A propriedade — Bédard
The Bédard is a functional 3-star hotel in Quebec City’s Lower Town, a short walk from the Old Port. The lobby is clean and simple, with a front desk that speaks English and French, and the rooms are compact but well-maintained. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a reliable base near the cruise terminal and the Petit Champlain district without paying for frills. You trade atmosphere for location and a fair price.
Crónicas de Quebec
Quebec City was founded in 1608 by Samuel de Champlain as a fur-trading post, making it one of the oldest European settlements in North America. Its defensive fortifications—the only walled city north of Mexico—were built by the French and later reinforced by the British after the 1759 Battle of the Plains of Abraham. The Lower Town, where this hotel stands, was the original commercial waterfront; today its narrow streets are lined with 17th-century stone houses converted into boutiques and bistros. Modern Quebec City is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a proud French-language capital, known for its winter carnival and year-round festivals.
Melhor época para visitar
Guia completo de Quebec →Melhores meses
June and September give you pleasant highs of 22–25°C, low humidity, and full city programming without the July–August peak crowds. August is also good but busier.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are peak season, driven by fair summer weather and the Festival d'Été de Québec (early July), a major music event. Hotel prices jump by about 40–60% and rooms sell out weeks ahead. Also busy: the winter Quebec Winter Carnival weekends in February.
Orçamento da temporada
Late May and late September offer discounts of 20–30%. May can still be cool (10–18°C), but June and early October are excellent for fewer tourists and milder weather. October also has beautiful autumn colours.
Tempo e embalagem
Quebec City has a continental climate with hot, humid summers and bitterly cold winters, but even in June you can get a sudden chilly rain. Pack a waterproof jacket and a light sweater for evenings, plus comfortable walking shoes for the hilly streets.
Livro City Briefing — Quebec
- The Quebec City tramway project, officially cancelled in early 2025, has been replaced by a new express bus network on the same routes; expect construction on boulevard Charest and some detours until late 2026.
- The Musée de la civilisation just opened a new permanent exhibition on Indigenous cultures of Quebec, in partnership with First Nations communities, drawing strong visitor interest.
- Seasonal note: From late June, the St. Lawrence River cruise season is in full swing, so the Old Port and Petit Champlain area will be busy with day-trippers; book dinner reservations well ahead.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Bédard, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request room 101 on the ground floor for easy access and minimal mobility issues. It's the only accessible room with a roll-in shower and grab bars.
