Cet ancien Mercure, est toujours bien situé pour découvrir Bordeaux. Je le conseille, le Tram Tauzia est juste devant. Le quartier est en pleine transformation (fin des travaux : 2026)

IAN, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I booked this thinking it was a better option than the Radisson in Bordeaux. I regret not choosing the other hotel. The room was fine, the staff were fine but the overall experience was less than fine. Issues with the room, issues with being charged for drinks that weren’t mine, no ability to buy water (bar closed and no free bottle left in my room on any of the days). I booked this with a discount code but it was still overly expensive for the experience. Better value hotels out there I think. I had fond memories of Novotel travelling to France with my family in the early 90’s. - I probably wouldn’t book again with this chain.

Bien situé, personnel professionnel et serviable. C’est dommage que le petit déjeune est très simple et manque de la qualité.

Ganske udemærket hotel

Super fint hotel, der ligger godt. Området omkring hotellet virker hyggeligt. Det er altid ærgerligt når ekstrasengen er en sovesofa, men det er hvad det er. Morgenmaden var udenærket og personalet smilende og servicemindet.

Bien

Bien porque está cerca de la estación de tren, pero la zona no es bonita.
