I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, modern, and incredibly comfortable, just as I expected. The lack of a bar fridge didn't bother me at all, especially with the super comfy bed. The location was perfect in the calm but lively area of St Nicholas, just a short walk to the harbour and old town. The staff, especially Damian, went above and beyond to make our stay special, even driving us to the airport when our taxi didn't show. The dining experience was delightful, with a variety of delicious options, though the noisy atmosphere was a slight drawback. Overall, a superb hotel with excellent service and amenities.

I must say, this hotel surprised me. The rooms, while small and modest, were sparkling clean, and the service was top-notch. However, the location had its ups and downs, being in a quiet area yet a bit noisy. The dining experience had its quirks, but overall not too shabby.

The location was a bit of a mixed bag; it was great being near the old center, the station, and the old port, but the area was somewhat noisy despite being in a quiet spot. Having parking onsite was convenient though.

Staying at this hotel felt like being in a hostel but without the safety deposit box. The rooms were a bit small, especially when compared to Le Yachtman down the road at a similar price. My room was small, under the roof with a small window, and required a walk up one floor as the elevator didn't reach that level.

The service could use some customer service training, but the staff was very friendly and helpful despite challenges in recruitment. Unfortunately, they were unable to refund onto our credit card.

The location was perfect, slightly off the beaten track yet within easy reach of the marina area. Ideal for exploring La Rochelle, with the old quarter, towers, harbor, and bus station all within walking distance.

Dining

The dining experience was a little noisy with continuous coffee/juice machines and people moving suitcases through. However, there was a lovely bakers around the corner for a quieter coffee and pastry.
