Bordeaux
Bordeaux
Bordeaux summers have stepped up. Heatwaves that used to be rare now land most years, and the city’s older buildings — beautiful, thick-walled, built long before climate change — trap the heat and hold it well into the night. The reality most visitors discover too late: the majority of apartments and mid-range hotels in Bordeaux have no air conditioning at all.
Look at the five-year temperature chart below. From June to September the typical daytime high sits around 27°C, and on heatwave days it pushes past 35°C. A genuinely cooled apartment is the difference between sleeping through it and lying awake with the windows open to the street noise.
We only tag a flat as air-conditioned when it genuinely is — not a desk fan, not a portable unit wheeled into one room. Each of these apartments has real, fitted cooling:
