Rooms and staff hospitality were fantastic. Had to take a Star away for the dining area. Food was good but zero ambiance. No background music or decorations on the walls, and it looked like someone set up card tables with tablecloths. Plain and uninspiring. Bar area and bartenders were top notch. Fantastic drinks!

If I had not stayed in Sofitels before I never would again after this one… I would think “oh, Sofitel. The brand that charges a 5 star price for a 2 star experience.” The condition of this property was shocking. The dead fish smell, ikea furniture, bulging, rusting, walls, broken air conditioning, leaky shower, this is why there are no photos of the interior on the listing. Look at the photos I attached and ask yourself whether you want to pay a 5 star price for that. Sofitel needs to renovate and refresh it or sell it.

When booking a 5 star SOFITEL you do expect something nice. All we can say is: the people working there where nice and location perfect BUT the maintenance and cleanliness of the place is not even worth one star. We would not stay here again and I actually hope getting a message saying my review has been deleted due to renovation. There were water leaking from a shower into the gym. The outside walls dirty dirty dirty and we had dog/human hair on the balcony. How the SOFITEL-group can be known having this low standard is surprising. This if maybe the first time ever I only post bad pictures because it is needed. I would never recommend anyone this hotel in Biarritz. Many better options!

Unfortunately, this is not anywhere close to a 5-star property, which is what it’s marketed and priced as. The property is in terrible condition, peeling paint everywhere, completely rusted exterior, moldy and worn out carpet, outdated furniture and bathrooms, mold on interior walls and near the vents. Overpriced food and amenities. The pool is nice, and the staff is very kind and helpful to try and accommodate guests (moving rooms, offering what they can), but they are completely hampered by the hotel’s poor mismanagement and the fact that Sofitel has let this property fall into disrepair. We considered leaving in the middle of the night during our short stay we were so uncomfortable with the amount of mold everywhere, and ultimately really had an unpleasant stay. I hope the hotel owners choose it either invest in modernizing and fixing this hotel, or be realistic to people booking about the experience they are going to get and the condition of the property.
