Hotel di Charron

The hotel is 10~15 minutes walk from the centre/ the pier. There’s a supermarket Carrefour City nearby that you can easily grab some water or snacks on the way back in the evening. The hotel feels a bit dated but the room is reasonably clean. Ladies should note there’s only a 2 in 1 shampoo/shower gel provided in the bathroom so bring your own shampoo and hair conditioner. The receptionist is cheerful and very helpful when I asked for informations. The only issue I noticed is it seems there’s a club nearby and I could hear the music vaguely even after midnights. Nevertheless, I’d say the stay was good value overall.

Easy checkin. Room is clean.

I struggle to recognise this as a 5 star establishment. Pleasant enough and in a good location, with friendly staff ready to assist. Sadly the systems and facilities let down the hotel. We stayed 4 nights. The hotel restaurant was fully booked on the first night (we were not warned are advised to book in advance despite contacting the hotel prior to arrival) and it was closed on our second and third nights. We were disinclined to book on our last night. The hotel allows dogs. Fine providing owners do not leave them in the room whilst at breakfast, allowing them to bark constantly and waken neighbours. Breakfast was average and let down by slow replacement of items. The moderately warm but congealed bacon and scrambled egg were not attractive. On the other hand, the kitchen produced two excellent omelettes. Leisure facilities were not used. The steam room and sauna were available but shower facilities were out of action during our stay. Who wants to sit around the leisure area in a sweaty state? The pool was poor and afforded nil privacy. A good, if rather expensive cocktail bar, staffed by a man who knows what he is doing. A good, but again, expensive car parking service. There are no sensible options in this part of town.

I stayed at the Central Park Hotel in June 2021. I was with my husband and 5yo. The hotel manager was extremely helpful and made sure she was available to chat during breakfast etc. Our room was very good. It was cleverly laid out with an alcove section partitioned off from the main bedroom. It allowed our son to get to sleep whilst we were still up. I wish all hotel rooms had this layout! The location of the hotel worked well for us. Being across from the park, we could easily take our son on walks to the city zoo. It took around 10mins to be in the thick of the action at the Old Port. We opted for breakfast and, as a coeliac, I was pleasantly surprised at the gluten free options available. Items were laid out with separate spoons and tongs, and there were separate baskets for bread and cakes. This is the first time I've seen this in France. Finally, my husband and I both had massages at the Spa and had our treatments with Raphael. He was outstanding.

We arrived in the dark, wind and rain. However, the lady from reception and valet came outside to greet us, which we appreciated. Very good car parking. The hotel is a lovely building on a street with nice shops and cafes. The hotel bar and lounge area is very nicely decorated with comfortable furniture and there was a fire burning, creating a lovely atmosphere. Our bedroom was large, the bed and pillows comfortable and the shower was great. I was very impressed by La Rochelle and would love to visit in summer. Very friendly and helpful staff. We did not eat in the restaurant but it looked good. Thankyou

En affaires sur La Rochelle, nous avons réservé 13 jours. Une catastrophe. Arrivée le dimanche soir, une chambre sans aucune lumière pour y accéder après un repas pathétique,( pizza sous vide congelées déballées par le cuisinier devant nous, un réceptionniste n'arrivant pas à se faire comprendre, nous expliquant que si nous voulons une petite serviette de plus pour les cheveux, car juste 2 serviettes de douche, il fallait aller l'acheter! Il était plus absorbé par son téléphone que par les clients qui étaient obligés de linterpeler au restaurant..Honteux! Le lendemain, le sèche cheveux ne fonctionne pas, à la réception on nous dit qu'ils n'y peuvent rien,(que c'est pris dans le mur)ma femme est restée 2 jours les cheveux comme si elle sortait de la piscine pour rencontrer nos partenaires. nous avons dû acheter un sèche cheveux. La chambre est remplie de poussière, tete de lit, aucun ménage n'est fait, la cuvette des toilettes n'est pas nettoyée, pas de balayette, mais les employées ne nettoient rien, photos dispo avant après. Douche qui s'écoule mal,qui se rempli, bonde degeulasse, micose des pieds assurées, fenêtre, miroirs sales, le pq est mis au compte goutte, mdr, et pour continuer, au petit déjeuner, au 4ème jours, plus d'orange à 8h du matin, plus de jambon, mais où est la bienveillance des campanile qu'on a connu??? Cher Monsieur le responsable qui répondez aux vilaines remarques des clients que vous recevez si mal, nous sommes encore là si jamais, cnest pas à nous de changer de chambre, mais à vous de recevoir correctement les gens qui paient d'avance. J'allais oublier, vos pommes de douche ne tiennent pas sur les barres, impossible de prendre une douche sans une main qui tient la pomme et vos VMC ne fonctionnent absolument pas !Aucune vérification des chambres n'est faite quand vos clients arrivent, on a aussi failli se retrouver par terre grâce à la chaise de notre chambre complètement instable, et ce pendant 2 jours. Votre campanile est incompetant pour plus d'une nuit et porte un discrédit sur les autres campanile. Photos et vidéo à votre disposition ! Nous vous souhaitons un excellent week-end. Cdt

____________________ LA SITUATION GÉOGRAPHIQUE ---------- Situé dans la zone commerciale Beaulieu Puilboreau, pour faire du shopping c'est donc top avec pas mal de restaurants pour déjeuner/diner sans problème. Accès très facile quasi direct aux grands axes pour rejoindre par exemple La Rochelle. ____________________ L'HOTEL ET L'ACCUEIL ---------- Standard B&B à tout point de vue, très bon accueil, salle de réception moderne avec un grand espace petit déjeuner. Ascenseurs pour accéder aux chambres. ____________________ LA CHAMBRE ---------- Chambre standard également, avec moquette au sol engendrant pas mal de poussière, bien équipé avec penderie, TV, bureau, climatisé ! Salle de bain tout à fait standard B&B également avec toujours le problème de la douche qui mouille toute la salle de bain. Dans l'ensemble tout est propre. ____________________ LA RESTAURATION ---------- Un service de petit déjeuner est proposé sous forme de buffet sucré/salé. Très bonne variété avec viennoiseries, gâteaux, boissons froides et chaudes, oeuf brouillé, bacon et saucisse. De bons produits. ____________________ RAPPORT QUALITE/PRIX ET LES SERVICES ---------- Très bon rapport qualité/prix et au vu de la situation si vous ne voulez pas payer cher pour être au coeur de La Rochelle, tout en ayant commerces/restaurants à côté. Nombreuses places de parking gratuit. Le wifi fonctionne très bien sauf en fin de soirée quand il y a du monde de connecté, cela devient plus lent. Distributeurs 24/24 en salle de réception. ____________________ EN RÉSUMÉ ---------- Il s'agit sans doute d'un très bon choix pour un hôtel de bonne qualité, pas trop cher, dans une grande zone commerciale, et pas trop loin de La Rochelle. Pur standard B&R mais c'est propre et les chambres sont climatisées. Très bon petit déjeuner. Petite faiblesse côté wifi.

Kyriad is a fairly new hotel chain, until recently represented only in France. The price is higher than F1, where I usually settle, but closer to the center. Since I booked shortly before the trip, there were no cheap options, so we ended up here. Moreover, I have already stayed at Kyriad before. In addition to a good location, it should be noted a comfortable room with a classic design in muted tones, a TV, a spacious bathroom. There really is no refrigerator, if anyone cares. There is a vending machine with drinks and snacks downstairs.
