“Steps from Grande Plage beach, this recently renovated hotel sits in a semi-pedestrian square, promising a quieter stay near the heart of Biarritz; its brasserie and terrace invite relaxed outdoor dining. For families and business travelers alike, the location supports both leisure and professional pursuits, steps away from the city's surfing scene and cultural attractions. I think that the hotel makes an engaging base for exploring Biarritz.”
