Reviews for Hôtel Le Café de Paris
Review 1:The room was small (considering the value), bathroom was basic but functional. All together, the room was overpriced. The view was there but diminished by outside racks.
Review 2:The location is incredible. Breakfast was nice. Staff was welcoming and answered to our needs in a timely manner.
Review 3:On settling our bill we discovered that the hotel had charged 394 Euros for the final night which was a Sunday all other nights during our 7 night stay were between 200 and 210 euros. When asked for an explanation we were told that this is because we had booked through booking.com and if we had booked direct the charge for the last night would have been 210 euros. Despite many emails to Booking.com we have not been given a satisfactory explanation by either them or the hotel and feel that a nice stay has been tarnished. We will not be going back as we consider that we have not been given the best price which was guaranteed by booking.com
Review 4:Sea view and central location
Review 5:Can't think of anything
Review 6:Great location. Wonderful room with great bit of basque artwork, a spacious bathroom and a sun terrace with beach view. Good restaurant and welcoming bar
Review 7:Bar staff very slow. After waiting for 10 mins for service I asked at bar but was told 'wait and my colleague will be over' - he never arrived. After waiting 5+ mins the following evening we simply went to the bar next door. No shortage of bar staff just very slow and inefficient!!
Review 8:Room was excellent. Great view and spotless clean.
Review 9:Parking arrangement, this level of hotel should have at least Valet Parking
Review 10:Location was good, sea view fantastic. Staff friendliness good, and a Excellent Breakfast !!
Review 11:Can't think of a thing!!!
Review 12:Staff was outstanding!! Was upgraded to a terrace room and made our stay so much more enjoyable as we were able to view the Bastille Fireworks from our deck!! What a nice surprise!!! The whole experience in Biarritz was stellar!!
Review 13:the staff were moderately friendly. Also for a prestige suite the rooms were a bit plain and small but it is a 4 star (don't expect 5-star luxury)
Review 14:Great location for shopping and eating! We had a Prestige suite that had a gorgeous balcony. Great bathroom.
Review 15:The staff went out of their way to accomodate my 4 friends and I at the end of a cycle trip from St Malo which finished in Biarritz. Our stay was fantastic and the location was perfect. Highly recommended
Review 16:Couldn't fault anything.
Review 17:The hotel was perfectly situated with views to the sea. We left our window open during the night and could hear the waves! It was perfectly situated for easy access to local restaurants. Biarritz was everyhting we hoped it would be
Review 18:The sofa bed not comfortable. on the internet it looks closer to the ocean. however, I really enjoyed my stay and will come again. Breakfast is expensive, but I did not try.
Review 19:Very helpful and wellington reception staff, welcoming house keeping as well. the shampoo and lotions provided are nice. comfortable bed. Nice shower.
Review 20:The only thing I would improve would be to provide different types of pillows. All of ours were very lifted and overstuffed. Fine for me but not my wife
Review 21:The staff was very professional and helpful with recommendations for local restaurants and attractions.
Review 22:The WiFi wouldn't allow my laptop to join. iPad OK. Laptop fine at all hotels before & after. The staff couldn't fix it. The doorless shower was a nuisance and the whole art nouveau type bathroom unsatisfactory.
Review 23:Staff were really great, friendly and very helpful.
Review 24:Our room was very well equipped with an amazing view of the ocean. The hotel is in a beautiful location, with tempting boutiques on the doorstep, and every member of staff that we talked to was extremely helpful and customer-focused.
Review 25:The hotel is worn and the public places like the elevator and stairs are not clean. The lobby is small and does not encourage social interaction with other guests. Also, the location is away from the more fun areas of St. Germain.
Review 26:The staff was friendly and helpful and it was close to Metro and RER for transportation. Compared to where we normally stay (was not available) it was considerbly cheaper.
Review 27:Breakfast price seemed a little too expensive. We decided to eat out for Le petite dejeuner where prices were more moderate.
Review 28:The view was outstanding and the location perfect; everything you need within walking distance. Staff were happy to help and recommend when asked.
