Booked the hotel despite reading some negative reviews as the price was one of the more affordable within Arcachon. We were pleasantly surprised and to be honest the room was well decorated, spacious and quite modern. What I was disappointed with the most was the absence of drink making facilities within the room, certainly my first experience of that. We... More

The prime sea front location is fantastic! The receptionist mistaken our booking and we got a seaview room with balcony and great views on the ocean for the price of a standard room!!!! The room seemed to be recently renovated.....the bathroom was not!!! Very nice breakfast room with good choice of food, but if you want a good coffee you... More

In front of the beach, nice cosy hotel. It seems they have recently renovated the rooms. I was worried by a review that talks about the bathrooms. Ours was neat, clean, very good. Staff was polite and very nice with our kids (3 very energetic boys). Not that good giving addresses nor directions. Prices for soft drinks were not "hotel... More

After two weeks travel in France, before oin to our home in the Provence, we stopped in Cape D'Agde, without making any hotel rservations. After checking out several hotels in Cape D'Agde, we decided that this place was well below our expectations. While we have no objection for naturalism, we decided that on our age of 67 one should expose... More

Fortunate to have lovely room with patio setting overlooking the bay. No fridge in room so asked receptionist for some ice which caused problems but were given an ice bucket with ice, we paid 2.50 Euros cash but it was also charged to our room. Second night asked for ice & after quite a fuss in front of other guests... More

Stayed here en route from UK to our house in Spain. The only recommendation I can find is that the Hotel is at the centre of town, near the beach and has a car park. We paid £120.00 for the night including a buffet breakfast and we departed dissapointed. I am well aware that it was our choice to stay... More

Hasn't been renovated in 50 years, the staff were attentive but strange. 100e for double room and we would have felt more comfortable on the beach. Left luggage is the telephone booth.

The hotel is at the centre of Arcachon where all the action and noise is and near the town beach which make it a nice location but it is what you pay for just the location. Our room (not on the sea front) was small and we could hear people next door or above doing their business in the bathroom.... More

Nice location near the beach, though see-view rooms are more expensive and mine was not. Internet access available only in lobby. There's a printer there too, which is nice. Old-style wooden floors and furnishing may look nice, but the floors creak and you can hear from your room every step another guest takes anywhere else in the hotel. Windows are... More
