The on-site restaurant Gaée serves a menu focused on fresh, local seafood and produce from the Charente-Maritime region, with views of the old port and the towers.

The heated outdoor rooftop pool is open seasonally and includes sun loungers and umbrellas. The fitness center has Peloton bikes and Technogym equipment. The hotel also offers bike tours, walking tours, and classes on local culture. Towels and changing facilities are provided poolside.
By the Old Port
The hotel is located on the edge of La Rochelle's old port, directly opposite the Aquarium La Rochelle and a 2-minute walk from La Rochelle train station. The old port area, with restaurants and shops, is a 5-minute walk away. The maritime museum and the city center are within a 10-minute walk. Free high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout.
Services
Reception is open 24 hours with express check-in/check-out and luggage storage. Private parking is available on-site at an extra cost, and there is an electric vehicle charging station. The hotel offers laundry, dry cleaning, ironing, babysitting services, and meeting/banquet facilities. Room service is available during restaurant hours. Facilities for disabled guests include wheelchair-accessible rooms and bathrooms with grab rails.
“The modern rooms, while impeccably clean, benefit greatly from their prime positioning overlooking the port, especially as the day winds down. Its proximity to the heart of La Rochelle is a distinct advantage, though the swimming pool and the well-stocked breakfast buffet provide excellent reasons to linger on-site. The staff's attentiveness contributes to a polished stay.”
