Good hotel near the old centre though tucked behind a very ugly couple of 60s buildings. 12 minute walk to the cathedral.
Breakfast was good, though the room it is served in lacked natural light or character.
Fitness centre was too small to use, but Basic Fit 6 mins away offers a day pass for €11.99 and is very well equipped.
Room very nice and staff lovely. Decent hotel bar too.

Awesome hotel. Helpful staff. Everything was great, but two things: the breakfast buffet eggs are just warm, not hot, and the bacon undercooked. The rest of the breakfast is impressive...they just need a couple of adjustments. The other thing is that while the air conditioning in the room is great during the day, it seems to be less good during the night, making our sleep hot and uncomfortable. I'm guessing they are doing some cost-saving at night. Not good in a heatwave.

- one of the ugliest area of Bordeaux but close to everything.
- No clock in bedroom.
- No nightlight.
- Hair dryer has no ground pin and cannot be used in washroom.
- Lots of mold between the bath and the wall insert.
- Good paper tissues and toilet paper.

Staff are cheerful and helpful. Our room didn't have any coffee or tea and the staff bought that up immediately. The free water in the mini bar was not filled until the last day but we didn't realise we were supposed to have any until the other people we holidayed with mentioned it. Buffet breakfast was fantastic and had extensive choices. Overall, very clean and great location. Would stay again.

Bar hours not explained nor breakfast. It seemed as though staff was not trained except for the overnignt gentleman whom was very welcoming. Upon check out we were delayed even though I prepaid. Honestly it's about a 10 minute walk to the city, but the walk and area is a bit sketchy....I've traveled all over France and lived overseas and for sure this was probably my worst stay in a very long time. Beds were small and not comfortable.

Nice location a short walk from many bars and restaurants and the staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It said double on booking but was actually closer to a queen size. The bathroom in our room could use some updating and service. The electric plug was broken, and the shower didn’t drain. So I couldn’t take long showers or shave. they fixed the shower the next day but left the room smelling kind of sewery until we opened up the window for an hour or so. Still didn’t get a chance to shave since the plug never got fixed. Also the door to the bathroom was very loud when it closed.

3 girls visiting Bordeaux

The hotel was in the middel of major refurbishment which wasn't mentioned at the time of booking. The check in wasn't the best as I had the work experience guy but I realise everyone has to learn.
The room was quite cramped for the 3 freinds and therefore 3 beds we had in it and given that I'm sure the hotel wasn't fully booked or anything near it, I did think they might have offered us a larger room.
There was an American waitress in the restaurant who, when we arrived too late for breakfast (not having been told by the check in guy), was absolutely amazing. It wasn't until that point that I felt I was really having a 4* experience. She asked what we liked and brought to our room 2 trays laden with delicious breakfast items, with an absolutely perfect approach and attitide. I wish I had taken a note of her name - she was awesome.
Check out was also very good because we were only charged one breakfast fee for the breakfasts that were brought to our room, so I was really pleased about that. That was William and he was a 4* employee too.
I was a bit niggled about the carparking - we were told there were no spaces but that it was impossible to book - you just have to turn up and be lucky. But there were plenty of spaces when we parked in the adjacent public car park. It wasn't a disaster as we didn't have too much further to walk, but it was a niggle.
As you'd expect, the hotel is well placed for a walk into town and Bordeaux itself is absolutely lovely.

A nice hotel with a few nice ammenities for North American travellers (fridge in the room!) but with a few real issues. It's undergoing rennovations in the lobby, and there was construction noise in my room mid-day while working. It's also in a unique neighbourhood designed with _no_ ground level businesses or entrances, so coming home after dark can feel very spooky (and forget about popping by a store to get something for your room).

Perhaps the greatest issue was that we booked a three-single-bed-room, and instead got two single beds and a pull-out sofa bed with a worse mattress, and which crowded the space uncomfortably. Expedia often mentions when a room is 2 beds + sofa, but in this case it didn't and I felt the description was very misleading, and I was really disappointed in both the hotel and in Expedia for offering a service different than I'd paid for.

In short, it's a fine hotel with a number of issues and there's better for your money, and I wouldn't stay there again. .

It is not too far from centre (within 10-15mins walk you are in the city centre) and tram A is just 3-5 mins walk. The bus going to the airport (No1) stops just around the corner, also 3-5 mins walk.
