    • Enjoying a remarkable location, facing the historic port of Rochefort, the Charente river and close to the city centre of Rochefort, La Résidence de l'Arsenal Royal brings back to life a historic monument from the 17th century : the Magasin aux Vivres.


      In 1669, Louis XIV commissioned the engineer Louis-François Le Vau to build this majestic building, considered the largest and most beautiful of the kingdom's naval stores.


      A true gateway to the History of France, the site has been listed as a Historic Monument since 2007 and has undergone extensive rehabilitation by companions, respecting the materials and architecture of the period.


      Open all year round, our collection of furnished tourist accommodation now brings this place with royal ambitions to life, providing access to an exceptional site and thus experiencing a piece of history.


      During your stay, enjoy a personalized welcome and settle into a spacious apartment with 3*** comfort.

      Entirely designed for your greatest comfort, our apartments from T1 to T4 are fully equipped: your modern kitchen, quality bedding and all the equipment at your disposal will allow you to enjoy your Rochefort getaway in total autonomy.

      La Pièce à Café, our catering area, will welcome you for your breakfasts and will delight you throughout the day with “homemade” cuisine prepared by our chef, in all simplicity.


      Don't wait any longer and book your stay in an atypical historical setting on our website now: www. residencearsenalroyal.fr

    Beautiful setting and good location. Friendly welcome from the staff. Clean and well-equipped accommodation, comfortable bed, large towels in the bathroom. The only negative point was the lack of soundproofing; I could feel drafts. I would return, but at a different time of year.

    We were fortunate enough to stay in the Arsenal Royal residence to lead a cooking class for one of our clients. Our clients were delighted, and so were we. The venue was immaculate, and Stéphane gave us a warm welcome. Everything was exactly as we had been told beforehand. We will gladly return for future corporate groups, individuals, or hen parties. See you soon!

    During a 5-day seminar in this apartment hotel, I noticed a lot of constraints on a daily basis, already no 5g or 4g network, mandatory wifi from the residence inside... we had a T4 on the ground floor, overlooking the street with 2 bathrooms, no possibility of ventilation without absence the tilt and turn does not exist, heritage monument requires wooden windows therefore not suitable. 1 bathroom is blind no opening to the outside, strong smell of humidity. No inventory on arrival or departure, the family who preceded our arrival had damaged the Venetian blinds in the bedrooms, not replaced. Knowing that the residence is secure, badge required at all doors except that we only had one badge for 3! Answer lost by the previous tenants... however a door leading to the outside does not lock at all, remains open to any malicious intrusion. I do not recommend it, the setting is nicely restored but the furnished accommodation is a labyrinth...the original buildings have been respected but the stairs and half elevators are tedious to use...accessible for people with reduced mobility, complicated at least in the part we occupied, building F. On the other hand, it is well located.

    Excellent staff, perfect location, an underground parking with direct access. The breakfast time could be a bit longer during the WE :-)

    UGH... I would really love to give 5stars, but can't. The venue is lovely, great underground car park (costs extra) which leads direct to your apartment, breakfast outside in the cafe next door (if...
