Wonderful
Could not have asked for a better location right in the shadows of the cathedral and the main square. Close to Rue St Catherine for all the wonderful shops. The Cardinal Suite was just divine although the sloping ceilings took a bit of getting used to initially. The kitchenette was extremely handy for the couple of days we were rained in. The bathroom is just beautiful but again sloping ceiling and odd flooring in shower recess took some getting used to but the layout and design features were so lovely.
Make sure to have some of the best casual delicious cuisine we had on our trip in nearby La Mamma (a short stroll from Hotel Cardinal) but for something extremely artisan and fancy try Le Fine Bouche!!
Getting an UBER to and from is difficult with as the street has been pedestrianised.

Great location, pleasant staff.
Not easy to access by car due to pedestrianised streets. Only heat in the room provided by an electric heater which was not ideal given the weather. No in-house restaurant or bar.

Location is very central and walking distance to everything
The odd smell in the room (like stagnating waste water from the bathroom)

The room was beautiful and very clean
It was very expensive and location was ok, but felt a bit out of the way

It is a small, absolutely lovely hotel, located in the pedestrian only section of downtown Bordeaux. It is within easy walking distance of many sites, e. g., it is next to the Cathedral. The staff are very friendly and efficient. We had breakfast in our room every morning and they would come in and set up on our table.
There was nothing we did not like.

This mini-boutique hotel is very suitable if you're not looking for big hotel amenities (and their attendent costs). It is on one of the main squares of the city, and walkable to most all of the other important sights. Breakfast at extra cost was served only in the room so we declined, but found a number of other ways to have that meal (although many "breakfast places" didn't open until 0900 or later. Steps to the tram that takes you to and from the airport but no direct transit line to the central train station - Uber probably best to get there.
Staff was quite helpful in every respect. With only a dozen rooms or so the building, tucked among others in a pedestrian zone, this hotel seemed always to be quiet.
We enjoyed our stay on two separate occasions. Noting the points outlined above we had little to criticize and much to admire,

Fantastic discreet hotel within easy walking distance of all main attractions. Amazing service from the off, nothing was to much trouble. Stored our luggage before and after checkout and arranged taxis. Awesome, thank you.

Small "boutique" hotel with about 10 rooms total in one of the main tourist areas of Bordeaux City (across from cathedral), near two tram lines, one running from and to the airport for easy access. 10 minute walk from main square, mostly in pedestrian zone, including longest pedestrian street in Europe (as reported by locals).
Hotel does not have a dining area, so breakfast is served in the room. There are a number of local eateries for that meal so it's not much of an inconvenience to go out each day (although they usually don't open until 0900 or later, French style).
There is at least one staff person on site 24 hours a day, for information and general services.
As long as you understand that this hotel is small, with limited dining services, it provides all the necessities to explore old Bordeaux City and beyond, with few other negatives, at a reasonable price.
