Great Hotel
The room was quite large with plenty of storage space. The bathroom was large and new. Breakfast was continental with cereals, coldcuts and juices- very filling and a great way to start off the day. Very convenient to city sights and you can have a wonderful walk along the river promenade across the street from the hotel. We would not hesitate to recommend Vatel Hotel to future travelers.

This hotel has everything going for it. Great location! Literally across the road from the Garonne River parkway the borders the river throughout Bordeaux which is a hive of activity almost any day and any time. The staff were exceptional and very helpful to international travelers. I’d recommend this hotel to fellow travelers.

Stayed here before river cruise was able to walk to the boat. Lots of eating options around. Hotel was very pleasant

We enjoyed our visit.
Joshua, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall, the room was clean and bathroom was very nice! Staff was incredibly friendly at arrival, inconsistent if they were at the front desk or not for rest of the stay. The WiFi connection was very poor. The only other thing to note is that it is a decent walk from city center — nothing to do with the hotel, but location continued to be rated high in reviews and I was surprised by how long it took to walk in (I could have mapped it more closely so that’s on me).

Great find in Bordeaux
The service, cleanliness and facilities were excellent. The location, while not being in the centre of town, is within walking distance and the price reflects that. A tram stop is also 2 minutes walk away. Highly recommend this hotel.

Nice hotel near the Gironde River in Bordeaux. A very liberal noon checkout time, but be advised that your room key will not work at 12:01!

Great Place to Stay
I stayed at this hotel twice during a month long stay in Bordeaux primarily because it was where a Trip USA Bordeaux tour started, so I added days on the front and back end of that tour. Ricardo, the day manager, was exceptionally helpful, but all of their staff is well trained as they have a hospitality training school on site. They offer breakfast as an extra but it’s rather expensive unless you’re a big eater.The room was very comfortable although I found the bedding too warm for my taste. Finally, the last night there, I discovered a blanket in the closet that I could use instead of the duvet. Like many hotels these days, they provide small square pillows, so on my second round there, I requested normal size pillows and they were provided. The location is excellent for seeing Bordeaux as the tram line is just across the street. It is within a nice, long walking distance of the old part of town, the river parkway and dozens of great restaurants. My one big complaint is that most hotels, including this one, do not provide a place to put open suitcases. I do not want to unpack and pack again, especially when only staying for a 2-4 days so I just used half of the king bed. The second part of the stay, I was placed in a handicap room which had more space and did have a large platform for my suitcase, which I really liked.

Esperava mais
O hotel deixou a desejar em vários aspectos como a falta de vaga para estacionar o carro na chegada e na saída. A única vaga disponível era utilizada por não hóspedes e prestadores de serviço e nunca estava desocupada. O recepcionista do turno da noite abandonava seu turno constantemente, não deu as informações necessárias quando chegamos. inclusive causando prejuízo financeiro em relação ao pagamento do estacionamento particular, e deixou-nos aguardando ao relento numa das noites porque não vinha abrir a porta que permanecia trancada após determinado horário. Em contrapartida a gerente diurna, as recepcionistas e as atendentes no café da manhã, foram extremamente simpáticas, atenciosas e prestativas. O atendimento diurno é completamente diferente graças a essas profissionais femininas. O café da manhã é bom e a limpeza do quarto é ótima. A região decepcionou em relação à disponibilidade de restaurantes e lojas.

Tres bon séjour
Accueil très sympa Chambre et literie très confortable. Chambre sur rue bruyante, mais avec des boules quies, on a très bien dormi. Vous pouvez vous garer dans le parking en face de l hôtel, vous bénéficiez de 50 % de remise. Il y a un depose minute devant. L hôtel est très bien placé pour visiter Bordeaux.
