What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors have mixed feelings about Trois-Rivières, with some praising its pleasant weather and charm, while others express disappointment with parking challenges, perceived social ideologies, and unreliable taxi services on weekends. The cleanliness of areas around City Hall has also been noted as a concern by some.
"Very disappointed with this city. There were four of us in a Canam Spyder, and to our great surprise, we were faced with a city that was anti-motorcycle. It was impossible to park anywhere. I assume the merchants are doing a roaring trade to deprive themselves of this clientele, which numbers in the thousands. In the end, we left without spending a single dollar. Other cities could benefit from this."
Sylvain Boucher
"A city sinking into the woke regime! Trois-Rivières was once a beautiful city, but unfortunately, wokism has taken hold!"

"Saturday, May 2nd, I was taking my girlfriend to Trois-Rivières for our 2nd anniversary. We were staying at the Laviolette Suite and had planned to go to the games room. After our slightly boozy dinner, we tried calling a taxi, then another, and another. And again and again, and again, and again, asking the hotel receptionist without success. 🤬🤬🤬
So, the weekend wasted because of a city that doesn't even have a taxi on a Saturday night at 7 p.m.
I come from a city of 8,000 inhabitants, and I have a taxi that comes to pick me up no matter the time, so next time I'll go to a functional city."
