It's about 1.5 Km from the Hilton (and the Delta), which could be walkable if you're OK dragging bags up the hill (Quebec isn't as hilly as San Francisco at its hilliest, but it's uphill to the hotel). If not, taxis are to your left as you walk from the bus toward the bus terminal, and mine was $10 CDN including tip.
