Nice and clean room and very pleasant and friendly owners. It was raining when we arrived and parked our car. My wife was looking for an umbrella in the car, when she realized that one of the owners was already standing by the car with an open umbrella waiting for her. The next morning we ordered a breakfast. It was beautifully arranged on the plate and so delicious! This was without a doubt the best omelet we ever had!

A very comfortable and friendly place to stay. The staff were great and the meals were delicious. Our room was spacious, comfortable, nicely decorated, and very clean and quiet. We also really appreciated that they allow pets - and there was no "pet smell" from previous visitors. A great place to stay near the highway in a charming village.

The riomd are lovely. There is a huge porch overlooking the water. We perched on rocking chairs and enjoyed the view and the lovely gardens for an hour to unwind from a long day of driving. We were served a delicious breakfast on the porch the next morning. The inn is decorated with a french flair. Beautiful.

Fantastic spot near Lac Témiscouata
Booked this auberge for a night for a place to stay on our way to the Maritimes. We were greeted very well considering how late into the night it was and enjoyed a lovely breakfast out on the deck before hitting the road the next day. What a great spot in such a cute town - wished we had set aside more time there. I will definitely return to what fet like a French Lunenburg :)

Lovely Inn
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely inn. The owner could not have been nicer. He walked us to our room. We had room #1 with a lake view and a Juliette balcony. They even had robes! We had a delicious dinner on the porch out front We also had breakfast in the morning with generous fruit. Do not hesitate to book this Inn

Nice hotel with some water views. Lovely porch.
Stayed here on our way from Ottawa to PEI...was a great half way point. Hotel was lovely and clean. The owner was most hospitable. Although we arrived on a Tuesday, which happens to be the only night that dinner is not served in the dining room, the owner directed us to a diner up the street, which ticked the box. Our room was spacious with comfortable beds. We were served the most wonderful breakfast in the dining room the following morning. Would definitely recommend this hotel!

Beginning of our Quebec getaway
Was very impressed with our stay at Auberge la Dolce Vita. We were welcomed upon our arrival by our friendly host. The room was well appointed. We ate at the restaurant for supper and breakfast and the food was delicious and also very well presented. Would recommend this Inn to others.

A Nice Welcome
We had a nice stay at this hotel. I forgot to inform the hotel we had a pet dog and the manager was very accommodating. The room was very clean. But it was a bit cramped for a family of 4 (double bed with a pull out couch) but we weren't complaining. The manager (sorry I can't remember his name) is A+. Will definitely stay again on our way through.

We were just looking for a stop overnight on our way home from a long road trip vacation. The hotel owner greeted us from the parking lot and personally showed us our room. He already knew ahead of time that weekend we're travelling with children and had the sofa bed opened and made up for them to go to sleep. It was just a short walk to a beautiful lake a marina where there was a well-kept paved path for walking/cycling and a a lovely playground. We had wanted to try the restaurant at the aubergine but our little toddler was a little bit rambunctious after being strapped in a car seat for 6 hours so we took a short drive into town where there were numerous family friendly places to dine before going to bed. The sofa bed was a good size but the mattress was less than comfortable, unfortunately. My better half had wanted to watch a bit of TV so we let the kids have the main bed (I tested it out before retiring to the sofa bed and I can honestly say that that bed was perfect!) We did not sleep well with this arrangement but at least the kids woke up rested and happy for the next 5 hour leg of our trip. Despite the lumpy sofa bed, I would highly recommend this place, especially for a couple or single person looking for a clean, quiet place to relax.

Welcoming, homey while keeping professional!
My sister and I were driving home (Toronto) from PEI and needed a place to stay for the night to break up the drive. We were not too concerned about the area or hotel as we just needed a place to sleep so did not look into this booking too closely. We were so pleasantly surprised to find this lovely hotel in a quaint beautiful town on the lake! The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The room was perfect and felt very homey. In the morning we had breakfast at the restaurant and paid an amazing guest rate for one of our best breakfasts of the trip! We wish we could've stayed longer and explored the area more.

Great stay!!
On our way from Ontario to New Brunswick, stayed here for one night. The owner greeted us out back and helped with the luggage. The dinner on the front porch was excellent, and the server helped with the French menu, and was totally fun and charming! The staff is fluently bilingual. The room was lovely and well equipped. I'd highly recommend it. I'm sorry we didn't have time to explore the town and lake shore.

Lovely small town coziness
The inn is in a lovely location with very convenient parking. The room was comfortable, with very pleasing decor. We, unfortunately, were booked on the night of the week that their dining room was closed, and finding alternatively dining was very limited. I would stay again, hopefully when the dining room was open, because it looked very appealing.
