Why one hotel?
Guides that cover every hotel in a province tend to say a little about each. We wanted to say a lot about one. Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu is a building with a long history, a complicated room list, a casino next door, a golf course with its own century, and a region around it that changes completely from July to January. It deserves more than a paragraph, and travellers deserve to know, before they book, which of its 405 rooms will actually look at the river.
How we work
We began this site in 2026. Every fact on it comes from a source we read ourselves: first the hotel's own pages, then Loto-Québec's for the casino, then official bodies — the Quebec government, Parks Canada, UNESCO, the ferry company, the tourism office — and only then Wikipedia, which we name as a secondary source whenever we use it. We record the date we read each page. When two sources disagree, we print both.
We do not visit on the hotel's invitation and we have not accepted free stays. The illustrations on the site are painted images made for us, clearly labelled as illustrations, not photographs of the hotel.
What we will not publish
- Room prices, because they change every day and an old price is worse than none.
- Invented guest reviews, quotations or personalities.
- Gaming offers, promotions, game information or anything that reads as an invitation to gamble.
- Dates for events that the organiser has not published.
What we do
We answer room requests. That is how the site pays for itself, and it is explained in full on notre modèle. A request is a question, not a booking; we check and reply, you decide.
Corrections
If something here is wrong or out of date — a closed restaurant reopened, a fee changed, a new event announced — please tell us at hello@lamalbaiestays.com. We correct errors quickly and change the date at the foot of the page.
Independence
La Malbaie Stays is not the official website of Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu or of the Casino de Charlevoix, and it is not affiliated with Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, Accor or Loto-Québec. Their names are used only to describe the places we write about.
