Front desk is bilingual in French and English. Everyone from the front desk to the maids were kind, considerate and polite. Decor was unique and reflects the culture of the area. Personally, I loved the decor because it reminded me of the Pacific NW. The designers did a good job incorporating Native culture with modern design. I would have liked to see an actual dresser vs a table under the tv for storage. That is my only complaint.

“Excellent stay !”

Place is insane and staff is very friendly and professional. It was super easy to book a room. The room and every building was extremely clean. Room Service was on point and we are eager to visit again!

“Nice place, great area for a weekend getaway. Convenient location.”

My husband and I were there for our 30th anniversary weekend. First time at this hotel. We did the Onhwa Lumina package plus the Kwe package. The hotel is very nice and the staff is friendly.

My husband and I were there for our 30th anniversary weekend. First time at this hotel. We did the Onhwa Lumina package plus the Kwe package. The hotel is very nice and the staff is friendly. The hotel is clean . We used the pool on one afternoon. There was noone there. Was clean, the area and water were of excellent temperature. Towels are available at the pool area. Unfortunately, the hot tub was not functioning - and, we forgot to ask about it when we left the pool. Included in the package were breakfasts and dinner ( drinks were extra ). The food at La Traite is exquisite!! They always offered an extra little treat as a taster. Our dinner experience on the first night was the most pleasant- the waitress was very friendly and serviced us very well ( she explained that we could have extra mashed potatoes; she gave me an extra piece of bread; she happily had me taste the wine before I ordered a glass ). The next night's dinner was not as pleasant . The waitress was not as friendly: she did not remember that we ordered a glass of wine; I asked her for an extra piece of bread, but never received it; brought the mashed potatoes but did not tell us that we could have more. We were happy with the tour of the Museum, the church, and the long house. The guide was very knowledgeable. It was an enriching experience . We attended mass on Sunday morning (welcoming people). However, on check -n we asked if the church gave service on Sunday and the reception told us that there was no church in the area that actually said mass. Unfortunately , I would not recommend the Myths and Legends - definitely over priced !! We were told 2 legends - one of which we had already learnt through our experience at Lumina. I think it would be better for the storyteller to have a few stories prepared and go with the vibe of the crowd ( we were only 2 couples ) to see if some stories would be better to be told. Also, no disrespect intended, but I don't think that Myths and Legends is the place to tell personal experience stories ( those are very real, sad, and in some cases tragic ) . I was very much underwhelmed with this experience which I think has a lot of potential- especially since the setting of the long house is so pleasant. We also participated in the Talking Stick activity. We made a talking stick. That was a fun activity , but, I would have enjoyed it more if the person leading the event would have told more of the story behind the stick and give us more of an appreciation of its use. In retrospect, we might have preferred the jewellery making. The hotel is located walking distance from the falls - a nice nature walk. The back of the hotel is on a river side. It's a relaxing area with plenty of spaces for nice pictures. I was disappointed that we were not offered anything complementary from the hotel seeing that ( no actual fault of the hotel ) the fire alarm went on in the middle of the night and we were outside from 2:30am to about 4:30 am. There was a family dispute right next door to our room and we were asked to evacuate. It was quite intense a moment [lots of screaming going on ] which obviously caused stress and sleeplessness. No one asked us if we were okay , the next morning. Despite this, I would recommend this place as getaway for a few days. The village is also conveniently located- short drive to the Quebec City aquarium and old Quebec.

“Way overpriced! Especially the restaurant...”

We take our small groups to this hotel since many years and it was always on the pricy side, but since it is very unique it was acceptable.

We take our small groups to this hotel since many years and it was always on the pricy side, but since it is very unique it was acceptable. After the pandemic though the prices raised even higher, but the service got less, for instance, no daily room service, make your own bed! Pre-pandemic we always had a wonderful breakfast buffet with lots of really good choices. Now you pay $30 including tax and gratuities for ONE plate of your choice. The amount of food on the plate feeds a woman, but definitely not a man! Potatoes that came with the egg dish were brought out after the eggs were eaten or cold (your choice). I, personally, chose the yogurt dish, but never had a bowl of yogurt with some berries and granola for such a ridiculous price ($30)!!! I really do like the hotel, but the price performance is not in proportion.
