French Atlantic Coast Kid friendly Holidays

Loved everything ,from the staff to the facilities. Food and drinks were great and very affordable.

The hotel is to the North of Bordeaux city centre. It is few minutes walk to a tram stop for the C Tram line and a 20-25 min tram line into the city. The hotel pool is good with some sunbeds, and it’s open 11am-9pm with the hotel providing pool towels for free use. The bedroom on 6th floor look to have been recently refurbished and was comfortable. The hotel was let down by having not many staff to cover the bar during the day and reception. The breakfast buffet was basic, but there was staff replenishing regularly what was on offer. It was fine.

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.

In need of updating and refurbishing. No air conditioning and no fans made available.

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.
