    • The Hotel de France, in the heart of Rochefort, close to the Tourist Office and the famous Place Colbert, welcomes you all year round with its 25 carefully decorated rooms. Free parking right in front of the establishment will allow you to park very easily.

      Located in the heart of Charente-Maritime, Rochefort boasts remarkable sites and monuments that are a must-see, such as the Hermione frigate, the Royal Rope Factory, and the Naval Museum, which offer a fabulous journey into the past. Rochefort is also the ideal place to visit the department's many attractions : the island of Oléron, the island of Ré, the island of Aix, and La Rochelle!

      Our hotel was built in the 17th century, and has always had this status, a famous French writer even stayed there... Listed as a Building of France, 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 advise you on places to visit in your area.
      For more information, please do not hesitate to contact us!

    The hotel is aging but clean. The reception is inconsistent. The soap dispenser is out of stock. The €14 breakfast is a disgrace: low-quality cold cuts in ridiculously small portions. The goat and cow's milk cheeses are the cheapest available. There are only hard-boiled eggs, completely black inside. No plain yogurt, only sweetened options. A withered apple sits alone in its fruit bowl, along with canned mixed fruit... and everything else is equally disappointing.

    We arrived at the hotel mid afternoon on a Wednesday only to find that parking was at a premium. After driving around a 1000 space free car park, unbelievably, we could not find a space. We found a...
