Chateau Grattequina

Beautiful château! The room was very comfortable and beautifully decorated, and the air conditioning was a huge plus. The grounds surrounding the château are stunning, peaceful, and exceptionally well maintained. We saw a hare and lots of birds, which made the setting even more special. The breakfast wasn't very extensive, but everything was delicious and of excellent quality. Honestly, I didn't want to go anywhere else—I just wanted to stay at the château and enjoy the peace and tranquility.

The hotel is a little gem just 30 mins outside of Bordeaux city. The building and rooms are beautiful, and the grounds stunning. We loved our room and it was very spacious with high ceilings. The pool was perfect for the heatwave as well! Food and drink were great but it doesn’t have a restaurant onsite - the staff prepare cold food but it was really tasty! We had a bit of an air con leak on arrival but the hotel got maintenance in the following day and fixed it quickly. Would definitely recommend if you’d like a peaceful chateau experience for a couple of nights!

We “ended up” at this hotel after hotels.com tricked us into an absolute dive of b&b. This place was so nice that upon arriving, we immediately cancelled our dinner plans, deciding g to just hang at the hotel. Some champagne, some wine, cheese plate … amazing. Next morning we explored the city and then back to hotel did the heat of the day - at the pool. Amazing. There is a gentleman, Max, who makes sure everything is top notch!

Maxima, Raphael and Luce were perfect hosts. Chateau was perfect for day trips to Medoc, Bordeaux city and St. Emillion

Chateau Grattequina is a lovely hotel with wonderful staff. All three of the front of house team were excellent and Lucy in particular made us very welcome on arrival. They are all friendly and charming. If you are oooking to do a wine tour or visit Bordeaux this is the perfect location. For a touch of class take the hotel’s own launch into the centre of Bordeaux. Lovely pool and grounds make it a great setting with beautiful decor and rooms.

Reception staff at check-in so welcoming and informative. We arrived late but this was not an issue, answered all our questions and ensured we were settled with all we needed.

Amazing stay close to Bordeaux but still secluded. We enjoyed a relaxed 2-night stay (in a spatious room), and especially enjoyed the 24/7-available wine bar as well as the sunrise on the estate with a coffee (included even if no breakfast is booked). Staff was very attentive and friendly, would definitely recommend!

Stunning property and location. Limited dining and no bar .

We were here to rest and recharge after spending the day wine tasting. This chateau is quiet and peaceful. Staff is friendly and speaks our language which is not common in many parts of France. We would highly recommend this hotel to others.

Fantastic place on the garonne river. Loved having picnics outside and taste the wide selection of self pouring wines. Staff were excellent apart from a lady at the front desk that was kind of rude on the fact that we could not bring food to the swimming pool ( that wasn’t explained to us at check in ), she made us feel very uncomfortable. But the two other gentleman at the front desk were great!

We were greeted by Maxim, who took great care to show us around, explain things, take us to our room etc. We had 3 nights of peace and quiet and access to the beautiful pool. Lucie looked after us splendidly for our first breakfast & I can't begin to tell you how impressed were with our quarters. Being just 10 rooms, it's geared for relaxation & a little luxury. While we were happy with all food options, I suspect the lack of prepared cooked food for dinner, may be not to everyone's liking. But Bordeaux is just a few minutes away by car if so desired. As I said, we loved our 3 night stay & have already told friends & relatives that they should stay there if the opportunity arises.

Absolutely magnificent place to stay. Huge air-conditioned bedrooms with fantastic bathrooms. Enormous gardens along with excellent pool, grounds and tennis court. Very hospitable owner and staff with fluent English. Will definitely stay again

Chateau Grattequina is a magical place. The grand driveway goes on forever and then you see the beautiful gardens so many different flowers and fruit trees on the property. The condition is immaculate the grounds which are so vast are picture perfect. The grand entry way, the decor, the huge rooms, the back balcony, the pool. It is all perfect. We stayed with a large group of 16 guests and spent so much time just taking pictures every where we could. We also had a gala dinner all arranged by the staff and the execution was flawless. We cannot wait to come back. Bravo!

We had a wonderful one night stay in this beautiful chateaux after finishing up our cruise. The romantic room was gorgeous! Very comfortable bed, beautiful river view. I wish the menu had been bigger but the food was very good. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Its outside of Bordeaux across the river in a farm like setting. Its peaceful and gorgeous with an excellent staff!

A beautiful chateau with some very nice amenities . However, more renovations are still needed. The staff is small and at times stretched to accommodate all guests. I do say the staff works hard to try make everyone’s stay perfect.

So beautiful! Add one are too expensive and some should be included in the price.

This is an absolutely stunning property set alongside the beautiful setting of the River Garonde and slightly out from the busy city of Bordeaux (approx 15 mins by car). The large room (#10) looked onto the river at the back of the property and had a very large walk-in shower and a bath, 2 sinks and separate toilet room. Slippers and dressing gowns were provided. Very comfortale bed. Breakfast was lovely, although a little overpriced at 22€ per person. Having been in touch with the property prior to arrival about dietary requirements, they were able to cater for that for me. Unlimited tea, coffee, hot chocolate was available. Wine by the glass from a machine added to your tab and payable at the end of your stay. Pool was perfect, and there was also a sauna next to the pool. Poolside towels were provided. The 'menu' available is more q snack menu but delicious. The one downside for you to be aware of with booking through Expedia if you choose the option to pay at the property, they required a pre-authorisation check before arrival, which actually took full payment albeit showing as a pending payment. Upon departure, the property insisted we had to pay the amount again, so in theory paying twice at that point. A week after our stay, we still hadn't received a refund contrary to what we were told, so I again requested a cancellation of the pre-authorisation payment from the property directly and finally got the pending payment money back. Fantastic stay all in all. Will return.

Fantastic Chateau

Limited activities in the area but a nice property to relax at.
