10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in Novotel Bordeaux Lac for 5 days and had a lovely time! Our room was comfortable and clean, the food at the hotel restaurant was very nice, the staff kind and helpful and our 9 year old son also enjoyed the games room which had an XBox and a bar football. Highly recommended!

10/10 Exceptional

this hotel seems recently updated and the interiors and rooms are really nice in this hotel class. Rooms look nice and are well-equipped and clean (and quiet). The exteriors could use a bit of paint to make it look more friendly and less like a dead building in a dead zone. The exterior might dissuade people to stay there, while it is really a nice, modern hotel on the edge of Bordeaux that I will remember next time I'm in the area.

Although we checked in online, we had to spend time at the front desk answering all kinds of useless questions. Key was inactivated at some point, did not get an explanation as to why, only that it could have been "demagnetized"..

Un séjour agréable malgré le monde dans l'hôtel. Du personnel agréable et disponible, souriant, attentif. Chambre spacieuse avec la climatisation, appréciable avec cette chaleur. Possibilité de prendre un verre, de se restaurer, un petit-déjeuner copieux et varié dans un cadre dépaysant. Je reviendrai avec plaisir si l'occasion se présente

Carga muy cara de coches eléctricos

El precio de la carga de los coches eléctricos es carísimo en las estaciones de carga del hotel. Aunque en Francia la gasolina es más cara que en España, no sale a cuenta la conducción en eléctrico si cargas la electricidad en el hotel con los cargadores de ELECTRA
