La cuisine est 5 étoile j'ai agréablement aimé l'expérience. Il n'y avais pas de musique quand nous sommes venu, le reste étais nickel, très très propre & soigné comme restaurant.

I tried the afternoon tea service here over the weekend & it was lovely. The staff are super friendly. We arrived earlier than our reservation & they were able to fit us in earlier as well. The french macaron was a little dry & some items weren't to my tastes, but overall the service & food assortment was great. My favourite item was the scone & the raspberry blackcurrant spread for it. I was actually quite full & couldn't finish all of the sweets. Our table was right next to the window & had a beautiful view of the city line across the river. I would definitely recommend trying it out at least once.

Excellent breakfast in an iconic location with a great atmosphere. You can enjoy as much food as you'd like, along with drip coffee, orange juice, & more. Their omelette was delicious. The bakery section was quite large, though we honestly didn't try much from it because the breakfast options were already more than enough & very filling.

The price is around 45 CAD per person (plus tax & tip, of course), but it's worth it, especially considering that most places charge little less amount without offering an open buffet option. Definitely worth to try once.

We weren't staying at the hotel but we were still able to have breakfast here one day. The food was great. There was a wide array of food available & it was all very good. The apple juice was also really tasty. It was more like apple cider & we really enjoyed it. The staff were very welcoming & spoke English which was really helpful for us. The only reason I gave it four stars & not five is because it cost $50 per person for a breakfast buffet. It was a good breakfast but that price is a bit high.

Great breakfast option in a stunning, iconic location. For around $35 USD, you get as much food as you'd like (did not capture everything in the photo) along with drip coffee & views of the St. Lawrence River. We enjoyed everything we ate, particularly the assortment of pastries, & had a wonderful time exploring the hotel's boutiques afterwords.

Overall, I'm glad that we did this, but I wouldn't do it again. The tea was beautiful. The room & lighting & piano music & the presentation of the food were all pitch perfect. Also, the staff were wonderful.

The food, itself, ranged from okay to good with two exceptions. There was a biscuit/scone that was amazing with clotted cream, orange marmalade & raspberry jam. It was to die for. & the then there was a profiterole with a chocolate cream & caramel. It was truly exceptional. Everything else was very average.

In summary, fun experience & ambience. Average food.
