The Relais de Margaux is that unfortunate combination of old/rundown, lacking sufficient and/or attentive staff, inconvenient location, overrated and terribly expensive for what you get. My wife and I are NOT terribly picky, and we generally have written positive reviews about the places we have stayed over these years, but we both agree this is the WORST hotel we have... More

Stayed there for 4 nights in May 2010 as a part of my wine tasting trip in Bordeaux region. GOOD THINGS: good and spacious rooms, very quiet, properly serviced as for this level of accomodation; perfect location for those with cars (takes 8-10 minutes to drive to Margaux). Nice golf facitities. BAD THINGS: horrible staff (especially reception and waiters) -... More

Booked the Relais de Margaux last minute but there were a number of rooms available. Requested a double room. Room was nice, clean, spaceous. Location lovely. The problem arose when going to bed. Discovered our double bed was two single beds held together by a sheet. I know this is standard in alot of hotels and normally I don't have... More

We were booked into Relais Margaux for a family celebration for 2 nights. Having viewed the website and having eaten in the Brasserie a few times I was really looking forward to it but found it very disappointing. I tried to book treatments in the spa some weeks in advance but it was already fully booked so I thought I... More

Spent a weekend at "Le Relais Margaux" This is a nice hotel, part of it is new, we stayed in the new part. The room was a nice size, the bathroom was nice also. Don't touch the minibar, prices are stupid. The staff are very kind and efficient. Didn't try the Spa, as there was no availability, but that was... More

In France, there are not much places like Relais Margaux. Location is fantastic you can really walk to Chateau Margaux, it would take you 10-15 minutes however for wine lovers looking for exclusive place to stay, Relais Margaux Hotel is really charming. Visiting the property through a hotel golf car, was great and we could appreciate the beauty of the... More

The front of house staff were welcoming , but there the luxury ended. The hotel is an unashamed money making venture, The room was in serious need of a makeover, and the restaurant was poorly run and had even run out of Margaux wines! I wanted a swim after my long drive, and was charged 30euros for the privilege. The... More

We had a wonderful stay here after "trying" to stay in the centre of Bordeaux! Having spent 1 night in that awful place we desperately looked to check in elsewhere, Relais de Margaux was the best decision we ever made! Staff were extremely welcoming and friendly, rooms were fantastic and comfortable, pool and grounds well maintained and adequate. As for... More
