Je recommande cet hôtel dans le quartier de la Grière, à proximité de quelques restaurants et commerces, à 300 m de la plage, facilité de stationnement, dans un quartier de petites villas sous les pins. De plus, un service de bus gratuits permet de rejoindre le centre-ville si l'envie vous en prend.

Très bon séjour de 2 semaines !

J'ai été très bien accueilli et ai passé un excellent séjour. La chambre est très spacieuse, avec un coin canapé et table de salon, un bureau, un frigidaire. Je m'y suis toujours bien senti. La climatisation a permis de passer très confortablement les jours de canicule. Les patrons sont très bienvenants. Le petit-déjeuner était copieux et amplement suffisant. L'hôtel se trouve à 300 m environ de la plage. En 10 minutes on est à la plage. A vélo en même pas 2 minutes. Je précise que je n'ai aucun lien de parenté avec qui que ce soit de l'hôtel. Je connais l'Hotel de la Mer depuis plus de 40 ans. 😊 A recommander.
