Hotel berhampiran Jacques Chaban-Delmas Bridge, Bordeaux

We traveled to Bordeaux from Paris, and thought the property was beautiful and the rooms were updated and spacious. It was a nice change from Paris. The staff was very welcoming and I had an exceptional experience with concierge that helped to secure dining reservations, set up Chateaux tastings with transportation, and recommend a boat rental in Arcachon. The local recommendations really made it a fantastic experience. The pool was nice, but we didn't get an opportunity to dine in the restaurant. We will return to Mondrian the next time we are in Bordeaux.

Hotel services were excellent especially the breakfast. Lots of variety and the artisanal yogurts selection was wonderful. Only negative comment is the area around the hotel. Quiet at night and best not to walk around when it gets dark.

Perhaps it was because we came in winter, but this hotel did not live up to previous reviews. It was very much a mixed bag across the board. I've rounded down the stars as I'd give this 2.5 if I could, as it's definitely not a 3 star place currently. The Good - Comfy bed, nice linen - Comfort in the room in general - Cleanliness - Eco friendly large bottles of good quality soap shampoo etc - Location for leaving the city for day trips The average - General location - this will be off-putting for some people as it's in housing estates (and not affluent ones), it's about a 16min walk to the tram station, and very narrow roads driving in making it hard to get to (cars parked all along the sides) - Road noise - constant but only an issue if you open the window which we needed to as the room was very warm and air con wasn't cold, tho not surprising as it's winter (I expect it wasn't turned on) - Parking - in a caged/ gated section, wouldn't like to be here at a peak time as it was almost full the two nights we stayed The bad - Breakfast - very disappointing, not much choice at all, no effort put into it, no hot foods. Photos online definitely don't represent what's on offer at least at this time. - In room TV - while a nice TV, no movie channel and no way to connect an external device or log into any of your own services - WiFi - did not work the entire time we were there (this was not the individual hotel's fault but that of IHG and really for such a huge chain inexcusable) - Staff morale - while everyone was friendly, no one did more than was expected to the point that when asking about finding a particular regional dish in the city, we were told ”I have no idea, just ring some of the restaurants” Bordeaux is a lovely city, as is the region as a whole. I can't recommend this hotel unless you need to be in that area particularly or are only passing through for a night. I've stayed in Holiday Inns before and while cosmetically this is one of the newest/ nicest, it left a bitter taste in the mouth. We've been staying in lots of hotels in France so far, and this has been the worst experience, for example the following night at a very old and cheap chain hotel in Biarritz next to the airport, we had an incredible breakfast, zero noise with the window open, and wonderful and helpful service (despite France losing the final).

C'est la deuxième fois que nous venons dans cet appart'hôtel. Cette fois-ci, nous avons trouvé la suite assez exiguë. De plus, celle qui nous avait été réservée était sous toiture et sans ventilateur alors qu'il faisait jusqu'à 42°C. Le préposée de l'hôtel, très charmante et serviable, a accepté de nous changer de suite, un étage en-dessous, pourvue d'un ventilateur. Nous avons appris qu'il y a deux autres emplacements de cette chaîne à proximité avec airco. À penser pour la prochaine fois.

Accueil chaleureuse et chambre propre

Hotel is very modern, located in middle of industrial estate. Staff are very friendly and helpful but language difficulties exist if you dont speak French. Hotel is best suited to travellers with cars. If you don't have a car, accessing anywhere is difficult. There is very little in immediate vicinity and public transport involves a short walk for bus and a 30 minute walk for train. Both are fairly infrequent. Hotel staff were unable to provide guidance on this. Overall view is that hotel is probably ideal if you're driving and looking for somewhere to rest enroute. It's clean and breakfast is ok, albeit basic. But if you're looking for a base to visit Bordeaux, look for something closer to the city.

Il y avait des problèmes concernant la douche pendant mon séjour, apparemment c était un problème connu et en cours de réparation. Sinon c est un hôtel première classe comme les autres, plutôt bien tenu, propre et peu cher, dans une zone où se trouvent d autres hôtels, proche de la rocade.les chambres d'hôtels premières classes ont douche et wc privative, une tv, accès internet wifi et une bonne climatisation réglable à souhait.

位置不錯，在波爾多南郊，帶個小泳池，適合孩子戲水，這個價格還帶雙早餐，非常合適，員工服務很客氣，主動早上做煎餅果子給我吃，中英文流利。直接開車去市中心25分鐘，還帶免費停車位，和大超市在一個停車場。

We chose to stay at the Kyriad Direct Bordeaux Sud-Cestas for a number of reasons. It was conveniently located just off of A63, giving us handy access to the motorway. It was a direct route from our stay in Bayonne and far enough out of Bordeaux centre to make it more affordable. As it was, it put us in the centre of the region, allowing us access to more than just a visit to the city. We were approximately, twenty minutes from the Bordeaux city centre and as we chose to visit the Dunes of Pilat, about 35 minutes away. Having a car allows you more access to more options. This motel is located in the town of Cestas, which has all the facilities, gas stations, shops, etc., so you are not isolated. This is a fairly large establishment, I think seventy one rooms, and as it is a motel, parking is available right out in front of the rooms. A feature that we like. The rooms are ample in size, clean, comfortable, as are the beds/pillows, and the bathroom does what it needs to do. There is free wifi included, and tv and air-conditioning in each room. There is a good breakfast buffet available for a nominal fee. We didn't eat breakfast there, so cannot give it more comment than that. The staff were all very friendly and pleasant as well. Also, access to the property has security in place after hours. A two day visit does border on a whirlwind course, but we made the most of it. The first day we drove into Bordeaux, parked and did a walking tour of the Old Town. Bordeaux (Port of the Moon) was listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2007. It has over 362 historic monuments, making it second only to Paris in this regard One activity that we did was a boat tour on the Garonne, SAS Yacht De Bordeaux. For a cost of 19euro , we enjoyed an informative, relaxing boat ride along the Garonne. Taste of the regions wine was included. The next day we drove out see the Grande Dune du Pilat, the tallest sand dune in Europe. This is a must to see. A visit to Bordeaux is well worth it and, I think our choice of staying at the Kyriad Direct Bordeaux Sud, one that we will repeat.

This is a good hotel in a great situation in Libourne. Good parking, great directions from staff for Bastille day road closures, nice welcome, nice modern room with comfy bed, walk in shower & good air con in a brilliant location, what more could you ask for. Was a stop off for us so didn’t use the hotel much other than for a sleep but would highly recommend at the reasonable pricing. Restored my faith in Mercure again!
