Best Resorts in Quebec

The Fairmont Le Château Montebello — situated along the Ottawa River in Quebec approximately 60 miles northeast of the Ottawa airport — impresses guests with its laid-back (yet sophisticated) atmosphere. Travelers can unwind in accommodations fitted with wooden furniture, cable TVs and large windows before taking to the great outdoors. After you've spent some exploring the surrounding grounds and beyond, pamper yourself with a signature treatment at the resort spa — like a maple sugar body scrub — before cozying up by the stone fireplace in the hotel's main lobby. Recent guests also highly recommend a Sunday brunch at Aux Chantignoles' intimate French restaurant, describing the cuisine as "exquisite." You can also savor casual fare and cocktails at the Bar Le Foyer or at three other on-site eateries. If you're a Le Club AccorHotels program member, you can earn or redeem privileges, such as access complimentary room upgrades for choosing to stay here. Keep in mind: The resort charges a daily resort fee of $30 per person, which includes Wi-Fi access and equipment rental, among other extras.

Cozying up to the famed Mont-Tremblant (located about 80 miles northwest of Montreal), the Fairmont Tremblant impresses visitors with its alpine scenery, attentive service and outdoor activities. If you're looking to do some skiing, you'll find the surrounding towering peaks at your service. In the warmer months, you can hike and mountain bike or go golfing at one of four nearby courses. For a more relaxing time, indulge in a specialty treatment at the on-site Moment Spa. Cap off your day with French fare at Le Comptoir Cuisine Du Marche, which receives a thumbs-up from past patrons for its stellar service and tasty cuisine. When night falls, snuggle up in your luxurious accommodations, furnished with minifridges, Keurig coffee makers, flat-panel TVs and Wi-Fi access (for a fee). If you participate in the Le Club AccorHotels loyalty program, you'll be rewarded with extra perks, such as complimentary internet access during your stay.

Overlooking the St. Lawrence River in the picturesque town of La Malbaie (about 90 miles northeast of Québec City), the Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu's lures visitors with its beautiful surroundings and upscale amenities. During your stay, you can take advantage of on-site activities like tennis, snowshoeing, ice skating and golf. If it's relaxation you seek, take a dip in one of the resort's pools or book a treatment at the Moment Spa before returning to your cozy digs adorned with wooden furniture, TVs and robes. For dining, there are three options to choose from, many of which serve local cuisine, and a lobby bar, the latter of which features live music in the evenings and weekends. If you take part in the Le Club AccorHotels loyalty program, you can earn or redeem privileges such as complimentary nights and room upgrades.

Positioned in the heart of Mont-Tremblant, Quebec (about 85 miles northwest of Montreal), Le Westin Resort & Spa puts travelers within easy reach of the area's snowy peaks. Cold-weather activities – from cross-country skiing to ice skating – abound. Although ski enthusiasts agree that Mont-Tremblant is the Quebecois destination for powder hounds, summer visitors can take advantage of Lake Tremblant's beaches and the surrounding hiking opportunities. After a day spent outdoors, guests find little reason to leave the property thanks to its abundance of amenities. Enjoy a replenishing treatment at Amerispa or splash around the heated outdoor pool (open seasonally) before soothing your appetite at Gypsy, a casual Mediterranean-inspired restaurant. As far as rooms go, recent guests say the wooden furniture, comfortable Heavenly bedding and large windows peering over the lake or the mountain provide a pleasant place to unwind. And because this Westin is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.
