A grand old hotel that looks like it's heyday was in the 80's-90's. The hotel did not look run down but it did look dated in decor. My room was comfortable and healthy in size. It was two Queen beds and had a separate area for sink and mirror and separate toilet area for doing your business. The layout of the room made me feel like I was at my uncles place who lives in a forgone era. He was a slickster back in the day and I'm sure this hotel was just the same. I took a walk and there is a huge water park for the toddlers a big pool and a few hot tubs. Really a large pool complex that you could spend hours at with the kids. The also seemed to have extended hours compared to the usual pool hours which typically closer early at hotels. Lastly the hotel had a happening looking bar with a few lizards hanging around. Also a wonderful restaurant La Seigneurie which I ate at. I'll review that separately but their specialty is beef! Hotel WIFI was a bit slow at peak periods in the evening but that's par for the course. Hotel room also had a fridge which was a nice pleasant surprise. Overall a comfortable stay and I'm sure the best hotel in the region. A great place to stay at with kids but come with tapered expectations.

Every front desk staff member I have interacted with (at least 4-5 of them) was as helpful as possible. They helped me communicate with the tow company in French, the car repair place also in French, and rental and bus alternatives in French as well. They helped order taxis when we needed to get around because we didn't have a car. They printed my bus tickets for me. They let me use the phone to make calls to sort things out and helped me get in touch with my insurance company. They were accommodating when we needed to come back and stay extra nights when the car was still not fixed. Everyone here was so friendly and the hotel itself is really quaint and beautiful and the rooms are very comfortable. I would definitely make this my first choice on any return trips to the Saguenay/La Baie area. Thank you, Auberge Des 21: you made our difficult situation much easier by taking some of the stress out of it for us and being so unbelievably helpful and friendly :)

Had a 2 night stay for a vacation in the fall colors and a bit of whale watching…read more First, the view cannot be beat! Absolutely fabulous views of the fjord from the dining room and the patio area adjacent to the hotel and parking area. There is a road in front of the hotel, but it is far enough below the hotel level that it does not enter into your view of the fjord. Comfortable adirondacks available to lounge in and enjoy some wine, etc with your view. Food was a bit hit or miss. There is a five course table d'hote menu, a three course, and an a la carte menu as well. The Panda greatly enjoyed the filet on the first night, but found it a bit chewy the second night. I had a fabulous gravlox app the first night, but the soup (cream of turnip) was not something I would have ordered if it wasn't included. The bison the first night was a little rare / chewy, but the cod on the second was perfect. Desserts were excellent at both meals (creme brulee, creme caramel). The room was quite small, only about a foot from the wall on one side and maybe two on the other. While the auberge itself is an older property, the room had obviously been updated recently with led lighting, an interesting closet / dresser solution, and flat screen tv (I think there was only one English channel though). The HVAC was not loud enough to be an issue. The mattress on the bed was softer than I like, and probably should be retired soon. Wifi was better than the average hotel There is also a small bar in the hotel, though we did not take advantage of that. All in all, the issues were far outweighed by the plusses. Staff was friendly, most spoke at least some English, and I would go back in a heartbeat if I had the opportunity. Recommended.

It's fairly new, sleek, offers wine stations on two floors, and did I mention the spa? Even better, the spa that is open late, offering massages until 7pm. The rooms are beautiful, the nespresso machine is always a win for me, and the beds are super comfortable. The staff was kind, especially one who taught me how to use their coffee machine and then gave it to me on the house! They do have one of the slowest registration experiences that Ive had in a hotel recently. Each afternoon there was a long line of people checking in and unlike most hotels that just take your card and ID, here you have to recite your mailing address and email to them. I also did not like that the 4th floor was presented like a reserved, private floor, but I heard children running up and down the hallway until very late in the evening.

In further looking at the pictures I saw the beautiful view of the fjord and was sold. So we booked it and Saturday morning we did the 8+ hour drive from Boston to get there. Upon entering we were greeted with a nice warm smile and a meaningful Bonjour! and something more which I couldn't understand as my conversational French is minimal. Upon my returning the Bonjour and asking to check in in English our friend quickly switched to English and we had a pleasant chat. As we were tired from the drive just wanted to get something to eat and take a quick nap before venturing out for a late night of gazing at the heavens we accepted the offer to eat in the hotels restaurant. Mind you as a rule I don't usually eat in a hotel restaurant as the food is usually pretty mediocre but we made an exception in this case. Boy oh boy am I glad we did. That night you had two options - ordering off the regular menu or the Chef had made up a table d'hote that you could order from. So the wife and I did the table d'hote - 4 courses each. We had escargot in a cream type sauce and smoked salmon mousse for appetizers. The next course was a beef consume based soup. The entrees were turkey with mashed potatoes with cranberry sauce, and duck stuffed cannelloni with a salad. Desert was Black Forest Cake. To say the least we were blown away with the quality of the food. Everything was so delicious not one bad thing to say about the meal at all. Everything was just incredibly delicious! Talk about your hidden gems this is definitely one of them and the price was under priced in my opinion for what you got. We were so impressed we did brunch the next day with very good results as well. As for the hotel, as others have mentioned it is been completely remodeled as far as we can tell very recently. Everything was clean, neat, smelled nice, an was warm and inviting. We had a room with a view of the fjord and that was a beautiful sight to wake up to after a long night. All the staff we encountered were very helpful spoke English well enough so we could be comfortable in talking with them and were just very friendly. I can't recommend this please highly enough to anyone that would like a nice quiet romantic get a away for a weekend! It is an awesome place and I wish them the best of luck they deserve it. The wife and I would definitely stay here again without any hesitation.
