Vraiment une expérience exceptionnelle.
Pros:

Chambre "surclassée" exceptionnelle. Personnel amicalement dévoué. Emplacement de rêve.

Cons:

La déco 21 siècle minimaliste qui détonne avec l'architecture 1890... et qui déjà vieillit mal.

Plaisir Pacifique aux Pieds de la Baie
Pros:

Emplacement idéal face à la baie -
Accès direct à la plage par le sous-sol de l’hôtel -
Bénéficier du SPA le matin en toute tranquillité (peu d'autres personnes) -
Disponibilité du parking dans l'hôtel -

Cons:

Absolument rien de significatif ou de rédhibitoire mais dans un souci d'amélioration permanente, quelques détails optimisables :
Opacité insuffisante (pas entièrement à 100%) de la fenêtre de la salle de bains -
Quelques (2 ou 3) tâches jaunâtres (ou rayures ? ou décolorations ?) sur le fond de la baignoire -
Mécanique eau chaude/eau froide imparfaite (difficile d'avoir 100% d'eau froide) -

Hotel junto al mar con spa
Pros:

Localización ideal junto a la playa y spa muy cuidado y bonito.

Cons:

El hotel no tiene mucho negativo que comentar. Quizá el precio del desayuno algo elevado (35€) para lo que es.

An amazing spot on a great beach
Pros:

The location was tremendous. The food was superb. The staff were generally helpful and engaging. There was a small amount of arrogance but overall excellent.

Cons:

The shower tended to soak the entire bathroom floor.i think its a bit of a design flaw, but a very minor issue

Un verdadero palacio frente al mar
Pros:

Una experiencia espectacular de principio a fin. El hotel es majestuoso, con la elegancia y el encanto de un verdadero palacio frente al mar. Las habitaciones están nuevas, son muy cómodas y cuentan con un precioso baño y un balcón con una vista impresionante. El spa y el circuito de talasoterapia son simplemente increíbles y valen completamente la experiencia. Además, la ubicación es perfecta para recorrer Saint-Jean-de-Luz caminando. Sin duda, volveríamos.

Cons:

No tenemos nada negativo que mencionar. Todo estuvo a la altura de un hotel de esta categoría y disfrutamos muchísimo nuestra estadía.

LOVE
Pros:

The most beautiful place and people. The spa here made me feel like a princess. How lovely to go from the sauna, steam room or lap pool (with built in standing jacuzzi!?!) straight out to the sandy beach, into the ocean and back! +++++
