Yndo Hotel, Bordeaux
Expert reviews
“Five-star service and comforts fuse with all the charm and grace of an 18th-century hôtel particulier at this sophisticated boutique hotel. Owner Agnès Guiot du Doignon knows a thing or two about design, and public areas are akin to a contemporary art gallery – the bold artwork by contemporary Bordeaux artist Yannick Fournié is utterly compelling. Twelve beautiful rooms are individually designed.”
“The Yndo opened a few years ago and has brought some welcome understated luxury to the hotel scene in Bordeaux. This is really a special experience. You’ll find it on a quiet side road only a few minutes stroll from place Gambetta and the lovely shops on rue Judaïque. Owner Agnès Guiot Du Doignon has decorated in beautifully understated but hugely luxurious style, with wonderful paintings and furniture throughout.”
“Behind the pale limestone exterior of an impeccably restored hotel particulier is a delightful surprise: a five-star design hotel. Yndô is a refined and tranquil retreat in the heart of the city, blending bold contemporary style with boutique comforts and outstanding service.”

We had a really lovely few days at Hotel Yndo and would not hesitate to stay again.
Location perfect for all our excursions, walking distance to city centre. Hôtel was nicely tucked away and quiet. Staff were fabulous, decor and cleanliness superb. Beautiful building, interesting history.

Will be coming back!
It was lovely and meticulously designed. And the services throughout the day made it all the better! The staff also knew who each guest was and were able to accommodate as needed!
The breakfast was too expensive 🤪

Really nice
The property is amazing, very comfortable and nicely decorated. We were welcomed with home made chocolate cake. The room was spacious and the facilities were modern and great quality. The location is perfect too. So close to h the e jardin public with a great playground, natural history museum and a great carousel. The restaurant food was delicious but not really good if you’re dairy free or gluten free.
They charged extra (40€ per night) to have an extra bed for our child. Not sure where he would have slept otherwise. I have never been charged by a hotel for this before. We had asked for breakfast to be packed on the morning we were leaving because we had to catch the train early and we only had a few pastries in a bag. The lady said we would have bread and crepes ready for us in the mornings but it wasn’t. Given the price of breakfast, that was disappointing. The we’re not dairy free options in the desserts so we were given some meringue with fruits and again for the price that was disappointing.

Quiet and comfortable upscale accommodations nicely located in Bordeaux
Beautifully restored historic mansion building tastefully furnished in modern art pieces. Many famous landmarks are within walking distance. Several excellent restaurants are nearby. Staff is friendly. Property is immaculate.
Nothing much. Certain attractions were a bit far away.

Very good
The hotel is charming, and its interiors are beautiful and well-designed. Most of the staff were very helpful, but one person was quite grumpy if we're honest. This is not something you'd expect at a four-star hotel.
The hotel details parking. Parking is not available at the hotel—well, there is one car space in the courtyard, but that's not for us mortals, but maybe that's how they get around that description. I tracked my car to a public car park around the corner. On-site parking should be removed from their website and hotel apps. Also, the bathroom was tired. There were tiles missing or coming up off the floor.

Happy to recommend any time.
Reception staff was very friendly helpful. Took their time to welcome us properly and provided good advice on where to go and where to eat. Lovely interior design, with large room and extremely comfortable bed.
Location is a little bit off the beaten track but short walk to areas with bars, restaurants, good food and shopping.

A Welcome Experience
We are generally pragmatic travellers and do not indulge in this sort of “experience” hotel, but the Yndo is exceptionally well appointed and well located. We - including our small dog - thoroughly enjoyed our room, the generous breakfast, the originally furnished common rooms, and a peaceful courtyard. The staff were attentive and very patient with our requests. Within easy walking distance of many shops and sights.
The parking lot was a bit of a challenge to exit.

Crazy Room, Amazing stay :) (only when you have been in a crazy room you will understand).
Hidden away and yet so close to everything. Wonderful Mansion in the heart of Bordeaux. No external guests make the experience like visiting a friend at home. Loved it.

The experience you're looking for from an independent Belgian.
In the middle of Downtown Bordeaux at walking distance of everything. Excillerating design combined with maximum comfort. Not a cost was spared to make the rooms as enjoyable as possible.

Lovely boutique hotel tucked away a few streets away from the hustle and bustle.
Staff were friendly. Room was great, clean, plenty of space. Breakfast was very good, selection of breads and spreads, option of a fruit plate, granola and yoghurt and then a selection of egg dishes, my wife really liked the detox fruit juice.

An excellent stay in a beautiful design hotel
The hotel is extremely stylish and is centrally located being just a short stroll to the main areas of Bordeaux. We had a pre-dinner drink on the terrace. Beautifully presented and it was a very enjoyable environment to be in. Overall a lovely hotel and we would return if travelling to Bordeaux again.
The TV kept dropping out of signal so watching a late movie was impossible.

I loved staying in this hotel. The staff was friendly and gave great recommendations.
The old structure/mansion was converted to sizeable rooms with contemporary furnishings and playful touches. The room was large and it felt luxurious. The staff was excellent!
I would say that although the location is considered downtown, it is a bit out of the center. Some walking is involved.

I highly recommend this hotel
We loved the design, the high ceiling, the room was well equipped with Dyson hairdryer and even steamer. The room was super clean, inner yard was calm

Superb boutique hotel with first class staff
Excellent little hotel with friendly, charming staff. Superb interiors and location
Please consider sound proofing and insulating the walls as I had the inconvenience of listening to the room next door every word. For the hotel to be truly luxury I would suggest sound proofing

Not Pretentious, tasteful, fun and memorable .
Personalized service. Food made at your request. Expertly done Breakfast. Creatively designed room. The Crazy room was Crazy good and Roomy like a mini suite. Well stocked wine and liquors at the lobby area. Beautiful modern decor utilized In a classic space .
Very little not worth mentioning really !

Stylish hotel with an excellent location, great attention by staff and cloister silence indoors to be able to have a splendid stay. Honorary mention to the exquisite breakfast with homemade croissant and outstanding crêpes.

Fabulous- beautiful hotel in a stunning city. Would definitely return.
Amazing location, staff were so friendly and helpful. Rooms were beautiful and clean. Facilities such as the steamer and the hairdryer were of great quality.
My only criticism was the fact that wine, biscuits and crisps/crackers were left on the side in our room which we assumed were a good will gesture as this was different to the mini bar, yet we were charged €6 for a bag of crackers. This should have been explained to us and €6 is slightly excessive.

Too short but absolutely beautiful!
I loved the location (Bordeaux) because it is very quaint and gives off that original French feel, with tiled streets and lovely restaurants. The rooms of the hotel are so artsy, colourful and original!!!

Boutique hotel in a traditional setting easy walk to town.
Comfortable large rooms, cosy courtyard. Staff were very helpful. Small boutique hotel 10-15 minutes from the main drag.
