The only good of this hotel is the proximity to grande plage only a 5 minutes walk. The location to the beach and city centre. Aldo. The bus statiin is next to it so it is convenient for sb who wants to tranfer from Gare de Biarritz and airport. The rooms are old, small and definitely need renovation especially the bathroom. Old and in need of renovation. Totally disappointed.

Breakfast was lovely and plentiful with freshly-squeezed orange juice. Room was very comfortable - we had asked for room on a low floor, which we got. All staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is just a short walk from the very sandy beach and the bay surfers enjoy. It's also a couple of hundred yards from the town centre, a nightclub and post office. We ate each evening at the Bistrot Angeluan at the end of nearby Rue de la Bergerie. The staff there were very friendly and helpful - especially Josephine who speaks excellent English which she self-taught.
