Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“La Course townhouse is on a quiet street just steps from the green Jardin Public and the C tram that goes south to the Gare St. Jean. It’s a fine base for exploring boutiques and bars. There are bicycles, a small gym and steam room, and a wine cellar where tastings can be arranged.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Bordeaux.

Frommers review:

“Right opposite the Jardin Public park, this beautifully appointed luxury chambre d’hotes offers a friendly reception, a wine tasting cellar, and easy access to the shops of Chartrons. If you want to “push the boat out,” the “Under the Stars” suite has a glass roof and private terrace with a small pool.”

Telegraph review:

“La Course is a Maison d’Hôtes de Luxe. That translates as a former family home flipped into a spellbindingly luxurious B&B. Grab a bottle of Bordeaux from the cellar, steal a platter of snacks from the fridge, then snuggle up in front of the log fire.”

Excellent value, stylish townhouse

We loved the town-house feel of being close to the centre of the city whilst in a quiet residential area. The decoration and ambiance of the public areas is fantastic, and everything is so well thought out - from the bicycles which could be borrowed, to the honesty-box kitchen (snacks and drinks) and the beautiful cellar. The breakfast, which we ate in the tiny courtyard, was made to order and was delicious.

The best home away from home in Bordeaux!!!

Such a beautiful charming building and home to stay in Bordeaux. This was our second visit to Bordeaux and to Maison La Course and it was wonderful once again and we will return to stay here every time! All the staff are amazing and make this residence fantastic and allow you to enjoy the home and all of its special attributes. Special thanks to you all!!! Breakfast was amazing and made to order and served in the lovely dining room. Located close to the beautiful gardens, playground and carousel for our young daughter to enjoy. close walk to the lovely Chartrons where we enjoyed the beautiful bistro’s and shopping. We walked by foot to all the key landmarks but also close to tram if you prefer not to walk. Highly recommend the Uriel suite and this home away from home in Bordeaux!!!!

Absolutely nothing - loved everything!!!!

Honeymoon weekend at La Course

Clothilde, Coline, Léa and Lucie went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. Our room, Suite Soires was very clean, specious and the bed was super comfy. The location was perfect, all the main attractions were in walking distance. We loved our walks in the Botanical gardens just outside of the hotel. We would love to stay here in any future visits to Bordeaux!

The pool was stated as heated however despite the staffs best efforts the water was too cold for the whole of our weekend stay

French charm and gorgeous accommodation

Our room was on the second floor - Superior suite and had a large bedroom, a separate bunk room and large bathroom and separate toilet. it is one of 5 suites. Downstairs is a lovely kitchen dining room and outdoor tables for breakfast which is cooked and served for you by delightful staff. there is a wine cellar and glasses of wine can be purchased. it’s a beautiful old but refurbished three level French terraced place. Lea was incredibly helpful when we were arriving later and provided instructions as to how to access our room via text as well as email. Would definitely stay here again !

A place to unwind and relax but still feel at home during your stay.

I don’t know where to start! This place is a true gem and wish could have stayed longer than one night. So many little details that made the stay feel so relaxing. The bath tub is out of my dreams. The staff were so friendly and warm, and the breakfast was a great. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

A little oasis in the middle of Bordeaux

Loved staying La Course, must be the most friendly and service oriented guesthouse I've been to. Wonderful breakfast and bikes for the guests to use. Too bad we stayed only for one night. Will definitely come back!

Our room had a bath tub with no cover or curtains, making it difficult to shower without splashing down the bathroom. But minor detail really, everything else was really great.
