    Lovely small hotel in great location near the old port and restaurants. Parking short distance from hotel. Very pleasant owner who was helpful. Breakfast was traditional French style but at an exceptional price with good coffee.

    What a little gem of a find right in the centre of La Rochelle. The lady who runs it was very welcoming and friendly. Even though it is above very busy restaurants it was very quiet - will definitely be booking again
