Beautiful view, comfortable stay

Berenice and her staff were very nice and graciously welcomed us to their beautiful apartment. The terrace has a gorgeous view of Bordeaux. The apartment is very comfortable. (Save the four floor walk-up - HOWEVER, good exercise after all of the delicious food and wine we consumed.) It was a very hot week, but every room is very nicely cooled with multiple, quiet AC units. We slept well. The location is spectacular. Everything is walking distance. Behind the apartment is Saint Louis-Des-Chartrons and a quiet square with a delicious collection of boulangerie, cafes and restaurants. Highly recommended.

A Jewel on the Garonne

Perched high above the Garonne shortly before it flows into the Atlantic, Bernice's apartment is an absolute joy. Beautifully furnished and impeccably clean one settles in easily and begins to uncover the wonders of the often underappreciated city of Bordeaux. The only drawback to the apartment is that it is so comfortable and the views so spectacular that very often one does not want venture out. A stone's through from the tram and an easy walk to the center of the city, the apartment has comfortable beds, a huge modern bathroom, a large dining table and a lovely well equipped kitchen. There are many food stores and restaurants within a ten minute walk. Added to this is the owner, Bernice, who is the epitome of Gallic charm and can't do enough for her guests. At the risk of being redundant, I will not repeat what all the other reviewers have posted. I will simply say je suis d'accord . Merci Bernice for an absolutely wonderful 10 day visit. It was not long enough and we will be back.

Probably the best apartment I have stayed in.

Four of us booked a 3 night stay in Bordeaux at this lovely apartment. To be honest 3 nights was not really enough as Bordeaux is a lovely city, with lots of great bars and restaurants and plenty to see. The apartment is on the 4th floor of a very well renovated house on the Quai Des Chartrons, and has a great view looking out onto the river. There is a balcony with tables and chairs, where you can sit out on a warm evening and enjoy a glass of wine or two. The apartment is tastefully decorated and very well equipped, and the owner ,Berenice, speaks perfect English, and is happy to help with any queries - plus there she has provided loads of written information. Both bedrooms are of a good size, one with a double bed, and one with 3 singles. (The only thing I would improve is to add a mirror in the double room - seemed strange to have a dressing table but no mirror ?). The lounge dinner is spacious and well equipped, the kitchen has a hob, an a combination microwave and oven (we didn't try this, but it looked like new, with instructions in English), there was a coffee maker, cafetiere - in fact pretty much everything you could want. Very comfortable settee and chairs in the lounge, CD player, but no DVD player. There is a market every Sunday morning directly opposite the apartment which has a fantastic array of fresh foods, crafts, etc. Public transport is good, with a tram line station very close to the apartment, and 1.50 Euros buys you one hours travel on the trams, buses or water bus. To be honest we walked most of the time, as it was the best way to see the city, but I would recommend if you do walk to the other end of the city, to get the water bus back as it gives you some great views. Apartment is very secure, a fob for the front door, a code for the lift and a separate key for the apartment door, plus a another fob for the gate on the stairs. There are a couple of reasonable bar/restaurants just a few yards from the apartment, and loads more within a 5 minute walk. If you are looking for a 2 bedroom apartment in Bordeaux - this is the one to book

We loved the apartment with a beautiful view of the river and the cruise ships! The Sunday market is beyond spectacular and right out the front door. The beds were comfy and everything we needed was provided. It was very convenient to have a parking space (at a small additional charge) but be warned you must be driving a very small car to take advantage of this amenity. Would highly recommend a stay with Bérénice!

This property is fantastic! Berenice was so accommodative of us getting in a little early, allowing us to drop our bags off a few hours before check-in. The layout of the apartment is very nice and the has a wonderful charm to it with the stone walls. But the best things about the place is location and the view. The view is spectacular, and we so enjoyed sitting on the terrace sipping wine and enjoying views of the river, especially at night. The neighborhood is also fantastic, we never had to take a taxi to go to eat, everything you need is all right there.We will definitely come back!

From the moment we first met Berenice in the doorway of her wonderful apartment in the charming Chartrons district, we knew we had picked the perfect place for our two week stay in Bordeaux. The river view from the penthouse terrace was magnificent, and the apartment was exactly as described on the VRBO website. Everything we needed was in place and ready, and Berenice was always available to answer our questions or provide local advice on nearby bakeries, grocery stores, restaurants, and shops. We recommend this apartment without reservation; you will be pleased! Chapeau and thanks to Berenice and Georges for their wonderful hospitality.

Needed a place to stay between trips. What a find. Spacious, had all the appliances we needed (including washer and dryer), roomy bathroom, overlooked the Garonne River. and was located amongst lots of restaurants and shops. Even had a nearby tram stop. Additionally, our host went out of her way to make us comfortable with the features of the apartment and answer our questions about Bordeaux. Superb!

The apartment is right on the river with a wonderful rooftop view. It's in a perfect spot in the heart of Bordeaux. There are restaurants, historic sites, and shopping all within easy walking distance. The host provided a wonderful information booklet in both French and English. She gave us a wonderful introduction to the room, the amenities and the city. She was a very warm and helpful person and was incredibly helpful with every aspect of our visit. We absolutely recommend the accommodations and the host. She truly is a Super Host.

If you are going to Bordeaux this is the apartment to stay in. We were there for 7 days so seen most areas of the city and this was in the best location, not too far from the Centre and there is a lovely square just behind with lots of restaurants. The apartment has beautiful views of the river, cannot fault it and am currently recommending to friends. Berenice is a great host and the apartment was spotless, comfortable and large.

About the host

Hosted by Berenice Dorizon

Host profile image
My husband and I live in the apartment below which is very convenient and allows easy and friendly contact with my visitors. I am half English and perfectly bilingual which highly facilitates communication.
We take pride in our property and are responsive to any of our renters needs. We have lived abroad for many years and still travel. We have therefore transformed and decorated this flat as if it were for us. We have given it all the practical details we like to find when we rent abroad and are seldom found in a holiday rental, such as high quality material, personalised decoration, perfect sound and heat isolation, A/C, separate jetted bath and shower, controled access to the building, private lift, parking slot in the building, a good internet connection and of course all the help you wish to organise your stay in our beautiful city.

I have a personal website - www. chartrons37.com - where I tell you all about the city, the area and the apartment history. I also give all my secrets about where to eat, what to do, with or without children, my favourite places and activities ...

If we are away, my very reliable help, Cathy, will look after you very efficiently.

What makes this property unique

Few holiday flats in Bordeaux have both views to offer, one panoramic view over the River and one, from the bedrooms at the back, over the ancient roofs. Peace and quiet is total, however the city you are here for, its animation, buildings, distractions, is on the doorstep.
