LES LOFTS STE-ANNE, Quebec City

The lofts are right in the heart of Old Quebec, placing you steps away from the Morrin Centre and within a 5-minute walk of Vieux Quebec, Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, and the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Québec. The building overlooks the City Hall fountain and square, giving rooms views of the city landmarks. The neighbourhood is filled with restaurants, Christmas markets, and street performers. The bus stop is directly outside, though services run infrequently; a 15-minute walk (with some hills) reaches the Gare du Palais train station. A taxi from the station costs about CAD 10. The public parking at City Hall is just a 3-minute walk away. The area feels safe and secure, with all major attractions reachable on foot.

The lofts are individually laid out, with options ranging from open-plan studios to a spacious 2-bedroom penthouse that sleeps up to 6. Each comes with a private bathroom, air conditioning, soundproof walls, and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels. The kitchenettes are well equipped with a stovetop, fridge, dishwasher, Nespresso machine (pods provided), and cookware - ideal for full meal preparation. Family-focused units feature bunk beds in the hall (a queen bed in the closed bedroom plus a bunk) and, in some cases, a children's chalkboard. The penthouse has a separate children's playroom that can serve as an extra bedroom, plus a washer/dryer; other lofts have access to a free communal laundry room. No apartment has a balcony, but units with windows overlooking the square are very bright and offer fountain views. A free cot is available on request. The flats are clean and modern, with parquet floors and a decorative electric fireplace in many units.

There is no restaurant or dining facility on the property. Each loft's kitchenette includes a stovetop, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, and Nespresso coffee machine, making it easy to prepare breakfast, snacks, and full meals. The surrounding area offers a high density of restaurants within 0.5 km, including Les Freres de la Cote, La Buche, Chez Ashton, and several Italian and French bistros. The restaurant Alphonse is in the same building and offers a lunch special at CAD 25. Many lofts have a dining table with seating, and the fully stocked kitchenware makes self-catering practical for families or longer stays. Breakfast options can be found at nearby cafés or prepared in your loft.

The property does not have a spa, swimming pool, or fitness centre. For leisure, the location itself is the main draw - you are steps from Old Quebec's historic attractions, Christmas markets, and parks. Off-site activities available in the region include cycling (by arrangement), hiking, horseback riding, skiing, and tennis, all at additional charges or arranged independently. Board games are provided for in-room entertainment, and the building's central position means you can easily walk to cultural venues, the Morrin Centre, and the Plains of Abraham for outdoor recreation.

Free WiFi is available in all rooms. Check-in is fully self-service using access codes sent a few days before arrival, with no front desk but a host reachable by phone. Check-out is until 11:00, and luggage storage is provided if you need to explore later. Paid off-site parking is available at the City Hall lot (29 Côte de la Fabrique, CAD 17.50-20 per 24 hours) with no reservation needed and spaces for electric vehicles. Free laundry facilities are available on the second floor (except the penthouse, which has its own washer/dryer). Services include express check-in/out, private check-in, car hire assistance, and an elevator. Safety features include smoke alarms and fire extinguishers. Payment is accepted by American Express, Visa, and MasterCard. The property is non-smoking throughout and family rooms are available.
