Hotels Near Parc Bordelais in Bordeaux

We traveled to Bordeaux from Paris, and thought the property was beautiful and the rooms were updated and spacious. It was a nice change from Paris. The staff was very welcoming and I had an exceptional experience with concierge that helped to secure dining reservations, set up Chateaux tastings with transportation, and recommend a boat rental in Arcachon. The local recommendations really made it a fantastic experience. The pool was nice, but we didn't get an opportunity to dine in the restaurant. We will return to Mondrian the next time we are in Bordeaux.

It is 2.8 kilometers away from the airport, a 35-minute walk. The light rain in the morning was very light, and we successfully arrived at Bordeaux Airport and Madrid, Spain, in about an hour.

This is the second time we came to this apartment. This time we found the suite quite narrow. Furthermore, the one that was reserved was under the roof and without a ventilator while it was up to 42°C. The hotel's staff, very charming and serviceable, agreed to change our suite, a floor below, with a fan. We learned that there are two other locations in this chain nearby with air-conditioning. To think for the next time.

The hotel is beautifuly maintained, the staff is great. Continental reakfast at 10 euros is ok but fruits could be improved a bit. I was grateful that they were willing to go find me gluten free bread. Perhaps you could add a few more items to the continental breakfast. Guests should be aware of the location of this hotel. It is a long walk to downtown and while there is a tram within 15 minute walking distance, we did not feel very safe in this area. Not recommend you walk around after dark.

🚗 Traffic: The transportation is very convenient. The hotel is close to the light rail and bus stop. There is a supermarket a few steps away. 🧹 Health: Health is barely ok. 🍃 Environment: The environment is generally his windows are closed but the room is not very big overall. If there are two beds, it seems crowded. 🔔 Service: Breakfast service but additional tax is required when staying about Euro 5.4

Perhaps it was because we came in winter, but this hotel did not live up to previous reviews. It was very much a mixed bag across the board. I've rounded down the stars as I'd give this 2.5 if I could, as it's definitely not a 3 star place currently. The Good - Comfy bed, nice linen - Comfort in the room in general - Cleanliness - Eco friendly large bottles of good quality soap shampoo etc - Location for leaving the city for day trips The average - General location - this will be off-putting for some people as it's in housing estates (and not affluent ones), it's about a 16min walk to the tram station, and very narrow roads driving in making it hard to get to (cars parked all along the sides) - Road noise - constant but only an issue if you open the window which we needed to as the room was very warm and air con wasn't cold, tho not surprising as it's winter (I expect it wasn't turned on) - Parking - in a caged/ gated section, wouldn't like to be here at a peak time as it was almost full the two nights we stayed The bad - Breakfast - very disappointing, not much choice at all, no effort put into it, no hot foods. Photos online definitely don't represent what's on offer at least at this time. - In room TV - while a nice TV, no movie channel and no way to connect an external device or log into any of your own services - WiFi - did not work the entire time we were there (this was not the individual hotel's fault but that of IHG and really for such a huge chain inexcusable) - Staff morale - while everyone was friendly, no one did more than was expected to the point that when asking about finding a particular regional dish in the city, we were told ”I have no idea, just ring some of the restaurants” Bordeaux is a lovely city, as is the region as a whole. I can't recommend this hotel unless you need to be in that area particularly or are only passing through for a night. I've stayed in Holiday Inns before and while cosmetically this is one of the newest/ nicest, it left a bitter taste in the mouth. We've been staying in lots of hotels in France so far, and this has been the worst experience, for example the following night at a very old and cheap chain hotel in Biarritz next to the airport, we had an incredible breakfast, zero noise with the window open, and wonderful and helpful service (despite France losing the final).

Good location, in the southern suburbs of Bordeaux, with a small swimming pool, suitable for children to play in the water, this price also has a double breakfast, very suitable, the staff service is very polite, take the initiative to make pancake fruit for me in the morning, fluent in Chinese and English. Directly drive to the city center for 25 minutes, with free parking, and a large supermarket in a parking lot.

We chose to stay at the Kyriad Direct Bordeaux Sud-Cestas for a number of reasons. It was conveniently located just off of A63, giving us handy access to the motorway. It was a direct route from our stay in Bayonne and far enough out of Bordeaux centre to make it more affordable. As it was, it put us in the centre of the region, allowing us access to more than just a visit to the city. We were approximately, twenty minutes from the Bordeaux city centre and as we chose to visit the Dunes of Pilat, about 35 minutes away. Having a car allows you more access to more options. This motel is located in the town of Cestas, which has all the facilities, gas stations, shops, etc., so you are not isolated. This is a fairly large establishment, I think seventy one rooms, and as it is a motel, parking is available right out in front of the rooms. A feature that we like. The rooms are ample in size, clean, comfortable, as are the beds/pillows, and the bathroom does what it needs to do. There is free wifi included, and tv and air-conditioning in each room. There is a good breakfast buffet available for a nominal fee. We didn't eat breakfast there, so cannot give it more comment than that. The staff were all very friendly and pleasant as well. Also, access to the property has security in place after hours. A two day visit does border on a whirlwind course, but we made the most of it. The first day we drove into Bordeaux, parked and did a walking tour of the Old Town. Bordeaux (Port of the Moon) was listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2007. It has over 362 historic monuments, making it second only to Paris in this regard One activity that we did was a boat tour on the Garonne, SAS Yacht De Bordeaux. For a cost of 19euro , we enjoyed an informative, relaxing boat ride along the Garonne. Taste of the regions wine was included. The next day we drove out see the Grande Dune du Pilat, the tallest sand dune in Europe. This is a must to see. A visit to Bordeaux is well worth it and, I think our choice of staying at the Kyriad Direct Bordeaux Sud, one that we will repeat.

Hotel is very modern, located in middle of industrial estate. Staff are very friendly and helpful but language difficulties exist if you dont speak French. Hotel is best suited to travellers with cars. If you don't have a car, accessing anywhere is difficult. There is very little in immediate vicinity and public transport involves a short walk for bus and a 30 minute walk for train. Both are fairly infrequent. Hotel staff were unable to provide guidance on this. Overall view is that hotel is probably ideal if you're driving and looking for somewhere to rest enroute. It's clean and breakfast is ok, albeit basic. But if you're looking for a base to visit Bordeaux, look for something closer to the city.

This is a good hotel in a great situation in Libourne. Good parking, great directions from staff for Bastille day road closures, nice welcome, nice modern room with comfy bed, walk in shower & good air con in a brilliant location, what more could you ask for. Was a stop off for us so didn’t use the hotel much other than for a sleep but would highly recommend at the reasonable pricing. Restored my faith in Mercure again!
