Best Hotels in Trois-Rivières, QC

Trois-Rivières is one of Canada's oldest cities (founded 1634), sitting at the confluence of the Saint-Maurice and St. Lawrence Rivers midway between Montreal (1.5 hours) and Quebec City (1.5 hours). It's a beautifully preserved colonial city and the self-declared poetry capital of Canada, hosting the International Poetry Festival every summer.

The charming Vieux-Trois-Rivières (Old Town) with its 17th and 18th-century architecture, the Forges du Saint-Maurice (Canada's first industrial site), and the Musée de la civilisation québécoise make it an excellent cultural stopover on the Quebec City Corridor.
