Aquitaine Cheap Holidays

Good location, however aircon in the building is poor in all rooms. Restaurant was also only limited to Pizza only when I arrived

Comfortable and lovely

The property offered a nice bar with good happy hour and it was attached to a restaurant. Our room was nice and clean with good air conditioning. I’m not sure if it was because we had traveled so much by the time we reached Bordeaux, or for another reason, but Bordeaux seemed tired, expensive, and dreary. The area of the hotel is excellent because it’s only about 15 minutes walk to the shopping and museum areas. When we woke and looked for a small café in the morning, we realized many are not open until after 9 AM. This is French culture, but as travelers, we wanted caffeine earlier in the morning. We did find a few nice small bars in the area and enjoyed afternoon drinks. We appreciated the small bodegas that were close-by for water, fruit, and snacks. Parking was around the corner from the hotel. Parking was safe and priced fairly. The staff at the hotel described the parking as being “not attached to the hotel.” However, we found a route inside the parking ramp that was an easy route into the hotel -entering along the terrace adjacent to the hotel’s café and bar. Otherwise we would have difficulty carrying our bags into the hotel because at the front door, there are stairs leading to the lobby level. In May 2025 road outside the hotel was under construction. We speak basic French. (That helped a lot when checking in because in Bordeaux there are not as many fluent English speakers). The staff here were patient and helpful.

Negatives : Stayed in a terrace room, had a quiet room on the back however the grounds / landscaping needed some attention as overgrown with weeds. There is also no lighting on the terrace making it difficult to sit out there once it went dark ( we like to play cards at night). The bar was also closed for 2 of our 3 nights for no known reason which is not expected in an expensive hotel. Positives : staff are excellent, hotel is well maintained, close to the old town 15 mins walk and excellent location for the tram into the centre or to the airport. Would stay here again.

Plenty of counter space. Poor wifi signal. Kitchenette was completely equipped. Cozy balcony view. Maybe it was a fluke, but the apartment floor was a little sticky. Having laundry facility within the hotel is very convenient. Laundry room could use more washers/dryers, or at least have machine take non-token payment forms. Location: Lots of grocery stores nearby. Signage was very good. I had no difficulty finding the hotel. Staff: Friendly staff.
