Le Talaia Hôtel & Spa Biarritz - MGallery Collection

10/10 Excellent
"Really lovely hotel in a convenient location. A bit disappointing that fabulous rooftop pool doesnt have an adjacent bar. Rooftop restaurant looked great, but unfortunately the evening we wanted to eat in it there was no availability. In fairness to the hotel, they do recommend booking, but we assumed they'd always be able to find space for a hotel resident. Lovely bedroom, everything you could ever wish for."

"Good location. Reception is top floor which wasn’t terribly convenient. Have to pre book parking. I tried but got no response and ended up parked on the street 500m away. Weird spacecraft-style door to the equally strange bathroom and door wouldn’t close properly. Air con didn’t work but they brought us a fan. Can’t get to a bathroom on arrival without key access to a ‘public’ area so if you’ve travelled far stop at services or use airport bathrooms! Bed quite comfy. Breakfast good. Nice views. Nice area to relax and look out from 9th floor at the city. On reflection our overall 4 stars is generous."

"This was a lovely little hotel. The room was clean and comfortable and we had a lovely view from the balcony of our room. Breakfast was good. The hotel doesn't do evening meals but it was only a short walk into Ascain where there were plenty of bars and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay, would recommend and would return again when in the area"

"They really need to look at their cleaning training and general customer expectations. Our closest was filthy, one towel each for a week, half a toilet roll, stains on sheets. However, staff were receptive to our complaints. Breakfast was excellent, pool was great, location was great too."
