Au Coeur de Bordeaux B&B

Location was fantastic - just around the corner from the cathedral / Hotel de Ville

It was super hot and the air conditioning wasn't very effective

Location and staff were excellent.

Everything was very good

The ambiance was lovely and the décor gracious. The breakfast plentiful, delicious. The staff attentive. Laetitia was a delight. So accomodating. The location couldn’t have been better. The Musée des Beaux Arts was a block away. Everything close by.

We liked everything about it.

Appreciated to be contacted in advance by the hotel regarding my arrival time. Friendly staff. Good size of the room with nice furniture, good (full body) mirrors and enough space for clothes and luggage.

Based on the pictures I had seen when making the booking, I expected a nicer hotel. The lighting in the room is quite terrible (cold light, not cosy at all), the curtain was strange (stopped half a meter above the floor for a balcony door window), the bathroom is too basic (no cups or any small things of appreciation you would usually have in hotels of that price), the coffee machine needed maintenance (red light blinking, overdue descaling I guess, it still worked though), only espresso capsules and no coffee, the breakfast was outdated and clumsy (no healthy bread, not nicely served, ice cold overcooked eggs, I stopped having it after the first morning, there are much better options in the city). Location is good (practical but nothing special), however, for that price you may go as well for a nicer hotel in an even better place. This place has potential but is unfortunately not there yet. I will choose a different place next time.
