3 star hotels in Aquitaine

Super hotel in an excellent location just yards from the historic harbour. Staff are friendly, helpful and professional. Clean and well maintained property. Smashing breakfast buffet too.

Can’t speak highly enough about the location. Hotel itself was solid and very good for the price. Air conditioning in room 405 should probably be looked at. Didn’t work effectively even on not especially warm nights.

A quirky, cosy hidden away hotel in the centre of La Rochelle near to the marine and main restaurant eating area. There is no parking facility at the hotel, but there are carparks nearby. It is a dog friendly hotel with simple, small and comfortable rooms. Good breakfast.

Super location, great views from our 4th floor window. Bijou but great for two. Friendly service, staff happy to help in English if needed. You do have to find somewhere to park if travelling by car. We used Place de Verdun (17 euro per day).

Room was too warm. It was 37C when we arrived and we needed to cool the room down.We had air-conditioning but it was useless. Both of us barely slept the first night because of the heat and humidity in the room. Would expect a lot better from a fairly expensive hotel. Breakfast room needs to be decorated or a least some decent seating.

Small but Nice We loved the location of the hotel and it the room was very clean and nice but it was small, especially the bathroom. It was adequate for 1 night but longer we would have felt very cramped. Otherwise it is a good hotel with a great location. The breakfast was good too.

Balcony view Very friendly staff; my only comment is that it would have been nice to check in at 1:30 PM instead of 3:30 PM since the room was available; we had just flown in from the US and jet lag was awful........

The hotel is in an excellent location with easy access to restaurants, shopping, and the beach. The staff was exceptionally professional, friendly, helpful and polite.

Perfect location with a sea view from balcony. Excellent helpfulness and friendliness from hotel staff. Brilliant place to stay in Biarritz.

Perfect location to explore this beautiful town. Right in the heart of town and everything is walkable from the hotel.

Fabulous plus Fabulous little hotel in a terrific location. Wonderful friendly staff who offered help on every situation. Room was well appointed with the most comfy bed. The lively restaurants in the square added to the experience. Highly recommend staying here and enjoying the fabulous hospitality of Sophie and her team.

My wife and I have discussed how we should respond. We could not wish for a better, central location. Everything was just a stroll away. First, we thought the staff we met - the young ladies at the reception desk - were polite and immensely helpful, although the one who showed us on arrival the "upgraded" room carefully avoided its drawbacks. An example was the toilet which was located in a cupboard...

Superb breakfast. Close to Sarlat but steep walk back.

Location is a plus and minus. Its in a beautiful quiet setting but a long walk down (and back up !) a steep hill into town for restaurants and general sightseeing but where there is very limited parking. The Hotel itself is outstanding. The proprietor could not be more helpful. The breakfast was very generous and a culinary adventure with some different cheeses and meats every day. It was wet while...

Decent option in Sarlat Slightly out of the town centre, but within walking distance and did all the basics really well.

What a beautiful hotel, amazing swimming pool, incredible French breakfast. All local produce with homemade specialities. The quality of the hotel is down to Christine,our host, who takes such pride in making you feel welcome. Looking forward to our next visit already.

Overall, it was a pleasant base for our three-day trip to Dordogne. Our lovely host, Christine, was welcoming and helpful in recommending places to visit and restaurants to try, and the breakfast she prepared was delicious. The room was clean and functional.

Charming hotel on the outskirts with a 10 minute walk down to the medieval heart. Catherine, the owner is friendly and helpful. The place is clean and the rooms are comfortable. Parking is very private. The pool area is nice and there is a long balcony to sit out.

We really enjoyed our stay at Alfred Hotels - Port Vieux! The hotel is right by the ocean and surrounded by many restaurants and the whole town within walking distance. The staff was very friendly, the bed super comfy, and the breakfast quite yummy! The hotel was cosy and perfect for a weekend getaway.

Such a lovely hotel with the kindest staff!! Everything was homely and clean. Special note to Alex & Luc for such a warm welcome, and to the whole staff for being so lovely and accomodating! The hotel is in a great spot close to a beautiful bay for swimming. Would definitely recommend 😊 perfect place for a solo trip.

From the moment we arrived, the service at The Alfred Hotel was absolutely exceptional. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our stay perfect — every request was handled with a smile. Our room was spotless and beautifully designed, with a balcony overlooking the city and the sea — truly breathtaking at sunrise.

