This was an amazing place to stay in Paulliac!!! It was quite expensive, but it included a dinner…read morepackage at Cafe Lavinal, and a wine tasting at Lynch Bages, where my husband wanted to do wine tasting anyway. It was located so close to every winery on the Left Bank, so extremely worth it for location purposes alone. We could have saved by staying in Bordeaux for all 3 nights of our wine tasting excursion, but honestly it was worth not having to drive 1 hour to Left Bank, wine taste all day, and drive another 1 hour back. You want to enjoy your time in Paulliac!! The hotel itself was so charming though! There were several living room areas that you could relax in, a swimming pool, and even a small vineyard area with tables and service should you want something small to eat. It was extremely relaxing, and although there really is nothing to do on the Left Bank except wine tasting, it would have been nice to stay another day to enjoy this beautiful and charming hotel. Our room was very modern and cute. The swimming pool had plenty of lounging chairs - wish we had time to retreat here, but we simply didn't have the time. The service was so amazingly sweet and genuine here!!! The front desk attendant was so accommodating for us. We told her that we had an early train in Bordeaux at 7:45am, and she gave us helpful information on suggesting when to leave. Also, because of our early check out time, she offered to have breakfast and coffee ready take-away for us! When we checked out at 6am the next morning, we could smell the coffee when we walked in the hallway down to the lobby, and the breakfast pastries were ready prepared for us in a box, and the box was WARM and the croissants were delicious!!!! Wow. I wish we could have stayed a little longer to enjoy the real breakfast. Take me back!!!!!!

The nice pool and the well-equiped gym (opened for one customer at a time during COVID) were good additions to an otherwise flawless stay.

I came to this hotel to experience the 2 Michelin star restaurant. We ordered the tasting menu with…read morewine pairing. It was a great experience, but I was slightly disappointed by the service. Other Michelin starred restaurants are SO attentive. You don't even have a moment to look for a server, they are already at your table with whatever they anticipated you may need. The staff here is super lovely, very sweet and friendly, but at times I found myself trying to get their attention. The menu is great. The use of oyster foam for multiple dishes was amazing. They are also very accommodating with dietary restrictions. It was strange for me to have the same exact potato pancake thing here that I have had at another Michelin restaurant. Looked the same, tasted the same (which tasted like heaven) but I was slightly disappointed by the lack of creativity. Wine pairing was good. Could have been better considering we are smack dab in the middle of vineyards, but it was good. I REALLY liked the staff, but otherwise had lukewarm feelings about this place. Dinner and wine came out to about $240 USD.

The restaurant has an a la carte as well as a set menu. Great wine list, and a full bar. Service is everything you could expect. Attentive, professional, and helpful.

The riverside deck tables looked like they would be a great dining area in warmer weather. Next time we're driving in the Bordeaux region, I would love to stay again!

I am in awe by the audacity of anyone leaving this hotel less than 5 stars. It is amazing and…read moreworth every penny. Let me start with the staff, because they deserve a lot of praise. I believe I emailed the hotel at least two dozen times with various questions about the spa, the restaurant, bike rentals, airport transportation and more, and every time their responses were prompt and helpful, including getting us a table at the restaurant even though their reservation system indicated they were booked. At the hotel, the front desk, bar, and restaurant staff were wonderful - friendly and very helpful. It helps, by the way, if you make even a modicum of effort to speak french - say Bonjour or Bonsoir (good day or good evening), say s'il vous plait (please), and say merci (thank you). In that way, you don't come off like an arrogant tourist. The hotel itself, as you can probably tell from the photos, is beautiful and no expense is spared for your comfort. The rooms are large and welcoming. The beds and very comfortable and the bathrooms and showers are great. We had a beautiful patio overlooking the vineyards. The back of the hotel has outside tables overlooking a beautiful courtyard as well as some lounge chairs to relax in. Pool looked good, but we didn't use it. Location is great. It's about 3-3.5 km from the village using a lesser used road/bike path behind the hotel (as opposed to the main road which might be a bit too dangerous). I would call it an easy bike ride, but its a hilly area and it's a bit strenuous to get there. Much easier on the way back. There are taxis, if biking isn't your thing. Melissa used the spa but unfortunately, I waited too long to reserve a treatment and wasn't able to go myself. But during her spa treatment, I had a nice time at the bar chatting with the bartender about French whiskeys and trying a few myself. Finally, our meal was absolutely superb. Besides a cheese plate (wonderful), some wine (from Saint Emilion, of course, and delicious) and a tray of small appetizers from the kitchen, I got the John Dory confit, which is a meaty white fish. It was excellent. One of my favorite meals in our 9 days in Bordeaux. This hotel spoiled me for all hotels in the future. I don't know why we would ever travel anywhere ever again but to Saint Emilion just to stay at this hotel.
