On the whole I would stay again but not invest in the breakfast
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

It just didn’t get the breakfast restaurant right. Staff were fine but when I went to get food there was no bacon, no scrambled egg, small choice of bread and virtually no jams or peanut butter. So I suppose the team were slow to refresh the dishes. I had baguette and cheese and a little fruit. No bread for toasting. This left me feeling very overcharged for the breakfast

Cons:

Personnel peu accueillant, pas très souriant et tout juste aimable.

Excellent séjour
Pros:

Super hôtel très propre, personnel très gentil et serviable, l’hôtel est joliment meublé et décoré avec goût et modernité.
Nous avons dîner en chambre et le repas était très bon.
Super petit déjeuner très varié, vraiment beaucoup de choix avec des produits de qualité.
Super emplacement face au lac, parking sécurisé par des barrières et ce qui ne gâche rien pour nous qui avons un chien, les espaces verts entretenus.
Nous y reviendrons lors de notre prochain séjour à Bordeaux.

Cons:

Rien
