Maison Claire is a little hidden gem if you’re staying in Chester. We were in the ‘Bee’ room and it was delightful - super nights sleep. It’s a 5-10min walk into the city centre with the multi-storey right opposite. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming. We have recommended Maison Claire to everyone 😁

Lukana Thailand

The room met acceptable standards and was quite comfortable. The location was good and easily accessible, in the city centre

Henry Nigeria

I booked the Maison Clare for my son as it was my daughters graduation and he loved the room as soon as he saw it. He asked to stay an extra night and the owners could not have been more accomodating. It was very close to the centre and the combination lock was a great way to access it.

Jane United Kingdom

everything was amazing and the owner was an amazing host.

Cristina United Kingdom

Maison Claire’s location was perfect for where we needed to be whilst in Chester. The room was lovely and the host was super friendly and helpful. Next time we stay in Chester we will definitely be coming back to Maison Claire.

Alison United Kingdom

The beds were really comfortable, and the location was only a few seconds walk from the city centre! Great for a quick overnight stay in the area.
