Gare Saint-Jean

Next (about 1 minute of walk) to Bordeaux Saint-Jean train station, close to two the tramway lines, within walking distance from the city center. Nice warm welcoming staff. Breakfast there is generous.

A few metres from Gare St Jean, this is an excellent hotel Staff very welcoming and helpful, all with excellent English ( a plus for us !). Room was nicely furnished and compact. Comfortable bed. Quiet a/c which was important as there is a fair amount of traffic noise that required closed windows. Breakfast, included in our rate, was excellent. Food is available all day although we had only breakfast. Nearby restaurants exceeded expectations. Would stay here again without question

Hotel is convenient for the main station and we were travelling by train. Reception helpful. Room was tiny with very little space to move around. Very small toilet cubicle and the rest of the bathroom semi-open plan to the bedroom. Might be suitable for a business person staying alone but not for a couple. Everything clean and comfy though. Housekeeping totally remade the room the first night, the second night they made the bed but didn't even empty the bins. Tiny 'mini bar' more of a mini cupboard as it didn't provide any cooling. But the free mineral water provided on two out of three nights was welcome. Surprisingly good range of restaurants outside the station where we had breakfast some days. 10-15 minutes walk to St Michel square where there is a good choice of restaurants and bars. About 30 minutes into town. Although it would have been easy enough to take one of the many trams if we'd wanted to.

My husband and I spent 3 nights here on our recent trip. We traveled by train and the hotel was very easy to find from Gare St. Jean. The room was small and the bathroom was strangely configured. The toilet was in its own room/ closet. The sink was in the middle and the shower was next to the sink. Thankfully the shower stall had a closing door that kept most of the water in. This was our third hotel in France and the first time we had a door on the shower!! We did not eat breakfast at the hotel because its not worth the extra money for it. We visited the Carrefour grocery store a couple of blocks over and got breakfast items to eat in our room. Bordeaux has a wonderful tram system and the hotel is between two stations for the C and D lines making it very easy to see the city. Some peop!e may be put off by the area this hotel is in such as being sketchy or dodgy but we did not feel unsafe. Also the air conditioning in our room worked very well as it was quite warm during our stay.

Stayed here for 5 nights in July, Staff are lovely and looked after us well. you can buy tram tickets here and also light meals. Breakfast had very good choice and gluten free breads for my daughter. Rooms are very comfortable. They are compact and bathroom is part of bedroom, but perfect for a few nights stay as we only slept and showered in room. We used the trains on a few trips and it was great to be so close. Also the airport shuttle has a good timetable to Gare saint Jean. At night we always tried to be back close to 10pm, as the area around the train station was a bit rough with some very dodgy individuals. But hotel is safe and has 24 hour reception and hotel doors are locked in the evening. Rooms cleaned daily, although some days it was hit and miss to standard. I would definately stay again,

I was quoted no more than €10 for a bottle of cava with room service breakfast. I was charged on checkout at €58. I have emails to prove this see below. The hotel refused to refund the difference and tried to say the emails were not correct there was three emails discussing the bottle!! You cannot mistake what is written on an email even *********** are shocked at the hotels denials and refusal of refund Hi, We have a room service breakfast, It will cost 12 euros per person. For the bottle of cava, it is possible and it will cost less of 10 euros. To go to the airport and return, there is a bus (bus 1), it will cost 1.70 euros per trip and you have also a direct bus, it will cost 16 euros for going and return. Kind regards. The reception

We stayed here for one night to break our journey. It’s very close to the rail station (2 minutes’ walk) so would be excellent for rail travellers. If you’re driving, there’s a great secure garage, though you have to keep your eyes peeled for it as the signage isn’t great. The hotel was very clean and comfortable, the staff were lovely and breakfast was excellent! Can really recommend this hotel for a short stopover.

Staff was excellent. Went above and Beyond. Great location next to train station. Would recommend. Close to Starbucks Restaurants and close to tram to go downtown and sightseeing. Worth a look and a stay.
