Description:
This monster version of a Loire Valley palace is Québec City's emblem, its Eiffel Tower. Visitors curious about the interior can take a 50-minute guided tour, which is led by a costumed guide. The hotel opened in 1893 to house railroad passengers and encourage tourism; it's visible from almost every quarter of the city, commanding its majestic position atop Cap Diamant, the rock bluff that once provided military defense. Tour reservations are recommended.
