Location comfortable bed

It was not clear to me the complication to park the car when we arrived, as the hotel does not offer one. That said, in the Place Clemenceau which has a super cheap rate of €4 all nitght until 8 am. There are not far also large open air car parks with ridiculously cheap rates, like €3 per day or similar. Again, Pascal at the reception was very helpful in letting us know the options. The hotel is really not new, but it does not feel too tired and definitely is not uncomfortable.

Le Bourbon it is located in a really central place, walking distance from all city centre places to visit. We were welcomed by Pascal, absolutely smashing, really welcoming, helpful and friendly. He also speaks several languages. The room was spacious and the toilet, not modern but really usable. There is good aircon, as the rooms can get hot, we were there in the middle of a heat wave. Breakfast was generous buffet and good, with some lovely baguette and very good coffee. There were works on the square where the hotel is , but it was very quiet at night anyway. Wifi as also very good. Pau is a lovely little city, with great walks and unexpected historical facts, like having been the place where was born the last king that French people loved( the first Bourbon). All in all, a very good stay, Merci Beaucoup Pascal!

The hotel's equipment is old, the rooms also need some renovation. There was construction work going on in the square in front of the hotel, which was a bit disturbing, but this is not the hotel's fault. Overall, we recommend this hotel for 1-2 nights in Pau due to its location.

The accommodation was in the center, close to attractions, terraces and restaurants.We didn't need public transportation, everything was within easy walking distance.The cleanliness was acceptable.

The hotel was very dated, and could certainly do with upgrading. In room facilities were non-existent. The wifi was poor, there was no English language TV channel (just CNN would have been acceptable). In-room tea-making facilities would greatly enhance comfort in the room.

The hotel location cannot be beaten! Right on Place Clemenceau, the centre of Pau, and within walking distance to all the main points of attraction.

Nothing to complain about.

Very friendly hotel. Bit dated but not an issue as location was central. Reception desk so friendly and helpful, despite my poor French, I will try to improve.

Reception on first floor not ground floor, noise from revelers in square at night on weekends and in morning for rooms facing the square may be bothersome for some, room was quite small and could be too small for 2 people needing their space (space between end of bed and desk was maybe 6 inches), water pressure not good, one paper square of shampoo and small bar of soap given,

Great location, fast & friendly & helpful check-in, very reasonable price for location, very clean throughout, comfortable bed, air conditioned rooms, elevator to all 4 floors, reasonable price for breakfast (8.30 euro), small room made good use of available space, lots of restaurants nearby

Some noise from outside but that was to be expected from location and was not really that much of an issue - it could have been far worse (redeveloping the next door opticians early in the morning didn’t help though). Breakfast options a little sparse even for a cheap continental breakfast, but good enough to start the day with.

Great central location, and the staff were pleasant and welcoming. Room was clean and generally in line with what was expected. Good value for money, just don’t expect the Ritz.

The breakfast is too basic. The building and rooms are old.

The hotel has a great location and cost-benefit.

The manager was extremely kind, despite our slight language barrier. The check-in was smooth. The location is prime with a view over the main square. With the windows closed it was nice and quiet. The airconditioning was great. The hotel style is a bit outdated but does have a real charm. Some minor things could be fixed (loose tile in bathroom, broken frame in hallway etc.) but overall well kept.

The breakfast is overpriced. The air con was not very effective.

The receptionist was superb. He did not speak very good English, and we were limited in French but this did not stop him making us feel very welcome and attempting to engage an interest in us and our plans. Great location too.

Air conditioning went off at night when we needed it. Springs were popping up in the bed.

Great proximity to attractions, good housekeeping service and friendly staff

I thought the Mountains were going to be closer than what they actually were.

The location was great. There was a very good restaurant that was diagonally locarted from the Hotel just across the square. The town had some nice pedestrian streets and shopping areas.

Parking only available at an underground parking facility.

Very good location for sights. Value for money.

Stayed in July 2024

Location related street noise certain nights due to lack of soundproofing.

Central location in the heart of Pau.
