Some Kinks, but Worth the Money

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 26 Aug 2024
We stayed in a King bed corner room suite on the 1st floor. There is lots of room to move around as well as lots of windows and light, but the windows would only open a few inches due to a cord locking across them. It's understandable, because the building across the street is mostly abandoned and inhabited by pigeons, so the lock is probably to prevent the birds from flying into the room, but it really bugged me, because I would have loved to throw open the windows and enjoy the city's ambience. Additionally, the bathroom set up was weird. The toilet next was separated from the shower and sink by a wall, and you had to go around the king-size bed to get to it! The room is situated on the main drag - St. Catherine St. - so there are restaurants and shops galore just steps away. Fortunately, the soundproofing is excellent and the bed is extremely comfortable. Breakfast was great, lots of variety, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. There is an English TV channel - CNN. We paid $270 USD per night, which included breakfast.

I had a very enjoyable three night stay here. Location is excellent, easily reachable from the airport with the tram. The main sights are close by, with just Cite du Vin requiring a tram ride.

My room on the fourth floor was clean with a comfortable bed and great shower. I was happy to see it had a Nespresso machine. The buffet breakfast included everything you could expect. All staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

This lovely hotel is in the perfect location for exploring beautiful Bordeaux. Although the hotel is located just by the busy Rue St Catherine shopping street, our room was extremely quiet. We stayed in a large triple room with a king size bed and a sofa bed, both were very comfortable.
The room was spacious, modern and very clean. The air conditioning worked really well, which was appreciated in August. The large floor to ceiling windows looked down onto the hustle and bustle of Rue St Catherine. The room was light and airy and very comfortable.
I requested a quiet room on a lower floor, which the hotel provided, which we appreciated and we will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.
The coffee maker & small fridge were very useful and we appreciated the free bottle of water in the room each day.
The hotel staff were helpful and took care of our luggage before and after check in and check out.
The only negative issue was that we noticed an odour of ‘drains’ in the bathroom every afternoon and the shower pressure wasn’t the best. The bathroom was very spacious with a shower cubicle and separate bath, which were very clean. We kept the door closed so the drain smell did not enter the bedroom.
We did notice the ‘drain’ odour when we were out and about walking around in Bordeaux from time to time, so perhaps the old buildings don’t have the best plumbing, I don’t know. I did mention it to the front desk once we checked out, so that they could look into it.
Apart from that, we really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning.

We stayed three nights. The hotel is located in a quiet street near the Rue Sainte-Catherine, a major shopping area in downtown Bordeaux. Excellent transportation is available with tram lines and buses nearby and also several restaurants and bars are within walking distance.

Our room was spacious, quiet and clean. The bathroom was not very modern with a bath tub and the drain was in need of a cleaning. The room was well equipped with a/c, safe, a fridge with bottled water and a coffee maker and housekeeping was very good.

Breakfast was included in our rate and was very good with items of high quality and great service by the team members. To our taste the temperature in the breakfast room was too cold for comfort which was not so nice, and we had to dress warmly to enjoy our breakfast.

All in all we had a pleasant stay at the hotel.

Comfy double room right in the center of everything! 5 min walk from the tram stop from the airport too. We had no issues, room was cleaned and tidied daily, pillows and bed was very very comfortable.

One issue is they talk about sustainability on leaflets in the room however they put two plastic bottles of water in the mini fridge and replace both daily. This is conflicting with the advice regarding towel use and saving water. Please consider to install a filtered tap downstairs to allow guests to refill their water and save single use waste.

Booked my travel through corporate travel system (concur). All systems go, but when I arrived after a red eye from the states and a delayed flight from CDG, the hotel had canceled my booking. They say they contacted me but I have no record of any contact and Amex/Concur folks said it was still a live booking when they looked at it after the hotel told me it was canceled.

It may be a fine hotel, but I’ll never know as I’m staying for a week of work about a mile further from where I wanted to be due to this screw-up.

Room tip: Make sure to triple confirm your booking so you don’t end up like me. It showed active in concur and in the Choice rewards app.
