Mama Shelter hotels are always funky and interesting. The Bordeaux one is in a quiet area but only a couple of minutes walk from the main shopping area. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially when we needed advice on how to get the to arena for a show. We ate in the hotel restaurant on the first night as we arrived late after a long day, but the service was non existent and the food average so I would avoid eating there as there are so many fabulous restaurants in the area. The room was quirky with the bed in the middle of the room. We had a really enjoyable 4 days in Bordeaux and would recommend it for a short break.

Quirky decoration throughout, confortable and clean. Staff were welcoming. Located in the city centre, so easy access by foot. There's no access by car due to barriers on the streets, so we had to use a local car park. At night, the area around the hotel didn't feel particularly welcoming due to homelessness, but this was a problem all around the city.

Of the four hotels we stayed during our holiday in France, this one was the absolute best! I highly recommend this LGBTQ friendly property. It is so much fun and the rooftop bar is a must! The rooms are super spacious (I know… this is a hotel in Bordeaux!) and the bed so comfortable. The mirrors and bed all light up to making it extra cool!

Cute hotel! Lovely bar and fun decor. Wouldn’t stay there again because the area it is in is a bit sketchy (the street specifically) and the only view options are 2 buildings straight across from you on both sides .

This is a great hotel in the center of Bordeaux which is very close to most of the main attractions in the city. It has a modern vibe and the bars are hopping in the evenings. The breakfast was really good. The staff was amazing and very helpful. The rooms are a bit small and there’s no coffee in the rooms but it’s France and the coffee is easy to get downstairs

We had an amazing stay at mama shelter in bordeaux. The bar and restaurant are great. The vibe is amazing. The only issue we had was that our shower lost pressure so we couldn’t wash before we left. I expected the staff to offer some form of discount considering the inconvenience but they did not. Given that being able to wash is a pretty fundamental aspect of staying in a hotel I do think they staff could have made more of an effort to compensate us.
