Medical Stay Near the CHU de Québec — Furnished Condos for Caregivers & Families

By Mathieu Villeneuve, owner — I've hosted several families who came from far away for care in Quebec City. My advice: the free indoor parking and the full kitchen change everything when a hospital stay stretches into weeks.

A hospital stay is heavy enough on its own. When you're a caregiver visiting a patient every day, or you've had to leave home and travel to Quebec City for care, the last thing you want to worry about is where to sleep. Le Caïman is two furnished condos in Saint-Roch, set up as a real temporary home: you cook your own meals, do your own laundry, rest between visits — and park the car indoors, heated, for free.

Minutes from the care: Saint-François-d'Assise is in Saint-Roch

The CHU de Québec–Université Laval groups several hospitals across the city. One of them, Hôpital Saint-François-d'Assise, sits in Saint-Roch — the same neighbourhood as Le Caïman, so just minutes away. Hôtel-Dieu de Québec, in Old Quebec, is about a 15-minute walk (Old Quebec itself starts a 15-minute walk from the building). The other CHU sites (Hôpital de l'Enfant-Jésus, the CHUL) remain reachable by car, with your free indoor parking spot as home base.

Note: hospitals are listed as landmarks to help you plan your stay. Always confirm the exact site of your appointment with the CHU de Québec.

Why Le Caïman for a medical stay

• Minutes from Saint-François-d'Assise (in Saint-Roch) and about a 15-minute walk from Hôtel-Dieu — one home base for all your trips to the CHU

• Full kitchen + washer-dryer — home-cooked meals, laundry on site, full autonomy for a long stay

• Calm, fully equipped neighbourhood — pharmacy, grocery stores and restaurants within walking distance, for real rest between visits
