Yndo Hotel
"It’s obvious from its name alone that Yndo isn’t your classic Bordeaux hotel. Though it may look like a typical 19th-century Bordeaux chateau from the outside, don’t expect silk-lined walls and Louis XV furnishings: on the inside, YNDO is sleek, ultramodern and quirky to boot. It’s the kind of hotel Bordeaux has needed for a while—upscale yet playful, exclusive without being stuffy. There are only 12 rooms, which could be described as minimalist if not for their cosy furnishings and eclectic artwork. The communal spaces, with their perpetually lit fireplaces and soft velvet seating, beg to be lived in, while the hotel’s bar and restaurant beckon with an inventive seasonal menu and exciting wine list.
