This place is impressive.  My girlfriends and I stayed in room 23.  The rooms date back to the 60's.  You can hear the other guess in their room, the pillows are stiff and I had to make my own.  Functionality is way better than a motel by Howard Johnson at Niagara falls.  The spa section is great, there's a sauna and two Jacuzzis.  There's also a lounge with a bookshelf where you can read.  The staff is very friendly and welcoming.  Even the front desk lady recommend us to eat at le saint-pub microbrasserie charlevoix.  And for breakfast, we sat along other guess and enjoyed the history for this establishment by the bar tender.  This is one place I recommend coming if you're in the area.

Great time to relax and discover.

This is a hotel with much going for it : lovely staff (Mimi), well positioned (5 min walk into the center of town), fun spa area, nice “brunch” breakfast (you get what you are given - but lovely none the less). Our only gripe is that our room on the ground floor was very poor : paper thin walls so that you could hear everything (and I mean everything) in the room next door, no TV screen, no coffee making facilities. Very basic indeed. I have no idea if the other rooms in the hotel have the same issues, but be very careful which room you choose if you value quiet and privacy.

Good Hotel, But Our Room Was Well Below Standard

This characterful property is run by a really lovely and helpful couple.
The rooms are clean and comfy enough but we found ours to be noticeably outdated, on the small side and with en suites that were very basic and pretty tight on space.
Noise insulation between rooms also wasn’t too great.
So fine as an overnighter but on our experience  we probably wouldn’t head back.

A bit underwhelming…

This place is fantastic.  Everyone was so friendly and welcoming there.  They were always willing to help.  Loved the extras, like the spa, bar and breakfast included.  
We stayed two nights and enjoyed that it was located to the quaint shopping and restaurants downtown.  We look forward to a return visit.

Loved the customer service

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent two-night stay at La Grande Maison.  A large, rambling historic home, it was cozy and inviting.  Even though the weather was a somewhat dismal and rainy, the charms of Baie St-Paul - with its fine restaurants, shops and art galleries - brightened our wanderings through this pretty village.  The staff at reception and in the breakfast room were welcoming, pleasant and helpful.  Our breakfast (included) was generous and delicious. During this time of covid, we were asked for proof of our vaccinations and photo ID's - a requirement in Quebec which was reassuring and made us feel safe and secure.  We had actually planned our one week getaway to the Charlevoix and Saguenay regions precisely because of this vaccination mandate and it was gratifying to see that it was being followed everywhere.  

We had booked a regular room which was nice, but on the small side. It did have everything we needed, however in hindsight, perhaps we should have booked a superior room - just to have more space to lounge a little.  In any case, the auberge has a comfortable spa area with a lounge and gas fireplace that was incredibly lovely and relaxing.  While we did not use the spa, we did sit with our computers in the lounge near the fire and enjoyed drinks there each night before going out to dinner.  The wifi connection in our room was sporadic, but was good in the spa lounge, reception and breakfast room.

Cozy, welcoming stay

Pros: Location, friendly staff, breakfast, spacious/clean room, air conditioning unit (helped drown out talking from the next room over)

To improve: Mattress was very firm - was difficult to sleep (didn't check this until very late)

Note: The rooms vary - check in advance re: tv, shower size, window, etc.

Good accommodations; check that room meets your needs when arriving

The overall atmosphere is welcoming.The rooms are clean. The showers are way too small. The service was amazing by our front desk lady Mishka. She made our 4 day stay really nice.
No elevator to 2nd floor as this is a historic ancient house. Breakfast were good, brunch style plates.
If you like the feel of an old fashioned B&B this is for you.

Quaint and historic

We stayed one night and our room was spacious and clean. The spa is great, some thing worthy of a five-star hotel. Breakfast was included and was  brunch plate  for everyone that was very good, with excellent service. The location is perfect, Just one block away from the busy pedestrian street downtown art galleries and great restaurants. The reception at the hotel reserved our restaurant for us and have great suggestions of where to go. Very good value, we definitely return

Great accommodations

We spent 4 nights there for our Honeymoon and we were disappointed every step of the way. First off, the lady at the front desk was very rude and inappropriate! The fist thing she told us when we arrived was not to start having children yet.. (I almost started crying because we're 30 year olds struggling with infertility issues so... not a great start!). We had one of the expensive suites and honestly it was a big room. But there was black mold in the shower (like a lot of it), and the water temperature was hard to mange (we burnt ourselves several times).  The whole place feels very cold and humide, probably due to the spas downstairs. The complementary breakfast was awful, and it's the same meal every morning.. Also, I herd the staff complain about the tips we left, so we felt it should be included in the price of the room to make the guest feel more confortable. Finally, we booked 800$ worth of treatments and massages which was way over priced for what we got! The last treatment we booked was called "Neurospa". They literally sat us in massaging chairs for 30 minutes in a freaking cold basement, I was furious!

Disappointing

Charming little hotel in a great location.  Due to Covid rooms can’t be made every day but there is always a fresh supply of towels available.

The owner was there every morning to greet us and welcome us to breakfast.  Breakfast is a preset menu but really abondant and delicious. Service was always amazing.

Didn’t get to use the spa as we ran out of time but it looks really well kept.  There is also a nice lounge and terrasse where you can have a cocktail at a reasonable price.  We will definitely be coming back here.
