Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt im Saint Nicolas. Das Hotel ist aufwendig und wertig renoviert und das sieht man an jeder Ecke. Auch das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit. Besonders begeistert waren wir vom Frühstücksbuffet, da dieses (vor allem im Vergleich mit dem französischen Standard) eine breite Auswahl bietet und zusätzlich die Speisen von hoher Qualität sind. Das Hotel hat eine super Lage und man kann von dort La Rochelle sehr gut zu Fuß erkunden, es gibt Parkplätze direkt am Hotel diese sollte man jedoch im Vorhinein reservieren.

Dejligt centralt beliggende hotel

Dejligt hotel som ligger i et virkeligt stille kvarter men dog super centralt, med virkelig mange restauranter lige om hjørnet. Meget rent og pænt. Personalet er dog ikke så imødekommende, men hvis man er ligeglad om de kigger op når man kommer ind så er det jo lige meget.

Key to our stay was the provision of secure parking. The hotel was exceptionally clean and staff were particularly helpful. Albeit the rooms were well kitted out, we did find the toilet quite cramped. English tea would be useful along with some fresh milk for the rooms, may be a small fridge would assist. We would most definitely stay upon our next visit.
