La propriété — Chalet Dusseault
Chalet Dusseault is a three-star ski lodge in Saint-Ferréol-les-Neiges, twenty minutes north of Quebec City. The lobby smells of woodsmoke and pine polish, with a stone fireplace, beat-up leather couches and trail maps pinned to a corkboard. It suits outdoorsy couples or solo hikers who want a straightforward, no-fuss base near Mont Sainte-Anne and the national parks. There is no spa or fine dining, just clean rooms, a hot tub, and a breakfast of croissants and cafeteria coffee.
Chroniques de Quebec
Quebec City was founded in 1608 by Samuel de Champlain as a fur-trading post on the Saint Lawrence River. Its Old Town, a Unesco site, is the only fortified city north of Mexico, with narrow cobblestone streets and 17th-century stone buildings. The city evolved from a French colonial capital to a British garrison town, and today it’s the heart of French Canada, fiercely protective of its language and culture. Contemporary Quebec City thrives on tourism, winter festivals and a laid-back, small-city feel that avoids the crowds of Montreal or Toronto.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Quebec →Meilleurs mois
June to August: warm enough for hiking and cycling trails without the humidity of Montreal. September also works for crisp, sunny days and autumn colours before the leaves peak.
Peak / Festival surge
July (especially the last weekend, when the Festival d'Été de Québec brings 300+ concerts and half a million visitors to the city). Hotels double in price; book six months ahead. The hotel itself is quieter than city-centre places, but restaurants and trails get busy.
La saison des épaules
Late May and early October: temperatures 10-18°C, fewer tourists, and hotel rates drop 30-40%. Trails are less crowded and parking is easy. Some mountain lifts and seasonal cafes close by mid-October.
Météo & Emballage
June can swing from 30°C and humid to 12°C with rain in a single afternoon. Pack a waterproof shell and a mid-layer; leave cotton jeans for quick-dry trousers.
Briefing de la ville — Quebec
- The Mont Sainte-Anne ski lift, open for summer scenic rides, is undergoing cable replacement until August 2026 — check if it's running on your date.
- Quebec City’s express bus route 800, which links the city centre to Mont Sainte-Anne, now runs every 30 minutes during summer weekends.
- A new bike path from Saint-Ferréol to the Chute-Montmorency falls opened in May 2026, making it possible to do the 14 km ride without touching a road.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Chalet Dusseault, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the ground floor (first floor) for easier access and a potentially quieter stay. The two rooms on this floor have wide doors, making them more suitable for guests with mobility issues.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the lift, as the sound of the lift and potential foot traffic from guests using it may be noticeable. Additionally, rooms near the front of the hotel on Rue des Pins may be noisier due to the street being a main thoroughfare in the Saint-Roch neighbourhood.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Rue des Pins does not offer any notable views, as it's a relatively narrow street with surrounding buildings. However, the views from the rooms on the higher floors (if available) might be slightly better.
Quietest floors
The ground floor (first floor) is likely the quietest, as it's the lowest floor and has the least amount of potential external noise from the street.
🔊 Noise notes
Rue des Pins is a main street in the Saint-Roch neighbourhood and may experience evening traffic noise, which could be noticeable in rooms facing the street. Additionally, the hotel's on-site parking lot is unsecured, which may contribute to noise from passing vehicles.
Insider tips
Consider using the nearby Stationnement Centre-ville public garage for parking, which is more secure and only CAD 5 more expensive per day than the hotel's parking lot. If you're planning to explore the city, ask the hotel staff for recommendations on the best local restaurants and cafes in the Saint-Roch area, as they may be able to provide insider knowledge on the best spots to visit.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
