We had a wonderful stay here. The hotel was clean, comfortable and excellent value for money. We were welcomed by friendly reception staff and if we had any issues (the safe battery ran out!) it was dealt with quickly and without fuss. We didn’t take the breakfast option so can’t comment there but the coffee smelled amazing each morning! The hotel is a little outside of the centre but that is reached easily with a 5 minute walk along the coastal path. There is a plethora or restaurants within east reach. We look forward to staying again!

A fantastic location right on the sea. Parking is chargeable but street parking is easy to find. About a 20 min walk to restaurants etc. Although I had opted to pay at the property, the full amount was taken from my card around 10 days prior to arrival. Unfortunately I saw a rat scurry across the decking whilst relaxing in a sun lounger and reported it to the staff

We visited La Rochelle to watch the women’s rugby, the hotel was walkable distance to the stadium. The room was quite small but really well appointed, very modern with lovely finishes, furniture, linen etc and the rest of the hotel was the same. It was right on the water, so ver scenic and easy to park too. It’s around a 20 min to the centre for restaurants mind you. I would certainly recommend staying here. Very nice staff too.

Hotel right on the sea front with lovely sea and harbour views. 1.6klms (1 mile) walk from the city center. Nice walk but a long way if you are not a good walker and I wouldn't want to walk through the park alone at night. The front terrace was nice with sun lounger and table and chairs. Large comfy bed with tv, kettle, hairdryer. No air con, but a fan in the room. Didn't have breakfast but was charged for it on arrival so had to ask them to take it off our bill at the end. The breakfast looked good with croissants, cake, bread meats cheese cereal. We only had a coffee, but it wasn't very nice. No bar so you have to order drinks etc from reception. There is a little cafe close by

2 day stay in La Rochelle

The hotel is amazing right on the coast overlooking St Rochelle harbour. Couple of things let it down but won't change our rating as the place is in such a great location. There was parking on sire and i think the charge was quite high in the room there was no water which seems to be standard in any others we have stayed in at that price. Towels were small, we didn't ask but I am sure their customer service would have provided more if required, and you have to squeeze by the toilet to close the door, no issue for a couple leave it open but if you aren't it was a bit tight. AS per overall score would definitely try and book this hotel again if staying in the area.

Clean, modern and and situated beautifully at the waters edge with an easy 20 minute walk along the coast into the centre of La Rochelle. We chose to make use of the free bike hire which turns it into a 5 minute ride into town. Bikes are king here as the entire town and surrounding roads have dedicated cycle lanes. The outside decking area has sun beds and is a great place to relax and watch the sun set and the yachts sail back to the huge marina, the other side of the water.

Just ok....the good and the not so good...

The hotel is a little out of the town so quite a walk into the centre of La Rochelle. You will need to be prepared to walk a lot if you stay here.

The hotel is also a little tired in places and the carpets were not great, but overall ok.

Sun terrace was nice with great views. Dog friendly hotel also had free underground parking.

The staff are amazing, exceptionally helpful and work so hard. They do everything at this hotel from working reception to serving breakfast and cleaning the dining room etc.. Only downside is that sometimes reception will not be manned as they are busy doing other jobs such as hoovering up and clearing tables etc.. and they seem to have far too many jobs to do!

The cleaners were very attentive and appeared to be taking covid quite seriously.

Next time when we visit La Rochelle, we would probably stay somewhere else, closer to the town itself. Despite this, we did enjoy our stay.

A nice clean hotel with a terrace overlooking the sea. The service was very friendly and accommodating. They took all precautions regarding COVID-19. So we felt safe. We might suggest that they have a small restaurant for dinner. Not necessarily a full fledged restaurant, but at least something light like salads etc. We didn’t have a car and there are not many places to eat in the immediate neighborhood.

Loved the location and the view (if you're facing the ocean). Very quiet at night provided you don't have loud neighbors. When the tide is up there's a little landing next to the hotel from which you can take swim. You can walk to the old port from the hotel in less than 15 minutes, and the environment is lovely. Breakfast is a bit poor for the price.

Only negative point which is nothing to do with the hotel: it is extremely difficult to get a taxi back to the hotel at night. Restaurants are unwilling to call for you and you may have a very long wait. There seems to be only Les Abeilles taxis and they seem overwhelmed, this is April, so in high summer it must be awful.

Very expensive and disappointing

We had high hopes for the hotel judging by the photos and other reviews. The downstairs reception, restaurant and terrace were nice but the room, hallways and outside appearance of the hotel were disappointing. The outside looked like it was in desperate need of a coat of paint- not very attractive at all. The hallways and room were quite tired and shabby looking and could have been cleaner. It is definitely overpriced as we have stayed in much nicer hotels for far less money.

