Our Honest Take
From the Hostelpedia team. No BS, just real advice
Bloom is the hostel we'd pick if comfort is non-negotiable. Private bathrooms in every single room. Let that sink in. At 30 EUR a night. The garden bar out back is genuinely one of the nicest outdoor spaces we've seen at any hostel in France. string lights, real greenery, craft cocktails, and a crowd that skews slightly older and more laid-back than your typical party hostel. It's less about meeting 20 people at a bar crawl and more about having a long conversation with someone interesting over a glass of wine in the garden. The location is the one trade-off: you're 10-15 minutes by tram from the center. But the neighborhood is quiet, the tram is reliable, and honestly after a day of walking through Bordeaux, coming back to this garden feels like a reward. The 8.9 rating is the highest of any hostel in Bordeaux and it's earned.
๐ฏ Insider Tips
- 1Book the garden-facing room if available. Waking up to that view with morning coffee is next level.
- 2The continental breakfast is worth the extra few euros. Fresh pastries from a local bakery.
- 3Take the tram (line B) from Victoire. 10 minutes to the center, runs until midnight.
- 4Ask the staff about Marche des Capucins for lunch. It's Bordeaux's food market and it's spectacular.
๐ฅ Why We Love It
Private bathrooms in every room. At 30 EUR/night this is almost unfair to other hostels.
The garden bar is genuinely beautiful. String lights, real plants, and cocktails that taste like they cost twice the price.
8.9 rating makes it the highest-rated hostel in Bordeaux. Reviewers are borderline emotional about how good it is.
Continental breakfast with fresh pastries. Skip the overpriced cafe and eat here.
The design and cleanliness are boutique-hotel level. Your Instagram will thank you.
๐ The Full Story
Bloom is the hostel that makes people say 'wait, this is a hostel?' Private bathrooms in every room. A garden that feels like a secret courtyard in the south of France. A bar that serves craft cocktails under string lights. It's the kind of place that redefines what budget accommodation can be.
The garden is the soul of Bloom. Shaded by trees, lined with outdoor furniture, it's where guests gather for morning coffee and evening drinks. The bar serves local beers and well-made cocktails at prices that won't wreck your budget. Board games are scattered around and the vibe is relaxed, social without being pushy.
Every room comes with its own private bathroom, which is almost unheard of at this price point. Beds are comfortable, the soundproofing is decent, and the design is modern throughout. Continental breakfast is available and worth it. fresh pastries, fruit, and good coffee.
The location in Nansouty is a 10-minute tram ride from the center, or a pleasant 20-minute walk along the Cours de la Somme. The neighborhood is residential and quiet, with a supermarket and local restaurants nearby.
