Le Capitole Hotel
Glamorous and theatrical. Art Deco grandeur meets contemporary luxury. Think bold design statements — heated marble floors, LALIQUE bath products, sweeping city views — rather than understated minimalism. The place leans into its history as a performance venue without feeling museum-like.

Why It Matters
One of the only hotels in Quebec City directly connected to a working performance theater. The building dates to the early 20th century and has been reimagined as a 108-room luxury hotel with a CAA Four Diamond rating. The 9e Ciel Penthouse at 153 m² is among the most dramatic accommodations in the city.
Le Capitole is a theatrical hotel in every sense — it shares a building with the historic Théâtre Capitole, sits just steps from the St-Jean Gate, and looks the part with Art Deco bones, gold accents, and deep jewel tones. Rooms range from compact Citadines to the 153 m² penthouse with a grand piano and panoramic views of Old Quebec and the Laurentians. The 9th-floor heated pool, Clefs d'Or concierge, and 25-year-old Il Teatro restaurant set a high bar even by Old Quebec standards.
Where You'll Stay
12 room types available
9e Ciel Penthouse
The top of the building in every sense. The 9e Ciel (Ninth Heaven) Penthouse is 153 m² on the top floor with a panoramic view of Old Quebec and the Laurentians. It has a double-sided fireplace, a baby grand piano, a fully equipped kitchenette, a bar area, a large terrace, bathtub, and a connecting room for two more guests. Valet is included. You book this one by phone — not online.
Two King beds and one sofa bed · 153 sqmCitadine Room with 2 Queen Beds

Two Queen beds · 35 sqmCitadine Room with King Bed
The standard Citadine configuration with a King bed at 24 m². A clean, comfortable base for couples who want a proper King without splurging on a suite.
One King bed · 24 sqmCitadine Room with King Bed (Old Quebec View)
King bed with a view of Old Quebec. At 24 m² it's a compact space, but the Old Quebec sightlines from these rooms are the real draw.
One King bed · 24 sqmCitadine Room with King Bed and Balcony
A step up from the standard Citadine — this one has a private balcony. At 28 m² it's not cavernous, but the outdoor space makes it feel considerably larger.
One King bed · 28 sqmCitadine Room with King Bed and Sofa Bed
At 37 m², this is one of the larger standard room configurations. Works well for two adults and up to two kids under 12. The sofa bed gives flexibility without the full suite price.

One Queen bed · 26 sqmCitadine Room with Queen Bed (Old Quebec View)
Same footprint as the base Citadine but oriented toward Old Quebec. Slightly smaller at 24 m², but the view upgrades the experience considerably.
One Queen bed · 24 sqmCitadine Suite
The entry-level suite. A genuine suite at 63 m² with a bathtub where you can soak while looking out over Old Quebec. Refined, intimate décor makes it popular for romantic stays.
One King bed and one sofa bed · 63 sqmHorizon Room
The standout room category. At 45 m², the Horizon Room has expansive floor-to-ceiling windows framing Old Quebec and the nearby mountains, a private balcony, and a genuinely luxurious bathroom with heated marble floors and LALIQUE bath products. This is where the property starts to feel truly special.
One King bed · 45 sqmHorizon Suite
The largest of the named suites short of the Penthouse. At 79 m², it has a bathtub in the room, powder room plus separate bathroom, dining room, and a work desk — equally suited to a business traveler entertaining clients or a couple celebrating something significant.

An art gallery within the hotel complex featuring rotating exhibitions. A quiet counterpoint to the more theatrical offerings in the building.
