A propriedade — Godendard
Godendard sits in the heart of Old Quebec, a 3-star hotel that feels more like a well-kept pied-à-terre than a chain. Its lobby mixes exposed stone walls, dark wood, and a small fireplace — cosy but not twee. The USP is location: you’re steps from the Château Frontenac and the ramparts, with rooms that are compact, clean, and practical. It suits independent travellers and couples who want to spend their time outside the hotel rather than in it.
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 architecture tells the story — from the star-shaped fortifications of the Citadelle to the narrow cobbled streets of the upper town, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The lower town, Place Royale, preserves 17th-century stone houses with steep roofs, a nod to its French colonial roots. Today, the city wears its heritage easily, blending French-Canadian culture with a lively food scene and a calendar dominated by winter festivals and summer street performers.

Guia completo de Quebec →Melhores meses
June to September: warm, long daylight hours, and the city’s parks and terraces are in full swing. July is the sweet spot, with average highs of 25°C and the lowest chance of rain.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are peak, driven by the Festival d’Été de Québec (early July) and Canada Day on 1 July. Hotel prices jump 30-50% and advance booking is essential. The Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day celebrations (24 June) also spike demand.
Orçamento da temporada
May and September: temperatures are mild (10-18°C), crowds thin, and hotel rates drop 20-40%. You’ll still get good weather for walking, but need a jacket for evenings.
Tempo e embalagem
Quebec’s climate is notorious for sudden shifts — a sunny morning can turn into a rainy afternoon. Pack a light waterproof jacket and a pair of comfortable walking shoes; the city’s hills and cobblestones don’t forgive flimsy footwear.
Livro City Briefing — Quebec
- The tramway project on Quebec City’s north-south axis has faced delays; visitors should expect construction around key bus routes, especially near the Gare du Palais.
- The Musée de la Civilisation opened a new permanent exhibition on Indigenous cultures in spring 2026 — worth a half-day visit and a five-minute walk from the hotel.
- Several restaurants on Rue Saint-Jean have introduced no-reservation walk-in policies for summer; plan for waits of 20-40 minutes at peak times.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Godendard, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floor 3 or 4 facing away from the street. These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but still within the lift's quick reach, and the rear aspect overlooks the quieter inner courtyard or neighbouring buildings.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 1 or 2 directly facing the street. These catch both pavement noise from Quebec's busy roads and foot traffic, and the thin windows of a 3-star hotel won't dampen much. Also avoid any room adjacent to the lift shaft on any floor – the mechanism is audible at night.
Best views
Rooms facing the street give you a live view of Quebec's city life, but they come with noise. If you value a view, request a high floor (4 or 5) street-facing room – you see the rooftops, not just passing cars.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest: above street clatter but below any roof-level plant or maintenance noise.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel sits on a Quebec road: expect daytime traffic rumble and occasional late-night vehicles. The lift is older – you'll hear it go past your door. No bar or restaurant on-site, so no late-night guest noise from public areas.
Insider tips
1. If you're driving, ask reception about the nearest free street parking after 6pm – the hotel may not advertise it but local streets often have evening exemption. 2. Check-in early if you can: room selection is first-come, first-served for quiet floors, so arriving before 3pm gives you pick of the upper rear-facing rooms.
- 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
