This property has multiple buildings and we ended up in the one across the alley. There wasn't an elevator, but we were on the second floor in a great room so it wasn't too much of a hassle to carry our luggage up to the room. Our room had air conditioning which was a blessing as we had to check out of our first hotel because it didn't and it was ungodly hot while we were in Bordeaux. We truly loved the historic feel of the building and the location was wonderful. Would definitely recommend (but make sure the room has air conditioning).
The front entrance to the main building.
The stairs up to our room.
The view from the bed.
Our building was the one with the person at the entrance.

Loved the staff. Unfortunately when I was there it was International Music Day and a music venue outside my window played extremely loud music from three boom boxes. Very interesting music with no singing. No sleep that night as the music continued past 2 in the morning. My train left a6 am. Not a good night.

Very well located hotel, next to Grands Hommes and Gambetta and a short stroll to Pet-Berland. It's god a nice "period” feeling to it, like you are really staying in an old castle tower. Continental breakfast, although a bit pricey at 14 euros, is quite adequate. Unfortunately it is not just the building that is old but also the room: it looked small and tired, drain in the shower was very slow, safe deposit box was not working, wardrobe space was minimal, and we had 3 towels of any kind for 2 people. In fairness, we did not bring this up with the reception - except for the safe box, and that they could not help us with. Overall, I'd say it is more 2-star than 3-star, and if you don't plan on spending much time in the hotel, then it's a decent place for the price. But if it is modern and functional that you are after, look elsewhere.

The staff were incredibly friendly. The room was perfect for our stay. We stayed for 5 nights and had no issues whatsoever. The location is incredible, not too far to walk to the tram stops and all the shops. Also lots of places to eat around the hotel.

This particular hotel La Tour Intendance checked all of the boxes for me. In an ancient building, 9 min walk from the train station (from airport) and located in the heart of the old section of downtown bordeaux. And it was reasonable. It was perfect.

Location with charm & character

I was in Bordeaux for 2 nights with my 15 year old son and picked the hotel for its location. This hotel is all about its charm and character - rooms set in beautiful old stone buildings, with features such as the bathroom built out in naturally finished wood. It’s a far cry from the modern, stereotype square block 3 star hotel but we loved it. The location was fantastic and the rooms just oozed charm and character.

Nice, but choose room carefully with good bed

The hotel was very cute, beautiful old feel, however there was some kind of strange plasticy sheet under our bed sheet which made us very hot and uncomfortable, the bed was also a small double, overall didn’t sleep great. We didn’t eat the breakfast, however it looked nice when we walked past
