This hotel is set up for remote working in the lobby of this hotel. There are little cubicles and common workspace areas. It has a gym which is usually empty. The rooms are large however the a/c was not very performant. Location is great but with the roadwork being done by the parking lot, accessing parking was a bit confusing as the signs for « Parking 8 May 1945 » Disappear at the roundabout diversion

This was the most expensive stay so far on our tour of Europe. The a/c in our room was very poor even after a repair person looked into the issue. The coffee machine at the in house restaurant served sour milk and had difficulty in convincing the attendant until several complaints were submitted. Was hoping for better relative to the price.

Good hotel

We really enjoyed our stay at Novotel Bordeaux Centre. The breakfast was pretty good, the rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. The shower in our room was pretty low pressure and the toilet didn't flush properly. The staff was amazing though, really helpful and understanding and most of them spoke English. All in all a pretty good hotel that has a good location if you want to explore the city by foot or by bike.
