Both the location (restaurants/sites nearby) and cleanliness of the place were excellent. No hassles or problems. Five Star.

This is a very beautiful apartment and Ariel is an attentive host that has covered off everything you could possibly need - and even surprised us with an arrival gift (bottle of fine Bordeaux wine). Entry to the apartment was both independent and easy - instructions for the apartment, local transit, groceries, restaurants etc. were informative. Ariel remained in touch throughout our stay. The location is perfect - decent neighbourhood within walking distance of many key sights (and simple tram system for travelling beyond).

The apartment is situated in a great location, within walking distance of many of the city’s attractions. It is also very close to a tram station. The apartment itself is well equipped and having two bathrooms was a bonus. The two bedrooms were both very quiet. We have stayed at several properties in Bordeaux and this one is our favourite and one we hope to return to one day.

Excellent location near the heart of Bordeaux, but having the bedrooms in the back made them very quiet. It was very hot but the apartment stayed relatively cool.

Bonne

We walked everywhere in the city. Guides met us at the apartment for strolls across the city. Evening meals were spent on the square just a block from our door. So fun!

This is a very nice comfortable convenient two bedroom apartment in the old city with a good fully equipped kitchen. Nice bright big windows. Very agreeable owner who was helpful and easy to communicate with. It’s within easy walking distance to the golden triangle area. The tram stop is 5 mins walk away and perfect to get to the apartment from the station and back. No need for taxis. The street can be a bit noisy at night but It didn’t really bother us. There are lots of restaurants, a big Carrefour grocery store, a Boulangerie and a wine shop all close by. If you want to stay in but don’t want to cook, get some delicious empanadas from the Argentinian shop next door or equally delicious Turkish pizza from the corner. I highly recommend ‘Echo’ and ‘Le Chien Pavlov’ restaurants. Both are relaxed with excellent innovative food. We were there for nine nights and it was all good.

Out of 2 weeks traveling through France, this apartment in Bordeaux was the highlight of our trip. It is positively elegant. One block to the left begins series of piazzas, cafes and the convenient car park. Every road you walk down i to explore is filled with delight. It is close to the water and many sites of interest. Arielle is the perfect hostess. She checked in with us occasionally to make sure we were happy, but was not invasive at all. I’m fact, I forgot some very important medications there and she had no problem mailing them to the US. It was a perfect stay.

Appartement très confortable, cosy, situé au 1er étage d'un immeuble typiquement bordelais. Dans le vieux centre, très central pour les visites, beau quartier propre et sécurisant, calme, près des quais ; beaucoup de petits restos, magasin général, jolies places, .... Propriétaire très disponible. Superbe séjour. Merci

We loved the apartment and Ariele was a wonderful hostess. The apartment is in a perfect location and is large, well-equipped and very quiet. We had a wonderful time and loved Bordeaux!

I had the pleasure of spending 5 nights in Ariele's apartment in January. It's located on a quiet street in the old town, near 2 of the historic gates. There are an abundance of restaurants and wine bars nearby. The apartment is charming, elegant and quite "grand." It's also very well equipped, with excellent showers and comfortably furnished. Bordeaux (first visit) is also very charming and easy to get around on foot. The people are very friendly and helpful. There are great museums and the opera house is a treasure. The TGV from Paris takes about 2 hours and it's a very relaxing way to travel. It's a short tram ride from the train station to the apartment. Ariele made booking very easy and completely hassle free.

This well located apartment has been charmingly decorated and well equipped by its friendly and responsive owner. In the old town of Bordeaux, it is surrounded by places to eat, drink and shop which are a pleasure to stroll to. The major attractions of the town are within easy walking distance. If you don't feel like walking or want to visit a more remote site you can catch a tram from a close by stop. All together a great place to base your visit to one of the great cities of France.

We toured Europe for several weeks, staying in many homes and this was by far the most comfortable home we experienced.The location is ideal! There are great restaurants, and grocers nearby and it is very close to the riverfront, for evening walks or morning jogs.The interior is very well equipped and several nights even with all of the amazing options at our doorstep we selected to simply stay in, make appetizers and enjoy the beautiful apartment.The rooms are spacious, and private. The layout is perfect for two couples because even if one couple is up early or late there is a door separating the bedrooms area from the main home. Also, even though the front of the home opens to a vibrant pedestrian street, when you close the large solid windows it becomes very peaceful in the living area, and the bedrooms back onto a peaceful rear courtyard - providing silent evenings

L’appart était propre et confortable. La situation géographique au centre ville historique n’empêche pas que l’appartement et les chambres sont tranquilles. Les lits et la literie sont confortables. Tout est bien équipé et Arièle est une hôte parfaite. Pleins de belles attentions et son guide est fantastique. Nous le recommandons fortement.

Di questo appartamento abbiamo apprezzato molto la posizione centrale, la tranquillità. Arredato molto bene. Arièle è stata molto disponibile durante tutto il soggiorno, la ringraziamo di cuore.

My husband and I stayed in Arièle's beautiful apartment for five nights and we couldn't have been happier. The living room was open, airy, and comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped for cooking our own breakfast each morning, the bedroom was absolutely silent for a good night's sleep, the water pressure strong for a good hot shower... in short, it was everything we like to have in a home away from home. And the neighborhood was phenomenal—the friendly wine bar right next door had a vast selection of great wines and yummy snacks, and the wine bar two doors down was equally appealing, with tables outside for great people-watching. We will definitely be back!

