Saint-Michel-des-Saints is located just one hour away from Montreal. But the difference could not be more stark. This small municipality is the complete opposite of a large city, and when you arrive you’ll find yourself surrounded by nature. Indeed, one of the most popular activities for people staying in a cheap hotel in Saint-Michel-des-Saints is getting on a snow-mobile and exploring the surrounding area. Although small with just over 2,500 inhabitants, the town welcomes in many visitors each year.
Founded in 1863 by Father Leander Brassard, the town is now a very popular place to stay for tourists heading to Quebec. Its main natural feature is Lake Taureau, and you should be able to find a budget hotel in Saint-Michel-des-Saints with a view over the lake. Canoeing is a popular activity for tourists here, and you could even go on a bear-watching expedition to find out more about the wildlife of the region.
