Our take
Hôtel La Monnaie Arty & Spa combines a 17th-century building by the old harbour with a collection of contemporary art, a terrace, a wellness centre on request and rooms facing a courtyard or the old fortifications. A 9.0 score from about 2,200 reviews is excellent. Parking on site is limited, so arriving by train or reserving a space makes sense. I would choose it for a special weekend in La Rochelle.
- ✓Book a room with views of the old city for a truly immersive experience of La Rochelle's history.
- ✓Make sure to request access to the wellness centre in advance to secure your relaxation time.
- ✓Explore the old harbour and city fortifications on foot, as the hotel's central location makes it very convenient.
