first of all very great staff and very friendly with great English. We hv free crissant available (time to time) as well as wster refill, and mint water too! secondly, ver excellent location, cannot beat this, 5 mins to Gambetta square where along that 5 mins walk to Gambetta there are many high end stores like louis vuitton, hermes, lancet, etc. as well as lical leather made, there is also a BK Burger King is at the corner there. Majestic but very old Cathedral St Andre is about 7 mins walk. Rue Catherine shopping, the longest pedestrian stores in France... about 15 minn walk. The road (rue temple) in front of the hotel is not accessible by car, and either the next wide road at the end of rue temple where thr trams are passing by, this is just 3 minutes from hotel. The hotel it self is a renovated 200 year old building, very beautifully snd neatly done! Huge white blocks of stones are visible on the wall, especially around a beautiful stair case. The room is not big but enough for both of us, great shower room good size 2x4 ft with both rain head and handheld shower head! , bed, room light is good too, etc.

Beautiful city - great hotel
Lovely hotel. We were upgraded to a deluxe comfort room. Check in was easy and staff very helpful. The rooms were clean and well decorated, comfortable beds and air conditioning too! Bordeaux is a beautiful city. Driving around isn’t easy as it’s mostly pedestrianised but the staff in the hotel were very helpful with directions and maps and we received discounted parking locally, with our stay. Family friendly - yes.
