Very nice hotel, good location with parking on site, just far enough outside town centre to be quiet, but close enough for an easy walk. Rooms very big, very clean, with big comfortable bed, bathroom spotless and well set out. Breakfast nice with alot of choice. Staff very friendly and very helpful only thing missing for us was a bar, somewhere to have a drink, only availability was a small area near reception with self service small selection of drinks and roof terrace which was nice but had a continuous whining fan and bar that was closed, (only open at the weekend as we were told) other than that we would recommend this hotel and would return

The hotel very presentable, maybe 10 - 15 minutes from the center (walking), not very close to the beach. Easy to park the car there. The staff is very nice, I think is the best think about the hotel. Very attentive and kind.

Sea, Oysters and Europe’s Tallest Sand Dune
Arcachon is a French resort on the Atlantic coast, about 55 km from the city of Bordeaux. Known for its oyster farms, Dune of Pyla, the long sandy beaches and the Victorian houses, this seaside city is a perfect holiday destination.
Set among the ocean and a pine forest, the breathtaking Great Dune of Pyla is the tallest sand dune in Europe. Reaching a height of about 107 metres and a length of 3 km, this natural miracle is a massive hill ideal for paragliding.
Popular for its oyster production, Arcachon was home to one of the first farms opened in 1849. Today about 60% of the oysters in France come from this region. Visit a waterside restaurant and savour delicious oyster dishes accompanied by a glass of fine French wine.
The Landes forest is the biggest maritime pine forest in Europe, filled with a wonderful natural park with cycle paths. Booking.com will help you find the right hotel, apartment or holiday home in the area of Arcachon.

Arcachon is a rather unique bay, very worth visiting.
Arcachon is a rather unique bay, very worth visiting. It has great nature and wildlife (birds), in addition to interesting early 20th century architecture. The area is quaint and good humored with lots of families staying and visiting the area. Access can be congested during rush hour and on top vacation days! The food is outstanding, both in restaurants (we recommend Le Saint Ferdinand! Great seafood!) and at local food stores and bakeries!
Climbing the Dune du Pilat is a must with phenomenal 360 degr. views!
The boardwalk in Arcachon proper along the bay is gorgeous!

Lovely town with lots of restaurants, beaches , etc. Also worth visiting dunes and Cap Ferret (rent a bike at Cap). Also can easily walk around town. We had a nice meal at Cafe Repetto , great service, value, and fantastic desserts.

Attractive location and a good place to stay.
Attractive location and a good place to stay. We wanted to visit Bordeaux but didn’t want to stay in the city. Arcachon has a good regular service by train into the city and this suited us well.
You need to know that boat trips around the bay have to be booked in advance and will cancel your booking if there are too few passengers. We didn’t manage to get a successful booking.
Arcachon is a seafood paradise for those wanting oysters, crustaceans and fish. It’s also more expensive, we assumed because it’s a tourist haven.

The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful.
The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. We had booked dinner in a nearby hotel for a dinner and the staff organised a taxi for us to travel there. Otherwise, everything you needed is in a pleasant walking distance. I can't wait to return to Arachon

Arcachon is a clean and welcoming place with plenty to do and lots of lovely places to eat. There are many options for boat trips in the Bassin d’ Arcachon, which are well worth doing. There is an excellent, cheap bus service to access places further than walking distance and the station has regular trains.
I travelled alone with 2 cats and took a family room so we would have enough space. The room was larger than expected, which was nice, with a lovely (and rather grand) terrace (the cats liked it). The hotel is not new but the room was very clean The staff (at the reception & breakfast, as well as the cleaning lady) were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good (I liked the vegetable milk and detox water as alternatives). Hotel close to the port and beach in rather green surroundings, loved that too. Would surely recommend it!
A beautiful, freshly renovated hotel that was perfect for our one-night stay in the Arcachon area. They were able to accommodate a change of date at very short notice and the team were very welcoming and friendly. It was out of the main summer season and unfortunately raining but despite that, it was a lovely location and the decor inside the rooms and the reception areas was very tastefully done. The breakfast was delicious, with lots of local products and choice.
The apartment was very nice and cosy, and had everything we needed, and apart from the dining chairs it was very comfortable. We didn't use the outdoor space to sit, because of the very hungry mosquitos. There was a mosquito-spray available at the apartment, which was a welcome surprise.
TIP: if you don't travel with a car: rent a bike for a few days, because walking to the shops and beach can be tiring when you do it too often.
Great hotel situated in the centre of Arcachon and close to the beach and old town. The room was a good size, very nicely decorated with very comfortable bed and outside balcony. All the staff were very welcoming and gave us great advice on restaurants and how best to explore Arcachon. There was also a secure car park available for guests a few yards from the hotel which could be accessed directly via lift/stairway.
Hot summer nights offset by airco - yippee! Internet connectivity was extremely poor quality and that’s a no-no. Location was great! Breakfast was poor quality in a dining area that was shabby. Rooms are extremely small. An Airbnb would have been nicer and cheaper but probably no airco - so for extreme heat, head to the Roc hotel & get some sleep at nights
The location is excellent, right on the beach and boardwalk but far enough away from the center of town to remain quiet. This is a nice 3 star hotel, clean, spacious rooms and nice balcony. Free parking. Good value. It is not pretending to be anything else. I would stay again. Didn't get a chance to use the pool, but it looked well kept after.
A lovely hotel overlooking a part of Arcachon beach that is not too crowded. The swimming pool that overlooks the beach was very welcome in the heatwave we experienced. Very good breakfast provided in the dining room. The hotel was very well located for the short walk into the town. Lots of lovely restaurants nearby. Parking provided.
Lovely view out over the bay and the boardwalk. Breakfast on the balcony was delightful. The breakfast in-room service is brilliant, even a bit overwhelming. Location of the hotel can't be beat, right in the heart of the dining part of the boardwalk, overlooking the ferry pier.
Spacious appartment, very well equipped kitchen, large, comfortable beds in both rooms, nice outdoor space, clean, pleasant reception by the manager. Restaurants and shops very nearby. Ideal for those who don't need to be right in the centre of Arcachon.
Exceptional location, on the seaside and right in the center. Very comfortable hotel with a space outside in the shade and a nice air conditioned living room to wait for your room to be ready. Very nice staff.
Great apartment with lots of space, everything we needed, a friendly greeting, even bonus toys for the kids. Even a room for bikes on ground floor. Very, very close to center square with delicious restaurants.
The staff are amazing and so welcoming. The hotel itself is really well presented, clean and comfortable. A ten minute walk in to town along the beach front. Car parking over the road. Lovely breakfast.
We had a comfortable stay at your hotel! The staff was friendly, the room was spotless, and we had a prking place. Thank you to your team for making my experience memorable. Looking forward to returning!
it was new, beautifully designed and decorated. quite area, pleasant staff and I felt in a safe environment as an woman travelling alone and getting stranded in Arcachon due to a transportation strike.
