Villa Reale, Bordeaux
Expert reviews
“With a prime view of Place du Parlement, Villa Reale blends the comforts of a design-driven home with the convenience of being in the center of pedestrian-friendly action on a pretty square close to main tram lines. The 18th-century structure offers well-stocked kitchens in three air-conditioned suites.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Bordeaux.
“La Villa Reale, built in 1750, offers three sumptuously appointed self-catering apartments overlooking the Place du Parlement, a cobbled 17th-century Italianate square, one of Bordeaux’s most iconic locations. Expect some serious five-star cosseting.”

Lovely stay in a very secured, beautiful and clean apartment
The recommendations of Karl’s was fantastic. The location couldn’t be beaten. Close to everything including shops/ restaurants, parking and tram. Felt very safe. The apartment was fully soundproof. Very clean and beautifully furnished.
There are no lifts, but we were informed. Couldn’t get the speakers to work (didn’t try very hard but some instructions next to them could be handy).

Fantastic location and very good apartment.
The location was fantastic - the best reason to return to the apartment.
The bathroom could have been a bit more spacious and the building should have had a lift.

Great location, good sized room and living room, but too dark.
Furniture were impractical. Sofa may have been very clean but did not give the feeling of being clean. Too much black decor.

perfect
very convenient place to visit city center. and staff’s respond is quite good. we didn’t have any problem during the stay. comfortable for my family(4 people)
If use sofa bed in the living room, little bit noisy because living room is in front of the common open place. but it’s not big deal. If prépare year plug, will be no problem.

gorgeous, centrally located apartment in the heart of Bordeaux
very roomy, gorgeous design, perfect location. Laundry and small kitchenette was very helpful mid-trip. on a beautiful plaza with restaurants and cafes right at the door, yet the apartment was very quiet.
no elevator so not appropriate if you have extra large luggage or mobility issues.

Must stay for travellers who love modern facilities and equipment - home away from home
Very modern, all amenities and equipment worked absolutely well. They have a modern two-in-one oven and microwave. Perfect space saving and sleek unit. The place is compact yet spacious, with high ceilings, crockery are very complete. There is also a drying rack which is perfect for travellers after washing clothes without having to hang out the laundry all over the unit. It even has a google nest which is a night light. Wifi worked very well. Very well thought our plan for a unit. Love the fact we didn’t need to carry any keys nor keycards with us. Hence very calm and peaceful about not worrying about calling any locksmiths.
Everything was perfect. Merci.

Beautiful apartment in a lovely building. Everything was really thought out. Lots of nice touches like Nespresso pods and jam and the Bose speakers.
Nothing of note to not like.

Fantastic property. Great location
The main bedroom does not have a toilet in the master bedroom. The bathroom is located near the kitchen. Also, there is no elevator. We had to carry our baggage up 3 flights of stairs.

Lovely stay in a charming and authentic apt in Bordeaux. Fantastic location, nicely decorated and v
It was really easy to check in, although not ideal to have to walk up to the third-floor with all of our luggage. I think it was a fair price based on that and the apartment itself was lovely and very comfortable. We loved the location and were impressed that it could be right on the place without being noisy.
My only complaint was that there was no elevator. I also would have liked to have conditioner for my hair.

We had a very enjoyable stay in a comfortable apartment .
Location was absolutely fabulous, close to everything . If I had any queries, responses were always replied to by Alice very quickly . Bonus for me was a washing machine and dryer! and cool air conditioning on a very hot week.
Perfect in every way
