The hotel Château Frontenac in Quebec City was named after Louis de Buade, Count of Frontenac, who was governor of the colony of New France from 1672 to 1682 and 1689 to 1698.

The hotel is located in the Quebec City Old Town which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only city in North America with its original city walls. Canada’s railway hotels are a series of grand hotels across the country. The hotels were originally built by the Canadian railway companies to serve the railway passengers. Many of them were designed in the "château style", which as a result became known as a distinctly Canadian form of architecture. The use of towers and turrets, and other Scottish baronial and French château architectural elements, became a signature style of Canada’s majestic hotels. The hotels are so outstanding that each of them has become a local and national landmark, and most of which are icons of Canadian history and architecture. One of the finest hotels in Canada, hotel Château Frontenac in Quebec City was opened in 1893. It was designed by American architect Bruce Price; the newer portions of the hotel, including the central tower (1924), were designed by Canadian architect William Sutherland Maxwell. The Quebec Conference of 1943, at which Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and William Lyon Mackenzie King discussed strategy for World War II, was held at the Château Frontenac while much of the staff stayed nearby at the Citadel.