Review 29:We were told the hotel had parking facilities which we learned the day before was actually a public parking. To reach the hotel it was necessary to negotiate the exit staircase of the parking which was not easy carrying heavy suitcases.
Review 30:It was a good size room with a mezzanine level for our son. The location was good, near the beaches. THe staff were very helpful.
Review 31:No fresh milk for tea making facility. Plastic teaspoons, why not have proper metal spoons? No hooks on bathroom door. No surface to place a wash bag in shower room. No mirror in bedroom
Review 32:Excellent location and views Very good breakfast Very helpful concierge, nothing was too much trouble Good sized room Bathrobes and slippers Plenty of good sized towels
Review 33:No gym, even a small area with a few basics would be most welcome.
Review 34:Without a doubt the location......once you find it! Outstanding view andproximity to all that is needed...surfing beach, restaurants, shops etc.Bus to train station within easy walking distance. Staff very helpful.Only ate breakfast at the hotel one morning because very pricy at 20euro each. But that said it was also the very best hotel breakfast Ihave ever eaten.
Review 35:Excellent staff! Especially Julien, who went above and beyond to help me and my mother have a great experience! The room was perfect, the balcony is a terrace itself, loved their bar, very cosy, and the dining experience was wonderful; great food and excellent wine choices! The location is just perfect!
Review 36:It is a bit of a pain having to park in the underground car park and having to haul luggage up the stairs although the staff are keen to help if you ask them to.
Review 37:Spacious room looking out to sea - excellent restaurant - pleasant staff.
Review 38:Nothing
Review 39:Love everything. Big beautiful room & decor, comfy bed, quiet, amazing view of the ocean. Great location to the beach, shops, restuarants & the casino. There are fabulous fish & seafood restuarants on the waterfront about 10 min walk. Such fresh tasty produce. Its a bit expense and upmarket, but we just loved Biaritz & cant wait to go back.

Review 87:No gym, pool or parking. Poor breakfast and Wifi.
Review 88:Location.
Review 89:A little bit of a climb to get from the parking to the hotel.
Review 90:Fabulous view of the sea. Very modern, clean & comfortable room. Close to many bars & restaurants. Public parking not too far away.
Review 91:The staff were friendly and great customer service. Made the weekend effortless. They found places for us to eat and gave plenty local information. Was very impressed.
Review 92:The air conditioning did not work and although we reported this it was not fixed during our stay which was 5 nights duration There was no walk in shower which was requested and as I am slightly disabled I had great difficulty climbing in and out of the bath in a rather small bathroom. I was completely incredulous that in a hotel of this standard and price bracket there should be no mirror in the room. As a result it was extremely difficult to dress We were told that there was only 1 mirror shared between 19 rooms which was only given to those who requested it. this is ridiculous for a 4 star establishment.
Review 93:The position in terms of location was excellent. The restaurant was excellent, both the food and the service. The view from the room of the sea was excellent.
Review 94:No TV but it was not the hotel's fault as the satellite had changed. The lighting in the shower room was very unflattering, too bright, wrong angle.
Review 95:Staff all friendly, polite and helpful. breakfast: copious and wide selection. The view of the sea, unimpeded. Room was large, clean , room to relax
Review 96:We had a restaurant recommendation from front office which turned out to be shut on the evening we received it which was a little annoying as it was pouring from the heavens!!!
Review 97:Pretty much everything though we did not eat at the hotel apart from a coffee and croissant in the morning so i would have to limit our comments in that regard - i think the location is probably what made the strongest impression with its panoramic view of the beach and promenade.
Review 98:arrival facilities. the hotel is in a pedestrianized square and there is no where to unload your luggage. You either have to transport it from the underground public car park or double park on a main road lock the car and walk a 100 meters leave your luggage and then go back around the towns one way system to park. No offer of help or portage. spoiled an otherwise perfect stay
Review 99:location, room, view
Review 100:breakfast too expensive, difficult access to nearby underground car park from where luggage has to be carried to hotel,
Review 101:excellent view (had room with "vue mer"), location, general facilities
Review 102:Very minor - but more hooks in the bathroom would help.
