The online pictures don’t do enough justice to this beautiful VRBO. It’s a lovely blend of historic and modern in all the right places. The kitchen was well appointed and the bathrooms were enormous. The host was easy and kind. The location is excellent for sightseeing and shopping. I would definitely recommend renting this place!
The condo was perfect for our stay. It was clean, spacious and comfortable. The central location made it easy to walk anywhere we wanted to go in Old Quebec. We would definitely stay again if in the area!

I do hope you had a good stay.
MERCI
This beautiful, clean, large property was perfect for our family of six. The location can't be beat, and it was so convenient to have a parking spot just outside. The host was so kind and helpful. We appreciate the opportunity to stay here and learn about the labour of love that took place in creating this incredible home. We will definitely return the next time we visit.
We had an amazing stay in Quebec at the Le Bluenose. The property manager was exceptionally accommodating and easy to communicate with. Everyone was very kind and made our stay extra nice. The location is perfect! Less than a five minute walk to shops and boutiques, bars and restaurants. The apartment is beautiful and spacious with access to a beautiful roof deck. Would stay here again and recommend to anyone going to Quebec!

We found this apartment in the Royal Dalhousie to be phenomenal. It it was spacious, and the bedroom layout worked well. It was a great location, right along the river, but with quick easy access to the old town. The host was great, answering all of our questions and addressing all of our needs. This is as close to a perfect situation as we’ve stayed in quite some time. We cannot recommend this place enough.
The apartment was perfect! We had 3 couples and we all had lovely bedrooms, but it was wonderful having a large living room/gathering area. The size of the apartment was great. Everything worked perfectly and the owner was so kind and accommodating. The location was great so that we could walk to most things. As a bonus there were fireworks one evening and it was a real treat to see them from the rooftop deck (which was also lovely for drinks one afternoon). Overall, it was a wonderful stay and I highly recommend!

It is wonderful when there is an activité like the fireworks in front of the building......Please come back
Absolutely incredible stay from start to finish!Location is A. It simply does not get better than this.The apartment is even more beautiful and spacious than in the pictures: the high ceilings and beautiful decor are just gorgeous.We stayed with our two children (age 5 & 7) and are already planning our next stay. Cannot recommend The Dalhousie enough!
This space is very large and comfortable. The staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, we enjoyed the space very much. The two rooms at the front of the building, however, face a busy street and the road noise is loud at times. Our group slept well in all rooms regardless.
We stayed there with our daughter and son-in-law, and two grandchildrenThe apartment was beautiful and well furnished, and the kitchen was supplied with just about anything you could needOur place had three bedrooms and three bathrooms and a huge living and dining room, which gave everyone plenty of spaceThe owners of the place were so warm and friendly, and made our stay even more special

Why they chose this property
The Royal Dalhousie is located in the heart of Place Royale. It is from this location that Samuel de Champlain constructed the first habitation; a farm and a shed. The location was named after Louis XIV and is one of the last remaining relics of 17th & 18th century buildings in North America.
All eight condos in the Royal Dalhousie offer breathtaking views of a park overlooking the St. Lawrence River, seen through 8-foot high windows. They also all have high ceilings, hardwood floors and exposed ceiling beams, which accentuate the rich history of these newly renovated condos.
What makes this property unique
