Hôtel Konti by HappyCulture™

I never leave reviews but had to leave one for this hotel. If you are looking for a place to stay in Bordeaux and you usually spend a lot of time searching for just the right place when traveling on your dime and for pleasure, really don't look any further. This hotel is perfect. The rooms are maybe a little small if traveling with kids, but perfect for a single person or a couple. The bed was spectacularly comfortable and the shower had both an abundant waterfall showerhead and a hose, both useful given that the shower is the size of a telephone booth (remember those?), not big enough to turn or touch your toes. I had a bit of a view and a sweet balcony with doors that opened fully, displaying an un-American lack of concern for lawsuits and a refreshing trust in my ability not to defenestrate. The room was very clean and the staff were very helpful. They gave me a late checkout with no problems (didn't even ask me how long I needed! dangerous). And, honestly, you can't ask for a better location. It is close to the beautiful public gardens and the riverfront and endless shopping (it's probably close to other things too, but I went running and then shopped for hours so this review is partial in the double sense of being incomplete and an overview of what *I* like--you can write your own after you stay here). The only thing that might give you pause is that on Friday nights there is a bar downstairs that stays open until midnight and whatever they serve fosters a lot of shrieking. I didn't mind but if you are against happiness, you might not like the bar. Finally, the rate was really reasonable, especially if you don't sweat the difference between the dollar and the euro until you get home (lol, not advising that).

1. Excellent location — 10/10. All main sights are just around the corner, everything is within walking distance. The area is full of restaurants, cafés, and shops. Parking is only 2 minutes away, €24 per day. The hotel is dog friendly 🐾 — €20 extra per dog. Staff are polite and very welcoming. 2. Rooms are small, but that’s quite normal for France, especially for a hotel right in the city center. The beds are very comfortable and the bed linen is of great quality. 3. Breakfast was the main disappointment: very modest and limited for a 4-star hotel, and the coffee was really poor. We had exactly the same breakfast in a budget Ibis, which felt underwhelming. Also, there was no bottled water in the room, which you would normally expect in a hotel of this category. ✨ Overall, the hotel left a very positive impression thanks to its location, comfort, and the friendliness of the reception team. Many thanks to the staff for their hospitality!

For me, this was the perfect location in the 'golden triangle' of Bordeaux. It's central, but quiet. Easy to feel in a local neighbourhood while being also in the heart of the city. The hotel team are kind and courteous. The breakfast is very good and the rooms, even the cosy smaller ones, are well appointed. Importantly, the beds are very comfortable. Would recommend!

Great stay in Bordeaux! We had a lovely stay at Hotel Konti. Richard took great care of us and provided excellent support when we arrived. The hotel is perfectly located close to shops and restaurants. Housekeeping did a great job freshening up the room daily and replenishing tea/coffee supplies. Con’s: The room we had was very small and difficult for 2 people with 2 suitcases Bath towels were small and no bathrobes

Fantastic stay at Hotel Konti!! We were just here for one night as we were traveling but would definitely return. After a long day of travel we were ready to get to hotel and they were so accommodating and had our rooms ready early. Our room had a lovely balcony and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast served at the hotel was delicious and fresh and authentic. Highly recommend staying at Hotel Konti in Bordeaux!

We loved this hotel! The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was beautiful with a comfortable bed and hot shower. The staff also helped us book a last minute car rental in a timely fashion. We will be back!

We stayed in that hotel for 2 nights with a friend. The location is great - directly in the city centre. The rooms are pretty well: clean , we found everything we need there. The service is very gentle as well , we have asked the 2nd blanket and it was provided immediately. Breakfast is good too.

I had a great stay at Hotel Konti! The location is perfect, right in the heart of Bordeaux, close to everything. The staff was friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. The room was clean, stylish, and very comfortable. I also appreciated the calm atmosphere inside the hotel despite being so central. Would definitely recommend it and would love to stay here again next time I’m in Bordeaux!
