Chateau Murdock Gite et Esthétique 1950

We very much enjoyed our three-night stay here. Natalie is an excellent host. She made us very comfortable and she was extremely helpful in directing us to several things--a hike, a zoo, a whale watch--that we probably wouldn't have found on our own. She recommended and made reservations for us at restaurants that we thoroughly enjoyed. Everything was clean and comfortable and there was a nice breakfast in the morning, including excellent lattes from her husband. Travelers can use this accommodation as a good base for exploring the beautiful Saguenay Fjord.

We were very happy with our three night stay, and would be glad to return when in the area. Our room was called Chateau Lavardens. It has a spacious sitting room in addition to the bedroom and extra space next to the vintage bathroom. We also liked the large closets. There is a beautiful dining room for breakfasts, and the option to have specialty coffees, and a choice of menu items. Nathalie accommodated our lack of French language fluency, and gave recommendations for places to see. There are two cats which kept their distance from us. The grounds of the property are also very nice and spacious.

You can tell that the couple who is the owner and the management of this hotel puts their hearts into this place. It is beautiful! And on top of that, everything is taken care of to its finest details, towels, bedding, lighting, everything. There is a history to the chateau and I am glad the owners have taken up the responsibility to keep it alive. We stayed in the room on the ground floor called St Exupéry so there is a bit of fantasy touch. Would love to try another style another time!

The old building in a very quiet but central area was really impressive. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Nice rooms which don’t loose the old charme of the building but had everything you need(refrigerator, tv, USB ports). Calm and comfy stay. The mattress in our room was a little bit worn out and should be changed. No real problem for us during our two night stay.

If you want to unwind and experience a bit of luxury at a reasonable price, the Chateau Murdock will please you. The inn is found in a quiet residential large city home and gardens nearby other beautiful homes. Breakfasts are extraordinary works of art, including fresh juice, individually made coffees, with toast, unique egg creations, fruits and salads.
