Warmth and Romance at the Chez Marie-Claire

While visiting Old Quebec City on Christmas, Rebecca and I were fortunate enough to stay at the most charming bed & breakfast in all of Canada. After sharing photographs of our stay, I am sure you would enjoy booking a stay at this wonderful home as well.

For anyone curious, “chez” in French translates to at someone’s home or business. During my recent visit to Chez Marie-Claire, I didn’t meet anyone named Claire, but I did encounter two incredibly hospitable Bed & Breakfast hosts.

The proprietors, Dorian and Marie

Dorian and Marie are the lovely couple that manage the Chez Marie-Claire. The moment you arrive at  this quaint Bed & Breakfast, these two will be standing there to greet you, help with bags, and let you know you’ve found that special home away from home. While Dorian and Marie speak mostly French, their English skills are rather impressive considering the two have only been studying the language for a few short months. The Chez Marie-Claire’s structure was built in the year 1885 and is located right in the heart of Old Quebec. Its ideal locale is within easy walking distance to the Chateau Frontenac and other great attractions.
