We paid an additional €100 a night for a 1 bedroom apartment which was a good size but very very very tired.We stayed 5 nights and on the first night we had a broken light bulb in the kitchen also the kitchen window wouldn’t open,one of the front room French doors was broken and the handle was removed and the shutter didn’t work,the toilet seat was broken,the tap in the bathroom was very loose and tiles in the shower needed re grouting,but the staff were excellent and also the location.Hense the 3 star rating it’s in need of a revamp and would then justify its 4 stars in my opinion.

The service was super good and professional, very nice! There is a parking just next to the Hotel, perfect if you travel with car. One improvement they could do is put up better blackout curtains/blinds. In our room it was not dark until sunset.

The location of the hotel is fantastic, centrally located and walkable to everything you'd want to do in Biarritz. Room was a bit on the small side but has everything you need, especially for a short stay like ours. Staff was friendly and the rooms were tidy and clean. Would recommend.

Great hotel

The hotel was so cute in the little plaza. Our room had a balcony that we loved sitting on to watch people and look out at night and in the morning. We were early to check in and the woman at the front desk was very accommodating, letting us store our bags, change and use the WiFi. She was also very helpful getting us a taxi and helping us get around.

Great place in old town, close to beach.

Great experience. Nice room with balcony, great view of the sea, nice staff. Others have noted that the hotel appears run-down but it did not at all seem like that to me.

Great location, clean and comfortable hotel and all staff were nice! Only A/C needs maintenance. We were there during a heat wave and there was no air conditioning that could help lower the temperature. During “normal” hot days everything was perfectly fine.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The property is well located near the main beaches, restaurants bars and nightlife. The hotel was of reasonable standard but we booked a quad room with courtyard view, but in fact there was no view as we were below the courtyard level, this meant the room was very dark. I expect other rooms in other parts of the hotel would have been fine but there was no other availability, and the room was at much lower cost than alternatives. We would have considered other options if the room clearly stated ‘no view’ or basement. However biarritz is wonderful and we enjoyed our stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Charming hotel in a lovely area. There was so much to do within a 3-10 minute walk of the hotel. Shops, restaurants, fresh food market, beach, etc. The room was very comfortable for 3 people. The bathroom was quite large with a nice shower. AC was a bonus, as was the mini fridge. Comfortable beds. Very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful in multiple languages. If you have mobility issues, know that you cannot drive up to the entrance. And the elevator is really tiny so we mostly used stairs. Parking is about a 4 minute walk with lots of stairs, and getting to the parking garage is a bit of an adventure. (Many streets in Biarritz are pedestrian only,) it’s also paid parking, with was rather expensive. If you can avoid a car in Biarritz, I would. It’s a very walkable place.

A superb location for seeing Biarritz on foot. It is in a quiet town centre square (virtually no cars) with sea views from balconies. If driving into Biarritz there is a public underground car park just a few yards away. The airport is as close as it could be (20-25 euro taxi fare) but the train station is surprisingly quite a long way (15 -20 euro taxi fare) although plenty of buses. It does not feel like a 4 star hotel - the first impression of the ground floor is very dark - it was evidently refurbished 10 or so years ago to a style that may have been popular at the time. The dining room is only open for breakfast and the tiny gym probably rarely used. No bar or lounge. Both face the square so when you first arrive It almost seems the hotel is closed. We only ever saw a friendly receptionist who again is hidden away. This feeling is not helped by the tiny lift and narrow commonways (on second floor) needing a new carpet but our room itself was absolutely fine. We had a junior suite - just a large bedroom with settee but on the corner of the hotel so had a door onto the front balcony (sun in morning) and side window which at last gave a feeling of space. Shower room and wc both ok, in fact the shower itself was excellent. Kettle, coffee pod machine, fridge (no mini bar) all ok. All seemed clean as did the room. Having seen a lot of bad reviews we went with trepidation but the hotel suited our needs due to wonderful location - close to restaurants, beach and little harbour

It's a middle level hotel. What surprised in a not nice way was that I hung the Do not disturb sign as I was only staying 2 nights and did not want anyone to enter. They still entered when I was not there, they emptied my full glass of wine, and I found my clothes on the floor while they had to be drying on the rack... I don't understand this cleaning when I made it clear that no one should enter.