I had such a great stay at this hotel! The place is super clean, modern, and really well located, close to everything but still quiet and relaxing. The room was comfortable and had everything I needed, and the staff were honestly the nicest, always smiling and happy to help. The vibe of the hotel is so calm and welcoming, I instantly felt at home. It’s the perfect spot for a weekend getaway or a few...

I had an amazing stay at Alfred Hotels – Port-Vieux. The rooms were modern, clean, and very comfortable. The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the port and close to many great restaurants and attractions. Everything exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting...

Great beds and great location. I liked the interior design a lot and the staff was very helpful and welcoming.

Checked in with friendly helpful staff Parking was 12 EUR The places was great and all recently done up The only down side is it is 10 mins walk back from town on dark streets ok for a man but don’t think for a single girl

Very enjoyable breakfast with many healthy choices. Good coffee too. Good Boulangerie opposite.

Lovely, friendly place in a quieter part of La Rochelle but convenient and accessible. Warmly greeted and very well looked after - nothing was too much trouble and the breakfast was amazing!

Lovely hotel and room. Slightly noisy road but the shutters help. Beds are great, linen a little harsh and pillows a bit lumpy. Good amenities in the room and friendly staff. Would stay again.

Good value nice hotel Lovely hotel very nicely decorated Near to the centre of town Didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment

Nice hotel with very friendly staff. Easy walk to restaurants across a nice park .

Small rooms but very comfortable beds. Excellent welcoming staff. Édit : the person who repliés reviews spoil the hard work of every employee. Shame

Perfect location, very centre and close to everything. Just a small room.

Front desk staff were super friendly, and accommodating. Rooms are good, perfect for a few nights. Breakfast buffet was nice, with many options available. The hotel is centrally located, ideal for first time visitors.

This is a great location and my room was large for an inner-city room. The shower layout wasn't ideal and the toilet was on a step which was a little weird. Otherwise the service was very good and the staff was accommodating when I arrived early for my room.

Address validated and retained for a future stay in Bordeaux. After a warm welcome, we appreciated the style of the hotel and the room. We were able to enjoy shopping, bars/restaurants and monuments during the day until night, all on foot while staying close to the hotel. See you soon

Sleepless night guaranteed. No double glazing so ruined night

10/10 no complaints Hotel is fantastic. Great staff. Big room, lots of space, very clean.

Delightful hotel, conveniently located. A charming hotel in the old town of Biarritz and well located. It's in a pedestrian street so taxis set down / pick up in the nearby square and it's an easy walk from there. Hotel lobby is just a corridor. The rooms (recently refurbished) we were allocated were large and quiet - at the rear of the property. The tropical decor is interesting if misplaced in...

The location of the property was outstanding. The Tiki bar was also very good

Wonderful property with helpful workers. I had a brief issue with being double-charged, but they got that fixed quickly. The area is lovely: Port-Vieux is covered in restaurants and shops and is inaccessible to cars, so it's a very popular pedestrian spot. Unfortunately, this makes it a less than optimal choice for morning people, as the food market across the street does not close until midnight and...

My favorite in Biarritz, will come back! THANK YOU again for an amazing stay in your beautiful hotel. We wanted to send a quick note to mention that Elliott’s and Loraine’s help with getting our room earlier, making it easy with the luggage and late check out - all of this made the vacation in Biaritz extremely amazing. The Palmito suite with the terrace also made a difference - we C spent time...

palmito is wonderful! such a nice place. they really care, so many details. recommended!!!

Great experience, amazing location. The hotel is in a beautiful building

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean, very small , comfortable. Continental Breakfast, beautiful cheeses and breads.

Right in the heart of where you want to be in La Rochelle

Location was easy to get to local attractions.

Lovely welcoming staff, comfortable beds, a very positive experience, will definitely stay here again

Such a huge difference between this Ibis and the one we stayed in at Montparnasse the night before. Clean, spacious room, a/c that worked and friendly staff made for a pleasant overnight stay…tasty breakfast as well!

Wonderful location and perfect warm welcome throughout. All the team were amazing and very professional. Room 19 was magical being in the tower. The menu offered was super and of fabulous quality.

Very clean room, staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The hotel is perfectly situated for exploring the old town of Sarlat and we are already planning to stay there again. However, we will probably book a larger room. The room we had was perfectly acceptable from an amenities and decor point of view, just a little on the small side.

Lovely old hotel, centrally located, with a very helpful staff and a wonderful breakfast.

