Biarritz jest pięknym miejscem wartym odwiedzenia.
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja , baseny i sauna.

Cons:

Budynek jest w stanie wymagającym wielu napraw . Elewacje są brudne , zniszczone , na korytarzach w wielu miejscach dziury , odrapania. Sprawia to bardzo nieprzyjemne wrażenie . Nigdy nie widziałam hotelu 5 gwiazdkowego z tak złym stanie.

Pros:

Le confort du lit reste parfait.

Cons:

Cela fait quelques années que j’y viens, une grande rénovation s’impose. Je viens une semaine de grand soleil et personne ne nous informe que la climatisation ne marche pas. Au prix de l’hôtel j’ai trouvé ça très limite. On m’a même facturé de l’eau alors qu’il faisait très chaud dans la chambre.

Pour une halte confortable
Pros:

L'accueil. Le confort. La quiétude. Nous n'avons pas utilisé les équipements (piscine, hammam...). Possibilité de se préparer une tisane ou un café dans la chambre.

Cons:

Lit très confortable, mais pas assez ferme à notre goût.
Le bruit incessant du vent de jour et de nuit et le froid entrant par les joints de la baie vitrée de la terrasse. Très dommage...
L'état de la terrasse laisse à désirer.
