When it comes to activities my favourite is the ability to swim outdoors during all seasons!! One can swim indoors and outdoors in the heated pools that provide a breathtaking view of Lac de la Carrière. Chihuly’s artwork can be found throughout the lobby and as you drive in be sure to check out the roundabout as the “Cycle de vie” sculpture was inspired by an ice sculpture created by three casino employees. Two things really stand out for me at the Hilton Lac-Leamy – the amazing artwork and the number of activities on offer under one roof!From the moment I stepped in and marveled at the Chihuly glasswork, I was totally held captivated. It’s an 18+ lounge which really helped us revel in the kid-free time. While the main breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant offers a larger spread, I prefer the tranquility of the Conrad for breakfast. We sadly missed the evening happy hour but did swing by for breakfast. We had a busy night ahead and only an hour to unwind but we made the most of it. We were staying in one of the executive rooms which gave us access to the Conrad lounge.

With no kids around, the hubs and I enjoyed a Quebec beer in our room and caught up on some work.

I loved waking up to the water view and totally regret not taking in the sunset from the hotel because it would have been SPECTACULAR! Here’s the reason most of their hotel rooms have over-sized windows! The main difference at Hilton Lac-Leamy is that nearly all rooms have a spectacular view of the area. As with nearly all our Hilton Hotel experiences, the bed was uber comfy and the service attentive. We got to enjoy the Quebec charm whilst still soaking in some of that city life and that was a win-win. This worked out well for us as we were able to enjoy a fantastic meal at Soif and then link up with some friends in Ottawa.

Located on the shores of Leamy Lake in Gatineau, Hilton Lac-Leamy is in close proximity to Ottawa as well. From the moment I entered this hotel in Quebec I was captivated by the amazing artwork I saw throughout the expansive property which is home to multi-levels of entertainment.ĭisclosure : Our stay was complimentary as part of the prize we won through Tourism Outaouais and Travel Massive but, as always, opinions are TOTALLY ours. During our second night on that quick Quebec weekend getaway we checked into the Hilton Lac-Leamy.

Having spent a month travelling around with the kids, I was reflecting on our romantic getaway to the Outaouais region this past November.
