Best Luxury Hotels in Bordeaux

Best known as France’s premier wine-producing region, Bordeaux also offers beautiful Gothic and Beaux-Arts architecture, museums and mansions (it follows Paris as the city with the most listed or registered monuments in the country). It’s also a port city – the Garonne River flows through the centre – with an excellent gastronomic offer and plenty of nightlife. We recommend visiting between May and November if you want to tour the vineyards – go in September to catch the harvest time. But with so much to see and do, Bordeaux makes an elegant city break at any time of the year.
