Novotel La Rochelle Centre Hotel 4 stars

We stayed just for one night, and would stay again. The rooms are modern and comfortable. We had a room on an upper floor facing trees in the large park. The setting is peaceful and green, and yet within easy walking distance to the older sections of the city, the train station, and even a public beach. I enjoyed La Rochelle more than I expected to, and this hotel was part of my good experience.

We have stayed before and enjoyed so choose to stay again. Great location close to the park opposite and for walking into town or the port. Good parking outside. Lovely well equipped spacious room. My one issue was the meal. Great service but the menu was not very exciting and the dish I choose was not great.

Room was fine but overlooked the swiming pool and for some strange reason, there were mulitcoloured flashing lights until midnight; it was just as well I do no suffer from epilepsy! I was a bit disappointed with the dinner menu, more a snack than a proper meal but an excellent breakfast more than made up for it.

Nice hotel, unfortunately marred by the ambience. Staff on reception were friendly but other staff markedly not so, and not very helpful. I was very disappointed with this hotel because of the atmosphere. It didn't seem like the staff were very happy or else they were just curt to customers.

The food was not amazing. But it was a good experience.

Great

The hotel was very nicely designed making it an attractive place to hang out. The rooms were comfortable, well-maintained and had everything you needed. The staff were friendly, attentive and always eager to help.

I thought the location of the hotel was very good. Close enough to the town but far enough away for some peace and quiet. Positives were as I say the location, the helpful staff prior to and during the stay and the breakfast offering was adequate. The negatives were the bedroom layout as the bed configuration was not central to the room leaving too little space to one side adjacent to the bathroom. A lack of bathroom amenities. No ceramic cups to enjoy tea and/or coffee in the bedroom. A lack of even basic slippers in the bedroom for guests as the carpeted areas were a little grubby/dirty.

We stayed in La Rochelle as part of a large rugby group, the hotel was excellent in a great location, rooms were very good comfortable and clean. The only that we weren’t happy with was the female breakfast waitress, she was abrupt, rude and very unhelpful, being part of a large group I thought we might of got a more helpful better service off her, she also upset a lot of othe guests having breakfast especially on the Friday morning.

Good location near town centre and harbour with added bonus of a nearby very nice park to walk the dog.

Good reception welcome. Lovely large room and enormous bed. Beautiful bathroom, all immaculate. Good breakfast choice. Good parking and nice walk through park into town. Only slight disappointment was the hotel restaurant was closed ( we did know this as we had rung to check) and we brought some food with us as it appeared all restaurants in the town were closed. However, when we arrived we found that there were snacks available in the bar which would have sufficed if we had known.

Great spacious room, great decor

Very good staff were extremely helpful, breakfast excellent. Room comfortable a bathroom a little tired but clean

Excellent Really good quality room and food. Excellent atmosphere and staff. Also location perfect for city centre.

Very happy with my stay.
