We attended a wedding nearby and Le Provençal was listed as a recommended hotel by the family. We stayed for 2 nights and found it very comfortable and clean with everything that we needed for our stay.

The staff was very kind and helpful. We are English speakers and the bilingual capabilities of those who were on duty made the stay even more pleasant.

The breakfast was very good with many choices.

I would stay there again if ever in the area.

We really weren't sure what to expect when choosing this hotel, but the minute we arrived and were greeted by the charming lady at reception we knew we had made a good choice. This particular person (whose name we didn't catch) made us so welcome - pointing out the tram stop - a couple of minutes walk away - and explaining what stops we needed to look out for to make sure we would get home safely! She also pointed out on a map the must see places in Bordeaux and made some great recommendations for places to eat and drink. She also went out of her way to help us arrange a trip to the vineyards.

Her friendly manner was reflected in all the staff we encountered who were always quick to acknowledge us with a smile and a greeting.

Turning to the room - it was clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. We are travellers who don't spend a lot of time in our room so a clean and comfortable bed and a hygienic bathroom with a hot shower is most important to to us. Having a kettle was great with a selection of tea and coffee - no milk - though we didn't need it. There was a TV in the room, but we didn't bother with it.

Breakfast was a good buffet - continental but also with the option of toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. I was advised by my travelling companion that the coffee was excellent!

I would recommend this hotel.
