Hôtel Massilia

Hôtel Massilia is a small two-star budget hotel at 34 Rue Saint-Sernin in central Bordeaux, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France, between Place Gambetta and the Mériadeck district. The street lies on the Saint-Seurin side of the centre, an area of 19th-century apartment buildings and small shops that is more residential than the pedestrian core. From the hotel, Place Gambetta, Rue Sainte-Catherine and the Cathédrale Saint-André are within roughly 10 to 15 minutes on foot, the Mériadeck shopping and administrative district is close by, and the Grand Théâtre and Garonne quays are about 15 to 20 minutes away. Tram and bus stops nearby connect to Gare Saint-Jean and the rest of the network. Rooms are listed as Single and Double categories, suitable for solo travellers and couples, and free wifi is available. No restaurant, spa or pool is listed in the available data, so the hotel operates as a simple, economical base; guests generally take breakfast and dinner in the surrounding cafés, bakeries and brasseries, where regional dishes, canelés and Bordeaux wines are easy to find. Published rates run from about EUR 60 to EUR 120 per night, one of the lower bands for a central Bordeaux address, with higher prices during summer, trade fairs and weekends. The service character is that of a modest family-scale hotel with a staffed reception that can help with luggage storage and directions, aimed at budget-conscious leisure travellers, backpackers who prefer a private room and visitors to the nearby offices and the Mériadeck conference facilities. Travellers who place a premium on facilities such as a lift, air conditioning or a restaurant should confirm them directly before booking.
