Laval University Hotels & Accommodations

Laval University (Université Laval) is situated approximately 10 minutes drive south west of downtown Quebec City, in the district of Sainte-Foy. The question of where to stay when you are visiting Laval University, or its PEPS stadium and sports complex, really depends on the overall goals of your trip and whether you wish to combine your visit with a stay closer to the amenities and visitor attractions of the old town.
Staying in one of the downtown hotels would leave you with a 10 minute drive to the university, while staying in old Quebec City would only put you around 15 mins away.
