Pretty good - great location
First time to La Rochelle - had to use a public car park but it's just a street away. Off season so a skeleton staff - friendly and good English- but tiny part-time bar and expensive breakfast we didn't try. Had a nice terrace over looking a garden that was a touch... post apocalyptic- but it was quiet and the room we had all we needed. Lovely spacious building and very nicely located.

We had an enjoyable stay in this very authentic La Rochelle Mansion. Staff was very attentive to details. Breakfast could have been a bit more exciting.

The staff at reception were faultlessly kind and helpful. The building has maintained its history in the public rooms. The bedroom was very clean, a comfortable large bed and fully equipped bathroom. The hotel was located quietly away from the busy shopping streets but within a short walk of Place du Verdun, Le Marche and the old port. Would highly recommend for a stay in beautiful La Rochelle

Hôtel very simple
It is not a 4 stars hotel at all more 3 stars. No frigo in the room, no coffee machine only cheap instant coffee, no robe, very cheap an almost dark towel like a motel.
Hotel inside is very nice with a nice garden where you could take a drink. Staff is very nice and help full. Should increase comfort in the room. Very sad a nice hotel like this with so poor amenities.

Convenient but shabby public areas.
Tired public areas, they were short staffed so bar was closed. Rooms nice and newly decorated. You could see the hotel was nice in its day with some classical features. Very convenient location. Claimed ‘parking available’ but very limited space so we parked in the public car park 2mins walk away which was very good; big spaces.
