A propriedade — Motel Au Bercail
Motel Au Bercail is a straightforward, family-run roadside motel in Quebec City's Sainte-Foy district, about 15 minutes west of Old Quebec. The lobby is practical, with a small check-in desk, a few armchairs, and a rack of local brochures — nothing fancy, but efficient and clean. Its main appeal is budget-conscious access to the city: free parking, basic rooms with mini-fridges, and a simple continental breakfast that gets you out the door by 7.30. Best for drivers who want a no-nonsense base without paying downtown rates.
Crónicas de Quebec
Quebec City, founded in 1608 by Samuel de Champlain, is one of the oldest European settlements in North America. Its fortified core, Upper Town, retains its original 17th-century grid and stone buildings, while Lower Town hugs the St. Lawrence with narrow streets that survive from the fur-trade era. The Plains of Abraham, site of the 1759 battle that ended French rule, now serve as a central public park. Over the centuries, Quebec evolved from a colonial trading post into a Unesco World Heritage site, where modern and historic architecture coexist with a distinct French-Canadian identity. Today, its culture is shaped by a strong separatist undercurrent and a vibrant arts scene that balances preservation with renewal.

Guia completo de Quebec →Melhores meses
June and September: warm but not oppressive, fewer tourists than July–August, and summer festivals (Summer Festival) start in July but you miss the main crowds. September brings crisp air and autumn colours.
Peak / Festival Surge
July — especially the Quebec City Summer Festival (July 9–19 in 2026) — fills hotels citywide. Prices at Motel Au Bercail typically jump 20–30% above shoulder rates. Book months ahead.
Orçamento da temporada
Late May and early October offer mild weather (15–20°C / 60–68°F), lower room rates, and shorter queues at major sites.
Tempo e embalagem
Quebec City's summer can swing from 30°C humid sun to 12°C drizzle within a day. Pack layers: a light rain jacket and a fleece are non-negotiable, even in July.
Livro City Briefing — Quebec
- The Quebec City tramway project — a 23-kilometre light-rail line — resumed pre-construction this spring, causing lane closures on Route 138 (Boulevard René-Lévesque) near the motel; check road updates.
- Old Quebec's Notre-Dame Basilica is undergoing a two-year facade restoration; scaffolding will obscure the front view until late 2027, but the interior remains open.
- July 1 is Canada Day, with free museum entry and fireworks in the old port, plus the start of the month-long Fête de la Saint-Jean-Baptiste celebrations; expect street closures and packed sidewalks.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Motel Au Bercail, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the third or fourth floor at the rear of the building. These upper floors reduce street-level noise from the front entrance and parking area, while the rear orientation avoids the road entirely.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor, especially those facing the street or adjacent to the lobby. Street noise from Quebec's urban setting and foot traffic near the entrance can be intrusive. Also skip any rooms near the ice machine or vending area if those exist—common noise sources in 3-star motels.
Best views
Rear-facing rooms on floors 3-4 likely offer a quieter outlook over the motel's back lot or neighbouring buildings, potentially with some treetop views typical of Quebec's urban outskirts. No notable scenic view expected from a 3-star motel.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4. With no lift data provided, assume a walk-up or small elevator; upper floors are naturally quieter as they're farther from street activity and ground-floor amenities.
🔊 Noise notes
Quebec's address suggests a main road or commercial strip; expect traffic noise, especially at rush hours. Parking lot revving, door slams, and late-arriving guests are common. Ground-floor rooms near the entrance or vending machines can pick up hallway echo.
Insider tips
1. Park at the far end of the lot away from the entrance to avoid exhaust fumes and early departures. 2. Ask for a room with a mini-fridge if not standard—handy for Quebec's local cheese and cider from nearby markets.
- 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

💡 Come at dusk for the free sound-and-light show on the square's buildings (projected on walls, May–October, starts at 9:00 PM).
💡 Visit on a free Sunday but get there by 10:00—queue forms fast. The permanent First Peoples exhibition is top-notch.
