It had certainly been a while… nobody had mentioned icebergs in Bordeaux since the Vikings, who invaded at the end of the ninth century. But, since December 2007, the flawless white form of Seeko’o (Inuit for a mass of ice) has been adding a hint of cool to the prestigious listed monuments that line the quays of Bordeaux. Perfectly integrated with the 18th-century façades, Seeko’o has established itself as a major symbol of innovation in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed “city of stone”.

The story of Seeko’o is the epic tale of a crazy family with an appetite for danger, who set off in search of the great southern yeti (King Kong Architecture). They shared a common goal: to create a boutique hotel in Bordeaux (45 suites) which is playful and creative, without compromising any of the international standards expected of a luxury hotel. Seeko’o is an unorthodox urban landmark, a hotel created by adventurers to welcome the 21st-century traveller.

Choose between a vast loft suite suitable for a family with 2 children under 10, or loft style rooms, sloping ceilings and large windows, a round bed...All suites include free WI-FI, safe, mini bar, iPod stereo, 82cm LCD TV, organic toiletries, satin bed sheets, light dimmers and more.

Room rates start at around €200 a night for 2.
