This is an old hotel but in a magnficent position overlooking the harbour. The shower, toilet etc is a bit of a joke. Don't even think about having breakfast here, as it was possibly the worst we had in our extended stay in France. Fortunately they do offer car parking provided you book in advance, this is situated in a... More

Having thoroughly enjoyed La Rochelle in june, i decided to return for 5 nights in August. This time i chose a reasonably priced hotel in the centre of town. The location was excellent; close to the harbour, shops + restaurants. I booked a twin room with a nice view of the church across the road. Unfortunately the room was tiny... More

Right across the little bridge in front of hotel are the best mussels in town (and almost next door all the English papers). Staff friendly. Rooms small but clean with wifi etc. Great cheap, rocking student bar around the corner to the right. Harbor entrance right in front.

This centrally located hotel has a wonderful view of the harbour. The complimentary breakfast is a bonus. The hotel room missing basics like plug for bath, hair dryer, and air conditioning. Very limited and rough towels. General state of room is old and outdated. Rooms could soundproofing as it is very noisy - which makes it challenging to put children... More

The Pros - location, location, location. The hotel is across the road from all the cafes and restaurants and right beside the old Port. You couldn't get more central. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was spotless, with fresh towels each day. It's very good value for money. The Cons - the rooms have no air conditioning... More

We stayed here for one night and were really impressed. You get what you pay for: the rooms are small and basic but very clean. We had a lovely view over the harbour. The only disadvantage of this was that it was noisy at night, but still ok. The staff were friendly and the location is very central and easy... More

The hotel is situated smack in the middle of the old port of La Rochelle. Try to get a room with a balcony, if lucky, you will have a breathtaking view of the old port that comes to life in a big way every evening, people swarm along the promenade and look at the street artists and you can sit...

The reception welcome was very friendly and very helpful. The staff were all very friendly and pleasant. The hotel location was perfect - right next to the main harbour - The road is closed off in the evenings for pedestrians and street entertainment. Parking was difficult at times, especialy on weekend evenings in peak season. Make sure you reserve one... More

PLUS: If you get a room in the front side, possibly on the highest floor (4°) you'll have the best possible view of the GORGEOUS "vieux port". Such view worths itself the room's price (€ 110 for the room/night). The staff is kind. MINUS: As you'll read in other comments, the bathroom is actually very narrow, but my fiancee and... More
