Handy
hotels close to the A10 Paris-Bordeaux motorway
Budget
& quality hotels very
close to motorways and trunk roads
Hotels that are easy to
find
► Click any coloured marker on the map
and a bubble will show up with details of the hotel in that location.
There are plenty of motorway exits that lead to hotels: but it is not
always easy to find them. The hotels listed on this
map have been specifically chosen because they really are close to the
exit, and easy to access. Clicking on a red bubble will open up a brief
information window, with essential information for the hotel, and a
link to the hotels' own websites or other booking sites, with online
booking and often the best offers available.
The
hotels listed include low-cost Formule 1 hotels, budget Ibis, Campanile
and Etap hotels, midscale Novotel and Mercure hotels, as well as some
independent establishments.
NB: "Close to the
exit" does not have to mean noisy. All these modern hotels are well
insulated and soundproofed.

| Recommended
alternative route to avoid Paris: Use the route from
Calais or Boulogne or Le Havre, via Rouen and Chartres; join the A 10
just north of Orleans. Click here for hotels on this route. |
The
A10 autoroute can be reached either from Pairs,
or via Rouen and Chartres, or via (Rouen) Alençon and the A28 /
E402 .
The
A10
is the main French motorway to the southwest. It is a busy motorway,
particularly during summer holiday weekends, as it carries most of the
holiday traffic bound for the west coast of France.
There are two
notable black spots on this autoroute, which often cause serious delays
at peak periods; a) the toll station at Saint Arnoult (the biggest
motorway toll station in Europe), which causes long tailbacks in the
north-east bound direction when there is a lot of traffic returning
towards Paris. b) the ring road round Bordeaux, which can get
snarled up either side of the Pont d'Aquitaine, over the Gironde.
Otherwise this route is plain driving.

hotels in and around Bordeaux (includes Formule 1, Etap, Ibis, Novotel,
Mercure and other Accor brands)
South
of Bordeaux,
the motorway is replaced by dual carriageway (divided highway) route
nationale, the N10, for most of the way to Bayonne. For the last few
kilometres to Bayonne, Irun and the Spanish border, the N10 becomes the
A63 autoroute - which links directly at the border to Spain's Autopista
A-8, and thereafter to the Spanish motorway network.
