Havre-Saint-Pierre hotels, motels, inns and camping near the Mingan Archipelago. See verified addresses, phones and what to confirm before you book.
Sammie O
Havre-Saint-Pierre hotels are few, and the town sits at the end of a long road on the Quebec North Shore. Most visitors come for the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve and its limestone monoliths. This guide covers every hotel, motel, inn, guest house and campground we could confirm, and flags each gap. We do not quote rates because they change by season. Call the property before you book.

Hotels in Havre-Saint-Pierre
The town has two larger hotels. Both are confirmed by more than one source. Each has its own street address, so choose by the services you want.
Hôtel-Motel du Havre
This is the best-documented option in town. The address is 970 boulevard de l’Escale, Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC G0G 1P0. Call 418-538-2800 or toll-free 1-888-797-2800. The Quebec tourism listing says the property stays open year round.
Tourism listings count about 70 units. The Côte-Nord tourism board lists a restaurant on site, free Wi-Fi, free parking, breakfast service and a private bathroom with a tub in each room. The Quebec tourism listing adds a banquet and meeting room and small refrigerators in the units. We found no check-in or check-out times, so ask when you call.
Complexe MV
Complexe MV stands at 1411 rue du Canot, Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC G0G 1P0. Quebec tourism records list about 98 units, a restaurant, breakfast, meeting rooms and free parking. Pets are allowed for a fee.
A booking site lists check-in from 3:00 PM and check-out at noon. The same site lists a front desk open from 8 AM to 11 PM, with limited staffing. The listing also notes no elevator and no cribs. We found no phone number on the pages we read. Confirm current operations with the property before you travel, because the newest guest review we saw dates from late 2024.
Motels in Havre-Saint-Pierre
Several small motels line boulevard de l’Escale, the main road through town. Details are thinner here, so treat each listing as a starting point and phone first.
Motel de l’Archipel
The motel stands at 805 boulevard de l’Escale. Call 1-800-463-3906. A Quebec vacation listing mentions a hot tub, a telephone and a television. A travel wiki lists 22 rooms and two business suites. We could not confirm the season or the check-in times.
Motel du Vieux Town Side
This motel sits at 873 boulevard de l’Escale. The Côte-Nord tourism board says the motel stays open all year. Each unit has cable television and high-speed wireless Internet, and guests can use a laundry room. The board lists nine or eleven units, and some units have kitchenettes. The two numbers disagree, so ask how many rooms have a kitchen before you book. Phone records also differ slightly, so check the number on the tourism board page.
Other motels we could not confirm
A travel wiki also names Motel Le Relais at 799 boulevard de l’Escale and Motel Marie-Jess at 1190 boulevard de l’Escale. We found a single source for each. We cannot say whether either one takes guests today. Skip both unless you reach the owner by phone.
Inns, Guest Houses and B and B Stays
Havre-Saint-Pierre has a good set of small inns and gîtes, which are Quebec guest houses. Many list breakfast and a quiet setting.
Auberge Niapiskau
Auberge Niapiskau is a small inn on rue Boréale. Quebec listings mention free parking, Internet, a lounge, a shared kitchen and laundry. The records disagree on details. One lists 1126 rue Boréale, and a travel wiki lists 1035 rue Boréale. One tourism page lists only three rooms and a seasonal opening from mid May to late October. Another source lists twelve rooms and five shared bathrooms. Treat this as unconfirmed and phone before you plan around the inn.
Auberge Boréale
Auberge Boréale is at 1288 rue Boréale. Call 418-538-3912. A Quebec vacation listing mentions a washer and dryer, a shared lounge and a television. The inn has its own website at aubergeboreale.com. We found no room count, season or check-in times.
Au Gîte chez Françoise
This guest house stands at 1122 rue Boréale. Call 418-538-3778 or toll-free 1-855-219-3778. The Côte-Nord tourism board lists two units, each with a private bathroom, a small kitchenette and wireless Internet. The board also lists gourmet breakfasts, garage parking for bicycles and motorcycles, two bicycles to borrow, and a spot close to a sandy beach. The board says the house stays open all year.
A travel wiki gives check-in at 2:00 PM and check-out at noon. Only one source gives those times, so confirm them.
Gîte 4 Saisons
The address is 1264 rue Boréale. Call 418-538-1329. Two sources list private bathrooms, free Wi-Fi and a free breakfast. One source lists five rooms. The property is non-smoking and has no pets allowed according to the wiki. We found no season dates.
