B&B L'Escapade Bordelaise

Beautifully decorated appartement and rooms. Bathroom very modern and hotel like. Center of Bordeaux, made our 1 night stay super efficient in visiting all of old Bordeaux in just a walking distance. Highly recommend. Host very welcoming and nice ; fluent in English as well.

Our stay was very pleasant, and the location is excellent! We were able to do practically everything on foot. The experience feels very much like a bed and breakfast: it is an apartment divided into several suites with a shared living room and kitchen. I really enjoyed the experience of staying in a historic building like this in Bordeaux! The bed was okay. It is important to note that since it is an old apartment, the wooden floors creak quite a bit. This might bother light sleepers, as we could sometimes hear people walking in the hallway; however, all the other guests were very quiet and polite. Breakfast was basic, consisting of croissants, baguettes, butter, and yogurt.

Breakfast: we missed having cheese or something similar, which had been offered at the other places we stayed at in France. Additionally, at the end of our stay, we found it strange that we were charged a tourist tax of €4.50 per day per person, especially since there was a sign in the room stating the tax was €3.00. It was unexpected and odd, as our research showed that these taxes vary, and usually, only 5-star hotels charge around €5.00, which was not the case for this property. Overall, it was still a very pleasant stay!

Location, comfort, and attention.

Great location, neat old apartment renovated into rooms, good breakfast, friendly and informative staff

Our room had poor airflow and mosquitoes were prevalent when we opened the window (seasonal). There was an overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke at night, couldn’t figure out where it came from.
