Reviews for ROC Hôtel
Review 1:Very expensive area of France.
Review 2:Very near to sea front, within easy walking distance of several cafes and restaurants. Breakfast very good. Heard the Dunes nearby was worth a visit but didn't make it.
Review 3:The hotel has an attached restaurant in which the service was very poor. This is at great variation with the hotel where all was fantastic.
Review 4:Great hotel in the centre of the town and near the beach, harbour and a short stroll from the train station. Very helpful staff, functional clean room, good shower, great breakfast. We recommend it.
Review 5:Room air conditioning didn't work for 24 hours and internet connection sporadic. No tea/coffee facility in the room.
Review 6:Good breakfast and friendly staff
Review 7:If you were willing to pay a little extra for breakfast, it was very good. Nice location from the train station and easy to find. It was very clean.
Review 8:nothing at all!
Review 9:central location; friendliness of staff; reserved parking; restaurant. We spent the weekend in ROC Hotel to celebrate a special birthday with friends, the seafood we had in the brasserie was truly exceptional in quality and great value for money.
Review 10:Staff of the hotel wasn't really nice. We lost there something (it fell down from the balcony) and the staff wasn't willing to help us to find it.
Review 11:Nice place, clean room.
Review 12:Very few parking spaces at the hotel and streets around the hotel were expensive to park. Found free parking behind the train station about 15 mins walk away
Review 13:Extra bedding. Towels for the beach. Air conditioning. Balcony. Easy walk to shops, restaurants, beach and ferry to Points across the Basin. Breakfast good and tables available in the garden.
Review 14:really expensive Not clean at all! It looks like an abandoned building No minibar AC not working Had to wait 30 minutes for my room to be ready Bad experience overall
Review 15:Decent breakfast Good location
Review 16:Rooms were dated and bizarrely located up and down a series of stairs - weird. Bedrooms had unpleasant enough décor and layout - bathroom however was state of the art. Staff were pleasant enough but I felt it was overpriced for what we have had in terms of accommodation at other locations en route.
Review 17:As other reviews have said, some of the furnishing is a bit dated. However it is clean. One point - there is limited hotel parking which was full when we booked. The public parking is very expensive.
Review 18:Excellent location in the heart of the town. Really good value especially over the holiday weekend when it was very busy. Would recommend the breakfast.
Review 19:Bedroom very tired and dated. Very dusty. Toilet brush was filthy. Noisy every morning at 5.30 with casino across the road taking out the rubbish.
Review 20:Entrance and brasserie were lovely. Location very central. Very polite and helpful staff.
Review 21:The only problem we had was the parking for our car. It is quite expensive to park anywhere near the hotel and there were only two parking spaces for the hotel.
Review 22:We liked the big bed, the super breakfast and the closeness to all the local aminities.
Review 23:No tea making facilities. Poor access to parking. Wifi difficult to operate although offered.
Review 24:Location of hotel. Near to beach and restaurants. Friendly staff. Good choice of breakfast facility. Price good for shoulder season but not good value for high season
Review 25:Reserved parking bay, I had to mount an extremely high kerb to get access at a very dangerous T Junction. Not recommended.
Review 26:Location was very good and excellent value for money.
Review 27:evening diners on the back terrace seem to be forgotten- oily fried chunks of potatoes are not chips it may be worth investing in a second coffee machine for busy times at breakfast
Review 28:central situation was ideal- relative quietness, apart from next door workers daytime- steady and friendly work by housemaids- bread and pastries at breakfast were really fresh
Review 29:One morning, at breakfast, they ran out of bread and coffee. Sorry to mention it, but in a Republic that starts on coffee and croissants, I'm glad that the death penalty is forbidden to EU member states.
Review 30:Lovely staff and straight down the road from the station. Superb restaurant, excellent food and service with 10% off for guests.
Review 31:I had trouble connecting to internet, too much information had to be provided before logging on. Difficult!
Review 32:Great location right in middle of Arcachon and easy to find and park.
Review 33:Bar area could be a bit more appealing (the pool table in the middle seemed a bit out of place). Small amount of noise from bin men in the morning but nothing much.
Review 34:Very well placed near the Casino and beach at 2 mins walk. Comfortable room, renovated with new double glazing, even if the cupboards and doors are in old-fashioned wood, corridors well furnished. Reception pleasant and efficient, breakfast fine.
Review 35:Could have used a little updating, carpet and walls were dark.
Review 36:Location was nice, staff was friendly. Rooms were clean. Couldn't hear a lot noise in the hallways.
Review 37:An excellent breakfast with helpful friendly staff, the only small problem we encountered, the soap dispenser over the shower hadn't been refilled, was dealt with promptly and courteously even though it was 8pm.
Review 38:car parking was a little difficult One lady behind the desk was not very helpful but other staff were fine
Review 39:room was comfortable and bed supportive. Meal in brasserie excellent Central location
Review 40:Parking was a small problem during the day, but further along the road we could park for free.
Review 41:Position of hotel was very good, on the road behind the hotels on front. Shops and restaurants were close by and very easy to walk to the beautiful miles of beach and promenade with many good restaurants.
Review 42:The bathroom was small and very dated, and although the Hotel had a bar there was very often no staff to serve drinks.
Review 43:The location was excellant and the room was clean and a reasonable size.
Review 44:No hairdryer no safe very noisy emptying bottle banks etc, but same for everyone in street. No one on réception after 10 pm had to use another door. Not 3 star quality.
Review 45:Well placed for centre And beach
Review 46:1. After taking the shower in the bath all floor is in water - bad shower blind
Review 47:1. Good location (all you need is near - seafront, cafe, restaurants, shops, train station, bus station, car rent) 2. Good hotel restaurant 3. Clean room, linen 4. Good breakfast
Review 48:Rooms in old section small, dark (walls clad in dark brown 'wood') and NO balcony. Rooms in new section have balconies overlooking garden. Seating was 2 bar stools and bar table! Reception/bar not as photo.
Review 49:Well priced compared to other hotels Convenient for beach and town Breakfast in courtyard pleasant
Review 50:Wifi required you to log in through a complicated process each day, restaurant wasn't great.
Review 51:Close to beach (one street back), staff were helpful and nice, rooms were clean. Basically it is a lower mid range hotel that does the job it promises to do.
Review 52:Housekeeping was almost non extistant. We had to make our bed every day Bathroom was never cleaned. One day we had to find clean towels as non were given. We would have stayed elsewhere if we could have. The garden consists of a few chairs out the back, not a garden in our view. I would not recommend this hotel.
Review 53:Location was good. Breakfast very good value.
Review 54:Registration for free wi-fi is complicated and I'm not sure that all my details are really required by law. In other hotels you just get a password and use it. Also, you have to re-enter you details, as the system does not remember your devices.
Review 55:Close to the beach and the train station - location is perfect. Nearby one can find nice restaurants, cafés, a supermarket, it's easy to get to the centre and the hotel is in the middle of all transport routs. It's comfortable and the staff are friendly.
Review 56:Excellent location (close to the train station, restaurants, shops, seaside, port of Arcachon, etc.) Quiet hotel Large & comfortable bed Helpfull & friendly staff Everything you need for a couple of nights.