Gîte Dupuis
Gîte Dupuis stands on rue du Duvet. Call 418-538-2082. The Côte-Nord tourism board lists three units and year round opening. The board describes a quiet inn close to the sea. Amenities and times are not listed.
Gîte de l’Anse
A travel wiki lists Gîte de l’Anse at 1704 rue de l’Anse. Call 418-538-1602. The wiki lists four rooms, Wi-Fi, a continental breakfast and direct beach access with views of the Mingan Islands. We found a single source, so we mark this stay as unconfirmed. Call to check whether the gîte takes guests.
Camping and Island Stays Near the Mingan Archipelago
Campers have a municipal campground at 1730 rue Boréale, according to a travel wiki. The wiki lists seaside sites, a sanitary block, a dump station and a launderette. Phone 418-538-2415 in season or 418-538-2717 off season. This is a single source, so confirm dates before you drive up.
Parks Canada runs its own stays inside the park reserve. The oTENTik is a cross between a tent and an A-frame cabin on a raised floor. Each unit has beds, a table and chairs, and a propane barbecue. Guests bring sleeping bags, food and drinking water. The Parks Canada page lists one oTENTik location, Île Quarry, and says boat transport is the only way to reach the island. The operating season runs June 1 to September 30.
The Ôasis units are teardrop-shaped duplexes on Île du Havre or La Grande Île. Six sites are listed, and the season runs from May 31 to September 30. Reserve through the Parks Canada Reservation Service at 1-877-737-3783. For oTENTik stays, check-in is after 3 PM and check-out is before 11 AM. Register at the Havre-Saint-Pierre information centre at least one hour before your boat leaves.
Where to Stay Near the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve
Parks Canada places the Reception and Interpretation Centre at 1010 promenade des Anciens in Havre-Saint-Pierre. The park reserve protects about twenty main islands and islets, plus more than 1,000 Precambrian islands and islets along the Minganie coast. Parks Canada says the archipelago holds the largest concentration of monoliths in Canada.
You cannot reach the islands without a boat. Parks Canada says to book with a marine transport company Parks Canada recognizes, based in Havre-Saint-Pierre or Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan. Most operators run from June to September, and schedules can shift at the start and end of the season. Plan a room in town for the night before your boat.
A travel wiki also lists the lighthouse keeper’s house on Île aux Perroquets as a heritage stay. We found a single source, so ask Parks Canada before you plan around this stay. The wiki lists other lodging in Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan, Mingan, Baie-Johan-Beetz and Aguanish, which may help if town stays fill up.
How to Choose Among Hotels in Havre-Saint-Pierre
Pick a hotel when you want a restaurant, meeting space or a large front desk. Pick a motel when you want a simple room on the main road. Pick a gîte when you want a home breakfast and a quiet street.
Book early for summer. Boat season runs from June to September, and town lodging is limited. Ask three things on the phone. Is the property open on your dates? What are the check-in and check-out times? Does the room have a private bathroom?
Winter stays work too. Hôtel-Motel du Havre, Motel du Vieux Town Side, Au Gîte chez Françoise and Gîte Dupuis all list year round opening. The park islands close after September.
Getting to Havre-Saint-Pierre
Route 138 is the only road. Parks Canada gives about 870 km from Quebec City to Havre-Saint-Pierre. Montreal is about 15 hours away by road, according to a travel wiki. Plan fuel and rest stops on the North Shore.
Intercar buses run from Quebec City via Sept-Îles. Flights go to Sept-Îles, and Parks Canada says you then drive about 200 km. Air Liaison also flies to Havre-Saint-Pierre. The Relais Nordik ship links Rimouski, Sept-Îles and Havre-Saint-Pierre.
What We Checked and What Is Still Unconfirmed
We read Quebec tourism listings, the Côte-Nord tourism board, Parks Canada pages, booking sites and a travel wiki. We kept only properties with at least one tourism or official listing, and we flagged weaker ones.
We left out Gîte Niapiskau as a separate stay. Booking sites list the name, but we could not match the name to a current tourism listing. We kept the municipal campground, but only one source backs the listing.
We stated no rates. We found no check-in times for most properties. We could not verify the current state of several motels. In a town this size, a short phone call settles most doubts.
