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

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.

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.
rooms : not the most modern one BUT you have all needed inside even a dishwasher. Terrasse is nice also depends where you have the view and the season of the year you re going there choose sea view (side street) or casino side or town side.
For couple with 2 kids it just PERFECT size and Location just 50m from central Arcachon beach and you have supermarket also very near walking 100m even if you arrive by train is near and easy.
Lovely bright, modern room and a reasonable size for one (or two) bathroom had a full bath and clean and tidy. Good quiet location about a 10 minute walk from the train station and also down to the sea and piers. the staff were lovely and you can leave your bags in reception before check in and when you check out. Absolutely loved Arcachon and the lovely architecture, shops bars and restuarants
Breakfast not applicable, location superb for the beach, shops and market square only 8 minute walk away. Free parking a bit difficult to find in high season, but there is a private space where bikes can be stored under cover and several local bike hire shops nearby.
Property nice and clean, and well placed not to get over hot in summer.
What is there not to like about Arcachon ?
I stayed here one time before in 2019. I knew when I went back to Arcachon I wanted to stay in the same location. They have a laundry room, and the rooms are a good size and comfortable. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely a place we look forward to stay at. It’s close the the gare and the ocean, also just outside the market.
the best location- very spacious and comfortable apartment, very bright, many bathrooms, comfortable sitting couches to accommodate more than 4 people, well lit, well equipped kitchen , enough table ware for more than 4 people- and free secure parking- very quiet neighbourhood.
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.
Bright, clean room. A balcony too, always a bonus. The shower was brilliant with all the extra attachments. Loved the breakfast in the room at our leisure without all the faffing about that usually comes at breakfast. Good car parking right at hotel.
The place is bit outdated. But the rooms and the decorations were very nice.
Breakfast was very good. Nice and helpful employees.
Location right in the center at the beach.
Parking spaces are under the hotel.
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.
Excellent hotel, a half hour walk to the town centre but only 10 minutes from the restaurants at Aiguillon, the fishing port end of town. Out of season it was quiet, with free on-street parking available.
Fabulous hotel. Beautiful rustic style that you only get in France. Rooms lovely. Staff very friendly and helpful. Arcachon in general a stunning place to visit. Would definitely recommend.
The hotel is very conveniently located, close to the railway station and the beach, polite staff, beautiful, clean, spacious room, delicious breakfast, variety of food, very stylish terrace
Situated quite centrally in arcachon but still quiet area, large inside and good equipped, large bathroom and kitchen. Convenient for parking just outside.
