It was fun to stay in a castle. The breakfast was nice but not sure it was worth 13 euro. Should have booked a room downstairs as there is no elevator. However, the staff carried up and down our suitcases. Best bed ever!

Wonderful chateau

We had a wonderful stay at the chateau. Great reception and well appointed room with terrace. Had a swim in the heated pool with views of the Pyrenees. A short drive into Biarritz. Would return.

Very beautiful Chateau hotel, lots of antique furnishings and decor, set in lovely gardens and a very attractive modern swimming pool with comfortable loungers and friendly bar with views over the Pyrenees, wild flowers, and fields of horses. The chateau is out of town by the airport, which is very convenient at the start or end of a holiday. There is very little noise from the planes but you can hear the traffic nearby, although not see it as the grounds are lovely. It is about 20 minutes drive (or taxi) to the beaches. The chateau serves light food by the pool (salads, burgers etc) in the daytime and on Monday night there was a great BBQ by the pool. There is a smart restaurant next door - which we sadly couldn't try because we foolishly didn't realise it was a public holiday (Bastille day). There are no other restaurants nearby but normally it isn't a problem to get a taxi in.

Absolutely loved it!

Was such a beautiful Chateau. The staff were lovely, it was peaceful and relaxing, we had a fabulous time. Only thing I would say is there wasn’t a fan or aircon in our room, and it was a hot night. Also the shower isn’t fully enclosed so water gets on the floor a bit. Overall we were very happy and would definately stay again

A memorable chateau stay!

We loved the Chateau du Claire de Lune. The grounds and the Chateau exterior are beautiful. We stayed in the hunting lodge - in a clean, modern, light and spacious room - with a large private balcony overlooking the garden. Inside the main building the lounge and games room were our disposal, both lovely rooms. The breakfasts were served in the dining room and, we felt were good value. All three public species felt special. We were warmly greeted at reception and nothing was too much trouble. All needs were responded to willingly, promptly and in a friendly manner. The pool area would be a great extra for those that stay during warm periods.

Well, this is not my first time in this delightful place and I may asure you, it hasn‘t been the last! This utterly beautyful Chateau with its charme and gorgeous view over the Pyrenee-Mountains will always be my favourite in Biarritz. There might be more luxurious hotels, but none so hospitable and original!

Character Hotel Convient to Biarritz

Nice hotel with plenty of character in the country but not that far from Biarritz. It was very period so don’t be expecting rooms to be modern. I was a little disappointed that the pool was closed given the hotel uses this as it cover shot. Overall pleasant stay.
