint-Joseph.

You’ll find local shops and restaurants here (and some of the best coffee in all Quebec City).

My favourite spots are Fanamanga for delicious bubble tea and Nektar Cafeologue for coffee. If you’re looking for some next level ramen, head to Tora-Ya or Honō Ramen. If you’re into board games, then you have to check out La Revanche for a board game night!

Plus, it’s beautiful just to admire the architecture, there’s one building that makes me feel like you’re in the Harry Potter scene with the dragon (you know which one I’m talking about!).

Rue Saint-Joseph is about a 20 minute walk from Old Quebec.

35. Or Check Out The Giant Lampshades Of Avenue Cartier

Avenue Cartier is another option instead of Rue Saint Joseph, although it’s a bit further – closer to a 30 minute walk instead. You might want to consider driving instead of walking here.

The main attraction of Avenue Cartier are the giant lampshades that take over the street and are beautiful to admire. There are also some local cafes and restaurants here.

36. If It’s Too Cold Or Raining: Head To The Mega Park Or Valcartier

If you’re looking things to do in Quebec City on a rainy day or cold winter day head to Mega Park or Valcartier.

Mega Park is closer than Valcartier and still gives you more than enough things to do for the day inside (15 minute drive vs. 35 minute drive). They have everything, they’re essentially indoor amusement parks!

Mega Park is purely indoors with different rides, arcade games, and it’s also the only place to experience Quebec skating during the summer time with an indoor skating rink!

Valcartier is more like an entire vacation village. It’s a bit further, but you can even stay here (see hotels on booking.com). They have an entire indoor water park here… if that’s not cool I don’t know what is! Plus this is where they set up the famous ice hotel in the winter.

37. Don’t Just Stay On The Ferry, Actually Visit Levis Quebec

One of the popular things to do in Quebec City is to take the Levis-Quebec Ferry for outstanding views of the Quebec City skyline. And I don’t disagree.

But what no one else tells you is that you can get off the ferry to explore the city of Levis Quebec.

In fact, before Quebec City was ever on the map, it was all about Levis. That’s because this is where the train station was (it was decommissioned officially in 1930s).

So although it isn’t much today, there are still a few spots worth visiting (and you might even get a better view off the ferry!). Read my full post on what to do in Levis Quebec here.

38. Spend A Day At The Beach : Beaupré

It’s no secret that I’m not a beach person (I mean, I’m the person who came up with things to do in Miami that aren’t going to the beach…).

Needless to say, I have not gone to this beach but I’ve heard it’s a good hang out spot in the summer. Plus, it’s one of the only beaches in the area.

P.S. if you’re looking for summer beaches, you can also head to Ile D’Orleans.

39.Visit Montmorency Falls AT NIGHT!

Montmorency falls are probably one of the most popular things to do in Quebec City. If you missed it, it’s actually in the top 12 on my list of Quebec City activities (jump back to them here)!

I mean, to have such an impressive water fall so close to the city is insane. If you’ve already visited the falls, or looking for something to do at night, there’s nothing stopping you from checking out Montmorency Falls at night.

The falls are completely open at night – obviously it’s at your own risk… And I’m not going to lie, it’s kind of terrifying at night. But it’s also really cool! There’s no one there (we went in the fall, it might be busier in the summer).

The falls are lit up with changing colours making them even more epic! It’s free to go inside, but of course, there aren’t any activities or amenties at night! We just walked along the boardwalk, and there are some benches to sit and enjoy the view!

40. Learn About The Huron-Wendat In Wendake Village

If you know the story of Canada, you know that the First Nations were on this land first. And Quebec was no exception.

The Wendat lived here for centuries and still do today – known as the Huron-Wendat. Only 20 minutes from Old Quebec, you’re able to visit their community and learn about their history, traditions, and their lives today.

Somehow I’m still discovering more things to do in Quebec City each day that passes! So I’m very excited to visit again one day and add even more Quebec City activities to the list!

P.S. Need A Place To Stay In Old Quebec?

I’ve visited Quebec City and stayed in a few places over the years, here are my recommendations.

If you’re on a budget but want to stay in the city centre, there’s no better place than Au Petit Hotel (see it on Booking.com). It’s a small but mighty hotel and for a night or two it gets the job done! Plus, you’ll feel like you’re staying in old time Quebec when you stay here!

I’ve also stayed just outside Old Quebec at the Hilton Québec. If you’re going to stay here, you have to upgrade your room to one with a view. This way, you’ll have floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Chateau Frontenac, plus you’ll have all the luxuries of staying in a hotel. It’s not far from Old Town either, only about a 5 minute walk. See it on Booking.com.

I’ve also heard only good things about the Clarendon Hotel in Old Town Québec. It’s be a bit pricier than Au Petit Hotel, but it’s also a more regular size hotel room. Plus, this is THE location to be in Quebec City. See availability and room rates on Booking.com.

For more accommodation options in Quebec City on Booking.com, or for more recommendations read my blog post.
