Fodor's Expert Review Moulin Wakefield Mill Hotel and Spa

Part heritage mill with original features, part modern environmentally friendly building, this waterside hotel and spa on the edge of Gatineau Park has lots of character, wonderful views of the MacLaren Falls, and plenty of pampering on offer. You can take in the views from an outdoor pool, hot tub, and from the hotel terraces. Rooms in the Heritage Mills, once part of the grain silos, are elegant; those in the LEED-registered Eco River Lodge have ultramodern amenities and huge windows overlooking the river. The restaurant, Muse, offers French and Québécois cuisine; you can unwind at the wine bar; or listen to live music on Friday and Saturday evenings in the Heron lounge. In the winter, you can enjoy the snowshoe trails on the grounds.
