The price for the location is excellent. It is near the middle of all of the main sights downtown. The building is old, which makes it interesting, but also can be challenging to get luggage to the 4th floor. The staff are very willing to help, but it is something to be aware of. The rooms were clean and there was room service every day.

Hotel Gambetta, being a 2-star property, is as youd expect, basic, clean, and no frills. The room was comfortable and clean, but relatively small. The staff were great, and very helpful. Location is very central and walkable, with parking approximately 300m away. There was noticeable street noise at night, and the blockout curtains didnt quite shield the night lights.

Recommend

Location, they say, is everything. If so, this hotel is the place to be. And the staff is tremendous. The room was small and a bit outdated but ask yourself why you’re there. Are you moving in and making it home or do you just need a place to sleep at night? I recommend

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was very small, no safe, or fridge. Peeling paint on walls, average bathroom decor and noise from street with window shut was still loud. Luggage was difficult to get into room with significant steps from the lift. No plug sockets on one side of the bed. Only 4 hangars supplied for 2 people was not enough for a 3 night stay especially with limited room to open & store suitcases. Great location however and friendly staff.

Very convenient for central Bordeaux, breakfasts excellent with plenty of choice. Everything lovely and clean, bedding wonderful - but it could do with a bit of redecoration, some areas looking tired and in need of painting. Parking €35 for two nights as special deal with hotel. All in all, excellent value.
