A True French Experience
Unique property with lots of character. It felt like a true French experience. Our room was on the lower level of the building which meant we had access to a small private patio and to the larger, public courtyard. We spoke with another guest who was staying in a private villa off the courtyard so there are a variety of rooms available.The convenience of the buffet breakfast made for an easy start to our day. We had a car and while parking is available it is about a 10 minute walk in a very narrow underground facility. The location of Villa Victor Louis made for easy access to restaurants, TBM stops, and shopping. The staff were very professional and personable.

Dear Nancy,Thank you for this pleasant comment!All rooms are meticulously decorated, each with a personal touch, yet all the charming ambiance of the 18th century is conserved .Villa Victor Louis is located in the heart of Bordeaux, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city, just a 10-minute walk away of the Opera House. Our team is indeed well known for its investment and the care given to our guests. We are always happy to help for all questions regarding the city of Bordeaux.Best regards

It may be an old residential building remodeled to good appearance. Bed sheet not replaced. Difficult to use light switch. Shower head refusing to stay in working position. Breakfast is poorly served in quantity and quality. No onsite or nearby parking. 7 minutes to public parking.

Dear Hoju,We are sorry to read that your stay at our establishment did not meet your expectations. We strive every day to listen to and accommodate our guests so they can enjoy the tranquility, comfort, and serenity of Villa Victor Louis.During long stays bed sheets are replaced every 3 to 4 days unless asked, to limit our ecological impact ( all information are available at reception or directly in our directory).Regarding breakfast, our buffet selection has a wide variety of choice, we offer a range of sweet and savory options including cereals, bread, pastries, dairy products, cheese and meat, and seasonal fruits locally provided and organic for a majority.Indeed if you looking for an american style breakfast you will be disappointed. Located in France and as french lovers we are eager to respect our values and customs with a hint of creativity nerveless. For future visits, please don't hesitate to communicate any concerns to our staff immediately, so that we can address them promptly like show you how to switch the light on and off.Best regards,

The Hotel was very disappointing! Got put in the worst room, in the roof! Extremely Hot! No Shower! No parking on-site despite stating they did! House keeping didn’t lock our doors after they cleaned so that anyone could just walk in! Very deceiving from the pictures! And worst of all the manager declined our upgrade even though there was other rooms available and we booked as VIP. Expedia and this hotel have let us down and that needs to be rectified.

The staff are nice however the owner is horrible. A money grabbing person who kept our money for nearly two years, then issues a credit telling us that we have to use it by the end of 2921 otherwise we will lose £320. When we booked, prices had dropped and the hotel still owe us £65. The hotel refused to give us breakfast with this money and the option for it was not available so hotels.com are also responsible. For the price, it is a rip off. Do not stay here.

Dear Lay Wee Amy, Thank you very much for your feedback. The reviews we receive are essential to us, as they help us to improve, and therefore to give our guests the best possible experience !

I had a great stay at Villa Victor Louis. Lovely, classic style, but not stuffy or too formal to feel at home.The staff was very helpful and quick to respond to my every need--whether a hot coffee or information about the city. I've especially loved the place because of the beautiful garden--a great retreat in the center of Bordeaux--it's a little piece of paradise. The rooms are large and the bed is very comfortable with quality bedding. A fabulous, locally sourced breakfast is available. 1-5 min walk to so much and 5-8 min walk to the hyper-centre.

Comfortable and clean room, even if in the attic. The Ryanair seat prepared me for the tight bathroom space. Usual French drain aroma with the window open and breakfast was quite hit and miss, the earlier guests had obviously had a feast! Quiet district and web pictures are accurate.

