Staff was great. Very helpful and knowledgable. Offered great recommendations. Location’s great too with lots of amazing places nearby. Room, although a bit small, it was comfortable and clean. I had a very memorable stay here. Biarritz is amazing. Can’t wait to come back and stay here again.

Hôtel de L'Océan
Very friendly staff; my only comment is that it would have been nice to check in at 1:30 PM instead of 3:30 PM since the room was available; we had just flown in from the US and jet lag was awful........
