Right in the middle of the waterfront restaurant and tourist area of the old harbor. Room upgrade thanks to Booking was really nice and we got the best view right out over the water. Very helpful and friendly reception staff, not least with carrying some of our baggage up from street-level entrance (since they have no elevator). The Harbor area of La Rochelle is beautiful, with lots to see and do and with great dining and cafés, etc.

Parking is a bit of a hassle, but it isn't the hotel's fault. The local government is trying to make the waterfront area a nearly car-free pedestrian area, which is nice once you are there. It was, however, possible to (slowly and carefully) drive to the hotel to drop off luggage. Underground parking is an 8-10 minute walk away along interesting streets, shops, and restaurants, and was reasonably priced. Lack of elevator in the hotel was not an issue for us, but might be a problem for people with reduced mobility.

Room was excellent, staff very helpful, breakfast delicious and overall it was a very pleasant stay.

The wi-fi in our room (room 6) was very weak, almost impossible to stay connected for more than a minute or so. Finding parking is not easy, but you can't blame the hotel for that, and they do offer several suggestions in the emails.

Great placating for eating out etc. the room was spacious and modern and comfortable. Slept very well. Staff were fantastic. Vincent was wonderful. Polite kind, nothing too much trouble. Very friendly patient and understanding that we were tired from travelling on our motorbike. Helped us find safe secure parking. Ursula also very kind helpful and friendly. Would return to La Marine

No parking outside.

This hotel is right in the heart of downtown La Rochelle along the harbor, so it is an easy walk to restaurants, the ferris wheel, and all the sights. We had a lovely room that was very comfortable and quiet. The toilet broke a part on our 2nd night, so we had a plumber in the room at 11:30 pm at night. These things happen, so it wasn't really the hotel's fault, but it disturbed our night's sleep. We felt the hotel should have compensated us in some way, but they didn't.

There are 2 flights of stairs to get up to the hotel desk, and then our room was 3 flights more above that. There is no elevator, so keep that in mind. The paid parking isn't particularly close to the hotel, so dragging one's bags can also be an issue.

We upgraded to a room (No 7)with a view of the old port which was excellent! It was so good our friends would meet us and bring a bottle or two for pre dinner drinks looking at the view of the port and the crowds below. it was better than sitting in the bars below!

Too many stairs! If you were less mobile then you would struggle with this hotel. We had 52 to our room and no lift! No parking at the hotel for your car however they provided a discounted rate for a secure underground car park approx 10-15 mins walk away. They provided a pass for the car park to allow you in and out at anytime during your stay(€12) per day.

Wonderful location with the most beautiful view of the old port. The French door and window blocked out any street noise. Comfortable bed and good aircon.Friendly and helpful staff. Would highly recommend to anyone. However, there are some stairs and no lift so maybe not for everyone!

Maybe a mini fridge in the room?

Perfect position. Friendly staff. Wonderful city

The stairs. My room was on second floor and as hotel on second floor this meant 4 flights of stairs. I also found it hard work carrying my luggage from distant car park but it is a medieval city.

Once located and checked in the location by the harbour was superb. The room was well appointed and bed very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent.

It is difficult to find and access by car is tricky. More help on arrival would be good but there is usually only one member of staff.

Clean & good location ursula was very welcoming and informative

Bit odd having reception on 1st floor & using the intercom to access it Bathroom & toilet a bit small could do with outside painting Although nice having your breakfast served to your room wasn't ideal could do with a breakfast room

Amazing location with a great view of the old port. Great to watch the evening street entertainment from our room! Room very clean and comfortable, lovely bathroom. AC very welcome on a very hot day. Very nice breakfast which we enjoyed in our room sat by the window taking in the view. Perfect! Staff very welcoming, friendly and helpful and spoke very good English.

Nothing to dislike.
