Hampton by Hilton Bordeaux Merignac Airport

Hampton by Hilton Bordeaux Merignac Airport

10/10 Excellent
"I was pleasantly surprised at how sparkling clean and fresh the room and bathroom were. I was picked up at the airport by the free hotel van service. The hotel is about a 5 minute drive from the Bordeaux airport. Check-in was quick and easy. I had a king bed with four big pillows. The marble bathroom had on the wall dispensers for body lotion and hand soap near the sink and shampoo, conditioner and body wash dispensers in the shower. I appreciated the hand-held sprayer in the shower along with the rain-type shower head. The towels were big and oh so fluffy. The room had a very big tv screen and lots of channels to choose from in French, English, Spanish and Chinese. I highly recommend this hotel. I paid less than 115 euros per night in September. A real bargain!"
