Hotel Details

Location

Set in Bordeaux's Golden Triangle, this hotel is a 1-minute walk from Tram Line B and within easy walking distance of luxury shops, the Grand Théâtre, and the historic centre.
The hotel sits in the heart of the Golden Triangle, an upscale district of wide boulevards, designer boutiques, and cafés. The Grand Théâtre is a few minutes on foot, and the Place des Quinconces - with its monument and tram connections - is equally close. Tram Line B stops directly outside, while Line C at Quinconces provides a direct route to Gare Saint-Jean (3 km, about 10 minutes by tram). Bus 1 from the airport also serves the area. Almost every major sight, restaurant, and market is reachable on foot, making this a highly walkable base. For drivers, the nearest covered public parking (100 m) requires a walk, and the property's narrow historic streets can be busy, but the location's convenience for exploring the city centre without a car is the primary advantage.

Dining

A buffet breakfast is served each morning in the breakfast room or can be enjoyed in guest rooms; it includes a variety of breads, pastries, cheese, cold cuts, yoghurt, fruit, and hot drinks.
Breakfast is available for an additional charge of €10 per person and is offered as a continental/hotel buffet. The selection typically includes bread, pastries, cheese, ham, eggs, yoghurt, fruit compote, fresh fruit, hot drinks, and juices - a generous range for a property of this size. Gluten-free bread is available on request. The breakfast room seats 14 and can also be used as a small meeting space. There is no restaurant or bar on site, so lunch and dinner need to be taken elsewhere. The immediate neighbourhood has a variety of dining options within a 5-minute walk, including Japanese, sushi, bistros, and cafés.

Wellness and Leisure

The hotel does not have a spa, swimming pool, or gym; leisure activities centre on the immediate city-centre attractions.
No wellness facilities are provided - no pool, spa, or fitness room. The property's appeal for leisure stays is entirely its position within walking distance of Bordeaux's historic sites, museums, shopping streets, and public squares. Cycling is noted as an activity available off-site, and the hotel offers secure bicycle storage (in a locked room) for those exploring the city by bike.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, free daily housekeeping, free luggage storage, and self-service late check-in are available; no on-site parking or airport shuttle is offered.
Internet is free throughout the property. Daily housekeeping is included at no extra charge. Luggage can be stored free of charge on the first floor, both before check-in and after check-out. Check-in is possible after 20:00 via a self-service key pick-up arrangement; the hotel will prepare the room key and entrance door code in advance - this must be confirmed by phone with the property. Express check-in/check-out and private check-in/check-out are available. A fax/photocopying service is offered for an additional charge. A 24-hour security system (CCTV, fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, security alarm) is in place. The property is adults-only, non-smoking throughout, and no pets are allowed. No airport shuttle is provided; the most economical way to reach the airport is Bus 1 from a nearby stop.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Check-in is possible after 20:00 via a self-service key pick-up; confirm your late arrival with the hotel in advance to ensure your key and door code are prepared.

  • 02

    No air conditioning is available - fans are provided but may not suffice above 35 °C; avoid booking during heatwaves if cool sleeping conditions are essential.

  • 03

    Request a room away from the street and on a lower floor (rooms start on level 2) if noise from outside or other rooms affects your sleep.

  • 04

    Use the tram stop 1 minute away (Tram Line B) and Bus 1 from the airport to avoid driving, as the hotel has no parking and relies on a paid public garage 100 m away.