Great Hotel by the sea.

Wonderful Hotel right on beside the water. We loved having breakfast sitting on the terrace looking out over the water. The hotel was clean and updated. It's about a 20 minute walk to the Old Port (The main tourist area). The walk was delightful, as we had to chose to walk along the old stone sea wall or 1 block over was a promenade with trees and flowers.
There was no air conditioning in the room, although there were large windows that opened to allow the sea breeze in. Most of the year this shouldn't be an issue but they were having unusually hot weather, which meant nights were uncomfortably warm. No Fridge.
Staff was friendly and helpful.

Old Town Access without the Old Town Hassle

The hotel is about 10~15 minute walk from Old Town. The walk is very scenic and safe; different routes are available so it won't get old. This allows the hotel to have larger rooms than typical and free parking.

The outside of the hotel doesn't look very inviting (a big concrete box) but the rooms are tastefully done and the balconies overlooking the water are a nice amenity.

The immediate location doesn't have much to offer for dining or entertainment, but the walk to Old Town is easy enough if you don't have any mobility issues.

We would stay here again.

See La Rochelle in style from your balcony

We stayed 3 nights at Les Brises enjoying some of the pleasures of La Rochelle. Its setting is splendid - right on the shoreline about 20 minutes slow stroll along the front, through a little park, to the centre of town. Reception is staffed all through the night for late/early arrivals. Staff are friendly and helpful - even asked us if we would prefer to speak French or English - they realise some of us are learners! We enjoyed fine weather and took breakfast outside on the terrace - this is a real bonus for what is a very simple hotel. The tide laps right up against the terrace wall and you can watch lots of boats go sailing by. They offer excellent choices at breakfast - fruit, yoghurt, boiled eggs, ham, cheese, alongside good breads and croissants. Evening drinks can be taken on the terrace, too, before wandering into town to try one of the many, many restaurants in La Rochelle. (Or making a big picnic and enjoying that on one of the many benches along the front). Bike hire available and that's perfect way to get around like a local.

Nice place in La Rochelle!

We arrived after a long drive and gratefully, had one of the fastest check-ins ever (probably less than two minutes). They had our name, gave us the key, told us how to log onto the wi-fi, and off we went to our room! Very pleasant stay with a very nice breakfast buffet (13 euros/person, but with a nice selection that you'd expect to pay more for). It was about a mile walk to the old port area, but we're walkers and the path there was very nice (lots of people, too, so security was never an issue). My only advice would be to pay the extra to get a room on the water side. Our room was perfectly pleasant, but it would've been nice to look out over the water.

Enjoying the sea view

After being in the Dordogne region for the previous week it was lovely to be near the sea.We enjoyed wine and nibbles on our deck watching wind surfers, rowers, yachts and boat go past. Low tide is not such a nice view though .Décor is very pleasant and it was good to have a haridryer in the bathroom.When we first arrived in our room there was a very unpleasant smell coming from the toilet ,( which was a separate room to the bathroom).We mentioned the smell to the from office staff and someone was sent to investigate/ attend to when we went out and on our return the smell had improved.All the front office staff were very pleasant and friendly and spoke English very well.It was great to have no charge for parking and free wifi too.
Being 1.5 km from the Old Port centre, in a residential seafront area,( no beach) we walked there and back - a flat easy walk along the sea front and through the local park ,did not have the noises associated with inner city so had peaceful night sleeps.We did not have breakfast at the hotel
There is a little bar and approx. 150metres way with table and chairs on the sea front footpath- very pleasant

Beautiful harbor side setting

Very nice, clean, modern hotel in an ideal setting by the harbor. Enjoyed watching the tides come in and out and all the activities from paragliding to children sailing classes. Breakfast and service were wonderful.

Lovely view from harbour-side room

Our room overlooked the Old Port in La Rochelle and had a lovely view. The beds were comfortable but the room was quite basic. Had the added advantage of a small balcony with table and chairs where we could sit and enjoy the view. Possibly needs a bit of up-dating but has character and we were made to feel welcome. Disadvantage is they don't do evening meals and the breakfast is very boring. It's about a ten minute walk to the Casino where they do serve evening meals which are quite good value.

We have stayed at this hotel once before, in Springtime and decided to return for a pre-Christmas trip. It is a lovely friendly place. Situated right on the bay so worth having a seaview room. We enjoyd the 15-20minute walk into the centre of La Rochelle along the promenade. Great having free parking too.
