Detailed Reviews
A small, basic hotel to stop when you are traveling further than Bordeaux. Free parking, great wifi and friendly staff. Small rooms, but clean. The hotel information was all in French, which was not very handy, but staff spoke English. I would not stay longer than 2 nights due to the location (bit of a drive to the centre of Bordeaux)

Needed a hotel near Bordeaux airport at the end of a trip and was not looking forward to an 'airport location' hotel and when arriving the location and the building itself did not encourage.
However - the staff were extemely helpful and friendly.
The room was bland but clean and the bathroom a good size.
AND the food and wine was first rate, actually it was so good it was a shock - althought perhaps it shouldn't have been in view of the number of French guests.
Would definitely use it again.

One of many airport hotels, this one was so-so. In retrospect, it was not a good choice. It had a restaurant of sorts (it was okay but not particularly good -- we should have driven around to find a real restaurant), but the air conditioning unit in our room (#2) kept throwing out heat regardless of what we or the night manager did. So we had to open the windows and listen to cars and trucks off and on. It was inexpensive (weekend rate of 56 euros). It was a forgettable place.

We are driving from northern france to portugal. We had a frustrating and stressful time in the vendee where there are very few functioning hotels and the one we found would not accept our charming dog. Arriving in Bordeaux we were delight to find this hotel. Although we arrived late the staff were very welcoming. They kept the kitchen open for us and while we enjoyed a tasty meal the receptionist entertained our dog. They put us in a comfortable room next to the side exit so it was easy to walk the dog any time. Altogether a lovely end to an otherwise tedious day!

Hotel has very nice swimming pool area and lovely restaurant terrace. Breakfast time from 6 tp 9.30 on weekdays.

The hotel is located in Merignac, close to Bordeaux airport.
Hotel is clean and ok overall, just the price for a night and a simple dinner during the week of 110 euros I find it too much for the quality offered.
In the room there's not a plug close to bed, nowadays we all have several phones to charge... The bathroom has not a light button on the entrance but you need find it entering in it close to mirror. Original thing!
Staff on the other hand is very nice and helpful.

We only stayed 1 night at the hotel whilst travelling through France to the Ferry Port. We found it to be ideally located just off the motorway but in a nice suburban area. The staff were very friendly and helpful. On their advice we caught a bus from a nearby bus stop and, for 1.5 euros, travelled into the centre of the city where we enjoyed a great evening.

A single night stay before driving further into wine country.
First impressions were that the hotel is a little dated and has the feel of an 80's 'Days inn' or 'Travel lodge'. However, the welcome was friendly and accommodating, the rooms clean and comfortable, parking was plentiful, plus there were always sunbeds available at the private pool.
We had a very pleasant stay and would happily visit again.
