"Very helpful, friendly, and beautiful staff who pampered me while I was recuperating from a pulled knee ligament. Young Deborah and Pierre especially could come home with me to befriend my two offspring of the same age. The place itself is a gorgeous neo-classical structure of heavy sandstone blocks finished with contemporary fixings that together create a refined yet funky air of nouveau chic. Great value too."

Top Natural History Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Saint Nicolas

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel! Comfortable, quiet room, with air conditioning and a quick lift to the top floor. Delicious breakfast, with loads of choice and helpful accommodation for gluten free and vegan options. Gym basic but grateful for it and the outside seating was calm, shady and relaxing. Right in the centre of everything, sights, shops and restaurants. Special shout out to the incredibly friendly and helpful Neil and Thomas for making our 20th wedding anniversary perfect, including calling restaurants in French for us to confirm reservations, and arranging for our bed to be scattered with rose petals etc. All the other staff were also wonderful. We will return!"

Hôtel Le Bord'O Vieux Port

8/10 Good

"A very well located hotel, handy for the station, and near the harbour and main sights. The room was fine, as was the breakfast. It was a bit noisy though, not from outside but from inside, as the floor outside my 1st floor room was very creaky, so that every time someone walked past (and you had to walk past to go up to the higher floors) you heard it."

Hôtel La Tour de Nesle La Rochelle Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel, tidy and well-appointed in a great location. Only slight problem with the key cards not working but the staff were very helpful."

Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - La Rochelle Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"Air conditioning"

Le Manoir Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Good air con, friendly and helpful staff, excellent continental breakfast with fresh croissants. The hotel has recently been renovated and the decor is fun and a little quirky. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet."

Hotel François 1er Cœur de Ville

10/10 Excellent

"Location. Location. Location. Onsite parking and walkable distance to town led to stress free visit. Hotel has a lovely courtyard for sheltered breakfasts in the heat. Staff were really helpful."

Maison des Ambassadeurs

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay in La Rochelle. The staff were super friendly, really helpful with recommendations and we felt really well looked after. We were also offered a welcome drink which was a wonderful start to our stay. Great location for exploring La Rochelle allowing you to walk everywhere. We were a family of 5 staying at the hotel and we had plenty of space - two rooms with an interlocking door, one being a suite so we didn't feel cramped at all. We didn't want to leave!"

Hôtel Atlantic

10/10 Excellent

"Ideal location to visit La Rochelle, as it's in the heart of the city. Friendly staff and quality place on the whole. Would definitely recommend!"

Hôtel Le Champlain

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel on the whole. Could do with a little TLC in certain areas (our shower had a leak) and the bathroom needed a lick of paint. Bed was super comfortable and air conditioned"
