"A grande-dame castle-style hotel open since 1893 with 610 rooms across six towers; many rooms feature wingback chairs, subtle gold accents and some have en suite fireplaces. The property houses three restaurants where fires roar all winter, and its culinary team has partnered with the region’s ice hotel on a temporary all-ice restaurant experience. Located in Québec City’s old town, it offers an atmospheric, historic base from which to stroll the winding, snow-dusted streets." - Michael Kaminer
