We like rustic places. We enjoyed the beautiful setting, and the rustic restaurant. We like to cross-country ski at nearby Parc Dufresne. The problem is the standard room, which are lower than a 2 star motel. Completely run-down, need painting and total refurbishment. Not so clean nor comfortable. We came here with a 50% Groupon coupon. Well, the deal wasn't... More

This grand hotel has a famous reputation to keep up. You can see how proud it was, in its time. It has a unique location, waterfront, on a sleepy street in a sleepy town. The circular driveway has a fun ice sculpture in the center of the round about and easy parking. Check in was friendly and efficient. Our room... More

Living in the town next to La Sapiniere, I have enjoyed the restaurant for close to 40 years. On December 30 th 2012, we reserved a table for four. First, I noticed that all the regular staff was nowhere to be seen. The first "part time" waiter, a student, was not familiar with the special winws promoted by the hotel.... More

This is a fasinating old place that has held onto enough of its vintage look and feel to make it feel like visting an old European resort. Back in 1935 this was a high end place for wealthy people. The buildings were made to last with heavy stone walls. We were in room 160, a suite with a classic original... More

La Sapiniere is a beautiful old hotel that must have been considered quite stately many years ago. It is still very nice, however it does need some work. The setting is quite beautiful and peaceful. The dining room in the hotel is located along the waterfront; the large windows allows diners to see the spectacular views. There are a lot... More

La Sapiniere is a grand old hotel in a beautiful setting that clearly needs a lot of maintenance work. You will see paint pealing, broken sidewalks, large puddles, things in disrepair in many places around the hotel. We were "upgraded" to room 166... This room didn't have wifi, had a vaguely moldy smell that got kicked up big time when... More

We stayed at La Sapiniere on the way to Mont Tremblant- We were very disappointed in the room - there was no air conditioning, the carpets were dirty, old decor. They need a lot of upgrading We did have a meal in their dining room and it was very good. But I would not stay there again. On checking out,... More

Visited the Restaurant of this former ( built in 1936) centre of Laurentian Gastronomy. The building itself is getting old with little or no capital injection that I have noticed over the last few years. The once elegant dinning room, now is dull; furniture is dated and I hate to say it... but my wife noted a slight musty smell.... More

We visited La Sapiniere as an overnight stop over for our bike trip on le petit train du nord. This hotel may be the only place in Val David offering two queen beds in the room, if that is important to you. La Sapiniere is only a few hundred meters from the bike trail. We rode our bikes with our... More
