The Bordeaux Chambres d'hotes is a quiet, contemporary bed-and-breakfast on the city's outskirts, with manicured landscaping, a terrace with patio furniture, a fireplace lounge, a bright and stylish breakfast room, and a modern spa with a hot tub.

The Hotel Continental by HappyCulture is a three-pearl, 51-room hotel located in the heart of Bordeaux. Set in an 18th-century townhouse, it has traditional French decor with Art Deco elements. Although guest rooms aren't particularly fancy (or quiet), they're clean and include modern amenities such as flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, and electric kettles. The hotel has a cozy lounge next to the lobby, where free wine and cheese is served every evening. It also features a bright, spacious breakfast room where a daily continental buffet is served, but this costs extra. Travelers looking for a central hotel with a more upmarket feel should consider the four-pearl Le Boutique, which adds a free breakfast and on-site spa treatments.

Near central Bordeaux, the upscale Hotel de Seze offers quintessential French elegance in a contemporary setting. Blending bold, classical decor with modern elements, the 55 individually decorated rooms are gorgeous, if small. They're outfitted with wireless keyboards for flat-screen TVs, minibars, and bathrobes, however, they lack kettles and front-facing rooms can be noisy. A well-reviewed French restaurant and cozy cigar lounge are on-site, as is a romantic spa with a hot tub, treatment rooms, and sauna (fee). A tiny gym has just a few pieces of equipment. A free shuttle runs to a private golf course and secure underground parking is available for a fee. The vibe is decadent and exclusive, but rates are high. Still in the center of town, Hotel Continental by HappyCulture is less fancy but more competitively priced.

Housed in an 18th-century post office, the three-and-a-half-pearl La Maison Bord'eaux is located on a quiet street within walking distance of dining and shopping in central Bordeaux. It has a cozy library lounge and a wine tasting room, but lacks a full bar or restaurant. Its 14 colorful guest rooms are individually decorated, with minibars and flat-screen TVs, but they're a little spare for rooms in this tier. Travelers who don't mind the more monotonous style of a conventional hotel will find much cheaper rates and a full restaurant at the Mercure Bordeaux Cite Mondiale Centre Ville, on the banks of the Garonne River.

The 37-room Best Western Royal Saint Jean is an upper-middle-range hotel just opposite a train station outside the center of Bordeaux. Rooms are contemporary and stylish, though small, outfitted with Nespresso machines, minibars, and iPod docks. The hotel lacks a restaurant, but a buffet breakfast with great local pastries is available for a fee. Additionally, a lobby bar is cozy and offers many of the region's fine wines in the evenings, and a library can be used as a meeting room. Note, a few rooms are only reached by stairs. This area isn't the nicest, but nearby trams run downtown or walks take about 20 minutes. Secure on-site parking is at a fee, while bike storage and property-wide Wi-Fi are both free. It's worth considering the more central Hotel Continental, which also has free cheese and wine nights.

The 12-room Yndohotel is a beautiful upscale hotel housed in a renovated 19th-century mansion near Bordeaux's historic center. Period details are mixed with modern designer furniture and art for a sophisticated, quirky look throughout. Each room is individually decorated, but all are sophisticated and romantic -- some even have lovely furnished terraces. Public spaces are lavish, and the kitchen will serve up meals at any time -- everything from breakfast to 24-hour room service is excellent (though expectedly pricey). Groups of eight to 10 can gather in the meeting room, and larger groups can reserve the entire hotel. For a larger hotel with a livelier vibe and similar rates, travelers could check out the Hotel Burdigala, where rooms are stylish, but plainer than the digs found here.
