Francis and Annie set a Very high bar with their outstanding hospitality. From when we arrived in their very grand home, Francis and Annie make you feel like you have been mistaken for visiting Royalty (when they are the ones living in the palace.) I am Not exaggerating. They met us at the door with smiles and very warm welcomes then Francis helped my wife with her heavy bag to our room (since I had a broken/recovering hand) and then they invited us to their parlour for refreshments and friendly conversation. They patiently endured our painfully limited French as we chatted about our vacation/family and their city/family/etc for over an hour. They couldn't have been any warmer, engaging or friendlier as hosts! Their home is unbelievably beautiful and spacious with 4m ceilings, and the bedroom itself is large and beautifully-decorated with a complete modern bathroom built within it. Their home is on a very quiet sidestreet/alley but Very close to wonderful restaurants of Chartron and an easy <1km walk into downtown, and also very near a convenient tramline. On the day of our departure, even though Francis and Annie had to rush off to a surprise birthday party for her mother, they generously served us a light breakfast with them in their back terrace. My wife and I truly doubt that anyone will ever top Francis's and Annie's warm hospitality for us at any future Airbnb/Gite/B&B. We wouldn't think twice about being their guests on a future visit to Bordeaux.
