    Lovely clean hotel with excellent communal facilities

    Charging for luggage storage is not OK. The bar was not opened at all across our stay but we were able to use the bar space to hang out. Washer and driver are expensive for a hostel style property.

    We thoroughly enjoyed the communal facilities at this property. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the kitchen was large, spotless, and fully equipped. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful throughout our three-night stay. Additionally, the hotel's location is within walking distance to all essential amenities. We were so impressed that we have already booked another property in the same group for later this month.

    The sink in our room didn't drain well. Another sink in the kitchen was blocked.

    The hotel provides good, clean simple room accommodation at a reasonable price. The breakfast is good. There are also some (limited) kitchen facilities. Happy to recommend it.

    Nothing bad to say!

    Great stay in Bordeaux. It's not the most central location, but the Tram is only 5 minutes walk away which gets you into the centre within 5-10 minutes. The hotel itself was very clean and made for a great stay. Very simple check in, no fuss and had everything I needed in my room!

    Meninger Hotel was great and I will definitely look at staying at some of their other locations in the future. We had only one small issue and their friendly team sorted it out for us right away.

    The breakfast was a bit dull: I don't eat hummus, salad and falafel in the morning. People from the residential apartments opposite can see into the room. The room does not have a safe so you have to carry your valuables with you to breakfast. The fact that you are requested to sort out your tableware at the end of breakfast: I paid the hotel a hefty sum to do this and I think I ought to avoid work whilst on holiday. Hotel very geared towards groups of young (apparently affluent) generation with pool tables you etc.

    I liked the space and the quiet when I was there. Very handy for the train station. There was nothing really stand-out about this hotel. There were a few minor negatives but nothing that would necesarily put me off staying there again.

    My main gripe was the level of comfort provided by the beds. This was my second stay at this hotel and in this regard this comment applies to both stays but for different rooms. The mattresses on the beds provided soft and un-even support and the duvet was too heavy for me at this time of year. Overall on both stays I had a poor nights sleep. Which is a shame as in other respects the hotel was excellent.

    I liked the way the breakfasts were organised and that it had a kitchen where guests could do their own catering. Also the level of cleanliness exceeded my expectations.

    What pisses me off most: there is no phone in the room, so in order to ask for an iron you go down to the reception, ask for it and then they say: "Oh, we can give it to you only if you leave you id or passport as a guarantee". So you need to go back to your room, get it, then get back to the reception and wait for the queue to finish so that you could get an iron. Very clien-oriented approach. There is no room cleaning service every day until you ask for you. But basically we stayed 3 days so it was fine, no issue.

    A total value for money. Located close to the train station, 5-7 minutes through the bridge to it, from where you can take a tram and get to the city center in 10 minutes (3 stops). The room is not big but was clean. Clean bed sheets, clean modern bathroom. Everything worked, we had no issue at all. Staff at reception were friendly, always ready to help.

    I had a major issue with the on-duty reception team rejecting important mail I had delivered to the hotel even though they agreed to do so ahead of my arrival. This cost me valuable time and money to go on a 20km round journey mission to retrieve it.

    Clean, modern and friendly staff
