We chose this hotel because it offered two-room suite for reasonable price. The hotel is well located, on a quiet street, 5 minute walk from the beach. Last year it was graded four-star. Modern, stylish interior. Spacious, comfortable well-decorated rooms. Reproductions of Ramiro Arrue’s paintings on the walls. The rooms were also well-furnished and contained everything we might need, even... More

Stayed in Hotel Alcyon for 3 nights this May. Lovely clean and modern hotel located about 5mins from the centre of town. The location was perfect as you could pop over and back from town very easily. The staff were always very helpful and friendly and we had no problems whatsoever. There are blackout blinds which keep the sun out... More

We needed a three day port-in-a-storm with our 11-year-old and found it at the Alcyon. All the positive comment about Cristina is justified: charming, helpful, booked us restaurants, buoyed us up despite biblical rain, a lift to the spirits. Free access to computer for our daughter to Facebook half the planet in downtime. Hotel happy to put up extra bed... More

Charming, spacious, Cristina @ reception was so helpful with directions, zrestaurant recommendations. Parking available in nearby public garage for 9 euros a day. Plentiful continental breakfast. Small but cleverly designed bathroom with lots of storage. Quiet at night. No view, but beach is a 5 minute walk away. We loved this place!!

I stayed 3 nights in April 2012 and had a very good time at the Alcyon hotel. I arrived at 9:30 am and they prepared the room so that I could use it immediately, which was very nice since I was able to finish a very short night. The owners (a couple) are eager to help (map, info on restaurants,... More

Stayed in September for a few nights. Beautifully decorated hotel, nice colour scheme. Great bookcase and lounge room area. Good location for walking to the beach and around the town. Parking building just up the road for 10euro per day, but we found easy free parking on the street just a short walk away. Tea and coffee making facilities in... More

We spent only 2 nights (wish we had longer!) in the Alcyon and were delighted by the location and room. The owners were delightful, the room was lovely and it included tea and coffee making facilities - heaven!!! The bed was one of the best we slept in while in France and we would definately recommend this small hotel and... More

We spent 3 nights in the Alcyon and enjoyed the hotel and Biarritz so much that we wished we could have stayed a few nights longer. The location is perfect - close the town centre and a short walk to the beach but on a quiet street away from the tourist crowds aong the seafront and central squares. Eric and... More
