An enjoyable stay at this lovely independent hotel.( I think it is part of a small group of hotels, but St Julien is not like a chain hotel.
The bedroom was lovely and spacious with a very comfortable king size bed. The en-suite shower was walk in ( very easy for oldies like us) and with modern fixtures and fittings.
Breakfast which can be served in the dining room or in the garden was a plentiful continental offering- lots of choice and all delicious.
All the staff we encountered were efficient and friendly.
Hotel is situated a short walk from Les Halles and
approximately 20 minutes walk to the seafront.
We so enjoyed our stay that we booked for an extra night.

A really comfortable stay in a compact but well appointed and clean room. Staff were very friendly and helpful and location was great being only a short walk into town and to the lovely beach.
Very central hotel in Biarritz, near restaurants, stores and the beach. It has a private car park. The price for Biarritz is great. One little thing to improve would be to add a fan in the bathroom as there is no window in the bathroom. Overall, good hotel.
Atrocious dinner service; I asked twice for water, but it was never brought. I had to ask a third time. We ate all of our starters without any of our ordered drinks (wine or water) delivered.
Awful breakfast service on the first morning. In a busy environment, the logical layout of where plates and cutlery are kept (also a large distance apart) is completely nonsensical and the staff were very slow to replenish breakfast supplies during peak breakfast time.
At 9.05 am, a cleaner knocked on the door! Ludicrously early. We shouted to ask them to leave.
At 2.52 pm, a male staff member unlocked the door and promptly walked into the room without invitation while my partner was in bed, unclothed. This was grossly unacceptable. On that basis, you absolutely must not stay at this hotel. There is a serious safety issue here.
This hotel is the ”Fawlty Towers” of Biarritz, except nobody is laughing.
