Property is nice, did the job for me for one night. Accommodations are clean, walkable and I did rent a room with sea view, which was nice. The walls are thin, I did hear my upstairs neighbors as they were making a lot of noise, but luckily for me, that lasted for less than 5 minutes! All else was fine

Great ocean view spot
Enjoyed my stay here. The room (403) has an amazing view of the ocean, Grande Beach and the promenade. Location is excellent for town too. Room is small but was traveling alone so was fine. The shower is the middle of room, which was odd but interesting. Hotel staff were excellent as well. Included breakfast, which wasn’t fancy but was fine and had freshly squeezed juices and variety of breads. The spaces in the property are on small side overall, and you can hear a little walking around upstairs. But I would definitely stay here again.

We liked this hotel very much even though the room was rather small and cozy. Check in was very easy as the gentleman in front knew it was us checking in (given we landed on the last flight of the night). Again, our room was small but it had everything we needed. The shower is a shower stall in the middle of the room which was unique. Our room had a balcony (we were on the 2nd floor so not very high up) and we had a nice view of the Grande Plage. The fridge was not cold, however. Breakfast was good and had ample options (toasts, croissants and pain au chocolate, yogurts, cottave cheese, French-style scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, veggies and fruits, lox and hard boiled eggs. Service was friendly. Do note no gym or pool but they have towels for the beach. Front desk can get you a taxi to the train station or airport or day trips. We would stay again.

Great position close to beach, restaurants and stores. Good selection at breakfast. Nice room though somewhat small. BUT WIFI for my tablet in the room kept dropping off - had to use Personal Hotspot. Single elevator for two people covering 7 floors means you may have to wait or walk the stairs. Overall good experience.

Loved the location of the hotel and the buffet breakfast was great, lovely selection and quality. We only stayed for one night but the room had everything we needed. A couple of negatives, the shower gel hadnt been refilled and was empty. They also had a problem with their phone lines, which on reporting to the desk the response was ‘yes, I’ve heard that about that room’. Why not fix it? We were in 508, shortly after arrival we were getting calls to make restaurant bookings etc. didn’t think too much about it and went out. After coming back late it rang multiple times with people trying to get into the hotel. At this point we just pulled the plug out but seriously-it should be fixed as no one wants a rubbish sleep being constantly woken. Reception staff couldn’t have cared less.

Pros: 1. Excellent location right off the Grand Beach, walkable to all main attractions in Biarritz. 2. Full breakfast with great selection of cheeses, meats, baked goods, freshly squeezed juices, delicious yogurts, etc… 3. Friendly multilingual staff Cons: 1. Room (deluxe ocean front) was extremely tiny. If u have more than one suitcase there’ll be no room to walk around. 2. Walls are not soundproof at all, so you’ll hear everything from neighboring rooms and floor above. 3. WiFi in the room is non existent as soon as you close your room door. It only works in the lobby and downstairs cafeteria. 4. There’s only one elevator with maximum capacity for 2 ppl or 2 suitcases and a person, so be prepared to wait a while or take the stairs.

Beaucoup de bruit la première nuit... Un objet frappait sur l'immeuble et heurtait le mur (chambre 601). Mais après avoir demandé un changement de chambre, on nous a gentiment rehaussé notre habitation et déplacés à l'hôtel La suite qui appartient au Windsor. Service impeccable, déjeuner incroyable, site merveilleux, etc.

Just wonderful all around.

Misleading photos, not worth the the cost!
There are several options for hotels close to the ocean and we chose this hotel based on the beautiful photos. We decided to splurge and upgraded to a superior ocean view room. Upon entering our room, I returned to reception and explained that this was not the room that was pictured when I booked. They disagreed with me and told me it was indeed a Superior room and there was no others room to switch to. One of the reasons we love to stay at the beach is the sound of waves at night. This room/hotel is situated above the roof top bar of the casino and the music and partying was so loud we were forced to close the windows. When I awoke at 3:30, the bar had closed and I opened the windows only to be woken up again at 6am by the noise of the street cleaners and the delivery trucks unloading downstairs. The very uncomfortable bed was 2 twin beds pushed together. There were only 2 outlets in the room, one on the one side of the bed and the other near the door which was very inconvenient. Also, the bathroom had not toiletries other than hand gel. The location of the hotel had some shops and restaurants but the main shopping area was a long walk. Needless to say, we were very disappointed in this hotel. Biarritz is a beautiful and friendly town but there are better options and locations available.

Wonderful location. Loved our room looking out over the ocean. Small balcony that we could climb out onto. The included breakfast was one of the best we have EVER had! Such a fun town with so much going on. The elevators were the old fashioned kind that only two can fit into and were so slow! Just dealt with it and still loved this little gem.
