Novotel Bordeaux Lac Hotel 4 stars

Very nice stay, professional and sympathetic staff. Confortable and clean rooms.

The hotel is very nice however the restaurant is too noisy and it is hard to sleep if your room is over it.

Very hard beds and cushions. Air in the room not fresh and Stink from chemicals. We slept very bad this night. Corona discipline very bad at breakfast. Buffe is not a good concept and you were the only hotel in our trip through Europe that had this concept. Many persons tight together at the buffe and not enough distance between tables. We can not recommend this hotel and will not come back.

Couldn't fault the hotel staff are a credit to the hotel customer service second to none very helpful polite was a pleasure to stay there well done to the staff x

Perfect

Not memorable, not special. Just functional.

Overnight stay whilst driving from `Spain to the Channel Tunnel with 2 dogs.

Breakfast is served till 9:30 during the week and until 11:00 on weekends. Air-condition in the room was just a ventilation. Avoid rooms with windows to the restaurant: loud parties can be held till midnight and even later. 20 minutes to Bordeaux city centre by tram, which stop is just a short walk away from the hotel.

2nd time in the hotel, executive rooms are good, just ask a high floor or not close to the terras when in summer ... otherwise you can have some noise in the evening. Hotel is nicely situated, next to a tram stop that has a direct line to the center of Bordeaux

The staff are very helpful and smiley but.... our room was portly maintained and a disappointment. Housekeeping staff did not replenish tea/coffee/water and our bottom sheet on the bed barely covered the mattress. At dinner th first night, 4 of the 7 main meals were not available so we ate elsewhere and continued to do so for our 3 night stay. Breakfast was OK but naturally. Use with so many families staying at the hotel.

very comfortable. Good buffet breakfast. Good TV. Convenient for tram into Bordeaux. Room a bit small. More lifts would be useful. Disappointing restaurant for evening meal with not much choice as all the food was quite 'fancy' and we would have preferred something plainer. However, there are other restaurants within walking distance. Useful city map provided

Chose the Novotel because it was 108* in Bordeaux and needed A/C in a BIG WAY ! Liked the idea that it was a walk from the tram (3 min at most), and had a POOL ! I'd been in Bordeaux a week and needed to cool off. I didn't realize how in the middle of NOWHERE this place is. IF you are working at the Palais du Congres or the Exhibition place, fine. Otherwise, unless you live in Bordeaux and just want a pool for the kids, forget it. Find another place. The hotel workers were nice. Front desk - day shift, very nice. Restaurant workers VERY NICE. I spoke no French, and yet they were always very helpful. BREAKFAST - note. I PAID for breakfast (which is a limited buffet style: eggs, pastries, some meets, cereal, fruit, cheese), but I don't know why I paid, since no one asked and every morning it seemed everyone in the hotel ate breakfast there. It was packed every morning. I stayed 1 week, which was TOO LONG.
