Café Krieghoff, is a wonderful little boutique hotel centrally located with a decent price for the location. After a long drive & late work shift the night before I slept great a solid 9 hours bed was very comfortable. We awoke the next morning to go downstairs to a great breakfast the homemade bagel with melted Swiss cheese & house jam was amazing with the Americano coffee. Lounge area was great also nice clean bathroom/shower. Also appreciated the books in the lounge & room nice to have some historical references of the area.

This is one of my favourite cafés I visit everytime I'm in Quebec City! Awesome coffee, great food, & a wonderful presence that makes every meal an experience. & minutes away from the Plains D'Abraham. June 2024 update: Still the same experience which in itself is amazing. Many places lose their edge or have closed. Café Krieghoff is still busier than ever & going strong. Great ambiance on the sidewalk patio. January 2025 update: I had an amazing cappuccino from my favourite café this afternoon! I love the ambiance & the care they put into what they do. Always highly recommended if you're in Québec City.

Petit souper en amoureux avant d'aller au Grand Théâtre de Québec. Tout a été parfait; ambiance cozy, nourriture très bonne à un prix raisonnable, service hors pair. Le tout à proximité de la salle de spectacle. Je recommande sans hésiter.
