This lovely hotel in a charming building exceeded our expectations. Lots of charm and well appointed. Sylvie, the manager was welcoming and helpful in finding parking and offering recommendations around town. Great location near the market, beaches, and top tier shopping - while being set back a few streets so very quiet as well. Will stay here again!

Lovely family run hotel
Alcyon is a lovely, boutique family run hotel. We had a nice stay in a balcony room overlooking the street. Staff were really helpful and the breakfast is great - served in a beautiful room. Location is great - easy walking distance to the beach and lots of bars/restaurants. Highly recommended!

Hotel Alcyon
Very comfortable small hotel in central Biarritz. Very friendly and welcoming. We stayed a week and were given a room with a balcony on the top floor. Sometimes a little noisy at night, but there is double glazing, shutters and air conditioner so really not a problem.

This is situated on an apex of 3 streets in central Biarritz & is both very quiet & accessible for the beach, shops & several bus lines (the stop is Foch). There are several restaurants on Rue de Verdun. Breakfasts at the Alcyon are very good with eggs to be boiled to choice, juices & unlimited Nespresso coffee. The staff are friendly, informed, & helpful. Rooms with a balcony view are spacious, south-facing, & recommended. We cannot recommend this Hotel too highly.

Not all rooms are the same.
Room was very dark, en-suite very shabby,restrictive, measured approx 3.5 x 6. Asked for a change, got none. Room next door was spacious and nicely decorated. Hotel in a good location.a better room would have made a massive difference to this hotel's review and to our holidays.

Excellent location, very clean with friendly staff
This hotel is five minutes from the Grande Plage, a fabulous beach but not really for families as the surf is very strong! There is free parking at the bus station, about a five minute walk. The hotel is very clean and nicely kept, and the staff were very friendly. There is a lift in the hotel, but if you have limited mobility there are a number of stairs to access the lobby initially. The rooms were very quiet and relaxing, and the town with it's restaurants is just a few minutes walk away.

Great hotel stay and wonderful staff
Great hotel and wonderful staff they were so nice and helpful during our stay and went above and beyond to make our stay great. Every little detail was attended to - we even had little animal towel figures on the bed every day :-) Desk staff were great and helped to make travel plans for day trips and always with a smile - highly recommend this hotel to others. Wonderful time. Ian.

Alcyon tres bon!
Have stayed in Alcyon four times now- always excellent service and the rooms are comfortable, quiet and excellent. It's in a quiet part of town but so close to the beahc, the bars and restaurants. The staff are very attentive without being overbearing and even if your French isn't great, their English and Spanish are fine. In short- Great hotel, attarctiave inside and out, efficient staff and a wondeful place to stay in a fantastic area.

Excellent little hotel in perfect location
My husband and I stayed 1 night at the Hotel and would definitely recommend it to others. It was easy to find, only took ten mins driving from the airport, with easy street parking surrounding the hotel. The lady running the place was super lovely, and tried her best to understand our English. There are there levels of rooms, we were on the top floor. There is a handy lift for getting up if the stairs are too much. There are around four rooms per level. We opted for breakfast in the morning, which cost around 13 euro I think each, and was really nice and easy. The hotel is only a short two min walk to the centre of town or the main beach. I would highly recommend this hotel if you needed one to four nights in the town. The rooms were a decent size with its own bathroom. Both were really clean. Perfect for a couple or single traveller.
