Bedrooms and berths
Need we remind you of the benefits of transportation that lets you sleep during the journey? Travelling at night, for business or pleasure, can be a sure way to gain time, because you then have full days to prepare, take care of business or enjoy yourself. Travelling long-haul? A good night's sleep will help you make the most of the next day's pleasures.

So that you can sleep well, we provide comfortable bedrooms (or semi-private berths for those on a budget). Please note that availability may vary depending on the region and the types of cars in service.


Bay day your bedroom becomes a snug sitting room with comfortable sitting chairs in bedrooms and inward facing seats on semi-private sleepers.

Bedrooms in our classic stainless steel cars
In our stainless steel sleeping cars, you are spoilt from the moment you board the train. Your porter is always nearby to assist and will take care of bedding and dinner arrangements

You'll sleep in a comfortable, stainless steel car bedroom aboard the Canadian in Silver & Blue class (between Toronto and Vancouver), aboard the Hudson Bay in Sleeper class (between Winnipeg and Churchill) and in Comfort sleeper class on the Chaleur (between Montréal and Gaspé). In Comfort sleeper and Easterly classes on the Ocean (running between Montréal and Halifax), stainless steel cars alternate with Renaissance cars.

Bedrooms aboard the new Renaissance cars (Eastern Canada) are both elegant and functional, Renaissance sleeping cars are a fine example of European design.

You can use one of these bedrooms at all times in Easterly class aboard the Ocean between Montréal and Halifax whenever Renaissance cars are in service.

Comfort and Class!   Berth in Double Bedroom

Double Bedroom
The double bedroom provides an entirely private, onboard haven of peace and quiet. Each bedroom features two armchairs, a small closet, fan, electrical outlet, private washroom, sink and mirror. A small table can even be set up for you upon request. The door locks from the inside and the shower is only a few metres down the hall.

By night, the two armchairs are collapsed by your porter to make way for two comfortable bunks, one upper and one lower.
