Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with some great highlights like the lovely sea and square view from the balcony but the room size was a bit small. The service was extremely helpful, making my stay more comfortable. The location was fantastic, right by the ocean and close to everything I needed, although dining options could have been more diverse.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room was on the smaller side for a superior double and lacked soundproofing, the fact that these features were included at no extra cost was a plus. The service was disappointing initially but turned around to be incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional, going out of their way to assist. The location was absolutely amazing, overlooking the main bay and close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The dining experience was mediocre, with limited options not offering great value for the money. Overall, the facilities were decent, but there is room for improvement.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Biarritz, overlooking the main bay and near the church, offering a vibrant atmosphere but may be noisy due to nearby restaurants. The rooms, though on the smaller side, are clean, well-appointed, and come with a balcony providing a charming view of the church. The service is friendly and always available, ensuring a welcoming stay. The dining options are limited and could be improved for better value. The facilities are adequate but lacking in variety.
I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, with a very comfortable bed at a reasonable price. The hotel's restaurant offered a good menu selection. The location was fantastic, right in the center of the city, close to beautiful walks, the ocean, and the shopping area. However, the dining experience was not the best value for money with limited breakfast options.
The hotel had rooms that were slightly smaller than expected but had a nice balcony with a partial sea view. The well-glazed windows and shutters helped keep the room cozy. The service seemed a bit under pressure, but they did attend to maintenance issues promptly. The location was perfect for exploring the beach and nearby attractions. The dining options were decent but could use some improvement. Overall, a mixed experience with some highlights and areas that could be enhanced.
My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The room I stayed in was horrible, but it did have a shower and a fridge, which was convenient. However, the larger spotless room with a lovely view and a small balcony made up for the initial disappointment. The service provided was fabulous despite some understaffing issues, with the staff being friendly and attentive. The location was very good, right in the middle of the city center and only a few steps away from the beach, although it did bring along some noise from the streets. The dining experience had a good choice, including a good Omelette, though it was a bit expensive at €10 per person for a continental breakfast. The facilities were well-maintained, but the price was not really justified considering the value for money issues.
My stay at the hotel was truly a mixed bag. The room was quite small, but the balcony offered a nice view of the beach. The service was warm and welcoming, though not consistent. The location was perfect, right in the heart of everything, but the dining options left much to be desired.
My stay at the hotel was truly wonderful. The location was fantastic, right on the ocean in the charming town of Biarritz, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and surprisingly quiet thanks to the double glazing, although being near a cleaning cupboard was a minor drawback. The service was excellent, with the staff being most helpful and friendly, although appearing a bit under pressure at times. The dining experience, while satisfactory, could have offered a little more variety. Overall, a great value for money option in beautiful Biarritz.
The hotel offers a stunning view of the square St Eugenie and the sea, perfect for elderly or disabled travelers. The rooms, although smelling odd daily, provide a unique experience with their exceptional location overlooking the square and the sea.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very comfy, but the en-suite facilities were a little tight. The noise insulation was excellent, but I wouldn't recommend it for elderly or disabled guests. The location was perfect, near the beach and the town center, with plenty of restaurants nearby. The service was top-notch, with extremely helpful and cheerful staff. However, the dining experience was not worth the money, and the limited options made it disappointing.
