What guests think

At Hôtel-Musée Premières Nations, travelers highlight an immersive Indigenous theme with an on-site museum and longhouse, a serene riverside setting near Québec City, spacious comfortable rooms, and generally friendly service, while dining stands out for quality but often requires reservations.

Many praise the unique cuisine, though several find prices high and service slow at times. Recent or ongoing renovations and occasional closures (pool, bar, some activities) are mentioned, alongside intermittent noise, dated or loud A/C, and rare housekeeping misses. Its setting suits those seeking nature and calm, with Old Québec reachable by car. Expect a culturally rich, restful stay with occasional inconveniences.

Very nice and quiet hotel, love the self-service fire pit as an extra feature. Staff was not helpful with the location of gym and pool, so we couldn't find them. Museum staff was horrible, wasn't will to even talk to us as the admission was closed but the museum was still opened. Nice venue but poor service.

We loved our stay at this hotel. We took a 10-day road trip this summer and stopped at various places in Quebec and Atlantic Canada. This hotel was the most unique and so peaceful. I like the sound of the river and the closeness to nature but with the amenities. The kids enjoyed the pool. I can tell that our dog felt most comfortable at this hotel than all the others we stayed at on this road trip. I’d love to see similar hotels in Canada as I think it really helps the community in the area.

We loved our stay here! Gorgeous hotel and a gorgeous environment. We loved the trail walk along the St. Charles River just a few steps from our room. Our room had a ground level balcony that we used during our stay. Super spacious, clean, and comfortable. All staff were lovely and helpful. The hotel has really wonderful activities that should be advertised more upon check in as an offering because it can easily be missed- we did the myths and legends experience with storytelling in the longhouse around the fire and that was truly special. The museum on the property is lovely as well. We had a wonderful, peaceful time. Distance to Old Quebec City was about 20 minutes, but there is plenty to see in the Wendake area. It was definitely the best part of our visit.

This will probably be a great place in the near future. Unfortunately there was construction going on and my room was rather dusty from drywall and the smell of fresh construction was overpowering to the point that i spent some of the night awake ventilating (the river was nice at least). I really needed sleep but at 7:30am hammering and drilling or grinding was so loud that my bed was vibrating from whatever was going on in the next room. The river trail was nice.

Our room had 2 patio doors for nice outside views and outdoor seating. The shower water pressure was good and the towels were pretty good as well. There is a trail to walk/ bicycle next to the parking lot and a small walking trail behind the hotel. We did not eat at the restaurant on this trip. We have been staying at this hotel once or twice a year for the past ~ 10 years.

The hotel is new and interestingly built with many First Nations elements. The museum and longhouse in the courtyard were very unique and the tour was a great experience. The only downside was the air conditioning system which was extremely old, inconvenient and bulky, waking us up all night. I hope they replace it with newer technology. The restaurant was fancy but there was no breakfast or dinner buffet or affordable meals inside so we had to leave the hotel to eat.

The Hôtel-Musée Premières Nations is a must-stay for anyone wanting to visit the Quebec City area in a place surrounded by nature and Indigenous history. Everything at this hotel is about experience. Do not miss out on the food at the restaurant. My breakfast was so good that I tried to eat it slowly just to savour it. Check out the museum too. The rooms are pretty big and spacious. I am not too sure how to feel about the Murphy-beds though. They are not that comfortable. I give cleanliness an 8/10. The staff was clearly in a rush to get our room ready and perhaps forgot to clean under the bed. My other favourite feature about the hotel is that it is pet-friendly which bodes well for us and our 4-legged.
