Hotel Novotel La Rochelle Centre 4 estrelas

Great location, 7 min walk into La Rochelle. Stayed in a superior room, super comfy bed, nicely styled and excellent cleanliness. Great breakfast., but you mustn’t be late! Breakfast finishes at 9.30am

I had 2 reservations: 1) 3 people for 2 nights; 2) 2 people for the 3rd night. I got it upgraded to stay at the same room @ the cheaper rate over the marathon weekend. Very spacious & in good condition. An even good surprise is that the entrecote steak served @ lunch was the best steak I had for a week in France.

A really great hotel close to the city centre with its great choice of eateries. The staff were very helpful, friendly and efficient. The room was great, overlooking the gardens, quiet and very clean and a great king size bed. Parking was really easy in a large gated car park. Public areas were very comfortable and the whole hotel was very up together. We would definitely stay at this hotel afgain and recommend it to anyone.

We stayed two nights at the hotel, the room was very comfortable, quiet, and as the hotel is located in a park, there's basically no traffic noise. The parking is off street, not secure behind a gated area but away from the general town area, so not street parking. The rooms are a very good size for France and well appointed. an easy walk into the town and the port. We'll stay again in May on our return to the area.

Really good location within the park, and sufficiently close to central town Staff are not completely friendly, but maybe that's because you forget you are in a Novotel, as the scenery and location is so special Easy parking Rooms

Room still showed signs of renovation, windows were dirty, paint evident on doors and skirtings, pull down sofa bed uncomfortable. Booked in for 3 nights, stayed 1 night and checked out. The outside of the hotel leaves a lot to be desired also and the pool is tiny near a main road and the staff were smoking around it when we got there!

Good location and most places within walking distance. Staff and facilities adequate. Restaurant menu not extensive. Rooms good size with adequate storage. Only gripe was the bathroom. Doors to enter very close to bed making it difficult to access and the bath floor very slippery when having a shower in it. Nearly fell a couple of times. Should have a mat or stipple on floor to prevent this.

Very friendly staff at this newly renovated hotel. As we travel with a dog the location is perfect, close to a beautiful big park. The dinner was also very good. We chosed entrecôte and chickenpad thai.

Located next to a very attractive park . A short walk through the park to both the town centre and harbour. Plenty of free on site parking. Beautifully refurbished foyer, restaurant and bedrooms. Stylish décor and every amenity provided. Helpful staff throughout. Excellent dinner in the restaurant with friendly efficient service.

Parking is useful, it's a good location near a park and not too far from the town centre. We have stayed many times, and will do so again. They are still struggling to provide hot components of the food offering at breakfast.

Well worth staying if using a car and using the hotel as a base for visiting. The hotel is perfectly located to leave the car and walk to all the points of interest in the old port of La Rochelle. The hotel is tired looking as are the rooms and a face lift is needed to justify 4 stars. However, staying out of season and the price was ok. The staff are fantastically friendly and helpful but the service is slow and erratic. Two examples, the first being a 10 minute wait for a beer and lemonade due to no bar staff. The second was sitting in the area the children play in having a beer watching my son play and i had to go up to reception to ask them to clear away broken glass on the floor! We used the pool at the end of May and it was clean and warm. The breakfast is very good.

The Location, the team are just fantastic. It is a pleasure to be in the place. The weather was as well great which make it even better. Enjoyed every single days spent in the Novotel La Rochelle. Thanks to all

This has been the latest in a long series of stops at La Rochelle, one of our favouriite locations on the south western seabord in France. The hotel is clean, the staff frendly, the prices just fine,considering this is France and the location perfect. Right across from a lovely park, it is also within ten minutes walking distance from the old harfbour and the restaurant area. The hotel has a vast parking area, so if you are drfiving there, as we always do, it is an added asset. There is no thoroughfare nearby, so sleep is guaranteed.

The Hotel is really average. From the outside the Building Looks good. Inside all Korridors Need renovation, especially the carpeting is a no go. The interior Needs more Attention. The bar staff is a catastrophie. No interest in the guest.

Overall very good questions answered - only slight fail was that they asked for special requests and I just mentioned it was my wife's birthday but nothing extra done. Facilities in hotel good - bar restaurant etc and parking. Comfortable and good location.
