Hotel in zona La Gare du Midi, Biarritz

Hotel centralissimo, personale estremamente cordiale (plauso alla signorina Macarena), colazione per amanti dei dolci. Prezzo alto ma Biarritz e la Francia in generale sono molto cari. Parcheggio pubblico convenzionato vicinissimo alla struttura

This hotel is ideal location just a five minute walk away from the main streets of Biarritz and an easy inexpensive ride from the airport on the number 36 bus. We were greeted efficiently at reception and allocated a superior room on the first floor overlooking the swimming pool. Room was not massive but big enough for two travelling with just one suitcase. Bed was comfortable, full length mirror and plenty of sockets to charge iPad and iPhone. Shower was good ,air conditioning worked effectively and we had a comfortable sleep. Wifi worked well on room and by the side of the pool. As others have said TV lacks any English language stations. Pool is not huge but large enough to cool down and exercise in, there were sufficient loungers around the pool and complimentary towels available from reception. Breakfast was offered in two price ranges. €12 and €20 but neither were great value for money. There is a Carrefour supermarket across the road where you can buy breakfast items and there is a kettle in the room. There was a bar but we never witnessed it open. Hotel did the job, probably good value for Biarritz.

Check in was smooth. We felt as if the receptionist was laughing at us? Room was small but spotless. Think the size of the room is standard for Biarritz. Beds were super comfy. Aircon was great. Shower was lovely. However they need to invest in some blackout curtains as we woke up super early to a bright room- curtains were light and white. Roadworks were on outside but that is not the hotels fault. Reasonable price for location too. Happy with our stay.

Le strutture sono molto utili e amichevole, nonché le strutture come il trattamento spa e il massaggio. Sono anche disponibili deliziosi cibo basco per le scelte. La posizione è assolutamente vicino alla spiaggia che richiede circa poche min da camminare. Raccomando vivamente alle persone che stanno pianificando a Biarritz

I rate the Sofitel a 3 but it’s really only a 2 if I was to only judge the hotel. The location and the pool were the absolute highlight’s and for this we give a 5! Biarritz has a stunning coastline but please spend your money elsewhere! This hotel pretends to be a 5 star hotel with wellness spa. Thank goodness I had not planned my trip around the spa itself. I think if this was in Australia, it would be shut down. When you take the lift to the spa , you arrive into a waste land! Depending on which way you arrive, it is a rabbit warren of empty corridors, closed doors with French signage! I couldn’t even find the toilet. After paying $700 AUD for 3 treatments, you would expect a warm welcome, and someone assisting you to your next treatment. No not here, you are on your own (naked in a robe) trying to ask for directions to the next room however nobody speaks English. My treatment was booked with a Physiotherapist however I think she was barely qualified for a massage! Highlights from my family were the soft robes and spacious rooms, big beds with cozy mattresses toppers and soft linen. Great valet and reception but that’s it for service. Pool is saltwater and perfectly cool! We could not find the indoor pool

The apartment was spacious and the indoor pool area was pleasant if not a little soulless. However I wouldn’t stay here again. My issues were: the coffee machine was full of mould; the reception was closed when we arrived and we had to wait ages for a rather unfriendly receptionist; we got locked out one day as card stopped working and again we had to wait ages for reception. However my major complaint was, we had to pay a deposit that was returned to you only after an overly thorough apartment inspection! I can understand if you damaged something significant but honestly we were told to clean finger marks off the toaster!! We had paid to stay there and were treated like we were at boarding school or something!! On the plus side, there was good parking and it was walking distance into Biarritz, so great spot.

Il parcheggio è ancora abbastanza lungo. Il centro di Lichen è a due chilometri di distanza. Non lontano dalla lampada. La porta non è lontana dalla spiaggia. Il panorama del mare non è molto chiaro. Bialitz è probabilmente il secondo o terzo hotel. Il parcheggio è ancora abbastanza lungo. Il centro di Lichen è a due chilometri di distanza. È vicino alla lampada.

We arrived Hotel Le Biarritz in the middle of the night, desperate to get a room for the night for 2 adults and 3 kids, due to our originally booked apartment hotel next door gave us cardkeys that were not activated upon arrival. The reception was closed and the telephone number in case of ”emergency” was turned off after midnight. We were warmly welcomed by a very nice man, unfortunately I do not remember his name. We got 2 rooms with a very good discount and the 3rd room for free. The children were hungry, so we asked if we could buy some snacks. He offered us pancakes. He went to the kitchen and came out with a trey full of pancakes, yoghurts, and 3 different sorts of cakes and water. He also asked if we wanted breakfast in the morning, but we were not sure we would make it in time, so he told us we can have the breakfast for free. We also had access to the pool the day after. Unfortunately we didn't have time to try it. Our rooms were small, but nice and clean. (I see from the pictures on their website that they have bigger rooms with balcony). In the morning we got breakfast while the kids were still sleeping. We then got a little basket we could bring to the room with full of croissants for the kids. If it wasn't for the already paid apartment hotel, we would have stayed in hotel Le Biarritz for the rest of our stay in Biarritz. We have never ever experienced such a nice welcoming and service in any other hotel we have stayed at before and strongly recommend this hotel for the service and location. It is located near the beach, 5 min walk. 10 min walk to the grocery store and other nice restaurant. The bus stop is also located right outside the hotel. You can also walk all the way to the city on a sidewalk right by the beach. We would definitively one back to hotel Le Biarritz.

Campanile Biarritz When transitting France we nearly always choose Campanile. The rooms are basic but comfortable and pretty much the same whichever one you choose. It is an airport stopover so be aware you could be forgiven for thinking you were on the runway but we knew that having stayed here before. For us the benefit of these is that you can always park, and always get a meal and wine in the restaurant in the evening and breakfast, both at additional cost. This was the case here too but we were disappointed to see no buffet offering in the evening. Every other one we have been to offer this. Despite this the meal we had was lovely. The staff were friendly and helped with translating the menu, so thank you! Breakfast is pretty standard in all the ones we’ve been to. Cereal, croissants, toast, pastries, cheese and ham etc. This one cost around €12. The air con did not work in our room but we were OK despite the weather being on the warm side!!