La localización del apartamento en pleno centro, inmejorable! El apartamento genial, edificio histórico rehabilitado, información para llegar y recomendaciones en el mismo apartamento, limpieza, detalles... todo un lujo!

L’appartement a un charme fou, et typiquement bordelais. La situation du logement est idéale pour tout faire à pied ou en tram. Il y a des commerces de bouche à portée de main et de très bons restaurant/café/bistrot sans parler des nombreuses boutiques de la rue Sainte Catherine ou des superbes boutiques indépendantes de la rue des Remparts, Bordeaux est une ville très agréable à l’image de la propriétaire aux petits soins pour ses locataires. Mieux qu’un hôtel, ici on se sent comme chez soi avec toutes les commodités et tout ce qu il faut pour vous recevoir. Parfait.

The property was lovely and the location fantastic. Walking distance to loads of restaurants and shops. A well equipped kitchen made breakfasts and indoor picnics very easy. A slight warning: this is not really a 2 bedroom ensuite property. Each of the bedrooms has its own shower and sink, but not its own toilet. There is one communal toilet in the living area but you have to leave your bedroom to use it. Driving into the parking area near the property was a bit dicey and not for the faint of heart — lots of pedestrians, motorcycles, strollers etc coming at you from all directions on narrow streets. We compared it to a video game and hoped we could avoid all the obstacles! Bordeaux is an extremely crowded, young person 20’s and 30’s type of place. We used it as a base to explore the area which we would not do again as it was too much of a hassle coming and going into the city. But we would rate the property very highly, it was nicely decorated and the linens and beds were comfortable.

My husband and I, together with another couple of friends, stayed in Ariele's apartment for one week. During this time we enjoyed its location, its pleasant furnishings (albeit somewhat cluttered in the bedrooms) and its little terrace garden. We were disappointed by the neglected state of repair of the building; the entrance hall was dark, dusty and unwelcoming. Also some facilities in the apartment were not up to standard: a large proportion of the bulbs were not working, there were no towel rails in the second bathroom, and the kitchen utensils were limited; for example there only a few pots available and they had no lids.

Our group of 4 adults wanted a nice place to stay in central Bordeaux, and Ariele’s apartment certainly fits the bill. It’s in the old city area, and easily within walking distance to the river foreshore, business area, hundreds of eateries, the tourism centre, and parks. The apartment is on the first floor, so expect some stairs. The kitchen has all the requirements for food preparation, as well as the very handy washing machine, and the large lounge / dining area is very welcoming for all guests. Each bedroom has a small shower / vanity area, but there is only a single share toilet. The whole apartment is well maintained and very clean, as has a very ‘homely’ feeling. We strongly recommend this apartment if you plan to stay in Bordeaux.

My family and I stayed at this apartment and it was everything we had hoped for. Even more spacious and beautiful than in the pictures. It was very clean and Ariéle had thought of every detail. We loved it.

Perfect in every way. Such a classic apartment, well furnished, in a great neighborhood.

Arièle's apartment in the historic center of Bordeaux was a perfect fit for us, two couples touring the area. This charming apartment is beautifully decorated, affords each couple privacy, and is immaculate and comfortable. Arièle's little booklet provided information about the area that ensured a successful visit: wonderful restaurants, bars, shops, and places of interest. Thank you, Arièle!

Ariele was at the property to meet us and welcome us to her apartment and city, gave us a tour of the apartment assured us she was only a text away if we needed more information. Lovely bottle of red wine just asking to be drunk ! along with juice, water and milk in the fridge. The apartment is comfortable, very clean, soft white towels, smooth bed linen , comfy beds - we slept like logs - and very elegant. Very French ! Thank you Ariele we had a super time. We may well return one day.

This is such a lovely apartment and owner Ariele is so gracious and welcoming. Bordeaux is a fantastic, lively town and though the flat is right in the heart of a cool and beautiful area, despite that it was quiet -- and marvelous.

Appartement impeccable et charme de l'ancien avec tous les commerces a portee de main!

Excelente estancia de cuatro adultos y dos niños, muy buena ubicación y la atención de la propietaria exquisita. Tuvimos un pequeño problema que nos resolvió con rapidez. Todo estaba perfecto, hasta el detalle del obsequio de una botella de vino. Repetiremos.

This wonderful apartment is located right in the heart of Old Town. You couldn't ask for a better location! Ariele met us at the apartment and was just lovely. As we arrived in the evening, Ariele made sure we had milk, juice and even little packages of cereal for my granddaughters and a bottle of Bordeaux wine for the adults. The apartment is just as described, lovely and spacious. Although there are two on suite bathrooms, there is only one toilet, which at first we thought might be a problem with six people, however, it was no problem whatsoever. The toilet is in a room by itself. The beds were most comfortable and the linens superb. There is so much to do in Bordeaux and so many wonderful sights to see. Be sure to take a walk along the river, at night, to view the beautiful buildings and fountains which are lit up. There is an abundance of cafe's and wine bars everywhere. Just explore the area. There are three squares, surrounded by cafe's all within a few minutes from the apartment. Don't miss the mile long shopping avenue, St. Catherine, about a 1/2 mile walk from the apartment. We had a wonderful stay in Bordeaux, and Ariele was the perfect hostess!

The apartment is extremely well located, right in the centre with a lot of restaurants, shops and things to see within just a few minutes walk. The tram A from the airport is 300 m far the house The apartment itself is great, very clean and spacious, well furnished.The two bedrooms look into the terrace and not the road so there's no noise at night. Ariele is very helpful, kindly and make you feel like at your home. Checking in and out was easy, we would definitely stay here again.
