Location, they say, is everything. If so, this hotel is the place to be. And the staff is tremendous. The room was small and a bit outdated but ask yourself why you’re there. Are you moving in and making it home or do you just need a place to sleep at night? I recommend

The room was very small, no safe, or fridge. Peeling paint on walls, average bathroom decor and noise from street with window shut was still loud. Luggage was difficult to get into room with significant steps from the lift. No plug sockets on one side of the bed. Only 4 hangars supplied for 2 people was not enough for a 3 night stay especially with limited room to open & store suitcases.
Great location however and friendly staff.

Excellent location for historical district and tram. Very small but efficient room. Very noisy on street side. Tough stairs for less than hardy climbers.

Be aware if climbing stairs is an issue. Elevator has limited reach and some stair climbing will be required. The breakfast had plenty of variety and was good value for the extra charge

We had two rooms on the top floor. Accessed by a very tiny elevator and then a flight of stairs. Very central and the front desk staff was great!

Hotel is nicely situated , close to - but not in the middle of it all. Easily walkable , and although it’s in a lively area by day it is quiet on a night . It is a pleasant and basic hotel - was perfect for me. If you want luxury then you need to upgrade on spec and cost - this is ideal for one or two nights. Staff are friendly and helpful , breakfast at €9 is not overly expensive as you can have as much as you like. It was worth the money and the bed was comfortable

Bordeaux- 2 night stay
For the star level of this hotel, the price and the location….it was excellent.
Staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
Rooms are clean.
They are currently doing some renovations, so there is some noise after 9am, but we were out exploring by then.
Can’t wait to see their remodel.
Would stay here again.

Hotel Gambetta was situated within walking distance to most sites. It was close to the trams, restaurants, bars & cafes. Some of the rooms were small but the location was a winner. Continental breakfast was plentiful. Would recommend this hotel.

Great location . Small room that was boiling hot in the warm weather. Don’t pay extra for a courtyard view it is not worth it
