Hôtel Vatel

A lovely hotel, close to the Cite Du Vin and the river walk / Bacalan area of Bordeaux. The hotel is aligned with the local teaching college for the hospitality industry. As a consequence, the front of house staff and people we dealt with were young, from different countries and very enthusiastic. Just delightful and very hospitable. The room was very comfortable. A lovely bathroom, with generous proportions. A comfortable bed. Very well priced. We visited in August, so a lot of local restaurants were closed. The front of house staff gave us a very good recommendation, for a local restaurant, that was open, near by.

Nothing.

quay area with shops and restaurants across the road and lovely walk along river into main part of town and short walk along river to Cite du Vin. as it's part of the hotel school majority of the staff are young, helpful and enthusiastic. The Bordeaux breakfast of baguette with cheeses, hams and jams is great.
