Lovely clean, quiet and very comfortable room. Desk, microwave, fridge, kettle (supplied tea and coffee). Great shower room.
Blanquefort may not be the most happening place, but there are several lovely restaurants within walking distance, from a friendly pizzeria/bar to top-end, and a really lovely Réunionnaise/Creole restaurant which was amazing food and value the night I went. Lots more within a short drive of course.
Most importantly (for me - I work in wine) Blanquefort is within easy reach of the Rocade ring road, making it ideal for touring around the entire Bordeaux region, as well as easy to get into the city itself (will be even easier when the new tramline is finished, which will be soon), and Bordeaux Lac. You can get to both Pauillac and St Emilion within 50 minutes, and it's probably the only place in the whole of Bordeaux of which that can be said!!
There is even a nice looking wine Château a few moments walk away (Ch Dillon), as well as the more famous Château Magnol within Blanquefort. You are close to the city and yet I went for a run which felt like it was entirely in countryside. Laure and Thierry were very helpful with recommendations and gave excellent communication.
Everything is exactly as described. There is private off-street parking and everything feels secure.
There are two very friendly cats who will say hello, although I am sure they would ignore you if you wanted. Highly recommended.
