We loved our stay. We had a balcony that we enjoyed every night. The only thing that could be added is a coffee maker in the room or in the lobby area. Also ice.
Our bathroom was down the hallway, but it was private and worked out great for us. We will stay here again!

Petit Hôtel Café Krieghoff welcomes you with a small lobby area on the second floor of this old house on Cartier Ave, a local street filled with shops and pubs about a bit over 1 km (.8 mile), as the crow flies, from the walls of the Old City. The hotel is located approximately 400m (.2 miles) from the Plains of Abraham. The lobby has a small microwave and frig. The hotel consists of rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floor of this building. There is a 'steep' and narrow metal stairs to the 2nd floor. The room I occupied had a window to the rear of the building, thus sheltering me from any noise from Cartier Ave. The main floor is occupied by the cafe, which is a popular hangout for local seniors in the morning. The cafe is busy place during the afternoons and evenings on a warm sunny day.

Access to the hotel and your room is made possible by a code provided a day before your arrival. The code gains you access into the hotel lobby and to your assigned room. The only staff member that I interacted with was with a cleaner (on one afternoon of my stay). IMO, this is the ideal hotel for a low-maintenance traveler who wants to avoid the tourist area yet still be close to those areas.

The businesses on this street are frequently mainly by locals and, thus, is an excellent refuge from the tourist areas. A small grocery store is located adjacent to this property.

P.S. If you have a car, parking on side streets are limited during the day (mainly 60 and 90 time limits).

Small hotel

The hotel was fine, a little far from the centre of Quebec however not a big issue. The one thing to be improve, add coffee to the reception area that guess can pay since their restaurant is not opened early enough. This way we do not have to get dressed to get coffee in the morning. It took 3rd place to get coffee since most places do not open early enough. A communal coffee maker that is payable is a good compromise.

Comfortable and boutique hotel in a great location

Petit Hôtel Café Krieghoff is a small and elegant hotel located above the cafe in a great location. Rue Cartier is an interesting street full of activity in a very pleasant neighbourhood. A supermarket, pharmacy, liquor store and restaurants are all close by. Bus stops to the city and to Montmorency Falls are each a short walk away and walking into the old town is easy enough.
The hotel is compact - only 6 rooms I believe - and despite being over a cafe, is very quiet. Our room was nicely decorated with a good size bathroom. There isn't a fridge in the room but one is provided in the common lounge area together with a hot/cold water fountain. The staff were charming and ready to help with any request. Breakfast is provided in the cafe below and is wonderful - you're provided a $25 per person credit to use for anything you desire on the menu - and is available until early afternoon. Highly recommended.

Supposedly, property emailed me with door code but I didn't receive it. Good thing someone outside the premises told me to get it from cafe below. Set up was okay but management could have exerted a little welcoming effort. Lighting inside wasn't bright enough. Floor lamp has no working switch, safe deposit has no key (but eventually replaced). Common area has small fridge with bottled water, also microwave. Would have been nice to have mugs to microwave in, as the water dispenser with hot option wasn't working. Hallway alarm kept on beeping (thankfully falsely so no CO or fires) but Frederick did come to disconnect it altogether. The mini cake of soap had a strong detergent smell to it. The bed frame creaked everytime i sat on it. Hotel was full and i did hear other guests come and go, hut everyone was quiet during sleeping time so I was able to sleep just fine. So ok accommodations but could be improved.

My boyfriend and I had an excellent stay at Cafe Krieghoff during the second week of the winter carnival. The hotel was easy to find and we were given a lock number prior to our stay which made arrival and departure smooth. We had no problem finding free street parking nearby, and enjoyed being near so many restaurants/bars that were lively at night. I was pleasantly surprised by how great of a spot this truly was.

I would absolutely stay here again. A few small recommendations:
- provide dollar store slippers or give customers a heads up that your bathroom will be located down the hall so they can bring their own.
- add a couple of coat hooks in the room. Wardrobe wasn’t great for hanging up big winter coats
- a small door mat in the room would be helpful to avoid trekking snow/water on the floors

If you choose to stay here, check out the chocolate shop at the end of the street across from metro. Their ice cream and chocolates were DELICIOUS.

The location is great, in a part of Québec with lots of restaurants and shops. We were able to find on-street parking overnight (free,) and the bartender gave us advice on that and how to find nearby low cost parking options. Our room had a balcony, which was lovely.

The arrangement of this Petit Hotel on top of the Café was ok. I had to find the bartender to access our room, since our booking through Expedia did not reveal the room #. A guest who arrived later at night had the same problem with online booking, and had to try their access code on numerous rooms to get in. A glitch with online check-in, apparently. The key code system also meant that the main door to the hotel did not always get locked. It seemed like a fairly safe neighborhood, but I didn't consider that ideal. Be aware of the stairs - no lift and the stairs up to the entrance would be an impediment for mobility challenges.
Breakfast at the café was good, lots of choices.
Our bathroom was down the hall from the room, which was inconvenient but workable.
Overall we enjoyed our stay.

L'endroit est vraiment sympathique, on s'y sent très bien, comme dans un petit cocon au-dessus du joli café Krieghoff. Nous aurions une réserve concernant l'offre de \"déjeuner inclus\": quand on réserve, il y a possibilité d'ajouter le déjeuner pour 15$ par personne, mais cette \"offre\" n'est en réalité qu'un crédit reporté sur le déjeuner. Au moment de manger, tout ce qui dépasse le montant doit être défrayé par le client. Pourquoi parler de \"déjeuner inclus\"? Mystère. Nous vous conseillons donc de ne pas opter pour cette option. Veuillez bien conserver votre courriel de confirmation: le numéro de votre chambre y est inscrit et vous en aurez besoin à l'arrivée puisqu'il n'y a personne pour vous accueillir.

My husband and I loved our time at Hotel Krieghoff. The room (#5) had everything we needed and was incredibly clean and comfortable. Although this room is right off of the main lobby, it has double doors and is very quiet. It was nice having access to the mini fridge, water, and lounge area right outside our room. We had no contact with the staff, but felt if we needed something they would be able to accommodate.

We found the hotel to be perfectly situated, as we spent our few days walking between Old Quebec, Saint Sauveur, Saint Roch, and Saint Jean Baptist neighborhoods. The offerings on Av. Cartier we're also great: plenty of restaurants, epiceries, and treats. The Montcalm neighborhood is a delight with it's tree-lined streets and easy access to the Plains of Abraham.

Parking was a breeze as well. We arrived on a Saturday, so were able to leave our car on the street for two days. Then, we moved it to the (very affordable) public lot a block away.

I will definitely be recommending this hotel to friends and will certainly stay here again!

The pros: very clean, the street the hotel is on is very nice, full of cafes and small markets, not a far walk from old Quebec.
The Cons: we booked the room with a private bathroom. But the bathroom was not in the actual room. You had to walk down a bright hallway to get there. Not fun in the middle
Of the night. Also, there is no real hotel office- you get the keys from the cafe downstairs. So you don’t really have anyone to ask questions.
