Hôtel Le Biarritz

We had room 219 on the front of the hotel. The room was quite big with plenty of room to lay out our cases on the floor as we were only staying 3 nights. It had a small semi circular balcony with a view, which was nice, immaculately clean, freshly decorated and well appointed with crisp white bed linen, plenty of clothes hanging / shelf storage space, a good size flat screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, chair, high quality black out curtains and double patio doors opening onto the balcony. The shower was excellent with an easily controllable thermostatic shower, and a tiled enclosure. All finished to a high quality. Breakfast was a little hap hazard in that scrambled egg and sausage were provided as part of the menu but once they were gone they weren’t refilled. Having said that generally the breakfast was very good and quite varied. The street outside the front of the hotel was busy during the day and quiet at night. There is a bus stop outside the hotel which will take you Saint Jean De Luz and another stop 250m up the road that will take you into Biarritz, so no need to use the car if you so chose. The hotel reception area is a beach theme and has a very comfortable relaxing atmosphere, with a small bar serving a range of draught / bottled beers, wines and spirits, all reasonably priced for a hotel. There is also a small restaurant serving a limited but varied menu if you fancy a night in. We ate there once and the food was good. If you want to eat out there is an endless choice of restaurants on the road to and in Biarritz, but remember that most do not open until 7-7.30pm. If you just fancy a drink there is a beach and bar just down the road where surfers congregate at weekends and evenings. Plenty of free car parking on site.

We have stayed here before. Hotel has been renovated and renamed. Lobby and hotel look much better. Rooms have freshend up. And extra bed for our soon was provided even when saying it wasn’t necessary. Thank you for the extra mille. Superb breakfast, all products very fresh with many choice. Sauna, hamman and swimming pool from Thalmar is one of the reasons we have been booking this hotel for the last few years on our way from the north to the south. Great stay and we will be continue to come back.

The location was perfect, view at the sunsets were amazing, walking distance to the centre of Biarritz, fantastic beach just around the corner, very well equipped gym and good breakfasts.

The hotel was well located, only 10 to 15min walk into town. It was in a beautiful location overlooking the beach. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and the room was spotlessly clean.

Room was comfortable and clean . Was a reasonable walk to centre of Biaritz , with nice restaurants and beach bars nearby. Free access to local spa pool was excellent , just down the road. The beach down the road was lovely , but couldn’t go as no dogs allowed . Staff very kind and pleasant .
