The hotel is overall nice - nice building and service. However, it is not disclosed during the booking that they charge extra €25 for using their SPA and you’ll have to book in advance. Also the showeroom in the room is transparent so if you’re travelling with you friend, it’s a bit embarrassing

Really stylish hotel, with a beautiful terrace restaurant, friendly staff, close to lots of good restaurants and an easy walk to the centre of Bordeaux. I think they may have taken the minimalist theme a bit far but this was fine for us for the few days we were there (nowhere to put toiletries in the bathroom, no door to the shower which made it quite cold, and the floors were very slippery)

Only problem is the shower area which has transparent glass around it, and so you can easily be seen by people looking into the room from outside. Also not great when you have your daughter and son staying together in one room as we had. A bit of a design flaw.

For a 4 star accommodation I expected so much more , help with the luggage upon entrance would be helpful and a thorough introduction of the services and amenities by the FO staff , I went in the room and didnt know how to find the room numbers til i looked down and saw on the floor , they didnt tell how to contact the FO for any questions, let alone a briefing on how to turn on the lights. Tired from a trip , i would have expected a 4 star to be easy to settle in . Location is also a bit unsafe for its price , staff at the restaurant was good and the food as well.

Really nice hotel, friendly staff. We were travelling by train hotel really close to station, About 30 minute walk to city centre, although not an issue for us as we like to walk and see the city and there is plenty to see whilst walking, if you don’t want to walk excellent tram service 2 streets over. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic converted building
We had a lovely stay here. The décor is brilliant being converted from a former university zoology building. Breakfast is buffet style with a great selection. We had one meal in the restaurant also which was extremely good. Our room did not have a balcony but there was a shared terrace just outside our door which we sat and ate breakfast on a couple of mornings. The staff speak good English and were happy to help with any questions we had. There is a fixed rate taxi service to the airport if booked through reception which was handy with a 7am flight back!

I loved my stay at the hotel. Super friendly staff, I felt really well taken care of and the property itself is unique. This might be one of the best places I have stayed. Some of the fasciitis’s were a new experience to me and it’s definitely worth trying it out. Unfortunately I didn’t have the time to try out the spa but the ambiance of the hotel is so serene it almost feels like a spa :)
