Absolutely fabulous views of the fjord from the dining room and the patio area adjacent to the hotel and parking area. There is a road in front of the hotel, but it is far enough below the hotel level that it does not enter into your view of the fjord. Comfortable adirondacks available to lounge in and enjoy some wine, etc with your view. Food was a bit hit or miss. There is a five course table d'hote menu, a three course, and an a la carte menu as well. The Panda greatly enjoyed the filet on the first night, but found it a bit chewy the second night. I had a fabulous gravlox app the first night, but the soup (cream of turnip) was not something I would have ordered if it wasn't included. The bison the first night was a little rare / chewy, but the cod on the second was perfect. Desserts were excellent at both meals (creme brulee, creme caramel). The room was quite small, only about a foot from the wall on one side and maybe two on the other. While the auberge itself is an older property, the room had obviously been updated recently with led lighting, an interesting closet / dresser solution, and flat screen tv (I think there was only one English channel though). The HVAC was not loud enough to be an issue. The mattress on the bed was softer than I like, and probably should be retired soon. Wifi was better than the average hotel There is also a small bar in the hotel, though we did not take advantage of that. All in all, the issues were far outweighed by the plusses. Staff was friendly, most spoke at least some English, and I would go back in a heartbeat if I had the opportunity. Recommended.

A grand old hotel that looks like it's heyday was in the 80's-90's. The hotel did not look run down but it did look dated in decor. My room was comfortable and healthy in size. It was two Queen beds and had a separate area for sink and mirror and separate toilet area for doing your business. The layout of the room made me feel like I was at my uncles place who lives in a forgone era. He was a slickster back in the day and I'm sure this hotel was just the same. I took a walk and there is a huge water park for the toddlers a big pool and a few hot tubs. Really a large pool complex that you could spend hours at with the kids. The also seemed to have extended hours compared to the usual pool hours which typically closer early at hotels. Lastly the hotel had a happening looking bar with a few lizards hanging around. Also a wonderful restaurant La Seigneurie which I ate at. I'll review that separately but their specialty is beef! Hotel WIFI was a bit slow at peak periods in the evening but that's par for the course. Hotel room also had a fridge which was a nice pleasant surprise. Overall a comfortable stay and I'm sure the best hotel in the region. A great place to stay at with kids but come with tapered expectations.

I was amazed at the overall personal care I was provided at La Sagueneenne from making sure I had a taxi to take me to the hospital each day.

Many hotels I called in the area, would not speak to me. Maybe due to my limited French language ability. And just told me they have no rooms available or wanted a very high amount of money for a room almost to the point of gouging. La Sagueneennee is heads above the rest of the hotels in Saguenay!

It's fairly new, sleek, offers wine stations on two floors, and did I mention the spa? Even better, the spa that is open late, offering massages until 7pm. The rooms are beautiful, the nespresso machine is always a win for me, and the beds are super comfortable. The staff was kind, especially one who taught me how to use their coffee machine and then gave it to me on the house! They do have one of the slowest registration experiences that Ive had in a hotel recently. Each afternoon there was a long line of people checking in and unlike most hotels that just take your card and ID, here you have to recite your mailing address and email to them. I also did not like that the 4th floor was presented like a reserved, private floor, but I heard children running up and down the hallway until very late in the evening.

Bed is plenty comfortable and the curtains do a decent job of blocking the bright morning sunlight (depending on what time of year you're here, of course). Free parking. There is a Tim Horton's within walking distance, as well as Mike's and a Subway, plus a supermarket that is accessible without having to go outside in the weather.

Assuming everything is perfect with what someone would expect from a hotel like this I will list…read moreoff the negatives from our visit to this location and why my review dropped from 5 to 3. 1. The AC unit is one of those units mounted to the wall under the window, something I would expect from an older outdated hotel. 2. The shower had very little water pressure, I think I've felt rain with more pressure. 3. Although the hotel looks generally updated with modern features, none of there power outlets have USB ports. There was not one USB charging port in the room, and a quick scan of the common area meeting room in the lobby seemed to also have the same old non-USB outlets. 4. The english translation written in the rooms information booklet could use a good rewrite, some of the translation just doesn't make sense. (This is very minor and I wouldn't even mention it if I wasn't making a list with other items) 5. There isn't a change room for the pool or exercise room. 6. We were told the outdoor pool is heated, but clearly they meant "not heated" or "heated by the sun only". Thankfully it was a very nice day and the cool water was refreshing. 7. The toilet in our room would not flush correctly and would constantly get stuck and keep running unless the handle was jiggled just the right way. (If home I'd fix it myself, but when paying for a hotel room like things I won't be touching that. Its vacation for a reason after all) 8. Multiple lights were out in the elevator buttons so you could never be sure of a successful floor selection until the doors reopened. On the plus side, the hotel is very clean, mostly current updates and very friendly staff. I would have no problem staying here again and if most of the issues from my list we fixed my review would easily be a 5.
