Very pleasant little hotel
This is a very nice little hotel (hence the name!) in a wonderful location. Although you can't see the sea from your window, when you go out a lovely view is right around the corner. No lift, so be prepared to climb stairs. We had a room on the top floor, and certainly got our exercise. The bathroom is very small, and shower door would not open all the way because the sink was in the way, so it's really only for "leaner" people, in our room anyway. There was really only one free plug for charging the phones, but it worked. Breakfast was coffee, croissants, yogurt, fruit, very adequate. The hotel is in a hilly area, so be prepared to walk up and down to it. All in all, it was a very nice stay with a friendly owner, and the beauty of Biarritz can't be beat.

Small hotel small price great location
Great location great price don't expect the Ritz but do expect a friendly helpful reception. Parking in Biarritz a nightmare so follow Jerome's suggestion and park in the Casino car park, use the fifth level and you come out 50m from the hotel door.

Ideally placed, friendly hotel. Good value
The Petit Hotel is what its name suggests. It is a short stroll from the beach, restaurants and, if you have more money than sense, the casino. Jerome is very friendly and knowledgeable. The room we had was small and the double bed a little less than queen-sized. For guests arriving by car, it's worth knowing that the nearest car park is the Casino parking which is very near. We'd happily stay here again.

Nice quiet hotel close to the beach
We arrived late and the receptionist was waiting for us with maps directions and all we needed for our short stay there. In the morning again attentive with breakfast. We look for safe, quiet, location, cleanness. It met all of the above

Tiny but very central hotel
Photos enlarge what is essentially a tiny space. Breakfast made to sound delightful "Fresh croissants, fruit juice, coffee etc" But in reality, fairly mediocre, and served to save guests taking portions to suit their appetites! Jerome friendly, but unless I had to, I would not choose Le Petit Hotel again.

superb location
. The weather was awful and being winter there was no entertainment in cafes / pubs although I think this changes during the summer. Many of the staff in pubs /cafe's spoke English also taxi drivers and railway staff and were very helpful Did a train trip to San Sebastion ( Spain ) 2 trains each way and about 1 hour each way 20 Euros return.You need to be fairly fit as Biarritz is very hilly.Steep slopes coming away from Beach.Biarritz is quite expensive to eat and drink out as there are no fast food ( Mcdonalds/ KFC etc ) also no Indian and Chinese restrants in the area I was in. Also no English breakfasts are available in the area I stayed in. Biarritz is very French and very fifties.The hotel I stayed in Le Petit is owned by a French guy ( Jerome ) who speaks good English and is very helpful.The sea front is stretches about 2.5 miles and consists of 2 beaches with rocky headlands between the beaches the walk is nice and reminds you of Cornwall.

Central, friendly, cheap
Le Petit Hotel is extremely good value for money, especially given how central its location is: centre of town and less than a minute's walk from the beach! The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast, whilst simple, was just fine.

Ausgezeichnetes Stadtort und gemütliches Hotel
Das Hotelpersonal war sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und höflich. Das Zimmer war ein bischen klein, aber komfortabel und in gutem Zustand. Die Lage war perfekt - ca. 50m zum Strand! Außer dem, in der Nähe vom Hotel gibt's alles was man braucht, Restaurants, viele Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, sogar ein Surf Schule und Board verleih direkt neben dem Hotel.

Impossible de dormir
Nous avons passé une nuit blanche car l'hôtel est situé non loin d'une place où les jeunes de Biarritz se retrouvent pour fêter jusqu'au bout de la nuit. Les fenêtres n'étant pas insonorisées, nous n'avons pas fermé l'oeil de la nuit. L’accueil néanmoins est sympathique.

Un Grand Petit Hôtel
Ce petit hôtel a tout d'un grand dans de nombreux registres : d'abord une localisation idéale en plein centre ville, entièrement refait par le nouveau propriétaire, les chambres sont propres et bien aménagées avec goût et sobriété, le petit déjeuner est excellent et l'accueil y est très chaleureux et amical, bref tout pour se sentir bien et passer un excellent séjour.

A evitar
No repito y no lo recomiendo. La ubicación es muy buena (céntrico, al lado de la playa), el dueño es amable y simpático (nos puso unos huevos de pascua sobre las toallas y nos estaba esperando para explicarnos cómo usar el código nocturno), está limpio y las sábanas y toallas tenían muy buen olor... PERO, la calidad del sueño es pésima. Primero porque tiene mal aislamiento acústico, y se escucha tanto a los que caminan por la calle como a los otros huéspedes. Segundo porque el baño, cuya puerta no cerraba bien, tiene un ruido cíclico en las tuberías, tanto de cuando se usa en la propia habitación como en las otras. Tomé un vídeo de este ruido, pero no puedo subirlo... Se aprecia que a este hotel le han hecho una remodelación recientemente, pero ha sido superficial, de maquillaje. Los problemas más importantes no están resueltos, como el aislamiento acústico (en ventanas y paredes) o el sistema hidráulico (tanto para el inodoro, el lavamanos o la ducha). Tengo que confesar que esa noche pasé de ducharme, porque era dificilísimo lograr el equilibrio de agua fría y caliente, el plato de ducha era demasiado pequeño y el aspecto tampoco ayudaba. Tenía un descorchado en una esquina, y después de usar el lavabo, al que le tuve que quitar el colador para q pudiera drenar el agua, temí verme en un plato de ducha con tuberías lentas...

Slitet hotell mitt i smeten
Läget alldeles nära stranden och Casinot är så centralt mitt i semestergyttret det går att komma. Dock är huset ganska slitet, sängen väldigt liten och toaletten av typ mull-toa, dvs det går inte att dumpa för mycket åt gången utan att riskera en påhälsning från rörmokare. Det är en el-toa och väsnas alldeles förskräckligt. Aircondition saknas vilket gör att rummet blir mycket fuktigt. Att ha balkongdörren öppen under natten kommer inte på fråga då det vrålas och skränas hela nätterna igenom. Först vid 5-tiden på morgonen har de sista partydjuren dragit sig undan men då kommer armadan i form av stadens städpatrull igång med motordrivna lövblåsar ackompanjerade av gatsopningsbilar. Allt hörs in eftersom det är sås dåligt isolerat. Frukosten är inte att rekommendera. Bättre äta ute på stan. Nej, skärpning! Hotellet behöver en rejäl upprustning!

Ofräscht rum där hyllor hängde på trekvart och golvet var alldeles sandigt (dåligt städat). Badrum och toalett var nog bland det mest ocharmiga man kan tänka sig. Läget är oerhört centralt, men det för också med sig mycket ljud från festande människor hela natten.

for de som ikke vil sove
Utrolig mye bråk. Nesten umulig å sove der. Rommet hadde ikke noe vifte så vinduene måtte stå oppe. Da hotellet ligger midt i sentrum så opplevde vi fulle mennsker som sto og skrek utenfor hotellet midt på natt og det varte helt til 7 tida
