Hotel Le Palais Gallien

We loved our stay at Hotel Le Palais Gallien! Staff was incredibly welcoming and courteous and took pride in their work - they want their guests to enjoy their stay. Rooms were very clean and spacious with a gorgeous spa shower. Our room overlooked the pool area and the main building which provided a lovely backdrop. It was nice being just outside the city center (a 5-10 minute walk) with easy access to everything without the crowds of the city center. We would definitely stay here again on any future trips to Bordeaux!

This was our first time to Bordeaux. We stayed 4 nights at this lovely hotel. The staff was exceptional (thank you for decorating our room for my husband's birthday and leaving a piece of cake for him in the fridge!). This is a quiet, residential area about 15 minutes to walk to the city center. We enjoyed the location and the walk into town. We would stay here again.

It was our last night in France before we headed to Paris to fly home so we wanted someplace special. Palais Gallien Hôtel & Spa was perfect, the valet met us outside at our car and took care of our bags from there as well as taking our car parked on a very small street to safe parking for the night. The check-in staff were so polite, informational, and professional. The rooms are beautiful with a modern bathroom and very clean. The front desk was available to recommend some delicious restaurants. There is a rooftop bar on the spa and wellness center which has amazing drinks as well as terrific service. They also have plenty of small bites if you wanted to make a meal on the rooftop. If you’re in Bordeaux, I highly recommend staying here!

Absolute gem of a hotel, would highly recommend. Fantastic location and so grateful for the beautiful pool. (definitely a 'must-have' when visiting in the summer). The room is gorgeous, very spacious and such a comfortable bed. Best thing about this hotel is the fantastic staff - they are SO friendly and helpful, and cannot do enough for you. Highly recommend this hotel

Great place! Very well maintained and friendly staff. We had the best room ever! It had a Jacuzzi on the patio. It made us feel like back in Florida!!! The breakfast was very good and my son loved those selection. It situated in a great area close to everything. Just a walk away from our favorite restaurant INIMA!!! A must try place.

Our suite, in the newer part of the hotel, was large, but poorly laid out with space in all the wrong places. For example, there was a nice living room, but the bedroom was small and it was difficult to walk around the bed when a suitcase is set up on the luggage bench. There was a large, awkward armoire in the bedroom. It was difficult to open the doors and they didn't stay open. In the bathroom, two sinks crowded the counter, leaving no counter space. There was a small, cheap makeup mirror, but there was so little room on the bathroom counter it couldn't be used.||There was the smell of dampness in the room and there seemed to be some mold in the bathroom. The curtains were flimsy and poor quality. The towels and bathrobes were also poor quality.||Our room was at street level and we heard motorcycle noise, conversations from people on the street, and the noise of garbage being dumped into bins.||The hotel is on a rather dull street with no cafes or restaurants.||Overall there was the feeling that the hotel was cutting corners. We were a couple and were welcomed with three pieces of fruit (not a fruit basket) and one plate and one set of silverware. This is a wine area, but we thought it poor not to offer a complimentary bottle of wine.||The courtyard with the pool is lovely, but it didn't make up for a rather uncomfortable suite which was not worthy of five stars. The best feature was the very nice doorman who welcomed us on our comings and goings.

We had a beautiful 5-night stay here. A little walk to the center of everything but we really enjoyed our walks to and from. Rooms were large, well-appointed. The sauna/spa area was wonderful, as was the jacuzzi on our patio. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. The only downside was guidance, which we asked for before arriving, regarding a wine tour. Despite a few requests, we never really received any guidance or suggestions. Thankfully, we did find a fantastic tour on our own (via Bordeaux Wine Trails). Other than that, we had a wonderful stay.

Beautiful hotel with spacious rooms and super friendly and helpful staff! They were even kind enough to decorate our room and leave birthday cake for my husband's birthday. Hotel is in a quiet area about 15 minutes (walking) outside of the city center. We did not mind the walk. We would stay here again.
