JOST Hôtel Bordeaux Centre Gare Saint Jean

Great stay despite construction area. Lovely quirky hotel. Kids loved the double bunk beds and the pool at top. Parking was the only issue I think needing some attention as there was none really close so took half hour to drive the car to the nearest carpark. Hopefully in the construction around they have factored that ina nd some nearer parking can be provided. Decent price now - although I imagine once the area is developed that will spike!

Wonderful experience overall. The hotel property is new, some equipments needs little tune up such as 2 of the elevators and in room central air condition system.

When Jost works out the kinks (it is very new), I expect I would give it a higher rating. It's located close to the train station, but in a construction area, I was VERY confused trying to find it, even with Google maps. They did let me check in early, but had problems with the key card in the elevator. The room I had was tidy/small, did not have a chair or luggage rack, so I had to use the double bed as half a staging area. No glasses (as in water glasses) in the room. Turned out coffee maker, etc., some glasses and mugs are in the common area on the floor -- but I didn't know that! Despite being close to the train station, the hotel is isolated, and its restaurant hours (and menu) are limited, though my one supper (middle eastern menu, with some items not availalbe) was fine. I found this hotel when I had to move for my last two days in Bordeaux, with limited choices near the train station (I wanted there so I could catch an early bus to the airport; it's also a reasonably convenient spot though the historical city is nicer). Next time I will choose another hotel, though overall, given they are still in set-up mode, I can recommend this one vs. not recommend.

The Jost is overall a very nice hotel. But we had 2 Uber drivers go to the wrong location. Your address is incorrect on Google maps. If you search for Jost in Google maps, it takes you to 64 Rue Amelie, not 64 Rue Amedee, which is 15 minutes away. Once we got there, the check in is in the restaurant, which is 2 levels up from the lobby. The lobby is not open and confusing to find the check in. You should email and tell everyone that check in is in the restaurant and that Google maps address is incorrect. Once we checked in, the room is very nice and clean. It is a huge construction site and pretty loud but nice that it is close to the train. The decorations are very nice, but they are not secure to the shelves. We had a CD and a book fall on us. There are glass vases on the shelves that could easily fall and hurt someone. There is a huge glass vase on the floor that could be knocked into. The windows are very nice, but there is no way to keep them open. There should be a way to keep them open. The flooring, beds and blackout shades were very nice.
