Mercure La Rochelle Vieux-Port Sud (closed for renovations) bintang 4

The hotel is superbly located, a stone's throw from the Vieux Port. The car park is an added bonus. A short walk to the centre of town and great bars, restaurants abnd cafés. The view of the port from the breakfastroom is delightful. Our room was beautiful, recently re-done and the showr room was excellent, with stylish fittings. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

The staff was great, especially the head bartender. We celebrated our 25th Anniversary, and he helped make it special. For the hotel, breakfast was adequate and hotel was clean but being by the sea it certainly will be difficult with people with sensitivities to mold. The air conditioner in our room absolutely could not cool the small European style room. Opening the window was a different problem that introduced the noise of drunks wandering about the harbor until 5 AM in the morning. Finally, the billing system for Accor is very confusing. It certainly created some anxiety at check out.

We have stayed a number of times here. Well situated with free on site parking. The rooms and bathrooms are a more compact than most other Mercure hotels but adequate. The once fashionable bathroom is now looking dated and would benefit with updating, the fittings in our room had lost their chromium finish and looked jaded. Breakfast in the panoramic restaurant was the usual wide choice of products. One large retrograde step is the change of coffee machine. The previous one served excellent coffee. The new one serves a warm brown liquid with no discernable taste. AVOID ! Overall a good stay and we will be staying again, despite the new coffee machine, hopefully it will have gone.

We've stayed at this hotel several times before, and love it. The location just next to the harbour is excellent, with so many restaurants and bars to choose from. Our room was spotlessly clean, and well maintained..though we couldn't find any English speaking TV channels. We found a lovely restaurant on the harbour for dinner, where we had a mixed shared starter, moules and frites, and two carafes of wine all for 58 euros. With so much choice locally, we've never actually eaten in the restaurant, neither have we had breakfast there...certainly not at 17 euros each! We both felt completely safe in the hotel environment, glad to see everyone complying with wearing a facemask. Great hotel, and we will be back!

Stayed for 2 nights. The hotel is well organized and one of the high end hotels in La Rochelle. Due to the COVID restrictions, so many aspects of the hotel were not explored. Meals had to be served to the rooms instead of the usual buffet. This also led to a restricted menu. Room service was however efficient. The rooms are not the biggest of rooms but are adequately equipped. Espresso machine and electric kettle to keep oneself warm. Bathroom was a buzz. The staff I interacted with were also pleasant and friendly. Overall, a good stay
