The parking was the only difficulty - finding the actual car park, and organising the parking permit. Better info should have been sent via Hotels,com.
Staff at the hotel were extremely helpful, and dealt with all other issues effectively.

The Parking available? Definitely NOT ! Impossible to approach the hotel by car because of the one-way streets all around the hotel. Prepare to find a parking first and then carry all your luggage to the hotel. The staff wasn’t very helpful to find a solution. After a long and stressful trip, to be confronted with a guy at the desk who didn’t seem to know a solution to my problem or didn’t want to help, was very upsetting. The shower was not well made, so the water ran to the bathroom floor instead of in the drain. The cover of the toilet seat was broken and remained broken during our 3 days stay. 3 stars.

La Fabrique is well situated in La Rochelle with many dining and sightseeing options a stones throw away, and walkable to the Encan conference facility. The staff was enthusiastic and helpful. Our only issue was a leaky AC unit that dripped constantly and which was apparently not fixable by the staff. A reasonable price for the great location.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel, and the experience was made exceptional thanks to the outstanding service provided by the staff. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed and well taken care of.

Special mention goes to Barbara at the reception desk. She was incredibly helpful during our check-in, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Barbara went above and beyond, providing excellent recommendations for sightseeing and helping us find all the information we needed to make the most of our visit. Her friendly and professional demeanor truly set the tone for our stay.

In addition to Barbara's fantastic service, Yuri and Anton at the bar also deserve high praise. They were both incredibly welcoming and provided top-notch service throughout our time at the hotel. Their warm hospitality and attentiveness made our evenings at the bar a delightful experience.

Overall, the staff at this hotel made our stay memorable with their exceptional service and genuine hospitality. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely stay

The location of the hotel was excellent, the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. The only downside was when using the card for the parking we had to go back to the hotel to hand it back after we had left. Maybe the option of a drop-off box at the parking location would be a better idea. But other than that minor issue the hotel cleanliness, location, was brilliant.

We had an extremely small room, could barely walk around the bed, had a small window close to the floor, the room was on the 1st floor only reachable with staircase. The toilets were not working and located less than a meter from the bed with a poor sliding door (zero intimacy). The staff was very unfriendly, not even trying to look for a solution. We saw the staff being absolutely awful with other guests, charging them 5€ per baggage to be stored in the baggage room (even small kid backpacks), in cash only, obviously not willing to give receipts. This hotel is far from being legal in so many aspects!

Be Forewarned: A Mixed Bag

So, I don’t like to complain, but this hotel is a real mixed bag.

First, the hotel is very well-situated between the train station and the old port, it’s very modern and tries hard to be chic. The design is interesting, but the open common area around which all the rooms are oriented is not as pictured. It’s now a dining area for breakfast service. That said, the design concept is an interesting touch.

Secondly — and crucially — if you’re unlucky enough to be placed in one of the rooms on the 1st floor (2nd floor for Americans), you very well will have an open bathroom. “What’s that?” you ask. It means that there is no door to your bathroom. It’s situated behind a wall between the bathroom and the bedroom, but in terms of privacy, that doesn’t do much. I mean, traveling as a couple who’s been married for 13 years, it’s not a big deal, but if this is a romantic getaway — maybe your first trip together — be forewarned. You will probably be defecating in the same room you’re sleeping in. There. I said it. Forewarned is forearmed.

Lastly, the hotel advertises itself as having soundproof rooms. This is simply untrue. Noise is a problem, not from the interior of the hotel, but from the outside. Sound insulation was NOT a real investment by the designers.

So: very friendly and helpful staff and an interesting design concept, but no real soundproofing and an epic bedroom/bathroom design make La Fabrique the hotel I will NOT go back to during my next trip to La Rochelle.

La Fabrique - super hotel

Really unusual hotel. Old on the outside but very modern inside. Comfortable beds, spotlessly clean rooms. I had a disabled room and it had plenty of space for our bags and wheelchair. The shower had a good, solid put down stool so I could sit with comfort whilst showering. One odd thing was the tap on the wash hand basin, to get hot water you had to push it to the right and then hot water came out with great force! Difficult to adjust, for me anyway.
Nice bar downstairs and very nice staff all went out of their way to be helpful. An unbeatable situation right in the centre of the old port area. Breakfast looked good, both hot and cold but all we wanted was a short walk to get a croissant and coffee. We stayed two nights but didn’t have far to walk to find a nice coffee shop, almost next door, serving an excellent cafe creme and breakfast!

Amazing central hotel

An amazing hotel in the port area of La Rochelle. The decor is quirky and stylish, the staff are friendly and very helpful, Jeremy arranged discounted parking nearby, you just need to email reception to book. Rooms were basic, but had everything you needed. Beds super comfortable, and great showers. We travelled with a large group for the La Rochelle vs Exeter Chiefs champions cup rugby. The hotel is in the busy bar area, so can be a little noisy, but was perfect for us. We will stay here again. 5 stars.

Annonce mensongère sur le parking - Qualité limite

J'avais sélectionné cet hôtel parce qu’il était indiqué \"Parking assuré\". MENSONGE ! En effet les palaces de stationnement payant étaient toute occupées et la voie d'accès à l'entrée de l'hôtel fermée par des barrières et plots. La seule solution présentée par l'hôtesse d'accueil fut le Parking Vieux Port Sud à un prix exorbitant malgré le contrat avec l'hôtel. A cela s'ajoute un trajet piétonnier peu agréable avec valises et par le temps pluvieux régnant.
Je note que l'hôtesse, à ce sujet du parking a purement donné l'impression de nous prendre, mon épouse et moi-même pour des \"ploucs\". Ce qui est passablement désobligeant pour quelqu'un qui a fait de nombreux voyages et le tour du Monde avec une multitude d'escales.
Nous avons noté également le manque de pression d'eau au troisième étage, tant au lavabo que pour la douche. L'absence de ventilation ou son non fonctionnement occasionne beaucoup de buée dans une salle de bain sans fenêtre, ce qui est gênant.
Il conviendrait de demander à la mairie de retirer les plots et barrières ainsi que les minables arbustes en boîte dans la rue. Cela permettrait d'accéder en voiture pour déposer les bagages à l'entrée de l'hôtel et d'aller se garer ensuite \"gratuitement\" à un parking dédié à la Fabrique.
Cette situation et anomalie sont d'autant regrettables lorsque l'on voit l'accès au parking IBIS en face de votre hôtel.
Le surcoût du parking place très mal La Fabrique sur le rapport qualité /prix.
Je regrette mon choix de La Fabrique
