We had been staying is some rather uncomfortable accommodation elsewhere, so we thought that we would book the best hotel in Bordeaux as a treat. Although some of the guides bill this hotel as having "period" features, it is recently built and occupies a rather unprepossessing site near some unattractive modern concrete flats, reasonably close to the city centre, but... more

The friendly staff that welcomes you at Burdigala - just a 5 min walk from historical and central Bordeaux are real professionals.The surroundings of this hotel do not provide any of the rooms with a great, romantic view. If that's what you're after: go somewhere else. But you don't want to excperience this beautiful UNESCO-listed city from your hotel window... more

A reasonably good hotel - very friendly helpful staff. We were upgraded to better room for no particular reason which was very nice - as a result we had a very large room - more like a junior suite. Decor in rooms is a bit mundane - bathroom was reasonable size but was starting to show its age. Parking (by... more

Great location, hotel room was a good size big bathroom. Staff were really nice and very helpful especially Stephane who recommened restaurants and booked them for us and would always phone our room about an hour before to tell us he had booked a taxi. John in the bar was really nice also. Bordeaux is a great place to visit.... more

Really nice hotel, about 5 minutes' walk from the main shopping/tourist area. Feels central without being noisy. Excellent service all round: staff couldn't do enough for us, and it felt sincere. Our "standard" room was lovely - not massive, but certainly not too small. Good large, comfortable bed. Very clean, and good maid service - in fact I was slightly... more

We loved the location. Our friends had stayed there a few years ago and found the staff to be very friendly and accomodating. The sleeping rooms were lovely. Lots of wonderful fresh crisp linen every day, towels etc. Dining room had issues when we were there in mid-April 07. Something happened and our special dinner was a mess. The general... more

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Burdigala for four nights in may 2007. We would not hesitate to stay there again. It is a four star hotel and it shows. Do not be put off by the immediate surroundings--ugly modern buildings and really nothing to look at. But you are 5 minutes from the old city by foot.... more

My wife and I stayed at the Burdigala for five nights in April 2007. We were very pleased with the hotel and enjoyed our stay there. This is quite an expensive hotel; we knew that before we went so there were no surprises. At 19 euros each, breakfast is not cheap. However, it was a good hot and cold buffet... more
