Overall Ratings & Reviews JOST Hôtel Bordeaux Centre Gare Saint Jean

lovely hotel, nice design, friendly staff. my only issue was its terrible reach by car and the hotel didn't pick up calls when we were trying to confirm access.

I liked the enclosed individual beds and the curtains were perfect for privacy. The lockers were very conveniently located and everything was clean.

Service was great and the hostel was very clean everywhere. However, the dorm was BOILING hot (in late February). Someone opened the window in the night which meant that the nearby trains made it impossible to sleep from 5am onwards.

Comfortable but a bit out of the way

Location was a 15 minute walk from train station. Entry of hotel was not at street level so it was a little difficult to find at night. Over all the coffee area with water station was very nice to have.

very pleasant

Great hotel, quirky decor and handy to the train station

3 nights in Bordeaux close to the main gare.

Staff were great. Roofdeck pool was relaxing with amazing views. Hôtel had fun, retro decor.

Excellent all round, very helpful staff!

Nice place and comfortable bed. Nice soaps too. . The only suggestion would be to get rid of the blue light from the light switch because the room has an exceptional black out and the blue light switch illuminates all the room at night disturbing the sleep.

Perfect stay for a long weekend in Bordeaux

Would highly recommend an alternative hotel (it’s also a hostel ) - far from everything and surrounded by multiple construction sites and of course the train station 🚉

We had a fabulous stay and staff were very helpful, especially considering my limited French. The rooms were clean and well air conditioned, and I loved the shower. . We were also very grateful for the hotel's left luggage service. The hotel is very close to the railway station. This is beneficial in terms of check-in and checkout. Please be aware, however, the trains may disturb your rest.

Helpful staff!

Very helpful staff

Amaizing place !! Love it!

This hotel opened in Aug last year and it seems they’re still working out a lot of issues. During my stay, the fire alarm went off three different times (including very early in the morning twice), the pool was closed due to technical reasons, and the lifts had a wait of around five minutes. Add to this the surrounding landscape of total construction works and a less-than-salubrious neighbourhood and it made for a challenging stay. Things happen and the staff can’t be faulted for the alarms, construction or lifts, but the general insouciance and je-m’en-foutisme by the mostly very young staff give me pause about an upcoming stay in another Jost I had already booked. True, they did offer me breakfast as compensation, but if a hotel can’t deliver on the one thing it promises—a good night’s sleep—then what good is it, really? All in all, their style is on point, now they need to bring the substance.

The room was nice but frustrating that the fire alarm went off both mornings for false alarms which meant the water went out in our room and we couldn’t have a shower. Roof top pool wasn’t working and they said we could have a free cocktail but then couldn’t have it because the roof top had an event that you had to pay to go to. Breakfast was also pretty average.

Loved staying at this hotel. The room had enough space for 2 people, you can put your suitcases under the bed and it saves room! The bed was comfortable and the staff was really friendly & professional. The only thing I would say is that when I got there the room was at 28 degrees so it took a while to bring it down to 20 degrees. Other than that, it was perfect!
