There aren't a lot of choices for hotels in Shawinigan. This one proved adequate but like most hotels much depends on which room you end up in. As it turned out we got a decent one at the back of the hotel that was clean and mostly in good repair (a few cracks in the plaster in the bathroom here... More

We stayed at this hotel over the Christmas Holidays. The room smelt like sewage, loud neighbours, no elevator, old and loud in room heaters (kept us up at night), poorly designed washroom, no appropriate shower head, uncooked chicken from room service, pool area not well kept. The staff was pleasant.... Do not stay at this Hotel!!!

We attended a two day conference and therefore, we were there for three nights. The room was a little small but clean. The air conditionning system was somewhat tempermental. There was a strange smell (sewers) in the hallway. The staff was a little stiff at the front desk. Smiles cost extra I believe. The rooms were nice and quiet. The... More

We slept there and the hotel was sold-out because of a major sporting event in the area. Prices had been generously raised because of that fact and the only other option, a Comfort inn, was also sold-out. Pros: hotel is located on the waterfront in a nice area and staff was very good and efficient even if the hotel was... More

Located in the Willow district of Shawinigan, a charming city long in history, the Auberge des Gouverneurs is facing the Saint-Maurice River and close by to a slew of great restaurants, pubs and the 300 plus years old down town, all at walking distance. Service was just perfect, all the usual details are there plus some delicate attentions. There is... More

Let's start by putting things straight This hotel is located in shawinigan, hardly a big city. In fact, I'm convinced that it's the best hotel out there but I still don't see how it can be rated a 4 star hotel by any means We booked a basic room (renovated) the room itself was a decent size nice TV looked...

My wife and I stayed here for two nights. The room is basic but very clean. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and it was particularly quiet. The floors in the rooms are not carpeted but they were very clean and there is no bath in the bathroom... only a shower. That might... More

Spent two nights and found the hotel to be well-located, with a beautiful view of the river. Quiet, but not far from the local restaurants. On site restaurant served a good buffet breakfast, and our room was immaculate. Pool area was undergoing renovations, but it didn't affect our stay in any way. I think that, having stayed in other hotels... More