Stayed here a few nights with a group of friends. This is a nicely located hotel three or four minutes walk into the town centre. There is lots of parking immediately opposite. Being an old building brings with it lots of character as well as rooms being scattered about over several floors. There is a very small lift, thankfully, that will take guests up to the 1st and 2nd floors. Many rooms however...

Interesting tower room but very very noisy traffic and room very basic.

We stayed two nights at the La Coulverine, paying E116 per night for a suite large enough for a family of four. We had a fair experience. The hotel is located right on the edge of the medieval town (the old ramparts) and our room was on the third floor, with two rooms. A very large main room with a double bed and a second, much smaller room with two singles. We found the suite a perfect size for us...

Great location in the middle of the Chartrons district, perfect base for exploring the city. Room was clean and had everything that we needed. Reception and check in/out was easy and handy having a 2pm check in time on the arrival day. I would stay again if visiting and recommend to others.

An excellent location and very helpful staff

Nice stay The hotel is nice and clean but most of all, it’s walking distance from the city center.

The receptionist was really friendly

Budget stay in a great location The hotel is situated on a street of cafes and shops and it is easy to find. It is equidistant between stops for the B and C trams and also near bus stops. On arriva in Bordeaux, I walked from St Jean train station and it was a pleasant 45 min stroll along the river. The economy double was small but more than adequate for a one night stay. The bed was very comfortable...

If you come by car, the hotel is just a few metres from an underground car park. Really convenient. Breakfast was copious and varied and rooms were well appointed. The building which is on a vibrant, trendy street has an historic feel. Would definitely go back.

The reception very kind, gave us a clear instruction as we checked in at 10pm. For one night all good.

This was an overnight stopover driving through from Spain to Paris... It was as expected. The receptionist was very nice and helpful and the accommodation had been recently improved. A little outside of town, and the locals (at the corner shop) were to be avoided.

I must say that the rooms could use a touch of freshening up and feel somewhat dated. Our room, in particular, lacked blinds due to a malfunction, and the curtains were not sufficient to block out the light. Also, a little air conditioning would be nice for the summer months. However, the reception staff were very pleasant.

Close to the docks Very good for one night, close to the docks, renovated rooms, bedding, shared bathroom, friendly staff

One night to put up with it. Not too bad but the car park is in a poor state and up the street from the hotel entrance .. which is not great when it is raining and you have to drag your luggage along uneven pavements and over bumps and potholes all while getting soaking wet.

Very comfortable A hotel undergoing renovations that is very good in terms of the renovated rooms! Everything is there for a truly comfortable stay! In my opinion, the breakfast could be improved a little by expanding the selection...very poor compared to the quality of the hotel.

I was initially hesitant to stay at a hotel near the train station due to concerns about noise and crowds. However, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at this hotel, located just a 3-minute walk from Gare de Bordeaux Saint Jean. It's remarkably safe. The proximity to Tram C/D, which runs frequently, and the 10-minute ride to downtown Bordeaux make it incredibly convenient. The breakfast,...

Hotel is by the train station. Rooms have a good size, plenty to tidy. Staff is very warm and welcoming, 24hr reception. Breakfast is very good, sweet and salty choices. Bottles of water with tea or coffee available in the bedroom.

I really don’t understand the negative reviews. Yes there is no elevator but that is not the hotels fault. They brought our luggage up to our room so I don’t see the issue that others are having. The staff are extremely friendly and gave us water and bottled beverages whenever we entered the lobby. Yes the rooms don’t have air conditioning but they have a cooling fan that they can help you put ice...

Really good place to stay for a budget hotel rooms are ample and well equipped beds are comfortable. The welcoming note and gifts went down as storm with our group the only problem was the stairs if you have limited mobility as there is no lift to the other floors but the staff went above and beyond to be helpful and moved one of our group to a lower floor. As for location its literally the other side...

Me and My friend stayed there last night in Room 116. The room was nwat bathroom beautiful, and very spacious considering there was two twin beds. A nice overlook from the balcony of the train station and Broadway.

It is a classic hotel with history. There is no elevator (i m at the 2nd, so not too bad), but it is right across the Gare St. Jean, very nearby yo move around downtown Bordeaux.

Bairritz stay before Camino Very friendly and helpful owner on site. I was allowed to leave my bag in the room ahead of normal check-in time. The room was spacious and clean. Plenty of restaurants within a short walk. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely family-run hotel located very central to restaurants and shopping in Biarritz. Very enjoyable stay and friendly people, good breakfast and spacious room.

