Such a unique hotel in the old Faculty of Sciences building for Zoology and Geology. We had a comfort room which had a gorgeous free-standing bath in the room itself and a powerful shower and separate basin area (this is glass screened and so you should be comfortable with your room buddy!) There's lovely little nods to its history with animals on the curtains and different flora / fauna on the tiling. Separate bathroom. The spa on the basement level has a jacuzzi, steam room and sauna which you can make use of between 8am and 11am and 8pm and 10pm without booking. Comfy robes and slippers were provided in the room. WiFI is good and work space in the room was handy for our day working. It's well-situated a short walk from the St Jean station and ~10 mins the other direction into the main town (really enjoyed nearby Marche des Capuchins for breakfast/lunch options). We didn't have the breakfast in the hotel itself as preferred to explore. Really friendly staff and we paid €40 for a 4pm check-out on our last day.

Cool, quirky hotel. The building and decor was great. Comfortable, good sized room. Breakfast was good. Didn’t eat there. We wanted to eat at the smaller bar/restaurant but it was closed. It is slightly out if the centre, about a 20 minute walk. Good team and bus connections and close to the station.

We had issues with the WiFi which really negatively impacted our stay, as I was working and had to go to a cooking space nearby to have reliable internet. Otherwise great food and design of the space. If not for the WiFi, I’d rate 5 stars.

The hotel is overall nice - nice building and service. However, it is not disclosed during the booking that they charge extra €25 for using their SPA and you’ll have to book in advance. Also the showeroom in the room is transparent so if you’re travelling with you friend, it’s a bit embarrassing

Really stylish hotel, with a beautiful terrace restaurant, friendly staff, close to lots of good restaurants and an easy walk to the centre of Bordeaux. I think they may have taken the minimalist theme a bit far but this was fine for us for the few days we were there (nowhere to put toiletries in the bathroom, no door to the shower which made it quite cold, and the floors were very slippery)

Only problem is the shower area which has transparent glass around it, and so you can easily be seen by people looking into the room from outside. Also not great when you have your daughter and son staying together in one room as we had. A bit of a design flaw.

For a 4 star accommodation I expected so much more , help with the luggage upon entrance would be helpful and a thorough introduction of the services and amenities by the FO staff , I went in the room and didnt know how to find the room numbers til i looked down and saw on the floor , they didnt tell how to contact the FO for any questions, let alone a briefing on how to turn on the lights. Tired from a trip , i would have expected a 4 star to be easy to settle in . Location is also a bit unsafe for its price , staff at the restaurant was good and the food as well.

Really nice hotel, friendly staff. We were travelling by train hotel really close to station, About 30 minute walk to city centre, although not an issue for us as we like to walk and see the city and there is plenty to see whilst walking, if you don’t want to walk excellent tram service 2 streets over. Would definitely stay again.
