라 메종 바스티드(La Maison Bastide)

As we were in town for the rugby we didn’t get to spend much time here, but what we did was spot on. Hosts let us leave our bags early which was super useful, furnished us with directions and were extremely welcoming. Short walk to the centre of town and extremely handy for tramline A which runs all the way to the airport in about 45 minutes. Very well priced as well, circa £120 for a room that could sleep 3.

This bed and breakfast of five suites is in a wonderful location for visiting all the sights of Bordeaux, just across the bridge from the Old Town. Four tram stops from the centre of town, you can also walk or cycle on bike paths all the way. Patricia and Christophe were welcoming and helpful hosts. The accomodation was very quiet, elegant and superbly comfortable. The breakfast was generous and varied. We stayed a week and it was hot, so we really appreciated the pool, shaded terrace and the air-conditioning. There is one suite on the ground floor, the rest are on the first floor.

Our stay at La Maison Bastide was outstanding! From the warm welcome and hospitality of the hosts Patricia and Christophe, the delicious breakfasts every morning (with the best homemade yogurts), and clean and well-decorated rooms, we could not ask for more! Patricia was very eager to share recommendations for restaurants, the best ways top get around, and all the tips we needed to have a successful trip. The property is very close to a Tram stop so all the sights are easily accessible. A beautiful home in a beautiful city!!

All the reviews are accurate! This is hands down one of the best places I've ever stayed 10*!! Patricia & her husband are super friendly & gracious! Super adorable room, delicious breakfast with yogurt, fruit, cheeses, salami & croissants. I stayed 2 night. Best sleep ever. Highly recommend!!

We really enjoyed our stay at La Maison Bastide. The room was clean and comfortable. Patricia was very welcoming and provided us with great advice on our first day. The house is full of character and a peaceful oasis in a vibrant city. We enjoyed breakfast around the large table with other guests with some great conversation. Certainly a place we would return to or recommend to friends.

The absolutely perfect spot to spend a few days in Bordeaux. Location: brilliant. Outside of the centre of town which meant it was quiet, but only round the corner from the tram/ bikes to get in to the centre proper. Near bars and supermarkets. Super convenient but also so peaceful. Accommodation and facilities: Faultless - we stayed for one night in a different room (due to flight changes) and then 5 days in the studio. Lovely room, clean and cool. Appreciated having the kitchenette for nights we wanted to stay in. Good shower! Patricia and Christophe share their terrace and garden with visitors - and we definitely took advantage! Lovely to take a dip in the plunge pool, sit and read a book, and eat and drink on the terrace. Breakfast: delicious - Patricia serves up something different every day, with a good supply of very decent coffee! I don't eat dairy but a good supply of fresh bread with homemade jam kept me very happy, whilst my husband tucked into pastries and homemade yoghurt. And best of all Patricia - she is so kind and friendly and goes out of her way to make your holiday the best it can be. We cannot thank her enough for her help with everything from finding us a bottle opener, to booking taxis, and sending on forgotten towels! I will be back for sure!

Patricia is wonderful host, friendly and helpful. I stayed in the converted attic room "Dunes" which was quiet, very clean, light-filled and comfortable. Breakfast was typical with fresh baguettes & croissants, homemade yogurt and coffee. Patricia served delicious homemade madeleines on the first morning and kindly accommodated my request for hard-boiled eggs so I could have some protein. The back yard was under construction with the addition of a swimming pool and new landscaping -- which will be great for summer guests. Location is convenient. Two-minute walk to light rail, 10 minutes to the Jardin Botanique and 25 minutes to the river walk. Unfortunately, the nearby Michelin-star restaurant, L'Oiseau Bleu was closed during my visit. Food options are spare in the immediate neighborhood and more available closer to Jardin Botanique. Patricia sent an email with most of this information in advance of the trip.

Patricia and Christophe were warm, friendly, very helpful setting up Covid screen for flight, recommending restaurants, sharing Bordeaux history, etc. Breakfast was lovely and the room had everything I could want-great wifi,TV, shower, kitchenette! Nicest place I’ve stayed!! Thank you!!

La Maison Bastide is a special place to stay if you are lucky enough to be in Bordeaux for any length of time. It's a home and a high quality hotel, meaning that guests get the best of all worlds - a chance to be welcomed by a local family and as much privacy as you'd expect from any top class accommodation in any exciting city. The rooms are clean and well furnished, the bathrooms clean and modern and the breakfasts extremely generous with caring home made touches. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts and every aspect of the stay, from impressively noise-proof glazing on the street-facing windows to the antique furniture, comfortable beds and home made preserves for breakfast, is a pleasure.
