We went to this hotel on a friend’s recommendation and we were not disappointed! A really lovely boutique hotel, right in the heart of old La Rochelle, literally yards from the harbour, it is ideally placed to explore the old streets, buildings, shops, bars and restaurants. The staff were superbly helpful from first check-in to last check-out. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is finished to a very high standard and the rooms, while not huge, had ample space for us and all the amenities we’d need for our stay. The rain showers are super and it’s the best hairdryer ever. Breakfast is a self-serve affair, with the usual range of continental offerings, but with bacon, scrambled eggs and baked beans on offer. You can also boil your own egg, just how you like it. Parking is available, and while it may seem a bit pricey, it is secure and in the centre of this beautiful old city.
