Agree with fellow reviewer sonofdrake: strongest point of this hotel is location. It's in the city center, old town, old port. Many sites, shops and restaurants nearby.
The staff is uniformly welcoming and helpful. Special commendation for the housekeeping staff. Linens, bedding, and bathroom all impeccable.
Suitable for business or pleasure. I'd recommend it for couples, families, business travelers. Design is modern, described by reviewer Lboro as "austere"; I'd call it "calm".
By French standards, elevator is large and efficient; hallways are well-lit. Think there are handicapped-accessible rooms; the hotel clearly has made efforts to accommodate guests who have limited mobility or eyesight.
WiFi is free and works well. Hotel has a bar and a nice breakfast buffet. Traveling on business, I appreciated being able to have an after-work drink and to have breakfast early (service starts 6:30 am on weekdays).
In walking distance from the train station. There's private parking for guests. I didn't use it but point it out to guests coming by car, because parking is difficult in old town La Rochelle.
