Arriving in a new town without a hotel reservation or knowledge of where to stay can be intimidating but we were fortunate to find the Jean d'Arc hotel conveniently located in the heart of the Vieux Port. Our room was large with a very comfortable bed and full bathroom. The breakfast was delicious with an excellent assortment of breads, cheese,... More

We decided to go down to La Rochelle for a long weekend and booked this hotel very last minute but what a very pleasant surprise. Location couldnt be better right on the 'Vieux Port', probably best position in town. Next door was 'Andre' , most popular restaurant in town, very, very busy Saturday night and highly over-rated, long waits, very... More

Really good location in the centre of la Rochelle near the harbour, restaurants and shopping streets. Hotel is rather bland but clean and efficient. Rather pricey but to be expected because of its locaton and popular with business people. No parking but nearby St Jean D'Acre car park is about 200 metres away. Had to pull suitcase over cobbles. Free... More

Close to everything, with good view over the harbour, so a bit pricey for the standard but great for a relaxing overnight stay near the relatively sophisticated action... A strange selection of teas in the room but no coffee. Seems to be a policy.

The road to access the hotel is closed from noon to midnight in the summer so if it is closed when you arrive you can call the hotel and they will open it otherwise park in the car park at the Esplanade St Jean D'Acre. When arriving in Rochelle it is easiest to take the RN237 to the west and... More

You park in Esplanade St Jean d'Acre public car prk and walk 50m to the hotel entrance. Helpful staff greet you in English if you require. Rooms are clean and well appointed but this time we treated ourseves to the rooftop suite with sunny terrace. Free wifi, good TV, fridge and kettle all helped. Within easy reach of many restaurants,... More

We stayed in a room overlooking the old port - it was very well insulated from the noise outside and the view was splendid. Although the building is dated, the room was bright and clean. Breakfast was extra but we had it in our room enjoying the view at no extra cost. It has no parking but the local car... More

Small, but clean and quiet room. Not a spectacular view, but we could open the windows for some fresh air. The room was not ready until 3 in the afternoon, the friendly staff took care of our suitcases, though, and had brought them up to our room when we came back. Beautiful sorroundings and lots of nice restaurants just outside... More
