Auberge des Îles du Bic

Rimouski

If you want high speed internet, mod cons and in room tv then this is not the place for you. If however, you want a friendly personable host, character environment and interest/ history around you, then this is a lovely option. Each room is individual with different decor, different size bed and not all have en-suites, so choose your room carefully to ensure you get the amenities you want. We opted for Cosmos which has an en-suite and king bed on the second floor. The room is simply furnished using an eclectic assortment of furniture from years gone by. The upside of this is the novelty and appearance, the downside is that some are not as comfy as one may like (the sofa in our room for example). The bed was comfortable, the bathroom looked attractive with its claw foot bath but the downside of that was that it wasn’t that easy to shower in. 
I was thankful the evening was cool as we couldn’t open the window to the front and I wouldn’t have opened the windows on the side as there was a wrap round deck from an outside stairway giving easier access to the second floor.
Breakfast was included and was very tasty, freshly and individually cooked :)
The host was very welcoming and while he spoke no English and my French is shameful, he went out of his way to help us arrange dinner reservations and anything else we needed.

Historical bed and breakfast

The owner welcomed us warmly, and we loved the Dalhia room, a suite with a dining room, a full lunch, a buffet, a hotel with a seal and the opportunity to meet other travelers.

It's a nice little corner.

The auberge looks very cute on the outside but it is deceptive. Dinner is no longer available on site and we had drive 18km into Rimouski one night and ate at a cafe in the village on the second because we did not feel like another long drive to dinner. Breakfast was ok. Our room had a small claw foot bathtub with a very difficult to use shower in it. The worst feature of our stay was the train passing behind the building honking its horn twice during the night. The second night of our stay, fortunately, this did not happen and we slept well as we were so tired from the first sleepless night.

Noisy

We got back from our dinner a little before 9:00 p.m. and there was no one at the reception. A sign was posted in the front door to indicate the phone number to join them, but it wouldn't answer... A very rustic hotel, with all the cleaning and adjustments that comes with it, but at least it's too easy to find a good experience on the doorstep. When I finished my lunch at the bottom of the door, the worst part of my life was that I didn't have to go to the bathroom, so I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom, and I went to the bathroom.

Accommodation in the Bic Islands

We had the social room and we really liked the charm of this old building, the fridge and the coffee machine in the room. No air conditioning. Obviously the parks are a little creaking. The train passed once in the night (but why do you have to whistle????) Excellent breakfast buffet very complete and warm welcome. The wifi is pushy.

The Charm of the Old Man

Hotel very well located for visiting Bic National Park, but close to the railway (very few passages fortunately, and none at night), and a very busy road. The sunset apartment is comfortable, but rather old; some windows very poorly insulate from outside noise.

Excellent welcome, but old and noisy apartment

It's a nice place like the village except everything is closed except the grocery store in the village! We have to eat in Rimouski, which is a little annoying and also a lot of stuff closed! Very medium room and low sound and average breakfast.

It's a lovely ancestral inn, but for the comfort...

My husband and I slept one night in the cosmos room on the 4th of September On the 3 sofas, 2 were broken, and the 3rd very uncomfortable, they are old antiques not renovated. We paid $177 for this reservation. For this price everything should have been adequate and comfortable. We talked about it to the hostel owner who is not even sorry. Not worried about satisfying his guests.

Too expensive for average comfort

My husband and I stayed 3 hours in August 2021 during the heat. Considering that this inn kept its old seal, several details such as the cracking floors, the walls lacking soundproofing, we thought of taking a room upstairs. When we arrived, the heat was worse from the outside, a sonar, nothing less. 2 windows, one of which was damaged, then the only one we could open gave no chill. The three nights were hellish, 2 ventilators, which made it hot. Normally I was going to jog in the morning, because of the unrepairing sleep, I didn't want to go back. This is a nice room, because it was impossible to identify the children in the room, so the only one we could open gave a few chill.

Beautiful ancestral hostel, place to be improved

Very well located, we enjoyed this charming rustic, clean and well maintained inn. Easy parking in a busy square. Comfortable room and good breakfast. Very friendly staff. Walking distance from the Bic Theatre and restaurants. We enjoyed our stay.
