Mama Shelter Bordeaux - 3 stars An unusual place to stay in Bordeaux

Mama Shelter Bordeaux, a stylish and festive hotel in the heart of Bordeaux

At 19 rue Poquelin Molière, a stone's throw from the Allées de Tourny and the Place des Quinconces, the Mama Shelter Bordeaux stands out as a unique destination in Bordeaux's hotel scene. Designed by Philippe Starck, the hotel boasts a strong and instantly recognizable visual identity: raw concrete, graffiti on the ceiling, an oversized foosball table, a lively central bar, and a decidedly festive atmosphere. Here, a stay is more than just sleeping—it's a complete experience in a place where comfort, design, and conviviality blend seamlessly.

Mama Shelter Bordeaux: cozy and well-designed rooms for all types of guests

Mama Shelter offers five room categories, from the most compact to the most spacious, to suit all tastes and budgets. From the Small Mama, with its perfectly optimized 15 to 17 square meters, to the XXL Mama, which combines two adjoining rooms to accommodate up to five people, each space has been designed to blend comfort and character. All rooms feature five-star bedding, organic toiletries, and a selection of free movies. The Large and XL rooms boast ultra-comfortable queen-size beds, and some are accessible to guests with reduced mobility. The international press has praised the quality of the beds, describing them as criminally comfortable.

Mama Shelter Bordeaux, much more than a hotel: a living space open to the city

Staying at Mama Shelter Bordeaux also means enjoying everything the hotel has to offer: a buffet breakfast served daily from 7 am, a restaurant open for lunch and dinner with generous and creative cuisine, a lively bar open until 1 am, a panoramic rooftop terrace reopening in March 2026, and Sunday brunch with nanny service for families. Secure private parking at €24 per day and Wi-Fi access make both business trips and leisure getaways easier. Ideally located in the heart of Bordeaux, Mama Shelter is the perfect starting point for exploring the city on foot and immersing yourself in the Bordeaux lifestyle.
