Fodor's Expert Review Fairmont Le Reine Elizabeth
900 boul. René-Lévesque Ouest, Québec, H3B 4A5, Canada Fodor's Choice
Le Reine Elizabeth's 2017 retro-chic makeover boasts contemporary mid-century modern interiors; a huge market and food hall; a gorgeous pool redo and new spa; and creative meeting hubs, all the while preserving the property's iconic heritage (John and Yoko's 1969 "bed-in" suite [1742] has been carefully restored and enhanced with artifacts from the day). Atmospheric art deco restaurant Rosélys, helmed by Paris-trained chef Edgar Trudeau-Ferrin, is popular with locals for its posh cocktails, friendly and attentive service, and ever-changing menu. Vegetarians—and vegans in particular—can be accommodated but should call ahead.
