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.

The staff have been wonderful. Helpful, professional and in most cases multilingual. Quick to check in and get to your room, excellent if you are tired from travel. This site has a secure area to leave your bags and cases if you are leaving later after your check out time and don't want to carry your bags all over Bordeaux. 20 minutes (max.) walk to centre of town on flat walkways. Safe? This site is directly across from the police station.

Not worth it

This is an old Novotel. It needs a lot of room renovations. For the price point I would not recommend this hotel. The location was decent, the staff was good. The breakfast had very poor selection. You can find much better hotels for a better price in Bordeaux.

Best staff ever

The staff here is amazing. I had a medical crisis while staying at the hotel and they helped me get assistance and took care of contacting the next place that I was supposed to stay at so that they knew I wouldn't be there. Once I am home, I will be writing to the corporate headquarters about the key members who helped me. Absolutely marvelous people. Also, the hotel was clean, quiet, and safe.

This hotel is in a great location. Very walkable to the city centre and very quiet at the same time. The staff is lovely. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. But the hotel is in need of some upgrades and refurbishing. We had to change rooms because the toilet in ours simply didn’t flush. We notified the staff after the first night (we devised a method of flushing using a bucket of water) but no one attended to it until the evening of our second day. No repair was possible so they moved us. Our second room was not nearly as nice, since it was a family room and the bed was very close to the wall to allow a cot to be used, but since the Olympics meant that all hotels were at or near capacity we knew there wasn’t much choice. At least we had a toilet that worked. Everything else was great. The breakfast was amazing with loads of choices and the lounge was very comfortable. I felt that we could have been offered some kind of compensation for our inconvenience but in new that staff was doing their best and didn’t want to create problems.
