Altogether a very nice hotel, in a very convenient position. If arriving by car, it can be a little tricky to navigate to somewhere close enough to the hotel to unload your luggage, however, the location of the hotel is excellent for exploring Biarritz

Biarritz is a goood place to stay.
The staff were incredibly helpful, generous and thoughtful, they made our stay a positive experience. The hotel is in a great location for a brief stay in Biarritz. Our rooom was at the front of the hotel and we stayed at the hotel over a public holiday weekend so it was a little noisy in the evenings. We both found the bed was a little too soft. But the staff really made our stay enjoyable.

Very helpful staff. We had a problem with our luggage being broken so the manager took it upon himself to drive to the local airport in order to speak directly to someone that could help us resolve the issue. Everyone has been very friendly making us feel at home. They hosted a “happy hour” with free tapas and drinks. Great location along the beach.

the smallest room in town
Our second visit to this hotel. The location is brilliant, the staff friendly and helpful. Our first visit in July was super, so we decided to come back in September - a disappointment! The room we were given this time was so small that one of us had to go into the bathroom when the other wanted access to the wardrobe! Open the door and jump into bed was the motto! Surely not acceptable for a 4star hotel and for guests which are staying for 8 days

I would stay here again for sure. Would recommend calling ahead to find a parking area close by if you are driving. Nice lobby bar to chill and chat to the staff, who were all very friendly.

I had a lovely stay. The folks at reception were particularly friendly and chatty. Its a charming hotel in a good location. As with other, smaller European hotels, it did not provide a coffee maker in the room which is always a bit of a disappointment.

Ideal spot for a mini break
The hotel is in an excellent place by the sea and within short walking distance of the old town. The staff are polite, and speak excellent English; happy to help with recommendations and small tasks (calling cabs, etc). Beds are comfortable, showers are powerful, clean and roomy. A great place at a great price.

Dear guest, thank you very much for your comments. We have enjoyed your stay with us and we are very happy. The size of our rooms is in accordance with the size of all rooms in an old city center. Comfortable but not spacious. The sloping ceiling, in some of our rooms, is one of the features our guests enjoy the most, because it makes the rooms very cozy. We hope to see you again on your next visit in Biarritz.

It's entirely understandable why so many comments on Hotel Georges VI remain in the excellent and superb. We had a splendid time there and Biarrritz is an enchanting city.with a vibrant street and beach life. The Atlantic rollers coming into the harbour are unparalleled for any surfer and despite the season we will be returning. The hotel was very helpful in recommending lovely places to dine with each one being unique and with excellent service. Rod Hunt: Minnesota, USA

Good time in Biarritz
Great location in a very lively part of town with great eating and shops nearby. Room was wonderfully quiet being at the back. Nicely decorated and very clean. Evening staff made us very welcome. Did not have breakfast as we thought it expensive. However regretted decision as breakfast was almost as expensive in most cafes.

Suggested a taxi and said quicker than the bus and 20E. We found the bus ,10 mins away 1E each and 20 mins. Cost not the issue just lack of correct info.
