It's all about the speedy tram access to the old town centre. Just 50 metres from Ibis Styles Bordeaux Centre Mériadeck is the Gaviniès tram stop, and that line takes you past the Mériadeck shopping precinct (awesome multi-level bakery, groceries, liquor, homewares and even some hardware) and then on to the old town centre. The Hotel itself was still being fitted out during our stay so some features weren't fully operational for us - but judging by the hive of activity the fitout should be complete by the time you read this review. The trams run all day and night, and when you switch lines the next tram is usually only a few minutes away - way better than my home town.

I liked everything! The hotel is very comfortable, much more wonderful then i could expect. Everything is new, cosy, eco friendly! The breakfast was very nice and many items were available. The additional i would like t admire the helpful staff on reception: thanks them we succeed to get to the Atlantic ocean (they adviced us the way, we couldnt finf in Google!). By the way the hotel is situated very close to tram stops (to get to the airport, to the centre)? close to Bus stop - #702 bus will take you to beautiful Lacanau - very amazing coastline of Atlantic ocean with wonderful beaches, restaurants. Highly recommended for everything!

nothing!

Great value for money. Very comfortable large bed. Restaurant food very tasty & prices reasonable. Plenty of choice at breakfast (we chose room only as we wanted to lie on (we just had breakfast there on our last morning)- there’s a bakery across the street where you can sit in & get pastries, sandwiches & coffee for very reasonable prices). All the staff are friendly and welcoming. Perfectly situated just beside a tram stop (line A to/from airport).

The only downside is the location, bit outside the centre of the city

easy to walk to the tram to get around and very clean and comfortable

no immediate bars or restaurants within the area but ten mins on the tram got you to them. a night Porter on one evening told us the bar was closed at 11.30 when actually it should have been open until 2.0am and he refused to serve us - apparently he was new but the other staff agreed that it was incorrect and there was no problem the other nights but rest of the staff were helpful

Bed comfy, shower clean and good, hair dryer and towels provided. Room clean overall.

Couldn't fathom aircon, blowing cold air from vent but room still warm as not easy to work aircon- no lights to indicate if on, opened window in end but road noisy and sirens going all hours. I should have asked reception to check. First hotel room to not have a kettle in room, staff kindly gave me a cup of hot water and milk for my tea bag brought from home. I was very grateful.

Comfortable, clean & convenient close to tram stop. Good choice at breakfast. A bar & restaurant if needed. Pleasant helpful staff!

Bar & restaurant closed on Sundays the day we arrived! No tea or coffee facilities in bedroom, which is disappointing but seems to be the norm in France, if not Europe!

Re-furbished IBIS Styles hotel with nicely appointed rooms. Quiet location on the tram route from the airport (20 mins and 1.60 Euro) and into the city (10mins). Restaurant and bar on-site. Breakfast was very good. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I would stay here again.

Nothing
