Très bel hôtel avec beaucoup de charme et très bien situé pour visiter le centre. La dame de l'accueil nous a aidé par téléphone à nous diriger pour arriver à l'hôtel car c'est un peu compliqué. La chambre était très grande. Nous avons beaucoup aimé cet endroit.

Emplacement idéal pour découvrir La Rochelle

Découverte de La Rochelle dans ce bel hôtel. Chambre spacieuse et calme. Hôtel avec beaucoup de style. Personnel aux petits soins. 2 grosses déceptions : la salle de douche minuscule et vieillotte et le petit déjeuner qui peut être amélioré.

Lovely stay. We were only here one night so the location was perfect as we were able to walk to most of the sites and make the most of our short time there. Room was very comfortable and parking was convenient and easy to find with the instructions provided.

mathilde, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel itself was fascinating: a town-centre, music-themed gem. The venerable age of the buildings contrasted pleasantly with the modern decoration. Beware of potentially occasional noise from the street, given the location! The staff were most helpful throughout.

4/10 Fair

Hotel sin ascensor. Habitación muy pequeña. Baño con instalación anticuada e incómoda. Con 2 estrellas sería suficiente. No se ajusta a 3 estrellas. Sólo el precio.
