"The magnificent setting of the Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu, perched high on the Pointe-au-Pic bluffs overlooking the St. Lawrence River, is no coincidence. The location was specifically chosen by a Canadian shipping company that hoped to attract travelers aboard its new passenger vessels from Quèbec City in the late Victorian era. Resembling a grand ivy-clad French château, the luxury hotel is just as striking to behold today, not to mention easier to access. With hundreds of rooms and suites, indoor and outdoor pools, a state-of-the-art spa, an array of upscale dining venues, and easy access to outdoor activities from golf to winter sports, it’s an easy retreat that feels both modern and timeless." - Tablet Hotels
