Fourteenth, level on 33 with five others and last of them — because its own pages list no parking. The Nelligan is AAA Four Diamond, in restored 19th-century buildings on rue Saint-Paul, with Mama C and a rooftop terrace over the Old Port.
It calls this "a new chapter", with redesigned rooms and a spa due in early 2027.
Its pages give no dates for the work — and no breakfast, parking or check-in details either.
Confirm your room is ready for your dates, and walk or cab to the Grand Quay.
