Une Chambre Chez Dupont

Had a wonderful stay here with friends for a weekend away in the wonderful city of Bordeaux. The rooms were lovely and had everything we needed and the location was fantastic near lots of great bars and restaurants. Reception helped us to book a half day wine tour.

After you get over the initial shock of the very steep 2 flights of stairs this place is a gem. It is nicely decorated and has everything you need. The bed is comfortable and the appartment very spacious. Great location with bakery below and near by restaurants that are not too touristy. The smell of the bread in the morning was heavenly. The little balcony was great for drinks and for having breakfast on. One word of warning if you use a site not direct with the accommodation you could end up like us with no instructions to get in as their emails never made it to us. My only compaint would be that instead of apologising when I rang for help I was told the emails had been sent and I didnt read them. They did not arrive and have similar problems in the past. It all worked out fabulously in the end but was not a great start.

Room was great, fancily decorated, though impractically lighten. Neighbourhood is nice, walkable and connected. Host takes time to answer messages, which can be a serious inconvenient when already travelling.

Wonderful location and a beautiful room, in the heart of the old town. The host was incredible and responded immediately to any questions we had, which were many! We loved Bordeaux and will definitely return to Une Chambre when we next visit.

Great hotel in a nice neighbourhood less than 15 min walk to the centre of town. Their restaurant served the best meal I had during our Bordeaux. Lot's of other restaurants and bars in the neighbourhood if you are feeling lazy and don't want to into the centre. Margot was very helpful, with recommendations and helped us organise wine tastings and tours. The rooms are all unique and very spacious.

We booked in for three nights in Sanchez on the first floor overlooking the impressive Eglise Saint Louis in the lovely Chartrons district. Our room was quiet, spacious, beautifully furnished, and extremely comfortable. Some smells from the excellent bakery below waft up in the morning but this was not a problem. The apartments are a short walk from the river front, and the Jardin Public, and are well served by tram stops, a short distance away, which we travelled on regularly using our good value Bordeaux City Passes. The Chartrons neighbourhood has a village-like feel to it with a good range of cafes and restaurants close by including the excellent Chez Dupont bistro itself. Booking ahead seems most essential, and indeed we did several months in advance. Overall we had an excellent stay. Thoroughly recommended.

What a smart decision to stay here the night before boarding the river cruise ship in Bordeaux— less than a 10 min walk to the docked ship. The room (Seignouret) was roomy and very comfortable; great shower and quality hair dryer are important benchmarks for me. Although breakfast foods are available in the room, I walked just a few yards to a wonderful bakery for a fresh French breakfast and a chance to view Bordeaux local activity in the early morning. I could heap more praise but space doesn’t allow. Margot is the BEST host. Helpful note: The driver booked by Une Chambre from the airport can only contact you by phone at the arrivals gate — they do not come inside or meet you outside with a name sign. So be certain you can receive phone calls upon arrival (I had a new Orange SIM card but did not send Margot my French number when I installed it that morning). I wasted an hour of the driver’s time because of this. It was easy to grab a taxi though.

We really enjoyed our stay here. After a long flight from the US west coast we lugged our suitcases up the steep winding stairs to our room. Margot had provided excellent instructions to enter the building and to retrieve our room key. It was perfect to enjoy a delicious dinner right outside the hotel. We then dragged our jet lagged bodies up to the room for a marvelous sleep. When we awoke, we opened the windows and smelled the fuel burning from the bakery next door. We enjoyed two lovely breakfasts there. We took a local tour to several wine chateaus and fished the Citie du vin. We booked this tour before a cruise. We were pleasantly surprised to find our ship docked 2 blocks from the hotel. There was a problem with the booking service double selling our room one night, but Margot handled things perfectly. She advised that since we were already staying there, we got to stay. Although we never actually met anyone from the hotel, our stay was just what we wanted.

Very great location and rooms so well decorated, I litteraly fell in love with this hotel ! The beds are so confortable and the neighboroud is one of the best place in Bordeaux. Plus, it's very near to the Garonne's docks ! I come in Bordeaux very often and this is always the hotel I choose to stay ! Margot is very professional and always keen to help and welcome you like a princess, thank you very much ! Highly recommended :)
