HistoriqueRomantiquePlageFamilleHeritage

The Château du Clair de Lune occupies a 1900 residence on avenue Alan-Seeger, between the centre of Biarritz and the Anglet border. We sleep in a listed building, with original parquet, mouldings and marble fireplaces, restored as a 14-room boutique hotel. The heated outdoor pool, open from April to October, overlooks a wooded garden that shields from the avenue noise. The restaurant serves contemporary Basque cuisine in the former dining room, wood panelling and park views. Family rooms accommodate up to four people, pets accepted without supplement. From 352,74 € per night, rated 8,9/10 on 253 reviews, placing the address in the upper echelon of Biarritz without reaching the rates of the Miramar or the Regina. Private parking free of charge, rare in Biarritz ✨

Who is it for?

Who we recommend it to

We recommend the Château du Clair de Lune to couples seeking a human-scale 5★, far from the bustle of the town centre and the grand seafront palaces. Families find their fit thanks to the spacious rooms, the garden and the pet-friendly policy. It is an address for three-to-four-night stays, between beach and discovery of the Basque Country, without protocol or dress code.

The building

Architecture and interiors

The château dates from 1900, built for a Biarritz bourgeois family in the Belle Époque style. Stone façade, slate roof, bow windows on the garden side. Interior restored in 2015 with conservation of original elements: solid oak parquet, ceiling mouldings, white and black marble fireplaces. The 14 rooms occupy the two floors, all different, between 22 and 45 m² for the family ones.

At the table

Restaurants, bar, service

Continental breakfast served in the dining room or on the garden-side terrace, with home-made pastries. Room service available until 22h, simplified menu.
