B&B la Halte Montaigne

We stayed just one night, my wife, my daughter and me. The house is very pleasant and the owner is very friendly and available. The room was perfect. We were able to park in an alley right next to the house. Very pleasant access via a bright, leafy courtyard! We warmly recommend this house.

Very good location close to the central station. Amazing friendly host, explains everything you need to know. Gives very good hints and addresses. Full delicious breakfast. You feel like at home and not in a hotel. It‘s very personal and intimate.

La Halte Montaigne is very well situated for the train station and trams to get into the centre of Bordeaux. It is a charming and spacious place to stay with substantial breakfasts. Isabelle was very knowledgable and took great interest and time in introducing us to the city and its attractions. We would whole heartedly recommend. Thank you.

This place is run by a very welcoming host who is knowledgeable and passionate about Bordeaux and surrounding areas, I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a restful pleasant place to stay in Bordeaux, located within walking distance to Bordeaux St Jean, central train station.

Isabelle was a wonderful hostess. She helped us navigate our stay, tram is only 8 min. walk, laundromat 4 min. so convient to everything. Room was air conditioned, breakfast was yummy(oj, crossaint, fruit, coffee, tea, cheese) We'll be back.

Isabelle is a very welcoming and wonderful host. Everything you could ask for (and more) in a host. We had little knowledge of Bordeaux and surrounding areas, but Isabelle provided us with great tips on where and how to get around - and made our trip more enjoyable and economical. The location is perfect - less than 5 minute walk to Gare Saint-Jean - where you can take the tram to explore Bordeaux, Saint-Émilion and surrounding areas - or walk to the the heart of the city in 30 minutes. The accommodation - room is spacious and very clean. While we stayed in the room facing the street - it was quiet - but for a light sleeper - the sound from motorbikes (very seldom though) may wake you up (we had windows open). Breakfast is amazing - everything is freshly made - croissants, chocolatine & baguettes - with a variety of confiture - coffee and fresh fruits. We highly recommend Le Halte Montaigne and revisit when in Bordeaux. Merci beaucoup, Isabelle.

Great stay with Isabelle. Breakfast is generous and we made up cheese rolls to keep us going through the day.. Local bakery , Antone is brilliant and local cafe opposite Le Furtado is also great value. We followed Isabelle instructions as follows: 1) Tram system is brilliant and the weekly ticket (€14.20) is a great deal bought at Gare St Jean. Transit police Do check so pay up. 2) Maison du Vin (opposite Tourist Bureau) is amazing. Bordeaux wines by the glass (€3-7) and plates to share. 3) I found the submarine base with incredible AV display with Pink Floyd soundtrack a great experience. Easy tram and bus connection. 4) All the food is good but Les Droles is cheap and cheerful, Echo young and buzzy. 5) do take the Visitour bus (despite your misgivings) it does give you a great sense of the town. Bordeaux is a small town with a huge story and needs 3-5 days to do it justice. If you’re walking with suitcases from StJean Gare, use Rue Beziers then up Rue Fieffe. Continue across Rue Furtado and turn left up Rue Bertrand Andieu to head up to Rue Pelleport. It’s quiet and you can safely roll suitcases on the roads. If you’re coming from the airport, get the 30 Direct bus from the airport which delivers you to Gare St Jean for €8 per person.

La Halte Montaigne was less than a 5 minute walk from the Bordeaux train station which was what we were looking for. However besides convenient it was unique, charming and full of a lot of character. The breakfast was extensive and fulfilling. Isabelle was a wonderful hostess and full of suggestions of what to see in Bordeaux. The room was squeaky clean and very affordable.

This is a lovely family run hotel. The room we had was spacious and very comfotable. The host, Isabelle, is welcoming and extremely helpful and provides a very good continental breakfast. Lots of attention to detail such as tea, coffee or water available all day
