Hôtel Baker is the main hotel of Gaspé town, at 178 rue de la Reine, and it is open all year, which makes it the reliable choice in the closed season. Tourisme Gaspésie lists 70 units, with an indoor pool, a spa, a whirlpool tub, a fitness centre, a business centre, a meeting room, an outdoor fireplace, parking, EV charging and WiFi, and it is partially accessible. The restaurant, Tétû, Taverne Gaspésienne, serves breakfast and dinner, and a coffee shop, a terrace and a garden are on site. The booking page shows a wide range of rooms: comfort rooms with a queen or king bed, superior rooms, executive rooms, deluxe rooms with a bay view and luxury rooms with a jetted tub or a hot tub. Several have bay views. The hotel is close to the Birthplace of Canada village and next to a golf course. Rates on the tourism page start at about $164 for double occupancy, and the booking page shows lower prices in the shoulder season. Its class shows as three and a half, so it carries no star rating here.
Location and getting around
The hotel is in the middle of Gaspé town, so the museum, the bay and the restaurants are close, and Forillon National Park's South Area entrance is a short drive. You will want a car for the park and for Percé, but the town itself is walkable. Parking is free, and there is a charging station for electric cars. Michel-Pouliot Gaspé Airport is the nearest airport.
The rooms and the feel
Pick the room type to match the trip. Comfort and superior rooms suit most travellers, and the bay-view and luxury rooms with a tub add comfort for couples. Rooms have private bathrooms, bedding, a mini fridge and air conditioning, and the tourism page mentions a washer-dryer in some units. The indoor pool and spa matter more in winter, when the days are short and the air is cold, and the on-site restaurant means you do not need to drive for dinner. Breakfast is charged separately.
Who it suits and what to know: Hôtel Baker is a good first choice for most visitors to Gaspé, especially outside summer, since it is open when the Percé hotels are not. It is also the base for winter activities listed nearby, such as cross-country skiing, ice fishing and snowshoeing. One guest review mentioned a short restaurant closure, so ask about dining hours when you book. Rates move with the season, and summer weekends fill early.
