The location of this hotel is excellent, just a block from the beach and close to the main shopping area and the casino. There is no bar or restaurant in the hotel but these are available close by. I would not however recommend this hotel to anyone large in stature - as the bathroom is incredibly small and it would... more

My wife and I stayed at the Alcyon for 3 nights in this lovely city. It's a good hotel with an average size room for Europe. No A/C. On a quiet side street, about ten minute walk to the town center & the excellent beaches. Parking in public lot nearby is 15 euros per day. If you need services from... more

The hotel is close to the center of the town and to the beaches. A bit expensive, it turned to be rather comfortable which we appreciated. Windows opened, the streets turned to be noisy during the night. more

I stayed in a superior room with my wife and 5 year old daughter - not sure about the other reviews regarding the size of the bathroom as we found it to be an excellent size and certainly no issues with the towels being too thin!! The only negative was the fact there was no air con but Eric (the... more

Excellent quiet hotel in a busy city. Room was good and en suite excellent with a great shower! Breakfast was a real surprise - a lovely selection of fresh fruit, fresh orange juice, yoghurts, meat, cheese, cakes, bread, etc,etc. Very well placed for the main beach and restaurants. Try the Collonades opposite the Casino for a quiet drink while 'people-watching'!!... more

It is conveniently located close to the centre of Biarritz. The staff were friendly and helpful, even ringing ahead to golf clubs to check they were... more

WOW! Great Location- 15 min. from airport and 2 min. walk to the beach. Parking can be a challenge! Clean and... more

We stayed here for 4 nights and were completely satisfied with this Hotel. We stayed in a Superior Room (Room 1 on the first floor,) and we enjoyed a comfortable Queen size bed and a well equipped modern bathroom with shower. The fully tiled bathroom was small but adequate, was very clean, with lots of storage space and a towel... more

This hotel is in a great location and only a couple of minutes walk to the beach and all the restaurants and bars. It is very clean and well maintained. Good value for money. The rooms are small but adequate and the bathroom was ok. Our shower was broken (swung from side to side and you had to follow it!!)... more
