No replacement towels, and no hand towel or washcloths. And you get 1 roll of toilet paper, then you have to buy it yourself. Having said that, the front desk staff was very helpful, when they were present. And it is only 1 block to the beach. If you have a larger rental car, beware of the enclosed parking spaces...

"Excellent front desk staff, very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and bed and pillows very comfortable. Nice size suite with lots of storage space. Breakfast was a very nice surprise, more than your standard continental. Best thing of all was the location. Right in the middle of the city centre; easy walking to loads of restaurants and shops. Would definitely recommend this property."

"Très beau séjour d'une nuit à l'hôtel BG de Bordeaux. Le personnel est très sympathique et serviable. La décoration est superbe, l'ambiance est très cozy. On s'y sent comme chez soi. Le petit-déjeuner est excellent avec du choix pour tous les goûts. Si vous cherchez un endroit agréable à Bordeaux, je vous le recommande fortement. L'hôtel est situé directement face à une station de tramway et à environ 5 minutes de marche de la gare Saint-Jean. Les chambres sont petites, donc si vous avez besoin d'espace, ce n'est probablement pas le meilleur choix. Par contre, si vous cherchez un endroit avec une belle ambiance, du personnel plus que sympathique, de la propreté, bien situé, et que la dimension de la chambre ne vous importe pas, c'est un excellent choix ! Mention spéciale à la gentille Béatrice à la réception 👌❤️. J'y retournerai lors d'un futur séjour à Bordeaux, assurément !"

"Good location. Reception is top floor which wasn’t terribly convenient. Have to pre book parking. I tried but got no response and ended up parked on the street 500m away. Weird spacecraft-style door to the equally strange bathroom and door wouldn’t close properly. Air con didn’t work but they brought us a fan. Can’t get to a bathroom on arrival without key access to a ‘public’ area so if you’ve travelled far stop at services or use airport bathrooms! Bed quite comfy. Breakfast good. Nice views. Nice area to relax and look out from 9th floor at the city. On reflection our overall 4 stars is generous."
