Big old hotel on the sandy beach front. Ideal if you want a swim or paddle. Staff speak good English and happy to help. No parking, although not a problem off season. Let us park our bikes I their function room for security. Whilst no restaurant plenty to choose from nearby.

We stayed three nights at this hotel on the top floor directly overlooking the 400metre cove -affording great relaxation and a blessing in poor weather to watch and hear the breaking waves . An idylic location in the off peak season on the western fringe of Royan, away from the commercial centre. Just a stroll to a choice of restuarants.... More

This hotel is awful, its in desperate need of refurbishment, the curtain pole in our room was tied to the pipes going up the wall. The furniture is mismatched, the pipes make a noise in the bathroom and it smells. Our daughters in the next room had hairs in their bath!! The room next door had been taped up by... More
