QUALITYHOTELBORDEAUXCENTRE,Bordeaux

Located in a 19th-century mansion near the lively Saint-Pierre district, this hotel is surrounded by restaurants and boutiques. The Grand Théâtre is a 2-minute walk away, while Saint-André Cathedral is 450 metres from the property. The tram stop 'Saint Catherine' (serving line A) is a 5-minute walk and connects directly to Bordeaux Airport, Gare Saint-Jean train station, and the city's main sights. For the Nouveau Stade Bordeaux, taxis are straightforward; the tram to the Parc des Expositions area (for the Velodrome and exhibition centre) takes about 35 minutes. The area is pedestrian-friendly, and the river is a 3-minute walk.

Rooms are decorated in modern red and white tones and are serviced by a lift. Room sizes vary: standard double rooms are 18m2, with some categories offering more space (20m2 suites with a seating area). Bed sizes include 140cm wide doubles, queen-size, and twin configurations. A crucial detail to consider when booking is that not all rooms feature a standard opening window - some units have a small floor-level aperture or a ceiling lightwell, which can make the room feel dark and poorly ventilated. Rooms with standard windows may face the street (which can be lively at night despite soundproofing) or an inner courtyard. Air conditioning is available, though some units have been noted to be noisy; double glazing helps reduce street noise but windows can be opened for ventilation.

The hotel provides a substantial breakfast buffet with a range of choices including breads, pastries, hot drinks, hot items (omelette, sausages, bacon), fresh fruit, yoghurts, and gluten-free items available on request. For other meals, there is no on-site restaurant; however, the hotel has a lounge bar open for drinks and snacks. The surrounding area within a 0.3km radius features numerous dining options including La Brasserie Bordelaise, Le Petit Commerce, and Le Taj Mahal, allowing guests to easily find a meal to suit their preferences. The hotel also offers a welcome drink and a coffee shop on site.

The hotel does not have a swimming pool or spa. The wellness offer consists of free use of a fitness centre situated in the neighbouring building. The gym is described as a full facility, appreciated by those who want to keep up with their exercise routine while travelling. For outdoor leisure, the Garonne riverfront and the Jardin Public are within a short walk.

All areas of the hotel offer free high-speed WiFi. Luggage storage is available free of charge, both before check-in and after check-out, making it easy to explore the city without bags. The 24-hour front desk team can assist with tour bookings, public transport tickets (available at reception), and restaurant reservations. Daily housekeeping is provided, and laundry services are available for an additional charge. The hotel is fully accessible by lift, and accessible parking is available nearby. Safety features include CCTV, smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and a safety deposit box in the rooms. Express check-in and check-out are available. The hotel provides a secure location for bicycle storage.
