For an elegant stay

Wonderfully located on the edge of the city centre, le clos d’emile is a two minute walk from the tram that will get you anywhere in Bordeaux. It is also next to the beautiful Public Garden where you can go for a leisurely stroll. The five room chambre d’hotes is tastefully decorated by mixing antiques with contemporary furniture and art. It is kept immaculately clean, bed linen is fresh and high quality, and the service is very friendly. Margot is a charming host. There was a good continental breakfast with cappuccinos and espressos. The only potential improvement would be to offer the coffee, cheese, tea, wine that is available in the lounge at no extra charge (given the premium price of accommodation).

Liked: location, amenities, breakfast, comfort of bed and bathroom, variety of indoor and outdoor public areas Most appreciated: The manager, Camille, was extraordinarily accommodating, which made us feel more like guests in a guest house than merely occupants of a hotel, however "grand" that hotel may tout itself as being. Note that there's no elevator, but the staff will take your luggage up and down for you.

A fabulously renovated guesthouse, full of character and beautifully furnished in a very quiet location. We were expertly looked after by Margot and Camille who were both charming and provided a lovely French breakfast along with any information we required, if you want a luxury stay without the impersonality of a large hotel this is the place to choose.

Ideal location right next to Le Jardin Public- beautiful gardens. Welcoming guest house with only 5 rooms- so much nicer and intimate than a huge hotel. Great breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.

Very luxurious

While I don’t recommend Bordeaux in general, if you have to go, definitely stay at this hotel. It was quite luxurious, and the employees were very helpful. A nice oasis away from a dirty city.

Lovely hotel close to the garden and with walking distance of the old city and promenade along the river. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful in meeting us at check-in, giving us a brief guide to the area sites and making recommendations and then booking a reservation for dinner. The hotel only has 5 rooms. Our room was spacious and comfortable. We did have to walk up two flights of stairs; but for us it was not a problem. The hotel staff was most accommodating in helping us to settle in. Would definitely recommend this hotel highly. NB: There is a lot of street construction around the hotel at the moment; but it was easy for us to navigate around this. I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet the surrounding area was throughout the night.
