Beautiful city - great hotel
Lovely hotel. We were upgraded to a deluxe comfort room. Check in was easy and staff very helpful. The rooms were clean and well decorated, comfortable beds and air conditioning too! Bordeaux is a beautiful city. Driving around isn’t easy as it’s mostly pedestrianised but the staff in the hotel were very helpful with directions and maps and we received discounted parking locally, with our stay. Family friendly - yes.

Best Western Grand - Review
### Review of Best Western Grand Hotel Francais in Bordeaux, France I recently enjoyed another pleasant stay at the Best Western Grand Hotel Francais in Bordeaux. Having stayed here multiple times, I can confidently say this hotel consistently meets my expectations, and I would gladly return. **Highlights:** - **Great Location:** The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to walk to key attractions such as the Grand Theater and the river. - **Cleanliness:** The rooms and common areas are impeccably clean. - **Wonderful Staff:** The reception staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, enhancing the overall experience. - **Eco-Friendly Amenities:** The new water dispenser system near the reception is a fantastic addition, helping to reduce plastic waste. **Room and Amenities:** - The rooms, though small, are creatively designed to maximize space. For business travelers like myself who primarily need a place to sleep, the room size is not an issue. - The rooms are well-maintained and equipped with all necessary amenities. **Breakfast:** - The breakfast is good, offering a variety of options without being overly grand. However, both the rooms and breakfast are on the expensive side, which is typical for Bordeaux. Overall, Best Western Grand Hotel Francais remains my top choice for accommodation in Bordeaux due to its prime location, cleanliness, and excellent service. Despite the small room size and higher costs, the positive aspects make it a worthwhile stay.

Very small hotel on side road near best spots in downtown area. Most things walkable. Rooms small but efficient and quiet. Lobby bar was very eclectic and great vibe. Theo, bartender, was amazing and made returning each evening a fun experience!
