At walking distance from the Place des Quinconces, the National Opera, the famous Place de la Bourse with its Water Mirror and the Quais de la Gironde, its location is perfect to discover what makes Bordeaux so special. So come to Bordeaux and discover this wonderful place! Settle down in the private garden in the shade of a fig tree or at a terrace of the Place Gambetta to do your homework, then enjoy your break with a delicious canelé (typical cake from Bordeaux made with rum and natural vanilla) in Sainte Anne street in the animated pedestrian area of the city-centre!
