Too expensive for what it was. Problems with WiFi. Problem with the water, there was none for about 30 minutes. Couldn’t feel the air con unless you were standing under it. Car parking was so tight it was hard to get out of the car.

Perfect situation. Great to spend the extra on a sea view room as it is so relaxingly time-wasting!
It is being renovated, will take some time but will be great once finished

The location was great.
Royan is a bit quiet in November. A lot of restaurants were shut.

This is a perfect location to get for a break away from routine. The rooms have lovely warm colours unlike most cold hotel rooms. You have the perfect view of the bay. The hotel is near many great restaurants and bars. We went in winter and the room was very warm. We could hear the waves crash on the shore in the evenings. Staff were very kind. Our room was well cleaned every morning.
The breakfast was average but really very good for a 3* hotel. The bathtub is small but again very good for a 3* hotel. TV channels limited but TV isn’t necessary when you have a beautiful ocean to visit. It’s difficult to complain to be honest! I’d stay there again if I visited Royan again.

Fabulous location and size of room
Signs posted all around the hotel saying quiet after 10.00 pm people next door were having a party, and the door to their room was opened and closed and slammed constantly. We tried to call reception after 2 hours but no reply.

Nice location, central and close to wine bar and many restaurants. Lovely view, well decorated lobby. Welcoming staff. The beds and bedding were very comfortable.
Bathroom looked a little dated, cables visible in the hall which spoilt the rest of the decor. Rooms are not soundproof.

Outstanding location. Sea view from room and breakfast room : super!
We parked on street without problem, but would probably prefer private parking on next visit.

The hotel is across the road from the beach so sea view rooms have a marvellous view, great to wake up to when you draw the curtains. The staff were all friendly and helpful, with a 24hr night porter for those returning later. Good continental buffet breakfast with the option of scrambled egg and bacon. Rooms spacious and clean with bath and over bath shower, all in good order.
The hotel is good value, with a prime location. Only two facilities lacking were a bar area to meet/wait for friends and a lack of dedicated parking., although there is a car park about 200m away.

Safe parking, for a small fee, very good reception, with a lift to upper floors. Location fantastic for the whole beachfront. Rooms exceptionally clean and comfortable. We didn't eat breakfast but it looked very good and varied.
Some side rooms have good sea views, some comfy couches in the reception hall if you want to sit and read a book on a sofa on some lazy afternoons.
Rooms at front and side can be a little noisy as traffic flow is continuous, air conditioning good as it could be too hot to open windows.

It was an attractive hotel, facing the beach..but our room was on the ground floor dark and gloomy..it must have been an office
The room was dark and gloomy you couldn't open curtains as it was overlooked..disappointing as they have a lift to upstairs where we could have got light ..parking in garage..make this s no unless you have a tiny car..its really difficult and 12 euros a complete rip off

The staff is very nice and have a good sense of humor.
The hotel needs some refreshing but they are working on it.
Air Conditionning, bathroom, windows are new.
A very charming atmosphere we definitely don’t find
in standard hotels groups.
Room furniture a little bit antiquited.over

The front desk staff were wonderful and very kind; we speak no French and they never made us feel that was a problem. The room was huge with a very large bathroom. We also loved the bakery adjoining the building, the beautiful empty beach across the street and the Italian Restuarant about four doors down. And there was elevator! There was nothing not to like about this hotel. We fell asleep listening to the ocean. Our favorite hotel on this 5 week road trip through France
There was nothing not to like. It was spotless clean and had amazing lobby carpeting

Location. Beds. Shower.
Cost of Breakfast was a rip off. Cost of dogs per night at 10 euros also a rip off. Expensive hotel need to look at cost of rooms!
