    • Organize your events at the Mercure La Rochelle Vieux-Port

      1,000 m² of modular spaces, 7 rooms, 2 offices, an exceptional location facing the port: everything is in place to make your event a success.

      Located just 3 hours from Paris by train, in the heart of La Rochelle on the Old Port and a stone's throw from the SNCF train station.

      The Mercure La Rochelle Vieux-Port Hotel is an ideal address for your seminars, meetings, study days, cocktails, company parties or private events.

      Here, everything is designed to combine work, relaxation and inspiration. The city, on a human scale, is best explored on foot or by bike, and the hotel offers a valuable unity of place : accommodation, catering, meeting spaces and moments of conviviality all under one roof.


      Flexible spaces for all configurations

      Our establishment offers you:

      • An extra-large room in the center of La Rochelle, fully modular into 7 partitioned lounges, bathed in natural light,
      • Two private offices overlooking the fishing port, perfect for small meetings or executive committee meetings (8 to 12 people),
      • A free coworking space, located on the ground floor near the coffee shop or upstairs next to Bar Gaée.


      Whatever the format of your event – from 10 to 500 people – we offer tailor-made configurations : conferences, workshops, speed-meetings, dinners, birthdays or weddings, baptisms… accompanied by a team dedicated to your project.


      Modern equipment and top-of-the-range service

      Our spaces are all equipped with professional equipment : high-speed Wi-Fi, video projectors, screens, sound systems, flip charts...
      For dining, several options are available: seated lunches and dinners, varied buffets, cocktail receptions, or even cocktail and tapas tastings on the poolside terrace. A cozy private area is available for group meals.


      Spaces by the ocean

      Completely renovated in 2023, the hotel has 150 comfortable rooms (standard, twin, Privilege or suites) to extend the experience on site.
      His bistronomic restaurant, GAÉE, is open 7 days a week and offers inventive and local cuisine.
      In good weather, the terrace adjoining the pool becomes a real party spot, ideal for organizing after-work drinks or private parties in an elegant and friendly setting.

    The Mercure La Rochelle Vieux-Port Hotel boasts a truly ideal location: just steps from the city center and easily accessible on foot from the train station, which is a real plus. The room was beautiful, comfortable, and well-maintained. We also had excellent communication with the hotel staff, both during our stay and beforehand, with prompt, efficient, and professional email exchanges. However, a major drawback is the hotel restaurant. The food is subpar, the atmosphere is uninspiring, and the staff seems overwhelmed and disorganized. This clearly contrasts with the overall quality of the establishment. In short, a very good hotel for its location, rooms, and service, but it's best to choose from the many restaurants nearby for meals.

    I went to the Mercure yesterday while passing through La Rochelle and received an exceptionally warm welcome from the receptionist, Louise, if I remember correctly from our conversation. A friendly, gracious, and pleasant welcome, and impeccable service. All of this will definitely make me return. Thank you to this young lady for her professionalism.

    A one-night stay, too short to enjoy everything, but I felt so comfortable that on a subsequent trip to La Rochelle, I returned to work for half a day. The hotel's location is really convenient for walking to the city center, as well as to the train station. The decor and spaces are comfortable and welcoming, perfect for both relaxing and working. Special mention for the rooftop pool. Spacious and comfortable rooms (including the bedding). And the staff are smiling, helpful, and friendly. Great, I recommend it! Well done to everyone!
