Search Best Hotels in Margaux

My mother and I stayed there for 3 nights in July. We each had room. Pros: - Architecturally nice main building - Lovely helpful staff (but see below) - At the edge of Margaux with vineyards on the side of the grounds. It feels like you are having breakfast in the vineyards. - 10 mins walk from Chateau Margaux. - Nice pool but not at the hotel. You will have to walk to Chateau Marojallia 5 mins away. - generous free parking facilities. Cons: - Superficially clean but deep cleaning is needed (my mother's fridge was dirty) - The staff do everything from reception, cleaning and serving in the restaurant which probably explains why they don't have the time to clean fully the rooms. The only thing they don't do is the ”cooking”. - I am comfortable that a least some of the food served in the restaurant is not made on the premises. I would probably say all but conversations with the staff on this were only about some of the food. - Tattered decor. - Problems with water pressure in the rooms: too much for me (on the first day the shower head actually came off its holder and spun around the bathroom as if it had a life on its own). Not enough water pressure in my mother's room. - Poor wifi and TV doesn't work well.

So I tend to book the hotels as my husband has picked awful places. I saw the pictures and thought great this looks good, pool for the son and food for us!. You drive past some beautiful chateaus and I thought great I’ve don’t it again!. We took a sharpe right, went down a bumpy road and then we passed a sewage works, I thought this isn’t good my heart dropped. We drove a little further and well the gates were less than perfect. We then pulled up to a tired looking building with a miss mash of other buildings. I was gutted. We entered the lobby after me being in a wheelchair as I’d recently been recovering with a broken ankle. Being wedged in as doors weren’t great and there was a lip. Receptionists were busy chatting about something more interesting than their new guests until another receptionist came along to show us to our room. Knowing I was in a wheelchair obviously she took us so far and said sorry the lift is out of service, can you walk up these stairs, I did with a struggle, my husband dragged the chair up. We walk a while and got to the room. The room was fine, bathroom fine and toilet separate which was good. There was a fridge, safe, trouser press and hairdryer. The bathroom had two robes, towels for two and two pairs of slippers. Unfortunately there was three of us. Fridge had two waters. There was a balcony overlooking the golf course which was nice but still for two. We went to the indoor swimming pool and was told it was 16 and over, my son is 12. Fortunately she let us in. The spa lady was lovely. The pool was fine, the steam room fine sauna was fine but a bit tired. We went looking for the restaurant and eventually found a staff member to show us. It was a bit of a walk from main reception but very close to our room. We the dribbled across disabled parking and an outdoor lift a stone throw from our room. Not once was we told this. We booked the restaurant, unfortunately they don’t really cater for fussy kids but we thought the food was lovely. Staff were really friendly too. If I was local I’d definitely visit the restaurant. The only small thing was there chairs were fraid underneath so looked scruffy. But food was lovely. So room 303 kettle no plug socket near, plug socket not working and lamp with not socket to plug it in. Bathroom the shower knob was broken and came off in hand. I’d say if you like golf it’s fine but I’d not return. It’s definitely not wheelchair friendly. It’s dated and not worth the money. The room was ok but mismatch and dated. The outside and some buildings were awful in appearance.

I recently stayed at the Chateau Meyre, France for a holiday with my wife. The hotel is located in the heart of the Medoc region near Bordeaux. It's within a short drive of many of the region's vineyards/chateaus etc. The room I stayed in was spacious and well-appointed, with a comfortable bed, a large bathroom, and a beautiful view of the French countryside. The staff were friendly and helpful, booking us trips and advising places to visit. They went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. The food (breakfast and Dinner) was excellent, cooked fresh daily by their local chef. They also provided snacks and drinks through-out the day. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.
