"Top notch hotel! I will stay here again. The hotel staff were helpful, friendly and gracious. I booked the hotel last minute and my room was ready instantly, the bed larger than I expected and the two windows had nice views! The mattress, bedding and pillows were comfortable and very plush. The property is as close to the water as you can get with lovely shops and restaurants all around. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and welcome.

"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

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!"

Le Manoir Hotel, BW Signature Collection

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"

Hôtel Le Bord'O Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff. Great location. Excellent air conditioning. Well maintained property. They could improve by putting a fridge in the rooms."

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."

Les Gens De Mer La Rochelle

10/10 Excellent

"Decent place to get a goods night’s kip. Only thing is the provided fan was very noisy."
