Top La Rochelle Hotel Reviews

Hotel François 1er Cœur de Ville

Hotel François 1er Cœur de Ville

8/10 Good
"The room was large and the bed comfortable. Good size bathroom. A fan was provided as no air-conditioning. The only downside was the window did not open and had a closed shutter on the outside. Not too much of a problem as only slept there but initially it felt a little claustrophobic. Great location. Would stay there again but only in a room with a window you could see out of and opened."
