The "Le Concorde" hotel is
an award winning CAA-AAA Four Diamond Hotel
that sits between the historic Plains of
Abraham and Quebec City's entertainment
district, around Grande-Allee Street. It
contains 406 guest rooms, including 16 Junior
Suites, 1 Vice Presidential and 2 Presidential
Duplex Penthouse Suites, located over 26
floors. It also offers 24,000 square
feet of function space including a 7,236
square foot ballroom. On the roof is the
circular L'Astral restaurant that rotates to
provide diners with excellent views of the
city, the St. Lawrence, and beyond.

On November 22, 2013,
leSoleil ran a story announcing that, "According to our information,
the Loews hotel chain which is
headquartered in New York has reached
an agreement with a major investor for
the sale of its 405 hotel rooms on 26
floors. 'There's a buyer. We're
talking about a conversion of the
building for mixed purposes. We speak of
luxury residences for students and
possibly office space'"
This appears to be something of a trend in the
province since the 711 room Delta Centre-Ville
closed in October 2013 to be converted into a
residence for university students.
