5/5 Excellent
"Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Great location."
"Special thanks to the receptionist who helped us when we were trying to find a suitable parking space for our longer than average car - phoning the hotel next door to ask if we could park in one of their spaces. Much appreciated. All staff were very helpful. The hotel is near the train station in a quiet area but an easy level walk to the bars, restaurants, shops etc. "

"Excellent place to stay. Nice and quite and attentive staff. The hotel has been well decorated and has excellent facilities; one of the best I've stayed at this year. 2 issues: the breakfast at 32 Eu per person is excessively priced; the hotel could have sent directions before the stay as it is somewhat difficult to find by car and GPS."
A verified traveller from Hemel Hempstead stayed at Maison des Ambassadeurs
"The staff were so helpful and extremely friendly. They also booked a restaurant reservation for us and couldn’t have been nicer.
We booked a room with sea view and balcony,room was spacious and nicely decorated and the bed was so comfortable (queen size).
A couple of small issues,toilet is quite small and we had a problem with it flushing during our last night if we were staying longer I am sure it would have been fixed promptly as the staff were extremely helpful as I mentioned.
Would highly recommend this hotel. Location and staff were great….."
"We stayed for one night at this property. Great location with free parking close by. A good base for exploring La Rochelle. Would stay again but mattress not very comfortable and first hotel I have ever stayed in where they ask you to take your rubbish out yourself. It served a purpose and the bottles of water and sweets were a nice touch. "
A verified traveller stayed at Lagrange Apart'HOTEL L'Escale Marine
"Great location in a lovely place. Large room over looking the harbour. The only down side to that was a bit noisy in the morning. The staff were lovely and helped us with bags up to the room and could not have been more helpful.
They showed us where to get free parking about 10 mins from the hotel"
"No frills no fuss, perfect for a short stay, close to all attractions. The extra time allowed for check out is very convenient. Great value for money breakfast was a added bonus. Staff helpful and friendly "
