I checked-in late at night so I didn't interact with anyone, I used the machine. It was efficient. The room and bathroom were small but as it was a 1 night stay before catching an early flight, it was enough. Parking is small but it looks like it's safe to park outside too.

Rooms are compact (aka cramped) with small bathroom but are ok for one night. Room seems designed for solo occupant and comes with only one towel. Breakfast is typical and not bad but the coffee in machine is terrible - dark, bitter syrup instead of ground beans. The problems are air conditioning and internet - both of which are intermittent. The office controls the a/c and even though we were in our room, the office switched it off at least three times. The phone to reception was not answered but if we went in person to reception the a/c was switched back on without comment. The internet connection is very fragile and needs logging back in every few minutes and needs password every time - it doesn’t remember you. There is a row of hotels in this location near the airport, of which The Originals is the cheapest. Turns out there’s a reason. Don’t think we’ll be back.

Booked a comfort room as we knew this was a budget hotel, however photo of room looked fine. However room was tiny, not a bit like the photo. Bathroom minuscule. Breakfast was poor, even when a fresh tray of croissants were brought out they were cold. Receptionist had to check out guests, man breakfast, and look after a new team member. Being an airport hotel not the best representation France, Only saving grace was that Au Bureau restaurant was within walking distance.

The hotel isn't in a great location for Bordeaux, unless you're just in and out of the airport overnight. It's really just a middle-of-nowhere, highway motel/inn. The room stunk. The air conditioner existed.. but was of no use. The bathroom was too small to move around in.. there were no extra pillows (denied when called and requested). Etc. Etc. Wouldn't recommend.

Not bad for the night. Good breakfast spread.

This hotel is more like a motel. Nothing bad in that. We chose this because it’s very near the airport which was an important consideration since we were arriving late, and won’t be able to pick up our car rental until the next day. Also, we always liked that even if the gate is closed at night, there was always somebody to open up for us and receive us for a late check in; for this visit we arrived past midnight. The room is small, but clean. Also it’s true that sound insulation needs to be improved but it’s ok if you’re gone for most of the day and use it only for sleeping (when everyone else in the building is also sleeping). Breakfast is available for an extra fee—now this is really nice, very convenient. Will book again.

Good Stopover

We used this Hotel because we had an early flight the next morning. I would only recommend for this type of use. The Hotel was clean although the room smelled a bit musty when we arrived. On arrival the receptionist tried to insist that breakfast was included and, needless to say, added 16€ on to our bill. When I pointed this out it was quickly changed. The room itself is very small but I have to say the soundproofing was great until 4am when we were woken by the squeakiest door I have ever heard. Our exit was hampered by the security gate which the overnight receptionist did not know was down ! All in all, reasonable value for an overnight stay.

OK for one night stay

Stayed fro two nights as it was near the airport and on a good route into Bordeaux. Rooms are quite noisy if neighbours are a bit loud (first night) and if people are staying in rooms above (walkway noise). No real air traffic noise, although you can hear planes arriving and taking off but they do not disturb too much (no flights over night). Reception staff were excellent and helpful. The room was basic. There were no tea/coffee making facilities, even though one of the photos shows kettles etc. The bed was king size and comfortable. The shower was good except that the water did run into the toilet area which meant if you needed to sit on it you would get wet clothes! I can't fathom why the screens did not reach to the bottom of the floor instead of about 25cm above it! Breakfast was adequate buffet style (good cold meats, tasteless cheese, cook your own eggs, cereals, yoghurt, fruit, bread etc). All in all, I probably would only stay for one night (either after late flight in; or for early flight out) in the future. A big pro is that it is on a very good bus route, both to the airport and to Bordeaux centre (all for 1E 60c). There is also a very good brasserie nearby (Au Bureau).

Budget size but 5 star service

Absolute bargain for an over night before flying home.
Room was plenty big enough for one night with storage and a compact wet room en-suite. Bed comfortable and room quiet with air con. Upgrade to get tea and coffee making (extra £6) and reception will happily top up your supplies and provide you with milk.
Breakfast well worth it - unlimited and a selection of cold meat and cheese, cereal, pastries, bread, fruits and you can boil your own egg! We walked to the airport from here - took about 20 mins with two bags each, or can do 1 stop on the bus. Car park got very full; if you are parking here get here early.

Very friendly, clean and efficient. Will use again as all in was £33 each with breakfast.
