Angresse Holidays from £291

Wonderful property in a quiet neighborhood that’s a ten-minute walk down the hill to the beach.

This was a great place to stay while in Biarritz because the room was clean, the hotel was stylish and quiet and the staff was welcoming and friendly.

We stayed three days and it was fine. The furnishings were basic. The property is very poorly equipped in that you need to provide your own washing up liquid, sponge, drying up towel, dishwasher tablets, loo cleaner, hand soap etc. . There is nothing to eat or drink provided by the owners - no welcome pack… first stop the supermarket. Bedding and towels are the minimum too and if I was going again, I would take my own towels. You have to pay a 500 euro deposit and clean up and remove the dirty linens when you check out. Car park is super tight, spaces are ok size but there is little space to manoeuvre. The people on the reception and by email were delightful, there is a nice swimming pool and grounds to walk around. The area is surrounded by campsites and there are a couple of casual restaurants within a short walk. Convenient for the coast path and a nice walk into the town - 30 mins plus each way.

The first room #16 was totally unacceptable with damp and mold settling around the vent. Not at all what we were expecting. After complaining we were upgraded to the largest room in the hotel which is what we thought we would get in the first place. The best part of the experience was meeting the chef, Olivier Lataste who created sumptuous meals for us.
