Maison Claire

Definitely not boutique, rooms are too small for the beds in there. We were not allowed to use the lounge as they were locked. Although there is a fridge in the room, it's that small you can't put anything in it. Breakfast is not included in the stay, you can have breakfast at an extra cost but have to eat in your room Although there is nowhere to sit and eat it apart from your bed

We recently stayed here for an overnight visit to Chester and booked a triple room for £135. Unfortunately, it didn’t meet our expectations. The room was far too small for three beds, making it difficult to move around comfortably. The bathroom was also poorly designed—the door couldn’t fully open due to the layout, and the shower was so tiny that my partner, who is over 6ft, couldn’t fit inside properly. Our two friends had separate rooms, which were even smaller, with barely any space to store luggage or move around. There was no proper storage, making it feel very cramped. The room had a small desktop-sized fridge, which was practically useless as it couldn’t fit much inside. The tea, coffee, and sugar provided looked like they had been sitting there for ages—our room only had brown sugar, and our friends’ room didn’t even have any coffee. Breakfast was not included in the price and had to be paid for separately. Given the cost of the stay, we expected more. In hindsight, for the same price, we could have booked a larger, more comfortable hotel with breakfast included. The overall experience was disappointing. While I appreciate independent hotels, B&Bs and AirB&Bs, this one felt overpriced for what it offered. I’ve stayed in a few other independent hotels in Chester, and unfortunately, this is one I won’t be returning to.

Lovely little boarding house and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Definitely stay there again

Great location, comfy bed Stayed in the small room with the garden view which was very small, comfy bed. Bathroom had a few issues, shower not very warm and water appeared on the floor from somewhere. Shower door doesn't close and the sink plug was permanently down. Could do with some repairs / tlc.
