Hotels with Restaurants in La Rochelle

We stayed for 5 nights in a 2 room suite which provided a seperate bedroom and a sitting room with 2 single beds. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was quite modern. The hotel lobby is great. It is furnished with comfortable sofas and chairs, there's a large central bar, and because of the chilly weather in mid October there was a wonderful wood fire buring most of the time. The hotel has a small heated pool which got lots of use from several families, and a sauna and spa. We didn't avail ourselves of the 25 euro breakfast as we prefered a coffee and croissant and there are lots of bar/coffee shops nearby. The hotel is an easy walk down to the harbour where there are more restaurants and bars than you can count.

I was at first disappointed, because I reserved a harbor-front view room, but when I checked in, it was not available. However, the thoroughly apologetic desk staff provided a consolation room, which had a good view of a jumbled terrain of ancient, brick-tile roofs with a church steeple behind. It also had a private balcony which was large enough to accommodate a small table and 2 chairs. We also were complemented their breakfast, which was huge in its variety of breads, rolls, salads, cheeses, eggs, meats and fruits. The room was large enough for a comfortable queen bed, tables, a desk and a couple of chairs. Although the outside of the building was, I am guessing, at least a few centuries old, the inside was completely remodeled with all modern conveniences (lots of plugs!) So, lots of charm with modern comforts. It was right in the middle of the ancient harbor. Steps away from museums, shops, restaurants and the ferris wheel! It was a very nice hotel. I would stay there again.