Lovely period hotel, perfect for family of 4. Lovely period hotel, we had a double bed and two singles, in Two bedrooms, joined by a shared bathroom. Perfect for our family of 4, with 2 children. It got very hot in the day, but we were in a subterranean appartment which stayed cool and had a small terrace next to a bubbling water feature and the garden, so was safe to leave the doors and windows...

Nice hotel in town centre Nice comfortable room with sea view in the distance. Great location for town centre although bars and restaurants closed early (not hotel's fault).

Good location, walking distance to centre

This had a very lovely boutique hotel feeling. It has a lot of character and a very friendly and accommodating staff. I would highly suggest this place to others visiting for first time.

the room was clean, towels replaced every day, nice location facing the sea and the beach (just across the road), hot shower really appreciated at this period of the year, nice bedding. Stephane and Jerome are great host and always ready to help. The atmosphere is nice and simple at the same time. A nice hotel to stay and come back without hesitation. Good stuff

Clean room, lovely personnel, everything I wanted

Very personable experience. Both owners took a lot of interest in us and really took good care of us. Very well run, boutique hotel. We would highly recommend it.

Fun design oriented place with the best hosts possible! We learned a lot about the history of Royan and her architecture marvels. Great breakfast, perfect view of the beach but most of all, a super caring staff

Pleasant and Comfortable Stay in Royan I had a lovely stay at Seakub hotel. The owners were both accommodating and friendly during my stay. My room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I would highly recommend Seakub to other travelers looking for a pleasant and affordable stay in Royan.

Lovely little hotel, excellent with our 3 small dogs, ground floor room near entrance was perfect.

We enjoyed staying at the Maison des Peyrat for 3 nights. This was a nice place to stay and enjoy the countryside instead of the city vibe in Sarlat-la-Caneda. It was an easy walk down the hill to the town. It's uphill to return to the hotel, but we did without issue. (70 year olds!) The couple that owns/runs it were very friendly and helpful. The rooms fit the property which is quite a farmhouse...

This quirky, quiet hotel offers a superb breakfast and large comfortable rooms. There is a lovely after-dinner gathering offered outside in the cool evening air, and the views are fantastic. The map on ******* is deceiving, however, because access to the village for dinner is downhill—250 feet. One needs to be in excellent hiking condition to get down and then back up! One big plus—we were there...

Owners superb, excellent position above town, excellent parking.

The accommodation and surrounding environment was lovely.

The common areas of the old stone farmhouse are beautiful. The rooms are adequate. The property is tranquil, and walkable to the Old Town, although down a bit of a hill.

What a lovely hotel! From a very comfortable bed and modern bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower to a delicious breakfast all was extremely well. This characterful house sits in a big garden with plenty of trees, seating outside for guests and a swimming pool on the other side of the building. It is a ten minute picturesque walk into Sarlat which means you can walk off your supper as you return...

Comfortable Really good check in, the receptionist was very welcoming and gave top tips on where to eat dinner. Room comfortable although due to a guest experiencing some sort of issue during the night there was a lot of shouting, running along the corridor and doors banging from around 2am for about an hour. Unfortunately i did not get much sleep as a result. We did not have breakfast at the hotel...

Warmth of welcome and friendliness of owners and staff. Place to stay next time

A nice little hotel. A very nice little hotel which was handy to everything but in a very quiet area only 10 mins from the airport and walkable to the beaches and shops. There is a nearby small shop, coffee shop and it’s close to an area with restaurants etc. the hotel does not have an outside space. Breakfast is additional and we did not avail of it as we preferred to go out for a later brunch. The...

Nice hotel, nice staff and nearby the town centre Very nice stay, cosy bedroom and 10 minutes walking to the town centre. The guy who was in charge was very nice to us, and helping us with all our questions and needs. 10 out of 10

Clean and comfy room, friendly staff. Location is nice, walking distance from the beach, bars and restaurants.

If you are looking for a cheap, friendly and central hotel then you have found it. Willing to do what they could and help where possible. Printed out some documents for us and also booked a taxi to take us back to the airport for our red-eye flight home. Nice, small, retail store around and a 10minute walk away from the beach!

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at the IBIS Sarlat. The staff went out of their way to make you feel really welcome and were incredibly helpful making suggestions on places to visit to make your stay memorable. When there was a problem with the TV, in the room, the staff did their utmost to repair it. When they realised they would have to call someone in, to solve the problem, they immediately arranged...

