L'Esprit du 8 is excellently located in the heart of Rochefort so that you can do everything on foot. It has been renovated in a really tasteful and interesting style, with a lot of thought given to details which give it real character. Our room was large and very comfortable and also quiet despite being on the street side of the building. Sandrine and Pascal were really welcoming and they create a very relaxed atmosphere - it felt almost like staying with friends - whilst still being very professional. We had problems with our car while we were there and they went out of the way to help us sort things out. Breakfast was excellent with different types of local cakes and pastries to try each day and there were also good quality tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Nothing at all

We really loved this beautiful, comfortable accommodation. Sandrine & Pascal are fabulous, friendly hosts and welcomed us into their spectacular home. The rooms are very stylish and spacious. Everything is to a very high standard. The breakfasts were delicious and fresh. Both Sandrine & Pascal were very helpful with recommendations for the area and restaurants. Pascal kindly carried a heavy suitcase up the stairs. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay.

The location of the large property was ideal and the attentiveness of the hosts, Sandrine and Pascal, second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and they enhanced our enjoyment of the area which was new to us. Clearly they take pride in their home and the historic nature of the building. The garden and pool were lovely to return to each evening. Breakfast was excellent and just what we needed.

Everything exceeded expectations.

Sandrine and Pascal are the kindest hosts. Beautifully decorated and styled Boutique type hotel. Fantastic breakfast which we had in the garden. Easy Parking on their own premises, EV charging facilities at walking distance. Both fast charging at 35KW and 22KW. The hotel is very centrally located and nice restaurants are just a few minutes walking away. Ile D’Oleron and Fouras a short drive by car with their beautiful beaches.

No airconditioning.

Luxury, romantic get away. Pascal and Sandrine go above and beyond to make sure you have what you need. Super bathroom in-French large bed with linnen bedding. And the new and classic designs. On near walking distance to the towns centre on a quiet street and a short drive to the beach.

Nothing!!!

A beautifully restored public building, repurposed as a bespoke guest house. Lovely period features and an Art Deco theme with lots of interesting touches throughout the house. Off road, private parking, a tranquil walled garden with swimming pool and easy walking distance to all Rouen’s amenities. The owners, Pascal and Sandrine were very welcoming and attentive and were able to offer ideas for dining out and sightseeing during our stay.

Be aware that the signage for the property is very discreet, but Google Maps took us to the door - it’s just not obvious.

We spent a night at L'Esprit du 8 on our way to Northern Spain and received a warm and friendly welcome from our hosts Sandrine and Pascal, who went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and interesting. The property is cool and spacious with its own interesting history, and the lovely garden was the perfect place for our generous breakfast the following morning. Sandrine and Pascal sent us an online guide to Rochefort before our arrival which was a nice touch and extremely helpful for us, allowing us to book a restaurant for dinner in advance. L'Esprit du 8 is a gem - we were sorry our stay was so short and would love to return. Sincere thanks to Sandrine and Pascal!

Wonderful house with interesting interior design. Great attention to detail. Person attention from the owners. Good location with easy access to town and it's attractions. Very secure private parking.

Nothing to dislike. I would stay again if at all possible.

Close to the town. Lovely comfortable room, very spacious with a good size bed and bathroom. There is a little fridge downstairs with drinks you can help yourself too and write down what you have taken for billing which isnt mentioned but we thought was lovely. Breakfast is great. The owner loves his cars so lots to talk about with my husband, overall very accommodating and plenty of good recommendations in the local area.

It’s like being home. Intimate welcoming atmosphere. Sandrine and Pascal who own the place are wonderful people. Breakfast was fantastic.
