Auberge Le Baril Roulant

Top choice in The Laurentians


This wonderful inn and hostel on the river north of town is a welcome arrival in Val-David. There's a dorm with solid wooden bunk beds sleeping 14 people in 10 singles and two doubles, six rooms with bathroom named after winds (think Sirocco and Mistral) and a suite with a Jacuzzi.

There's a great kitchen and restaurant-pub (mains $9 to $20) open from noon to 10pm with dozens of craft beers on tap. Don’t miss what they call 'the most zen terrace in the village' overlooking the Rivière du Nord.
