    • 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.

    A beautiful residence located in the former Arsenal, very well located, on the edge of the marina, a stone's throw from the Corderie Royale: the location is perfect! Five of us came and stayed in a spacious and very well-equipped duplex apartment. Sheets, towels, tea towels, trash bags—everything was provided to make us feel comfortable. There were a few minor "negative" points, but they didn't dampen our enthusiasm, notably the fact that the blinds aren't blackout enough (which is annoying in June). We didn't purchase any extras, which were quite expensive (breakfast, parking, etc.). Note that parking spaces are expensive in Rochefort, but there is free parking near the residence. Access to the residence isn't very well signposted: it's via the food quay, to the right of the "La Cantina" restaurant (an Italian restaurant where the food is good and reasonably priced), then the Concierge Service is on the right of the courtyard, at the "Annexe," to collect the keys. A great stay for excellent value for money.

    I highly recommend the Résidence de l'Arsenal, which gave us complete satisfaction during our stay in Rochefort. I find this architect magnificent, which already justifies my enthusiasm. Everything is new, impeccable, and I find it remarkable to restore 18th-century military buildings to this extent. Especially if they are from Le Vaux! It feels very luxurious. Everything is there, and our studio is very comfortable. The adjoining restaurants are also perfect and very reasonably priced. The reception service is... welcoming! 🤗

    3 nights in this residence, everything was good: a small functional kitchen, good bedding, recent renovation and nice decor. I would have given the location 5 stars if I had been lucky enough to have a view of the port

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