4-star historic bed and breakfast attached to North America's oldest grocery store

Historic Grocery & On-Site Dining

Auberge J.A Moisan is built around the historic J.A Moisan épicerie, founded in 1871 as the oldest grocery store in North America. The hotel offers a selection of over 1,500 bottles of local wines and more than 200 varieties of beers and ciders from Quebec microbreweries. Daily prepared ready-to-eat meals use fresh local ingredients, and a continental breakfast with local specialties and fresh baked croissants is included.

Victorian-Style Rooms & Common Spaces

Each room is furnished in Victorian style with antique pieces that maintain the historical charm of the 1871 building. Guests have access to a shared lounge, a sun terrace, and a rooftop patio for relaxation. A shared kitchen and complimentary tea and coffee are available 24 hours a day.

The hotel is located on Rue Saint-Jean in Old Quebec - Upper Town, with views of the city. Popular attractions such as Morrin Centre and Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac are within walking distance. The Quartier du Petit Champlain is a 15-minute walk away, and many restaurants and shops are steps from the door.

Breakfast with Local Specialties

A buffet and continental breakfast is served daily, featuring local specialties, fresh pastries, and fruits. Freshly baked croissants are a highlight, along with local cheeses and charcuterie. The breakfast can be enjoyed in the solarium or on the terrace during warmer months.

Wine & Craft Beer Selection

The attached épicerie stocks an extensive collection of over 1,500 bottles of prestigious local wines. Guests can also choose from more than 200 varieties of beers and ciders produced by Quebec microbreweries. The store offers a full range of fine products including coffee, cheese, and charcuterie for purchase.

Its location in Old Quebec puts guests within easy reach of attractions like the Morrin Centre, while on-site features, from the shared lounge to the rooftop patio, allow for relaxation.
