It was a wonderful tour. We got to see an inside view and hear about the history of the building and the people who visited. It’s a great 1-hour tour!

I did the Visit of the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac and it was awesome! I learned so much about the Château and our guide was incredible, he was extremely funny, engaging and entertaining all while delivering a splendid tour! It is a great way to learn more and see the inside without being a guest and the cost of the tour is 100% worth it.

The hotel is amazing, felt the tour was a bit weak, didn't get to see much other than the lobby

The tour of the chateau Frontenac in Quebec is not worth the money. The guide was very informative and funny she was excellent. The problem was it wasn't much of a tour we saw the lobby and a few hallways . No tour of the blue room or any other ballroom. The only reason I gave it 3 star rating is because of the tour guide. We learned alot about the hotel but didn't see much .

The guide was excellent informative and entertaining but we didn't see much of the hotel. It would have nice to see the rose room and other ball rooms. What we saw we could have done on our own. The guide provided alot of interesting historical information in a entertaining and informative manner. She was fantastic but didn't show us alot of the hotel.

Light, informative and very accessible, our guide put us in the time of the building, events and purpose of the chateau.

Our guide was very informative and engaging. It was VERY cold before our tour, so thankfully he moved us in to the lobby quickly instead of spending too much time outdoors looking at the architecture.
