Thank you for your comments. Since the fire at the main hostel, we have indicated on our website that the pool and spa are not available for an indefinite period and this is also indicated on the booking confirmation sent to the client when booking. The mention is also indicated on the Expedia website. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again in the new Hostel that will be rebuilt !!!

Rooms needed upgrading. Pillows were lumpy, TV didn't work, no desk to sit at to work, the front door is locked after a certain hour, and the breakfast served too late for us to partake.

Perfect stopover after a long day of cycling!!!
After 3 days & 150km of cycling on Petit Train the Auberge du Vieux Foyer was a welcome site, even if we had to cycle uphill. As we had recumbent trikes we could not put them in the secure place in the basement. Instead we locked them up in the hotel's bicycle rental area. We were welcomed in by the front desk & was a quick check in.The room was excellent & I was surprised by the Air Tub. Within a short time I was relaxing in the warm tub with 1000's of bubbles massaging my body. My husband enjoyed the separate shower. The internet signal was strong. Lots of places to plug in charging devises. Air conditioner on the wall was very quiet and easily controlled. The front desk arranged a taxi for our dinner. The breakfast the next day was great. Several hot egg choices plus juices, yogurts, cheeses, home-made jams, fresh fruit and coffee and tea as much as you wanted. I saw that you could also arrange for several body treatments & an outdoor pool was available but not on our plan.

The room needs renovation (old carpet, old bedspread) but the excellent breakfast, free ski passes and access to a hot tub compensates for the room. And the price is excellent for what you get.

I was very disappointed of the room. Old wall to wall carpeting with carpet joint undone, quite old comforter should be replaced, lamp wabeling. Bathroom,hum, I had to clean the vanity counter myself. I don't think I will be returning for an overnight stay but I might go for a meal, the cuisine is excellent as is the service. Sad that they don't put the same importance in lodging.

Bicycles!
L'Auberge du Vieux Foyer is located on a quiet country road about a mile east of the village of Val-David. They offer a large array of well maintained bikes that you can borrow for free during your stay. Take advantage of them; the area is a great place to bike. The road back into Val-David has a bike lane. There's also a small well maintained heated pool and a nice hot tub on the grounds, as well as a horseshoe pitch and a couple of paddle boats that guests are free to use. We (two parents and our son) stayed in one of the detached buildings, not in the main lodge. Our room was pleasant and clean, the bed was comfortable. Nice flat screen TV with cable. There was a hot tub in the bathroom, though we didn't use it. The front desk staff were all exceptionally friendly and humored us by pretending that they could understand our attempts at speaking French; they all speak English perfectly. Though this country inn advertises itself as a spa, this is also a great place to take an active family vacation.

Location is great! Comfortable surroundings. Most staff were very welcoming and it was a pleasure to see them day after day. Room carpet was stained and needs to be "refreshed". But overall, I had an enjoyable stay and would return.

Nice place, we would stay here again.
They upgraded the rooms. Lovely place. Bike's are free. One canoe and a couple of petal boats on a very small body of water. Pools small. Whirlpool was nice. Fridge in the room, coffee and tea. The hotel restaurant's food was very good, but under staffed on a busy weekend. Get out and bike ride, railroad trail goes from town to town, get out and enjoy it. St Agatha has a very large lake and restaurants to explore, French, Italian and even German food. Concerts on Saturday in the summer bring a lawn chair. Boating on the Lake. Mont Tremblant is 45-50 minutes away, must see. And St Jovite (40 minutes) has some restaurants.

Such a lovely weekend getaway! We stayed in the deluxe room, enjoyed the warmth of our electric fireplace, while soaking in the jetted tub, ate a delicious multi-course dinner, and relaxed in the spa. The staff was fabulous, immediately changing our booking when we realized we had reserved for the wrong night, thus, from beginning to end, we felt as though we had found refuge from the daily grind.

Rooms are ok, but the hot tub is near the bed. So if one would like privacy, the other will need to leave the room. Rooms are comfortable and equip with air conditioning is a plus. Different room's categories so not all rooms will come with what's indicated on hotels,com. In a nutshell, its ok for a couple of nights.
