Hotel in zona Chiesa di San Salvatore a La Rochelle, La Rochelle

Gorgeous boutique hotel right on Vieux port making it in the heart of the buzz around the port but noise wasn’t an issue at all. Everything was accessible and within a few minutes walk. Bus from the airport stopped right outside the hotel, train station is a 5 minute walk away. Room is v small and a bit cluttered but view from the room made up for it. Didn’t have a balcony (a few rooms have) but we loved looking out our window at the buzz around the port and watching the entertainment. It was spotlessly clean and was cleaned daily. Bathroom was bright and had great lighting, a rare in some hotels where you can barely see without turning all all lights. Minibar including water, coke and iced tea included which was a nice touch. Also got a plate of macarons and a little welcome card which again was lovely. Safe also included free of charge. Beds were very comfortable and plenty of sockets to charge phones etc. Staff were wonderful and so friendly. Didn’t have breakfast as there are so many places to chose from in the city. La Rochelle was amazing and I will hopefully come back and would have no hesitation in staying in La Tour de Nesle again.

Really was a teeny, tiny room and sleeping in a cupboard describes it extremely well, having said that it was ideal for a quick one night stay for 2 adults, don’t think I would like to have stayed any longer as not much storage, but the storage they had was quite effective. The bed was large enough and very comfortable but as someone said, the mattress protector was very cheap quality and made the bed so very hot, also the air conditioning was not that brilliant but it had been in the high 30 at the time of our stay so may have been that the air con could not cope with the heat. We actually slept on top of the duvet, solving the problem of the hot mattress protector and used the bottom sheet as a cover. Ibis really could do with sorting this problem out as it is not ideal. We felt the hotel was in a quiet position, felt safe and we did not have any problems with noisy street noise or noisy neighbours. The shower was very good. Not a lot of street parking but we managed to get in and it felt quite safe to leave the car, worked out at €4 for 2 hours and free between the hours of 12-2 and 6pm - 9am in the morning, free all day Sunday. There is one delivery space that you can pull in at for 10 mins if dropping luggage off and if available, but bare in mind this is a one way street so you can not block it with your car for unloading purposes. The Verdun car park is quite close by, maybe a 5-10 minute walk and apparently only €1 for the day at the weekend. The day we arrived it was torrential rain so we were glad of the street parking. Did not have breakfast as lots of bars and boulangeries nearby. Check in and out was 12pm. The staff were friendly and helpful, they also have luggage storage. One tip, just be careful with travel adaptors, the charging points are sort of upside down behind a kind of light baffle affair and very easy to unplug your devise and leave the adaptor behind….anyone wanting one you will find ours in room 107!

Hotel molto pulito in posizione ideale. Bella staffa alla reception (specialmente i signori). Una valigia mobile per tenere le valigie quando siamo arrivati prima dell'arrivo e lo stesso per dopo l'uscita. C'è Aircon, ma non sono sicuro quanto sarebbe bello in un estate molto caldo.Abbiamo incontrato anche il cane dell'hotel - penso che il suo nome sia bobo.Tornerei.

Sono stato in questo albergo per due notti in occasione di una trasferta di lavoro. La struttura si trova nella zona del vecchio porto vicina alla stazione ferroviaria e all'acquario. All'esterno ha una facciata di una chiesa che rende la costruzione molto gradevole. L'interno è comune a tutti gli hotel della stessa catena sparsi per il mondo. La camera doppia è abbastanza spaziosa, è presente un armadio senza ante per riporre i vestiti, una scrivania con sedia utile per chi viaggia per lavoro, una televisione e un bagno privato con doccia. La colazione è abbondante e offre molte prodotti tipici francesi come madeleine e pain-au-chocolat.

Torniamo a La Rochelle dopo due anni. Così come due anni fa, ci torniamo apposta dall’Italia per festeggiare il mio compleanno. Ultima uscita prima del Covid e speriamo prima nuova uscita dopo la pandemia. Abbiamo scelto questo hotel per la posizione. Sorpresa piacevolissima. Camera standard di buone dimensioni con un arredamento molto curato. Carta da parati al soffitto. Materasso di eccellente qualità. Personale molto gentile. Colazione di ottimo livello. Sicuramente se torneremo, ritorneremo qui!!! TZ

Stayed two nights here and I am sorry it wasn’t longer. This hotel is very well run and all the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. To start with the room was excellent. It was fresh and new with a decent size bathroom. Very comfortable indeed. Breakfast is well organised and there is a large choice of bread and cereal. Thank you for having filter coffee! We enjoyed the restaurant so much we had dinner there both nights too. The pool is a good size - you can actually swim and do lengths - and there are plenty of loungers. Can’t praise this place enough. Check in and check out efficient and friendly as well.

We stayed three nights. The hotel is located in a quiet and green area, and the old town is within walking distance. Good secure and free parking is available. It is a large hotel with restaurant, bar, and a swimming pool. Our room was spacious and nice with a comfy bed, mini fridge, safe, and coffee maker. Also fresh and clean drinking water was available on each floor. The team members at the front desk did a great job, whereas housekeeping was less impressive and the cleaning just ok. Breakfast was included in our stay and was a somewhat mixed experience. Some of the hot items were ok, but the bacon greasy and not well prepared. The coffee was good. A special barbecue evening with live music was arranged one of the evenings. The food was of a very mixed quality, with some of the beef being raw and inedible. We complained about this to the waiter, but were only offered a better knife. Also the accompanying music was ok, but too loud for comfort (unless this was supposed to be the main attraction.) The mediocre performance of the restaurant is the reason for the above rating, which would otherwise be higher.

Very nice hotel, in a quiet area, 10 minutes walking from Vieux port! Near the Gabut area, the Aquarium and the Musee Maritime! You could find free parking in the surrounding streets! Very good value for money also. They have a very nice initiative with housekeeping. If you stay more than two nights, every day you skip the housekeeping you get a free drink per person, such as a draught beer, local wine, tea or coffee at the hotel bar! Also they have a good water dispenser where you can refill your bottles every day with cold water! Their breakfast was quite good, with nice bread, nice crepes and all the basics of a typical french breakfast! The only thing they lacked was some fresh vegetables such as a tomato, a cucumber or a lettuce and fresh fruits. The quality of the coffee could also be improved. Rooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable with two pillows each. The only thing is that the carpet gives the room a dusty smell. Overall very good for its place and price, with friendly staff!

Personnel agréable. Nous avons eu une chambre PMR comme demandé sur Booking en souhait et sans avoir a le preciser a nouveau a l'arrivé. Les chambres sont correctes pour le prix. Petit bémol sur le bruit de la clim mais étant donné que nous étions au RDC avec gros vis a vis il était impossible de laisser de toute façon la fenêtre ouverte donc un + pour la clim mais dommage pour le bruit. Les 2 gros bémols : le bruit de la route et le prix des boissons a l'accueil. Seulement quelques références en stock et surtout consignes en verre donc très chères. Surtout pour deux petites bouteille d'eau 50cl en verre vitel a 3.70 ou 4.70 je ne me souvient plus la bouteille petit format. Dans l'ensemble même si la chambre faisait un peu usee dans l'ensemble, le confort était la. Cela reste un bon rapport qualité prix
