Hotel Indigo Bordeaux Centre Chartrons by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"Conveniently located in Chartrons, not in the main downtown area but only about a 10min walk away with still with plenty to do in the area. Plenty of good food around as well. Rooftop is a great vibe, did not have the food so cannot comment. Gym just had a bike, a treadmill, and some free weights but serviceable. Room was clean and more than adequate."
"The whole hotel was perfect and the staff were fabulous, our car broke down in the morning and the staff were absolutely fantastic in helping us getting everything sorted with our recovery insurance and assistance in getting us to the courtesy car
Can't thank them enough "
"Amazing hotel, not in the center, but for us was the best option going out of the city everyday. The valet service was impeccable, rooms are beautiful, the smell in the hotel common areas were sublime, the best option for our stay in Bordeaux."
