Where to Stay for Wine and Food
For an authentic Bordeaux experience, head to the Left Bank of the river, where the region's best wines are grown. Book a hotel in an old chateau in the villages of Margaux or Pessac Leognan, either a quick drive into the city itself. Stay in a new, hipper version of Bordeaux wine country in the revitalized Bassins a Flot neighborhood, with the sprawling new Cité du Vin. Enjoy the perfect cheese pairing by getting a room in well-heeled Chartrons, with a wide range of cheeses from its famous Sunday market. A more multicultural atmosphere, but just as much wine, is available when staying in Saint-Michel, with lively restaurants and nightlife.
Pessac
The wineries and coffeehouses are just a few things visitors like about Pessac. Château Pape Clement and Zoo Bordeaux-Pessac are worthwhile spots to check out, and you can hop on the metro at Pessac Centre Tram Station or Camponac Mediatheque Tram Station to get around the larger area.
The restaurants and museums are just a few things visitors like about Bassins a Flot. Submarine Base of Bordeaux and Cap Sciences are worthwhile spots to check out, and you can hop on the metro at Bassins A Flot Tram Station or Rue Achard Tram Station to get around the larger area.
Consider a visit to Bordeaux Wine and Trade Museum and take some time to enjoy the abundant dining options during your time in Chartrons. If you want to see more of the city, jump on the metro at Cours du Medoc Tram Station or Les Hangars Tram Station.

Bordeaux has much more to do besides enjoying the wine that is everywhere in the city. Families with kids love quiet Saint-Augustin, filled with parks. Hotels here are a convenient distance from the sights of the city. Book accommodations in the Quartier du Lac to enjoy the beach on the lake's shores, set apart from the business of the city center. Young people enjoy the less pastoral setting of Bacalan, close to the port, filled with art and music. Combine train journeys into the countryside with nights at a club by staying in the Gare Saint-Jean (Bordeaux St-Jean Station) neighborhood, conveniently located for both activities.
Saint Augustin
The coffeehouses and monuments are just a few things visitors like about Saint Augustin. Chaban-Delmas Stadium and Saint Bruno Church are worthwhile spots to check out, and you can hop on the metro at Stade Chaban-Delmas Tram Station or Hopital Pellegrin Tram Station to get around the larger area.
Noted for its lake views and bars, there's plenty to explore in Quartier du Lac. Top attractions like Barriere Casino Theatre and Aushopping Bordeaux Lac are major draws, and you can hop on the metro at Claveau Tram Station or Brandenburg Tram Station to see more of the city.
History in Bordeaux, and specifically wine history, goes back millennia. Even the Romans grew wine here. Get a sense of that ancient past by booking a hotel in the medieval town of Saint-Émilion. In Bordeaux itself, the Saint Pierre and Saint Paul neighborhoods are the medieval heart, where accommodations look out onto cobbled streets and terraces packed with wine lovers. Gaze at the great buildings and monuments of Bordeaux every morning from a hotel in Pey Berland, where most of the city's landmarks are located. Get a different sense of history from a stay among the stately boulevards and 18th-century parks of the Golden Triangle.
Bordeaux Golden Triangle
Visitors often come to Bordeaux Golden Triangle for its abundant dining options, but many stay to explore sights like Place de la Comédie and Rue Sainte-Catherine. Getting around the area on the metro is easy if you catch a ride at Grand Theatre Tram Station.