Average stay The Hotel seems to have new faces as regards Day to Day Management, not as friendly or inviting as their previous Team

We arrived late and the concierge was a really kind and helpful despite her limited English. Although the hotel is about 10 min walk to the medieval downtown I felt was great away from the noise and easy access to main road to continue our journey.

Great service, breakfast was good. Clean en nice room. About a 10-15 minute walk to the center.

The room was spacious, and very comfortable. The staff was all excellent and went out of their way to help us.

Short walk to city centre, secure parking for our motorcycles which is a must, exceptionally clean. Would definitely use again.

The hotel is located at the entrance of the pedestrian street in Pau. It is a very old hotel with warm service and free underground parking. We were upgraded to a huge round room on the top floor with a good view of the balcony outside the window. The bedroom is full of quaint old furniture. The bathroom is very new. The only thing that needs improvement is that the carpet is a bit old. For visiting...

Great location. Free parking. Electric car charging.

Facilities: old, no air conditioning Sanitation: not very clean Environment: in the city center Service: OK

Lovely 3 star hotel, rooms are large shower worked well but the attachment to the wall didnt grip so you couldnt alter the height., bed was very comfortable and I loved the pillows. The toiletries are basic, but there. Breakfast was not worth the money very basic buffet with mini pastries, bread, cheese, hams, yoghurt. Sorry but I expect a proper croissant in France

Location very central and the room was a good size, however when we went up to the room, couldn’t get into the wardrobe (which had the spare towels) because the door was broken. Told reception who sent someone to fix it but it still wasn’t perfect. There was only 1 coffee pod for 2 people so had to ask for another one. The car park is really small and not designed for today’s bigger car models. Yes...

Correct. It is an old hotel in which some of the rooms have been renovated. The one that corresponded to me was and therefore it was quite good. Removing the traditional carpet of French hotels, which I don't like, the rest is fine. Spacious, with a renovated bathroom and a bed that, without being spectacular, is correct. Breakfast, discreet. Of course, as favorable points to highlight, there is a...

We stayed at this Inis Hotel for a rugby/sightseeing weekend. It’s a stroll from the station but fantastically located next to the bustling market, bars and restaurants. Rooms are compact but have everything you need. There is a seating area downstairs and a good value bar. Staff are super friendly.

I really enjoyed my 7-night stay in this hotel in early September. It is deally located in terms of accessibility to the 1b airport bus stop, the Old Port, nice shops/restaurants and the most important sights. The staff were very friendly and helpful e.g. when I sought advice re my trip to Île de Ré. The breakfast was delicious and well supervised.

Day one of Holiday Great stay, friendly staff

Just what I needed for a coupe of nights. Comfortable bed, clean room. Right in the centre of the town. 2 minutes from the bus station where you can get a cheap bus from and to the airport.

The rooms are extremely simple and small. Breakfast is sparse. The air conditioning in our room wasn't working, so they moved us at 9:30 p.m. I won't be returning to this hotel.

Centrally placed hotel within easy walking distance of the centre of La Rochelle, port etc. Standard Ibis rooms, modern but with very small shower rooms - really small! Beds were comfortable and the room was quiet (ours looked over the street but was still quiet at night). No corridor noise but doors were loud if left to close. Everything very clean. Good buffet continental style breakfast with...

Friendly and efficient meeting on check-in Ground floor seems recently refurbished and lots modern and stylish. Good continental breakfast Myself and one colleague had rooms on the 2nd floor that were a distinctly different and older decor that is showing its age and quite tired. Other colleague on 1st floor had the new modern refurb that they rated quite highly. Overall good location, friendly...

Great location for central Pau. Friendly staff. Some facilities in need of service.

Amazing place and the staff are just lovely. Nicest we have ever met.

I got exactly what I expected, a no frills standard Ibis. Rooms were compact but comfortable. Cleanliness was good. Car parking was a bit of a challenge as the spaces are limited. Nothing special, but nothing to complain about either.

Great hotel, very close to the centre and all the bars and restaurants. Helpful staff, nice rooms.

This hotel is well situated for visiting Pau and has good parking. However the rooms are much smaller than the usual Ibis rooms so I wouldn’t want to stay for more than one night. The sink is in the room as the bathroom is so small. That said the room was spotlessly clean and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was good, though the staff seemed overstretched so the buffet wasn’t replenished regularly.
