Positive Reviews
positive:
An excellent location for seeing Bordeaux...
Guests rave about the hotel's location in an older part of the city, just two minutes from the beautiful riverfront and a tram stop, which offers a quick ride directly into the city centre (otherwise a 15-minute walk).
positive:
Mix business and pleasure...
Guests generally describe the rooms as very clean, comfortable, and spacious, with modern decor and light pouring in through the big windows. Because the hotel is popular with business travellers during the week, both for its location close to offices and in-room amenities (good Wi-Fi, workspace, etc), leisure travellers note the weekend rates are a particularly "great deal."
positive:
Friendly, multilingual staff....
With a few notable exceptions, guests describe the staff as friendly, professional, and helpful with providing directions, calling taxis, and similar requests. International travellers are pleased to report that many are not only fluent in English (among other languages) but cheerfully tolerate their attempts to speak French.
Negative Reviews
negative:
A hot summer's night...
The air conditioning is often described as noisy or else ineffective, and unfortunately all the windows are sealed shut, much to the annoyance of guests wishing for a breath of fresh air.
negative:
A good hotel is hard to find...
Drivers have noted the hotel is difficult to find even with a GPS, and the on site parking is a public underground garage, an unpleasant (and pricey) surprise for those who were expecting private or free parking.
negative:
A little low on charm...
Guests expecting the "character" in keeping with the city of Bordeaux are generally disappointed by the hotel's very modern look inside and out, while others report unfriendly service at the front desk, bar, or restaurant.
