If you're planning on driving to La Rochelle I would definitely recommend this hotel. It's reasonably easy to get to and there is a large free car park outside the hotel. The hotel is only a 10 minute walk from the centre and quay where all the shops, bars and restaurants are located. Quite expensive (about £100 per night) but the room was modern and clean. Don't bother with breakfast as there are loads of places within walking distance that are better and cheaper. Also, if using Google Maps to locate this hotel, the hotel position shown on the map is incorrect. It's actually approx 200m west on the other side of the river (but still on Avenue de la Porte Neuve).
