Province file

Québec has one casino hotel, and it is our editor's choice

Loto-Québec operates the province's casinos under RACJ supervision, and you can play at 18. The province has a single true casino hotel. It is in Gatineau, facing Ottawa across the river: a Hilton with five stars, joined by corridor to Loto-Québec's Casino du Lac-Leamy. It is also the desk's favourite stay anywhere in Canada.

Québec's one true casino hotel

Hilton Lac-Leamy

over the river from Ottawa (QC) · No. 2 · 4.36/5 (A)

The desk's favourite place to unwind: a five-star Hilton plugged into Loto-Québec's casino, with indoor and outdoor water kept warm through every January, a 17-room Amerispa, a theatre seating 1,100 and upward of 1,400 machines. Parliament Hill is a ten-minute drive across the river.
