Maison 1896

What a nice hotel! Staff was very friendly (interacted with at least 6 or 7 employees and they all were great and helpful. Room was awesome—we had a Fleury King room that had a huge main room with a king bed and plenty of space for multiple pieces of luggage, a writing desk and a coffee bar. The bathroom was one of the best we’ve had. Enormous room, double sinks, nice rainfall shower (water could be a little hotter) and separate toilet room. Good breakfast and neat little bar with an accommodating bartender. Had to leave for our train at 5:00 am and the night receptionist arranged for two cappuccinos to go in the morning. Nice touch.

Excellent hotel. We were greeted by friendly staff and shown to our rooms by Kevin. Rooms are spacious and well equipped (nespresso machine, hair dryer, conditioner). Lots of room to spread out (room 32) Bartenders spoke great english and were helpful and friendly (especially Ryan). Great gin and tonics ( with a black peppercorn). Breakfast fruit, omelette and croissants were tasty. Great location for restaurants and access to hike in vineyards.

Perfect location to stay for a 3 night visit to Beane. It is more 4.5⭐️ just can’t give it 5 for how expensive it is and expectations for a new boutique hotel in historic building. It’s a little confusing to find with our cell service not working in town & not knowing where to park on arrival but you literally pull your car on the sidewalk in front of Maison door. Valet Mark and all the front desk staff were excellent, kind & welcoming. The room, Fleury King, overlooked Pl. de la Halle. On check in when valet showed us our room we asked about warm room temp were told due to it being Nov the system was off & we were unable to go cooler in the room than I think 22C = 71.6F (maybe 20C?) but we could open the windows. It was cool outside so that was nice option. Only issue is the area outside is somewhat noisy in general and very early morning there was lots of beeping from trucks & Sat morning market set up; so not great sleep over 3 nights with windows open & hit when closed. Room is very quiet with windows closed. They do not do a top sheet, only duvet which was hot (not unusual in Europe) left note for housekeeping in French asking for one which we didn’t get. Pillows are very firm but I’m guessing they had other options if we had asked (I take my own.) Bathroom was beautiful & large. Ours had rain shower & separate soaking tub. Nice brass fixtures. They only leave 2 towel sets/day and there was water leakage from shower & sink so it would be nice to have extra. We had a few items brought to our room for breakfast each morning which was nice; Coke Zero is extra. Checkout seemless! Valet had car at set time & came to get luggage. Small bar is cozy & very nice. Service borders on pretentious. Beautiful hotel, great location & service just a few misses for me. No deal breaker.
