Bordeaux with a dog - What accommodation with a dog in Bordeaux?
More and more structures (hotels, campsites, apartments, palaces, unusual accommodation) are now welcoming dogs. Faced with this ever-increasing offer, I had to favor certain selection criteria to meet the requirements of my doggie.
Because yes it is very good that a majority of hotels in particular in Bordeaux now accept dogs, but under what conditions? Many welcome dogs but are not at all suitable for animals and are not equipped to ... It is often to attract customers that many hotels allow dogs, so beware before you book.
Of course, one of the first criteria to choose your dog friendly hotel in Bordeaux will be able have enough space in the accommodation and ideally a small garden. This is what I recommend as a priority selection in your research.
If your search was unsuccessful and the hotels meeting these criteria were all full, check that there are at least green spaces nearby for the needs of your dog but also for his walks.
This is what I sought as a priority while maintaining my requirements of:
- Good location (see neighborhoods to avoid in Bordeaux);
- Comfort;
- Cleanliness ;
- Reasonable price.
Here is my selection of 2 best dog-friendly hotels in Bordeaux : 1 dog friendly hotel in the Bordeaux center and 1 dog friendly hotel at Bordeaux lake.
Best hotel in the center of Bordeaux accepting dogs
Here is the hotel I recommend: L'Escapade Bordelaise, garden side
As it is impossible to find a dog-friendly hotel with garden in the very center of Bordeaux, I offer you a beautiful guest room ideally located in the center of Bordeaux and very close to the Bordeaux public garden.
Thus, you will be able to benefit from all the advantages of being housed in the center of Bordeaux while having facilities to take your dog out to do his business or to take a nice walk with him. Indeed, by having the public garden just leaving the hotel, your stay in the heart of Bordeaux will be also perfect for your pooch !
In addition, you will benefit from a very warm welcome, spacious, comfortable rooms and very appetizing breakfasts!
Another asset and not the least: its excellent value for money.

Bordeaux with a dog - Procedures and documents to take
Wherever you go with your dog in France, you will have to check in advance that he has a microchip and that his health record is up to date with its vaccines. Of course, his health record will have to follow you everywhere, especially if you do a small circuit in France...
And for those who travel by plane with their dog, it will also be necessary to take other steps (European passport, Airline agreements, etc.). For this, it is strongly recommended to do it well in advance to contact and question the Airline directly.
