Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very helpful, friendly, and beautiful staff who pampered me while I was recuperating from a pulled knee ligament. Young Deborah and Pierre especially could come home with me to befriend my two offspring of the same age. The place itself is a gorgeous neo-classical structure of heavy sandstone blocks finished with contemporary fixings that together create a refined yet funky air of nouveau chic. Great value too.

Staff, confort et lieu au top

Deux nuits dans un ensemble d'une élégante et magnifique architecture, accompagnées par un staff serviable et sympa. Et ensuite, la propreté des sanitaires, le confort du lit font des lieux l'incontournable à la hauteur de La Rochelle. Enfin, un spécial merci à la réceptionniste. Sébastien.

Emplacement parfait pour dĂ©couvrir La Rochelle Ă  pied ! Une hĂ©bergement bien constituĂ© avec une chambre partagĂ©e spacieuse, des sanitaires Ă©loignĂ©s pour Ă©viter les nuisances sonores. Seul bĂ©mol, le dĂ©pĂŽt du bagage Ă  l’arrivĂ©e, avant l’horaire de prise de chambre, est payant. Montant faible (max 5€) mais dans le principe d’une auberge de jeunesse, c’est un service qui ne devrait pas ĂȘtre facturĂ©.

Un hostel trĂšs correct aux bonnes prestations

Un dortoir de deux et quand mĂȘme un espace apprĂ©ciable pour se reposer et prĂ©parer ses bagages. Continuez Ă  bien entretenir les locaux afin que tout reste propre et sans poussiĂšres car dans les chambres, avec le bois et les draps, il faut beaucoup aspirer car beaucoup de pluches peuvent se former. Le choix au petit-dĂ©jeuner est superbe et tout est appĂ©tissant.

SĂ©jour en famille

En visite Ă  la Rochelle, nous sommes venus en famille pour une nuit. Les plus : Proche centre ville et situĂ© dans une ruelle plutĂŽt calme. TrĂšs beau bĂątiment renovĂ©e et super decoration. Prix abordable Pas de parking gratuit Ă  proximitĂ© mais possibilite de se garer proche de l'etablissement tout de mĂȘme Ă  moindre coĂ»t MalgrĂ© que ce soit une auberge de jeunesse peu de nuisance vis Ă  vis des clients (il y en a mais on le sait en choississant ce genre d'Ă©tablissement). Les moins : Pas de buffet pour le petit dejeuner (chaque produit se paie Ă  l'unitĂ©). Petit dejeuner inclus uniquement continental (1 demi baguette ou 1 croissant et 1 boissons chaude ou froide). ProximitĂ© avec l'accueil pas idĂ©al pour une chambre familial (une chambre en retrait aurait Ă©vitĂ© d'ĂȘtre rĂ©veillĂ© par un aspirateur (?!) Ă  3h du matin par exemple)

Bon SĂ©jour

Cet hĂŽtel est exactement ce que j'attendais. Il se trouve proche du centre, donc le dĂ©placement n'est pas un problĂšme, c'est Ă  seulement quelques minutes Ă  pied de La Grosse Horloge. L’heure du Check-in est Ă  15h donc c’est pas trop tard comme dans des autres hĂŽtels, et ça permet d’y arriver et aprĂšs aller se promener dans la ville. Les toilettes et les douches sont propres et toujours disponibles, malheureusement la nuit il faisait un peu chaud. Les chambres sont propres Ă©galement, et le service est trĂšs bon, les rĂ©ceptionnistes sont gentilles. Le lit Ă©tait confortable. Il n'y a pas beaucoup de place pour ranger la valise pour ceux qui dorment dans le lit du haut. Les couvertures sont confortables. La rĂ©ception est agrĂ©able, j'y ai pris le petit-dĂ©jeuner et c'Ă©tait bon.
