Where you stay in Chartres will depend on so many factors.
I love the Maison St. Yves, but I'm monastic by nature.
In 2006 we stayed at MaisonJLN (B & B) and really enjoyed it.

Here are some options for your consideration and prayer.

Wouldn't it be great if we could all just stay in the cathedral overnight like the pilgrims of old…

Imagine waking up under the eaves with Mary, Jesus and Joseph blessing you from a stained-glass window above... We loved the warm hospitality and spiritual environment. Natalie is an artist (painter) trained at the École de Louvre and Jean-Loup has a passion for walking, especially between Chartres and Vezelay. They are active members of the cathedral parish and love welcoming pilgrims on the Chemin St. Jacques to Compostela.
