Bonne situation, et personnel attentionné
Pros:

L’emplacement de cet hôtel est idéal pour les courts séjours. Le personnel de jour et de nuit est prévenant. Cependant, il semble préférable de réserver directement auprès de l’hôtel et non via la plateforme ‘hôtels’ qui ne met pas à jour les disponibilités. Le personnel en sera davantage gratifié, vous aurez plus de chances d’être logés dans la partie la plus récente de l’établissement, et vos souhaits initiaux seront alors honorés sans mauvaise surprise, notamment si vous sélectionnez les chambres twin qui y sont rares.

Pros:

I recently stayed in this hotel for four nights. The location is superb, I arrived by train, as it is less than five minutes walk from station, and less than five minutes walk to the town which is full of great bars and restaurants and many interesting buildings to look at. The staff are very friendly, mostly English speaking. The room was very comfortable, and my balcony view was some trees. The optional breakfast was very good value. The bathroom was clean and practical. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting La Rochelle.

Smale senger og ingen aircondition!
Pros:

Hotellet lå sentralt, men usedvanlig dårlig standard og slitent hotell. Ingen aircondition og svært smale senger.

Pros:

Hotel was in a perfect location for central La Rochelle. Room was suitable for what we needed. Hotel front and rooms were dated and in need of some TLC although good value for money and just a base so no issues.
