InterContinental Bordeaux - Le Grand Hotel

Great location. Lovely city.

Gordon Ramsay restaurant was not as good as expected. Wish we had taken a walk towards the river before dinner as we found a street full of good eating places.

I asked for a quiet room and got one well away from the elevator at the end of a corridor. A bit of a hike to reception but perfect for us for our 3 night stay. Breakfast served until 10.30am which suited our late evenings out in the city and late dinners. the food being varied and plentiful with chef cooking station for omelettes etc Spar facilities looked good but we only used the pool and steam rooms and the jacuzzi one floor up on the roof. There relaxing beds for a snooze afterwards and a tea room all within the complex

Whilst the roof terrace was a romantic and lovely place to spend a few of the late hours viewing the city from 6 floors up the drinks cost are exorbitant (3 soft drinks, 1 coffee, 1 Calvados & 1 cocktail was £75.00)

Nice old hotel, good service

Staff were excellent, restaurant good

WIFI was terrible, weak and kept dropping. Our room was supposed to be Superior but it was tiny with no view.