Very disappointing
It's a shame as this hotel has great potential but the service seriously let us down. We had problems throughout our stay - the lady at the reception agreed to book us a dinner reservation and she told us it was all set - failed to tell us it actually wasn't booked until we asked as we were leaving for the dinner. Then the bedding was not properly cleaned in the morning make-up service - still hairs on the bed - they only do a very basic, superficial clean. Don't expect them to clean/remove your used water glasses or empty the dustbins. She also had no recommendations for restaurants nearby. And don't bother paying extra €11 for the very basic breakfast, just go the Paul's nearby. Disappointing as we treated ourselves to the suite and were hoping for a smooth ride but got far less - It no way near deserves its current Hotels.com rating but under the right management and service, this could've been really lovely.

A gorgeous bordelaise Townhouse
We had no idea this was more like private home rather than a hotel. We arrived late (after 10pm) We received an email from them at 8:15pm that evening with instructions as to where to find the key which was easy to find. There is no elevator. The classic room ‘Rosa’ on the 3rd floor was clean but very tiny for 2 people. I would not recommend it for two. Thankfully, they upgraded us to a ‘suite’ the next day, which was much nicer. However, the decor and feel of the house was absolutely lovely. Breakfast was delicious and we had it in the beautiful garden which was idyllic with the sound of birds tweeting all around us. Management is young. The girls are sweet and helpful but do not have a lot of experience or authority to make the usual decisions that come with responding to customer inquiries. This seems to be because of lack of training rather than inability. Still, they worked very hard at making the stay comfortable. Our sense was that they were afraid of running afoul of strict rules. So, when we asked for an extra ten minutes for checkout we were told we would be charged 20 Euros! They also did not have much knowledge on restaurant recommendations. The location is good however. Only about 10-15 mins to the main areas. The street is very quiet and could be a bit scary if walking alone at night for single women. We would, however, happily return. It is a very charming and comfortable place.

Disappointed for the standard
Our experience overall was very disappointing. From the no pick at train station up to the minimal breakfast provided for the money to a broken toilet which was not going to be fixed for three days but after insisting, the poor receptioist had to fix it. We had to continually chase our laundry after leaving it with the staff all day. The service was beyond the standard we expected for a high class hotel and in this price range. Noise from street was evident each night. The bed was comfortable but would not stay again.

beautiful house and room. very quiet and tranquil. good bed. room darkening not very good, so bring eye cover.. location is good and only a few minutes walk from the city center. there is a street with good restaurants near by (Rue du Palais Gallien) there are many parking spots in the street for overnight parking, but if you have to park during the day, the hotel offers parking for 15 EUR for 24 hours in a garage 10 minutes walk from the hotel (not suitable for large cars). the normal price in that garage is 30 (!) EUR. breakfast is good and served in a very pleasant room, but the staff is a little slow in organizing it (for example there was no set table when we arrived, even though they knew we should arrive. we had to ask for everything to be filled up etc.). there are 2 pairs of bicycle for the guests, but their condition is not great. would come back if I find good deal

18th century Style
The only reason I chose a Victor Luis villa was its style, elegant atmosphere and the authenticity of an 18th century. Though I could live in the Hilton for less money. So it's true that I got what I wanted. But out of the style the rest was quite disappointing. The breakfasts were very standard, the staff included young girls except one they seemed very unprofessional and unsafe. There is no public transport near the villa, it is about 20-25 minutes walk to the center of Bordeaux. You can reach Tram to Gambetta Square which is half way to the Villa. the girls in reception didn’t know to tell us this and reserved a taxi for us to reach our meeting near the gran theater . What I found most puzzling was that after 22:00, when the reception desk closes the lobby room is being locked too .... meaning that if I wanted to sit and read outside the room and not to disturb my husband with the light, it was not possible !! You have to take into account the inconvenience of luck of elevator, there are a lot of high stairs.

Dear Navalee We regret that your stay did not met all your expectations. Our location is not far from the city center, only a 15 minutes walk. We can also organise transportation at the reception. At night, we only leave the lounge room/winter garden open where you can enjoy reading and a cup of tea or herbal tea. We are sorry that you misread the informations on our partners website during your booking on the fact that we do not have any lift. Best regards, Hélène & Villa Victor Louis' team
