    • The Hôtel de France, in the heart of Rochefort, very close to the Tourist Office and the famous Place Colbert, welcomes you all year round with its 25 tastefully decorated rooms. Free parking directly opposite the hotel makes parking very easy.

      In the heart of Charente-Maritime, Rochefort boasts remarkable sites and monuments that are absolutely worth discovering, such as the frigate Hermione, the Royal Rope Factory, and the Maritime Museum, which offer a fabulous journey into the past. But Rochefort is also the ideal base for exploring the many attractions of the department : the Île d'Oléron, the Île de Ré, the Île d'Aix, and La Rochelle!

      Our hotel was built in the 17th century, and has always had this status, a famous French writer even stayed here... Listed as a Historic Monument, this remarkable building has welcomed its visitors through the centuries, combining comfort and a family atmosphere.

      Gilles and Valérie will be delighted to welcome you throughout the year, and to advise you on places to visit in your area.
      For more information, please feel free to contact us!

    Appalling customer service, no compassion, no empathy, just in it for the money. I had to postpone my stay for medical reasons. I notified the establishment 24 hours in advance because I had no other option, and they flatly refused a cancellation without charge. They charged me for the entire night without any qualms. When I called to explain the situation, I was told that the cancellation policy was valid 72 hours before the stay and not otherwise. So, you shouldn't have any unforeseen circumstances with them.

    Trip planned from October 2025 to June 2026. Booked 7 nights on your website thinking I would get a preferential rate. On the contrary, the price was €12 to €22 more per day (as seen on site) for a rather ordinary room, whereas the photos showed "themed" rooms. We were very satisfied with the location but very disappointed with Cit'hotel. However, the manager was very welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.

    Overnight stop on our way up to Brittany. Hotel was ok, clean but basic with the world's slowest lift! Breakfast was good.

  • "A little past its due date"

    3 / 5 Reviews posted by Nick C (San Francisco, California) on 16/06/2026

    While fine for a night, this place is a little too funky smelling, with a few too many stains in the carpet, to really recommend. Perfectly located but in desperate need of renovation.

    We booked this direct for €93 which is a little more than we’ve paid for other rooms on this trip. It was fine. Friendly staff with great English language skills. We were invited to park our...