Review 103:Luxurious accomodation with superb sea view and close proximity to the centre. Also the restaurant had a first rate cuisine and wine list.
Review 104:The room was far too small and for the size over priced. We plan to return to Biarritz next season for one week and would of considered Le Cafe Paris if not for the small room. However we will be staying at another location .
Review 105:My wife and I and our 13 year old son stayed one night on 3/9/13. The location was great, the staff were more than helpful and very friendly.
Review 106:Absolutely loved the location and the terrace was a bonus. The staff were friendly and were happy to accomodate our needs and spoke english. We would stay there again and I will advise my travel agent what a wonderful hotel Cafe is.
Review 107:Paid for a triple room but by the time the sofa bed was opened out there was very little room to move around. The sofa bed was accessed through a hand rail or from the bottom of the bed. There was less than a foot width on either side of the main bed. Again the bathroom was tiny, just large enough for one person to use at a time.
Review 108:Location, sea view.
Review 109:The reception staff did try and help but due to me not speaking frenchand their lack of english we struggled a bit. I thought I had a roomwith a split floor and an external balcony but I only had a triple roomthis was dissapointing at a cost of £500 for two nights. The lack ofcoffee/milk in the room was poor and the seperate toilet is a badidea there was no iron in the room. The additional sofa bed in thetriple room was poor and I believe when in use made the space toocramped. I have stayed at the radision in Biarritz and they offer ahigher standard but your location is better.
Review 110:The location is good, and hotel is modern and clean. We did not dine inthe hotel so we probably missed out on what the hotel can really offerin the way of good food.
Review 111:From the advert, I was expecting spa/sauna, etc... Once you arethere, just an agreement exists with an other hotel for these facilities: nothing available in the hotel.
Review 112:Central location in Biarritz, close to the beach. Absolutely very goodsound insulation : no noise originating from the hotel or outside.
Review 113:expensive, did not replenish soap and toiletries. No facilities eg gym, only 3 english TV channels. Fo a hoyel costing e180 per night in a provincial town off season it was poor value.
Review 114:good location and nice views of sea. comfortable bed
Review 115:Quality of Restaurant is rather poor, compared with other-ones in Biarritz. Too expensive for the quality offered.
Review 116:Fantastic location down-town Biarritz, splendid view on the ocean. There are rooms on the 3rd floor with big balconies. We were on the 4th floor, with at least a good view and big windows. Public parking at one- minute walking distance
Review 117:The bar has two colour tv screens blaring music out some kind of MTV style affair, at all times of morning and night. There is no cosiness or incentive to have an pre dinner drink there. The restaurant is over priced.
Review 118:The location is superb, the rooms are always lovely and decor aside the view of the sea is breathtaking and available from every room. The service is excellent and the staff are friendly.
Review 119:We were told the internal restaurant was closed and there was athunderstorm, through which we had to walk to find a restaurant! Thenwhen we came back, drenched, there were a few people eating in therestaurant!
Review 120:Positioned right by the sea in Biarritz. Friendly staff. Very clean.Recommended.
Review 121:Wonderful! Our room had the most amazing view of the ocean, it was comfortible, roomy and perfectly appointed. The best part of our stay was the excellent help of Anastatia. She is perfect for the job and a great hostess to Biarritz.
Review 122:N/a
Review 123:We found the hotel to be very clean and the sea view was fabulous aspromised. Very comfy bed and well appointed room, just what we hadhoped for.
Review 124:Tv in lounge didn't work no selection of pillows as the ones in the roomwhere too large powdered milk for tea?!
Review 125:The extra lounge area in the bedroom that they gave me milk from the barwhen I asked for it at no charge
Review 126:Fantastic location in the middle of town, but also with great sea views. Rooms were well designed and comfortable. Good breakfast and an overall relaxed feel to the hotel.
