Absolutely loved our time at Mama Shelter - from the moment we walked in the staff were super friendly and helpful and the roof top bar was great. Rooms were bright and clean with plenty of space. Would recommend adding on breakfast downstairs as a highlight too.

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.

Très bel hôtel j'ai hâte d'y retourner

Ma chambre était grande propre bien équipée. On m'a accueillie au beau milieu de la nuit suite au retard de mon train le personnel est vraiment gentil. Le resto au rooftop est très bien et la vue est magnifique. Cependant j'ai entendu des propos très désobligeants de la part du 'manager" du resto envers les employées fémines. Ça m'a beaucoup dérangée, je ne suis plus retournée au restaurant pour le reste de mon séjour.
