This was an excellent hotel in every way. The location is excellent, the staff was super helpful and friendly, the rooms were well out fitted and extremely clean, and the lobby bar was small but appreciated. Our room looked as if it had been recently redone as did the rest of the hotel. I would stay here again anytime.

Spotlessly clean, very comfy bed breakfast was a bit disappointing as all the supposedly warm things were cold. 1 coffee machine was not really feasible. Wouldn't mark down though as the pastries and juices were lovely. Just a not on the hairdryer in 105, you had to hold the handle together to make it work, safety issues I think.

My second stay at this hotel (Yachtman) and they always outdo themselves. The rooms are fabulous and super clean. Their cleaning ladies are always helpful and respectful of our privacy, accepting to assist but not enter. The establishment is dog friendly and right on the docks- absolutely fantastic

Great location in La Rochelle

Right by the harbour in La Rochelle. Great for trying a range of bars and restaurants. Lovely hotel with great staff who are extremely helpful. Hotel has a lovely pool area, quite unusual for the centre of La Rochelle. Hotel has a section of a nearby car park which is very secure. You'll need to check in at the hotel before accessing the parking, we would have appreciated that information beforehand. Would definitely stay there again when in La Rochelle.

Great location on the harbour. The pool is a welcome relief from the heat. Staff are friendly. The only negative which impacts the scores is the air conditioning in our room was broken which made nights swelteringly hot.

Great location.

A great location to stay in La Rochelle, right on the harbour. A little confusing getting to the hotel through the barrier’s but if you ring the hotel they will lower them for you, there is a height restriction of 1.95 for the secure parking. We stayed in a Discovey Room Poolside and looked over the pool, it was very quiet at night. We felt it lacked in atmosphere but no one stayed in the hotel bar due to the choice in the area. Great choice at breakfast and very helpful staff.
