Hotel itself is adequate and clean with comfortable bed with decent shower & nespresso coffee machine. The superior room was much smaller that expected and there are no balconies as shown in photos which is misleading. The "courtyard" view is actually just a view of the interior of 3 brick walls and windows, I found it quite claustrophobic. Apparently you need to specify room location before arrival. Hotel communication is good asking you for preferences/requirements before arrival (shame we didn't know about which room to choose re location). The area towards the station is dreadful and dodgy if walking back from tram station at night. Derelict buildings, graffiti, rubbish, loads of demolition (April 2025), drunks and druggies. Fifteen minute walk to station. Other side of hotel has some decent restaurants & Boca food hall with lots of choices of food stalls, also a small supermarket. Tram into centre is a 15 min walk followed by 10-15 min ride. Would probably stay closer to centre or tram stop next visit.
L'hôtel est tres bien situé et de tres bon standing, par contre il y a un gros problème de climatisation des chambres. Il fait vraiment trop chaud, et pas de reglage possible.
Very clean and comfortable. The location is not very convenient for food, but 10 minutes from train station. We can only have dinner in the restaurant of hotel. The food is not exceptional for me personally. I had higher expectations, to be honest, especially for breakfast. Still a great hotel to stay compared with Ibis which is closer to train station but much lower quality at similar prices after adding breakfast and free cancellation. Just tiny reminder that some rooms might have a 2nd door interior linked to the neighbor room even though it’s locked, but if this bothers you, it might be worth checking before booking the rooms. Besides, it seems to me that the sound proof is not the best. We can easily hear the noise when cars passing by, but maybe it’s normal for a room with balcony.
Chambre spacieuse, belle décoration et prestation. Salle de petits déjeuner avec vue sur la Gironde dans un très beau roof top. Excellent rapport qualité prix.
