Located on the Bay of Biscay, La Rochelle’s history mostly involved the sea; today it has a large pleasure-boat marina. Thus its heart is the picturesque "Vieux Port" ("Old Harbor"). The city retains a rich architectural heritage, and has an aquarium, attractive gardens and a natural-history museum. Book early for summer; mid-July in particular features Francofolies, a huge French music festival.

Beguiled by the charm of La Rochelle, its archway-lined streets, its gargoyles and rich historic past, Olivier et Sabine DURAND-ROBAUX have chosen an 18th century home in the heart of town close by the old harbour to open a Bed & Breakfast which offers 4 roomsoverlooking a lovely garden to ensure your calm, comfort and relaxation.Breakfast is served on the ground floor in a cheerful open kitchen area or on the outdoor terrace, weather permitting.
Stayed for 1 night in the Aqua room on the 2nd floor. Welcomed by Olivier the owner who was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a brief history on the building. Also recommended restaurants for us to eat in, one of which we did, and was excellent, La boussole The room was lovely, a very comfortable bed and good shower, overlooked the garden. Tv in the room, but no English channels on it. Also had a kettle to make a hot drink. A very quiet room and nice and dark with the shutters closed. Breakfast was just lovely with breads, cheese and jams, and good coffee. We pre booked parking in oliviers garage to the rear of the b&b, which was brilliant, and only €12. Would thoroughly recommend this b&b, only a 10 min walk to the harbour.

Our bed and breakfast is situated in la Rochelle, in 5 min from city center. Our 3 rooms are new and the decoration is about famous exploration from the last centuries around the world and specially Australia, Québec and Patagonia (Room James Cook, Room Champlain and Room Magellan). Our garden is made by the owner where you could find plenty of flowers, terrace, goldfish pond on the center of the garden and vegetables growing up during summer (sell for the guests). Our house was thinking to make your stay really comfortable and where everybody could find his place and privacy. The entrance of the 3 rooms is independent and the breakfast is taking in common on the common room or in the garden. Hope to welcome you at our guest house Terre en vue
Lovely, quiet place. Greeted by Aude, the hostess, who was charming and even handed me a beer as a welcome! My wife chose fruit juice. Room overlooking garden which was lovely. Very convenient for the city centre. Breakfast was fine, with homemade yoghurt.

We had booked to stay here for three days and as soon as we arrived wished that we had booked to stay longer. Everything about this B&B is done with the utmost care. Rooms are immaculate and very well equipped. Marie-Christine took tea with us when we first arrived and took the time to tell us about the best things to see in the area, and where to eat. She even booked us a table at a great restaurant in La Rochelle. Breakfasts were delicious and beautifully presented. Everything is organic and much of it home made. Her French toast, perfumed with the local liqueur, was wonderful. We came away feeling completely spoiled and hope to go back one day.

We are situated at 10 minutes from LA ROCHELLE , in the heart of access to the islands, beaches and the Marais Poitevin. In the authentic environment of an old typical country house, five charming guest rooms with television included and free wire internet access, a swimming pool, a landscaped garden and a closed parking place.Nearly: the Rompsay canal, the "marais Poitevin", several parks and mini-cruise to the isles (Ré, Oléron, Aix and Fort Boyard).
We stayed with our family of 4 and booked Nature and Art Deco rooms. We liked the following aspects of La Rochelle Lodge: Off street parking, breakfast (included ham/ cheese/ salami from local area), host Eric who was very helpful with maps and information, spacious room size, heating was good, wifi no problems. The stay would be even better if: *We had chosen a different room. The thunderous noise from people moving around in room above, the meowing cat and cat fights kept us awake. *The room needs maintenance. The limestone wall is crumbling and you can hear stones falling off, leaving rubble on tiles. (See pics). The room had a damp smell. *Bedding needs attention. Mattress was very saggy, as were pillows (note pillow drop over chair in pics). *chair in Art Deco room is peeling and needs replacement. Our sons had a much better stay in Art Deco room and we would stay again at La Rochelle but not in Nature room.
