Great location close to the train station but only a short walk to the bustle of the city (and there's a tram stop right outside!) Breakfast was delicious too, huge variety. The front desk kindly let us have a later check out as we were catching a 2pm train.

Lauren United States of America

The staff were really pleasant to interact with, in particular Erwann and the breakfast staff. The breakfast itself was definitely above the average found in France, as most locations we've visited ended up offering a "Continental" type breakfast only. We didn't get many chances to interact with the Reception staff other than Imade, who was exceptional, but we appreciate the upgrade provided by the team.

Luís Portugal

Breakfast was great, room is clean and spacious. Area was quiet and near to everything. Staff were so kind and accommodating. Especially Dao who was very during our whole stay.

Neil Philippines

Welcoming staff, good location and great breakfast. This hotel if the perfect base to explore Bordeaux and around.

Urtravelbuddy France

Staff good: breakfast very acceptable. Very clean. So comfortable.

Chris United Kingdom

Lovely friendly staff. Esoecially Dao. All very eager to help. Breakfast was an amazing choice!! Best ive had in 3 weeks travelling. Hotel has tram stop 100 metres from front door. Great access to centre of Bordeaux. Also walking distance or one tram away from gare st jean main railway station. Fabulous beds too

Karen Ireland

Very friendly and professional staff, it was my birthday and we got a free room upgrade which was very nice of them! hotel itself was great and good location as well thank you!

Ekatherina Spain

Definitely worth mentioning the amazing breakfast spread!! Rarely see such an amazing variety. Quite a nice restaurant setting as well. Our room was clean and comfortable. Location for a one night stay was fine, great to have parking (£14) so we didn’t have to worry at all about our car. For a longer stay probably would have been better to be in an area with a bit more character, but there was still a lovely little restaurant area very close by (recommended Au Bistrot for dinner!).

Elizabeth Australia

Positives: coffee facility in room. Hotel is close to train station. Tram stops nearby to get to town. Breakfast just okay. Staff very helpful.

Vito United Kingdom

excellent position. across the road from the tram which is incredibly easy, 5 mins from the station, supermarket round the corner and plenty of restaurants in a short walk staff very helpful, Dao in particular I particularly liked the scheme the hotel offers regarding room cleaning. if you don’t want your room cleaned etc tell them the night before and you will be given voucher for a glass of wine each. great idea. no one needs their room cleaning everyday! totally unnecessary in todays world. more hotels should adopt this
