One of the things I like most about road trips is to discover not only new places, but also the welcoming and charming places where rest and surcharge on the road. On my trip through the Maritime region of Quebec, I stayed in a mixture of hotels and inns that perfectly balanced the comfort, character and a sense of place. From impressive views in Percé to the historical charm in gaspé and local hospitality in Saint-Pacôme, each stay had something special.
Here is a look where to stay in the maritime regions of Quebec, and why I would happily register me again.

Where to stay in the maritime regions of Québec
Québec’s maritime regions, such as Percé and Gaspé, are full of coastal charm, picturesque units and a warm local hospitality. On my road trip through the area, I stayed in a variety of places, from cozy Aubergas (Small, often relatives) to top -level hotels with all comforts.
What made the experience really memorable was the personal touch. Some hosts went further, offering internal advice and making me feel at home. If you really want to connect with the region and its people, staying in local places is the way to follow.
Here is a look at some of the outstanding places where I stayed on the road.
