Some addresses stand out for their refinement and prestige. In Quebec City, two suites rank among the most luxurious: the penthouse at Hôtel Capitole and the Royal Suite at Hôtel Port Royal. Offering an unparalleled experience, these exceptional spaces have welcomed renowned personalities, from international artists to prominent political figures.
Perched atop the prestigious Le Capitole Hôtel, the 9e Ciel Penthouse offers an unparalleled luxury experience in the heart of Old Québec. This establishment, honored with the CAA-AAA Four Diamond distinction, now joins the exclusive ranks of North America’s finest hotels, alongside Fairmont Le Château Frontenac and Auberge Saint-Antoine.
From the moment you step inside, you are immediately captivated by the breathtaking view. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows surround the space, unveiling a stunning panorama of Old Québec and the Laurentian Mountains.

The adjoining bathroom, with its heated marble floors, adds an extra touch of comfort. A second connecting bedroom allows for additional guests, making this penthouse perfectly suited for any occasion—whether a romantic getaway or a group stay.
