Stayed here for ten days at the beginning of August. Very good location within walking distance of the town and the Vieux Port.
Excellent carpark with plenty of spaces. Good breakfast but expensive. Nice bedrooms with tea and coffee making, although a little cramped with two older children. Food in the restaurant very good although cheaper alternatives available in the town.

Although part of a large chain, this Novotel is very good. Great location in La Rochelle - away from traffic, but only 10 min walk into the town, very quiet, large car park (v. imp. in La Roc), staff very efficient, friendly and helpful. Rooms are very spacious and clean, good bathroom with separate wc. Would definitely say best hotel in town having seen others. Only downside is that the area around the pool is quite cramped.

3 star (infact I would say 3 plus) hotel with good facilities, with only a short walk to the centre of La Rochelle; rooms clean, helpful staff.

Also has parking which after a short time you soon realise is at a real premium in La Rochelle.

Good location (ask for rooms facing the park), nice decoration, good brekfast and efficient staff. This is a very predictible, typical Novotel recently renovated 10 min. walk from the city centre. Probably the best option in La Rochelle.
