We stayed for one night at this property. Great location with free parking close by. A good base for exploring La Rochelle. Would stay again but mattress not very comfortable and first hotel I have ever stayed in where they ask you to take your rubbish out yourself. It served a purpose and the bottles of water and sweets were a nice touch.

Well positioned for sights of La Rochelle
Had researched and knew there was free car park next door to hotel. Reception reasonably efficient without being friendly. NB - it only opens after 9am so beware if you have an early check out requirement. They give you a code to get in outside reception hours. There is a small indoor swimming pool but we didnt use. Only a 10 min walk to the harbour/chain bridge/Oceanarium. Room perfectly ok with kettle etc

Fabulous but...
We loved the apart-hotel the only thing was, by the time we had a shower we had no hot water. We had done washing up etc, it says there is one hot water tank for the room, it must be tiny and certainly not enough for 3/4 people. We couldn't even have one.

Best value we've found in La Rochelle.
Excellent value in an expensive town. The studio had everything we needed - a well-equipped little kitchen, good-sized bathroom with excellent shower, etc. Big comfortable bed. First-class breakfast. Even an indoor swimming pool, which we had all to ourselves. A 15-20 minute gentle level stroll into the old port - when you get to the end of the road you can walk along the waterside, so it's a pleasant journey. We found free parking in the street just opposite the door.

Limited access to Wifi! Only 3h of Wifi and a hassle with register to some account. The sofa bed was very uncomfortable, creaking with every little move. The pool was not clean, found a lot of hair in there. Quite good location.

Ideal self-catering accommodation
Fantastic location, within walking distance to the quayside, where you can catch a small ferry to take you across the water to the restaurants and bars of the harbour. A quiet residential area, with a safe feel about it. The Résidence Lagrange Vacances L'Escale Marine offers a wonderful, typically French breakfast, with everything you would expect. The room was well equipped with a kitchenette with facilities to cook, as well as fridge, microwave and kettle. We would return without hesitation.

Great location
The Hotel is well located and within easy walking distance of the old port area, restaurants and shopping centre, Parking problematic unless you use the Hotel underground parking at a cost of 9 Euros per night. Whilst the apartment does have a small kitchen, it is minimal and poorly equipped. It is surprising that this recently built hotel does not have air conditiong. It was 30 degrees when we were there in mid September.

This property is great if you want to be spending most of your time out and about. It is very clean and the staff are helpful. The pool is a nice addition and very warm! Only issue we had was the comfort of the beds.

La Rochelle appart hotel.
Great location in a fantastic town, but the accommodation itself is very cramped and having no fan or air conditioning is very hot in summer! Ok for a couple of nights but you would need somewhere better for a longer stay!

No WiFi after 10pm very very poor WiFi. Luck.
The we in the first rm was continuously filling so we changed rooms, only to find the shower tray blocked in the second room. The wi if was poor and they did not warn anyone that it’s switched off after 10pm so when you get back to your hotel no internet. The rooms were clean. The bed was comfortable, I like a hard mattress. We were very near to everything plus there is a well stocked supermarket round the corner. No noise at night. But during the day or anytime you opened your windows you could smell the smokers from the green areas below.

Lovely Place
Very good accommodation not far at all from the city centre. Room was clean and tidy, bed comfortable. Everything one could need. Pool is small and partially covered but nevertheless refreshing. Only down side was that I overheard 2 girls complaining about the extra bed in the 3 person rooms. Apparently it was very uncomfortable.

Only drawback was the hotel staff not really happy or give us a smile. Especially a man was in the office not even making effort to come out to answer us query. Other than this, it is a great place to stay as easy to get to town and supermarket.

Looks better in the pictures than in real life!
The room was extremely hot and there was no air conditioning available in the room. The best they could do was give me a portable fan to use in the room. Given the area, being generally hot in summer, you would think that aircon would be standard. The Wifi was also extremely poor. Would constantly cut out and when it did work was so slow. Two of the lights in the room didn't work meaning that we only had our bedside lights!

Tiny shower.
Everything was fine except the shower, a big bathroom BUT I have never seen such a tiny shower, you could not move without either opening the door or hitting the tap and turning it off or scalding yourself, not kidding.

3 night break
Booked a studio apartment for 3 night break. Location is about 10 minute walk into main town which was an easy walk through the harbour. Apartment itself is small but had most things that we needed - would benefit from a hairdryer and a toaster. overall a nice apartment that was very good value for money.
