Auberge internationale du Forillon

Sia chiaro, non è un albergo, non è un B&B, ma come dice l'insegna con l'aragosta, è un Auberge, un ostello.In quanto ostello ha le caratteristiche classiche: no colazione, massima condivisione (non ci sono chiavi nelle camere), lavatrice e asciugatrice, massima allegria.Bel posto! Prezzo buono.

Accueil simple et tables modestes mais cuisine excellente, chef française, un repas de homard inoubliable, très frais tout était excellent!

Le repas dans son ensemble est très bon : soupe, hamburger,salades et surtout homard bien frais et cuit à la perfection. Serveuse très agréable et rapide.À conseiller si on visiter le parc Forillon où les restaurants ne courent pas les rues.

Crème de maïs excellente! burger dit "Angus" infecte (viande surgelée... avec des morceaux soit d'os ou de gras dur)... crème de carotte qui goûte l'eau de vaisselle au cumin, nachos sortis tout droit du sac "sans nom" avec salsa sortie du pot "sans nom"... Gaspésie gourmande ??? quels sont leurs critères??? passez tout droit!!!

We spent 4 dreamy nights in a tipi on the beach under a sunny sky and in a beautiful setting. Despite the 12-14 degrees at night, we were pleasantly surprised to sleep in a tipi completely isolated from humidity and under sheets that smelled fresh and kept us warm! Pure bliss! The tipi has a table outside and a barbecue where we grilled and roasted marshmallows that we bought at the grocery store 100 meters away from the tipi (you can find all the basic necessities for sale there). The facilities are simple, equipped, and clean (cleaned every other day). You really feel disconnected from everything and the staff is top-notch. The rates are very affordable and I highly recommend the packages offered with sea kayaking to see seals and the whale watching cruise – it's simply magical and very well organized with lots of information about the fauna and flora of this beautiful region. We went hiking every day, visited Gaspé 20 km away, and spent a day in Percé on Bonaventure Island, a 1-hour drive away. In conclusion, it's a magical site that stays connected to nature and should be preserved in this way, without too many tourists, which would ruin the charm of this peaceful place that is so in harmony with the elements.
