Hôtel de la Plage

Hotel lives up to its high reviews. It is situated at the Bay of Biscay and the main shopping and restaurant neighborhood. It was easy walking And viewing the beach with swimmers enjoying the temperate water. The hotel had the friendliest staff that I have ever experienced and I am an old traveler. And they were sympathetic and attentive upon learning that our luggage was delayed. They enthusiastically with kindness helped me with my learning french. The hotel was modern with a seaside vibe. Our room (#111) was quiet and larger than the hotel website room photos. Comfortable beds and pillows. I was able to watch a couple of english speaking TV channels. The Breakfast was fabulous and worth 21 euros. They made good americano espresso with hot milk as requested. We had their dinner veal dish which was very tasty. The IPA beer was Marea which my husband enjoyed. I had the glass of rose which was perfect for sipping with or without food. In France, all areas have safe tap water to drink. The hotel kept a pitcher of water and basque cake available for its guests.

Lovely hotel in a great location just beside the beach so you can pop out for an early or evening swim in the clear water. Spotlessly clean with lovely helpful staff. Bathroom was superb and the bed and room, though not overly large, was very comfortable. Very well located to wander through Biarritz.

Spectacular location in an amazing destination. Roof top bar/restaurant has unbelievable views. All of the staff are very friendly and accommodating. Rooms lean toward minimalist. Less than 10 minutes from the airport and so many restaurants and shops within walking distance.

We all need this kind of view, sound, fragrance and decoration ;) People are great, breakfast is very Good, location is amazing. Best place to start a running workout with view ;)

Amazing location and excellent staff. Rooms are on the small side. So many great restaurants in walking distance. Roof top bar in incredible.

We stayed at Hotel de la Plage in Biarritz for one night as part of our road trip through the South of France. The hotel’s location is both its biggest strength and its main challenge: arriving by car is not exactly straightforward due to its position, but if you book a room overlooking Port Vieux beach, the view is truly exceptional.|The welcome at reception was managed by just one person, who struggled with English and offered only limited guidance. Information about car access was unclear: after passing the entry barrier, we later discovered—only by trial and error—that we were not supposed to continue past the traffic light but instead turn back, circle around, and wait for the receptionist to reopen the barrier from outside. Not the smoothest start to our stay.|There was no luggage assistance at check-in or check-out—perhaps understandable given the summer heatwave, but still disappointing for a hotel in this category. Parking is self-managed, and guests need to hope for a spot in one of the nearby underground car parks. We were lucky enough to find space in the closest one, but be warned: access lanes and parking spaces are extremely tight, so smaller or mid-size cars are strongly recommended.|Our room, however, made up for much of the hassle: located on a higher floor, it offered a spectacular view of the sea, tasteful décor, and a stylish bathroom—although the frosted sliding door provided little privacy.|The rooftop terrace is a highlight, perfect for sunset drinks or a romantic dinner. Breakfast is served in the same location, but it was fairly basic both in terms of choice and quality.|Overall, this is a good hotel with an unbeatable location, but it could greatly improve by paying more attention to guest services.

Clean, comfortable, and tasteful stay. Rooms very well equipped and had a great few nights sleep. Huge bathroom and spacious room.

We didn’t stay at the hotel but went for pre-dinner drinks and to watch the sunset at the rooftop bar. What a fantastic location. There were six of us in the group. We were given a great table with a view of the sunset. The cocktails were delicious and we also had some very tasty snacks. There was also some very cool live music which added to the great ambience. The staff were all very friendly and helpful in choosing our drinks which was the icing on the cake. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a cool place to hang out in Biarritz.
