Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here on a Sunday evening at the end of July. Great central location just over the bridge from the train station. Staff were extremely helpful, providing recommendations for dinner as well as printing out bus tickets for us! We were both also extremely impressed with the pricing. Would definitely stay here again and would definitely recommend!

Great location, good size room , comfy bed. We stayed here two nights , the location is perfect to explore Bayonne and 20 min walk to the train station. The bathroom wasn’t the “greatest cleaning”, when we arrived , apart of that our experience in the hotel was good. Plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.

Pleasant visit. Centrally located and easy access to everything. Small rooms. Good bed with nice linens and towels. No great amenities in the bath. Disappointing. Friendly staff at front. No restaurant but close to all one needs. Would recommend.

We booked on the strength of the Mercure name and our previous experience of their hotels. Pros. The location was brilliant, staff were friendly and the vintage lift was amazing! The bathroom was great and the bed comfortable once we asked for extra pillows. Cons. The room. We have never before - and we hope never again - to come across such horrendous decor. It was clearly new(ish) but…the colour scheme of black, pink and puce with touches of grey for light relief were just awful. A black/green 3D leatherette headboard, a wicker covered wardrobe door, utterly bizarre side tables and a lamp which is hard to describe - and why was there a heavy curtain (think circular shower curtain) to pull around the door? When we checked out the receptionist told us everyone loved the style and, if we’d asked, we could have had a “normal” room. It’s hard to ask for one if you assume that all rooms are on the same theme. On top of all that the hallways had carpets that…I can’t find the words …and were cluttered with housekeeping trolleys holding spare duvets, linens etc. Not a nice look. Breakfast was adequate, that’s the best I can say, and expensive for what it was. Three * begins to sound generous.

Lovely front desk people. Our first room was straight out of American horror story. Strange set up, dirty carpet and some weird curtain at the entry door (?). They changed us to a seemingly renovated room on a higher floor which was much better. However A/C on 19 (about 66 Fahrenheit would not cool to barely about 78 degrees) the room had a cute rooftop view and was clean.

Had a lovely sleep in a comfy bed and a hot shower in the morning. All I want from a hotel. Friendly service at check-in but didn’t need anything else. They offered a list of restaurants where you can get a discount for staying at the hotel. Nice. Location is good for the town and about 15 minutes from the train station.
