We stayed for 5 nights and had a very comfortable visit. Ideally placed near the tram and a close walk to the main centre the Novotel was an excellent choice. The staff were very friendly, the breakfast was good with variety of hot and cold items, the staff even remembered my gluten free bread each morning, car park was a huge advantage.

Disappointed that there was no where to get a drink upon arrival - no bar nor minibar! TV in the room did not have M6 so I couldn't watch the World Cup, so I had to venture outside the hotel and there was not much happening nearby and a little bit uncomfortable in the backstreets. Apart from that the room and breakfast was fine.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay with us. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the comfort of your room and the quality of our breakfast. We are, however, sorry to learn that some aspects of your experience did not fully meet your expectations. Regarding the bar and minibar, we would like to clarify that a minibar is only available in our superior room categories. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused during your stay. Our reception team remains available to assist our guests and to recommend nearby options for refreshments. We also take note of your comment regarding the television channels and will look into this matter in order to improve our service. We regret that you did not feel fully comfortable when exploring the surrounding area. Our hotel is conveniently located close to public transport, allowing easy access to Bordeaux city centre and its many restaurants and activities. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and provide you with an improved experience. Kind regards, Léa Receptionist

The manager and staff were professional and courteous. Breakfast was good although a shame it was actually too hot to sit outside. The restaurant itself was fairly quiet in the evenings, so didn’t have much atmosphere, but the quality of the food made up for this. Few issues, (such as air-con in extremely hot weather) but these were dealt with immediately by the friendly and attentive staff. Facilities were all fine. Would have been better to have a walk in shower rather than a shower over the bathtub but decent and clean. Large terrace was a definite added bonus. Tram stop over the road and main train station a few minutes walk away. Overall, a great location and excellent services at a reasonable price.

Dear guest, Thank you very much for your wonderful 10/10 rating and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are delighted to hear that you appreciated the professionalism and friendliness of our manager and team, as well as the quality of our food, our location, and the terrace. It is also great to know that any issues you encountered were resolved promptly by our staff. We truly appreciate your comments regarding the shower and the atmosphere in the restaurant during the evenings, as they help us identify areas for improvement. Your feedback is invaluable to us. It was a pleasure welcoming you, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again on your next visit. Kind Regard, Assia from the Reception

Stayed in Bordeaux for four nights before an additional night in Paris. Arrived and departed by train so chose this hotel partly on location. I had previously seen some opinions that this area hear the station was undesirable but we found it clean, quiet and incredibly convenient. The hotel is two minutes from a tram stop serving some of the main lines and a few more mins from another central stop. We were very happy walking back to the hotel at night from the tram stops or after a walk along the river to help dinner go down! Room size was great, the private terrace for our room was a little stark but served the purpose of giving us some outside space to sit before going out. The room fridge was replenished with water, orange and cola every other day. Coffee was topped up daily. Air con worked well, tv had good reception. The wardrobe/shelving combination wasn't great for a couple who wanted to hang up dresses and shirts/trousers as there was very little hanging space and half of the width of the wardrobe was used up by shelving. We didn't try the bar or restaurant but they looked like welcoming areas. Staff were very friendly and helpful at check in/out and when we had a couple of questions during our stay.

Dear Guest, Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your stay. We are delighted to read that you enjoyed our convenient location close to the train station and tram network, the comfort and size of your room, as well as the friendliness and helpfulness of our team. It is also a pleasure to know that the amenities, refreshments, and air conditioning contributed to making your stay enjoyable. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the wardrobe space and the private terrace. Your comments are valuable and will be taken into consideration as we continue to improve our facilities. Regarding your booking experience, we understand your frustration about finding a different rate on the app compared with the website. We sincerely regret this inconvenience and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We encourage you to contact our team directly should you encounter this situation again, and we will be happy to assist you whenever possible. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back on your next visit to Bordeaux. Kind regards, The Reception

Excellent location - Tram to airport and city centre outside the hotel. train station 5mn walk Classic room was large, clean, quiet and modern. Big TV. Air Con. Bed was very comfortable! Bathroom was functional and clean but a bit small Reception staff were professional Minuses were no bottle of water at all in the room and we were there during a heatwave. We were told there is a water fountain by reception and we could 'buy' a bottle to fill!!! Only a few sachets of tea/ coffee in the room. No milk. Restaurant is closed on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Bar is open but manned by reception staff so the usual offerings are not available, you can only have a limited choice of drinks.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are very pleased that you enjoyed our convenient location, the comfort of your room, and the professionalism of our team. We are sorry that some aspects of your stay did not fully meet your expectations, particularly regarding bottled water during the heatwave, in-room refreshments, and the weekend restaurant and bar service. We fully understand your comments and regret any inconvenience caused. Regarding housekeeping, please note that rooms are cleaned daily. However, for ecological reasons, our hotel offers a BE GREEN service in case of refusal of cleaning, offering you: a soft, a beer or a glass of wine! The Reception

Very good staff. Especially the lady at check in who eventually sorted out a room with 2 beds for us this was agreed and confirmed but somehow lost in your system so we spent an hour enjoying the bar area

Dear Guest, Thank you very much for your feedback. We are happy that you found our hotel a pleasant “oasis of cool” during the heatwave and that our team made a positive impression, especially at check-in. We sincerely regret the confusion regarding your confirmed room request for two beds and the inconvenience caused upon arrival. We understand your disappointment and apologize for the time it took to resolve the situation. We are pleased that our team was ultimately able to accommodate your request and that you were able to relax in our bar area during the wait. Your comments are very valuable and will help us improve our communication and reservation process. We hope to welcome you back soon. The Réception

As soon as I entered the room, I started sneezing. Very dusty even though the room looked clean. But upon closer look, there were a lot of flies and bugs in the room. Also the location wasn't ideal and we had to pay to park.
