The best thing about Amorino is that you can find their delicious rose shaped ice cream across the globe! They are the only ice cream parlour I've found where the flavour choice is unlimited, choosing your ice cream by rose size rather than number of flavours... making the experience deliciously delightful and different! #LifeAtExpedia

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Bordeaux

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Bordeaux is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city’s rich history, stunning landmarks, and cultural attractions, staying for at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This timeframe allows visitors to enjoy visits to iconic monuments, partake in insightful tours, discover local wineries, and explore museums. Additionally, you can delight in the scenic river views, indulge in shopping and dining experiences, and stroll through beautiful gardens, all while enjoying great value for money.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Bordeaux, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates on accommodation close to your travel date. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay updated on flash sales and special promotions that could help you secure cheap accommodation. Additionally, the Smart Shopping feature in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re informed if prices drop or new rooms become available for your last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate depending on factors like the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in Bordeaux. If you're seeking a unique experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we’ll recommend alternative dates that could be more affordable, increasing your chances of finding a great deal.
  4. Consider your location: Staying nearer to key attractions or city centres can offer convenience, but it usually tends to come with higher costs. For more affordable options, consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between price and easy access to the sites you plan to visit. You might also look into independent hotels a bit further out, which can provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
