We stayed 3 days at the Couvent and it was a most pleasurable stay.
Nice room, even with a bathtub, not in the bathroom, but in the room itself!
3 dinners with excellent food (the duck was a bit dry though) and service.
Ideally situated. 

To be recommended.

First let me say that the staff was friendly and as helpful as they could be under the circumstances. They were run off their feet trying to get to all tables. It was very busy.

My husband ordered only 2 appetizers for his dinner. The first was very tough calamari.
The second was the shrimp appetizer, when it came we were both silent, there were 3 lonely shrimp on the plate and nothing else.  He was so angry that he left before anything else happened.
My order was for Lamb Shank which  came with a flat tasteless squash puree. The Shank was tough and flavourless.  
All of this took over 2 hours to accomplish. Terribly inefficient kitchen.

Beautiful old building but that is where it ended for us.

We would never recommend this restaurant for dining and did not consider it fine In any way.



The most disappointing meal in our 2 week trip through East Coast Canada

I never write terrible reviews ! I usually write when its a good place, and dont bother with negativity.But there is always an exception to my rules.
I booked a room for my husband and I -for his birthday (August 7-8) and at restaurant.That Sunday we both thought we had allergies but tested positive for covid.I did the right and responsible thing by cancelling reservation.When you call that place their is a women so darn rude, its amazing this hotel has her representing it-as I called a few times and always got her ,always rude! Needless to say ,out of respect for others we cancelled room.I was charged 474.00 .what kind of place does this-she practically said if you dont come you are losing all of your reservation.She could of cared less had we went with covid! TO me that is a lack of respect for others.We even pushed our airline tickets later ,so we would not give covid to people on planeI guess AUBERGE DU VIEUX COUVENT dont care about an extremely contagious virus as long as they fill their rooms! I know we did the right thing.I love les iles de la Madeleine but do not recommend this places they treat their guests horribly!I guess they dont practice safe environment for covid.Who does that!!!!!Highly do not recommend!

tested covid positive and they didn't care

We had a restaurant booking with them and the cancelled our booking no more no less HORRIBLE service and standards. You can’t rely on them. We had made the booking in January and the advised us a few days ago.

They cancelled our restaurant booking.

I have two reviews for this place...the restaurant and the Inn.  Both are great. 

We stayed here 11 yrs ago for our honeymoon...the return trip did not disappoint.  The place has had a major renovation to the bar/restaurant.  Much bigger than before with amazing water views from almost every seat. Best view in town.

The restaurant offers a simple yet tasty breakfast menu to guests of the Inn only. 
Dinner, while mid to high priced, was excellent.  We tried a series of appetizers to taste as much variety as possible. The ceasar salad with smoked herring was unique and a tasty surprise.  Our highlight was the the Thai basil seafood chowder...highly reccomended.

The Inn has beautiful sea views from every room but we recommend the Valons d'Acadie or Les Amicalists...amazing views of the ocean.

The front desk staff were the same as our last visit and were very attentive to details and to our visit to the Islands. 

Second time staying....same great place and service.

In my opinion the nicest place to stay on the magdalen islands. Renovated nuns convent turned into boutique hotel that is perfectly located for your stay. Midway between the beautiful beaches of the north and sandy hook to the south. Rooms are plush and comfortable. Only downfall is no air conditioning so with the small windows open you have the light and sounds that may interrupt your sleep. Staff is friendly. Our room - mother superior was 280$ with a great breakfast included. Restaurant has beautiful view of the ocean. 

Charming revamped nuns convent

Our stay at Domaine du Vieux Couvent was fabulous.  The location was perfect for viewing the different islands.  The property is located with a great view of the ocean.  The staff were all welcoming and helpful.  The restaurant within the property provided some exquisite food - the lobster bisque was out of this world.  This hotel is beautifully decorated and feels very luxurious.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Perfect Stay

I planned a return to aux views convent for my birthday. I was delighted. Beautiful oceanview venue. Everything has been renovated to a 4 star quality- the service is charming and the food delicious. Well deserving of being in Where to Eat in Canada. A must when on Les Iles.

A special destination

Thank you for a wonderful stay on your delightful island. The room was well-appointed with a wonderful view. The breakfast and dinner was also wonderful. The staff was very helpful, warm, and friendly.

Fantastic Stay

Stayed at the Domaine du Vieux Couvent for two nights in a king corner room. Although the reception area was very busy, check in was professional, quick, and informative. We were shown to our room by Reggie, and he explained all we would need to know. The view of the ocean from all four windows was beautiful. Breakfast was included, and was excellent. We ate in the restaurant for both dinners, and again the food was very good. Reggie was helpful and went “above and beyond”, to steer us in the right direction for one full day of sight seeing. Stay here for the rooms, but the service was beyond reproach, and a lot of attention is paid to detail. An early check out Sunday morning was also fast and efficiently done. I highly recommend this Inn.
