  Ho soggiornato una notte per la festa basca, la posizione è centrale anche se è una via pedonale e non è possibile accedere con la macchina

  Hotel in pieno centro storico. Ideale per visitare la città. Hotel vecchio ma discretamente sistemato.

  La reception aperta poche ore solo di giorno (e chiusa tutto il sabato pomeriggio), così che non ho potuto ottenere l'attivazione del servizio Wifi (che è incluso, ma bisogna chiedere l'abilitazione). La finestra della camera che da sulle scale (chiuse), quindi carente la ventilazione. In più sul pianerottolo fuori dalla finestra c'è un divanetto, per cui più volte mi son trovato altri ospiti praticamente sotto la finestra stessa.

  It was in the right of the old part of town and very convinient to go to anywhere. Great location to have an easy access to Biarritz and San Sebastian/Bilbao by bus. Staff was nice and friendly, too.

  Stayed in single room. The wall between the rooms were thin and I could hear all the noise and voices from the other rooms. Was a bit difficult to sleep at the first night. The second night, I did not have anybody next to my room, so no noise at all.

  It's pretty much at the heart of the pedestrianised area of Old Bayonne. I like 17th century Basque architecture, so I knew it would be "bijou"; but it is also full of charm. After a long day travelling I found it quiet and restful, so it was especially pleasing to discover my room had been upgraded for the same price. I will stay here again.

  My room seemed to be out of the reach of the hotel's wifi zone... Old Bayonne closes down around 7pm, apart from the Irish Pub. But neither of these things would stop me from going back.

  The best thing about the Hotel des Arceaux is its position in the old town of Bayonne. However, this factor in turn led to problems with parking. You can only use the road outside for loading and unloading. Otherwise you have to park in a nearby car park at significant expense.

  I booked the Hotel des Arceaux on the basis of Lonely Planet's recommendation, which I think is overhyped. Breakfast was extra at 7 euros each, which was poor value for money. With hindsight we'd have had breakfast in one of the cafés outside. Our bill for two nights was about £160, ie £80 a night for b&b, which far too much for what we got. There isn't a lift, so I had to lug suitcases up three flights of stairs. The staff go off duty at 7:00 pm. The bathroom was inadequate, with a tiny bath, no shower screen and a defective plug in the washbasin. I got the impression that little money had been invested in the hotel for a long time, apart from a coat of paint, and that the owners regarded it as a cash cow.

  Location right in the middle of town was brilliant. It was right in the middle of a shopping strip and only 100 metres or so from the cathedral so very central. There was public car parking nearby, about 100 meters away.The street was pedestrianised so was very quiet. It was very good value for money and the rooms were cute and clean. Each room had a different decorative theme. There was a lovely lounge room to sit in.

  We were on the fourth floor and there was no elevator so it was quite a hike up the stairs although the owner carried my bags for me. We knew this before we arrived so we did not really mind as the location was so good.

  The location and old world charm was great! Friendly, helpful staff.

  Only a hand held shower over the bath but adequate!

  Lovely rooms - sparcely but nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Excellent location, in the heart of the old town. Very good value for money.

  The reception closes at 7.00 P.M., so arrival later than that is apparently impossible. This makes it very inconvenient for people who arrive by train (or by air) when it might not always be possible to plan the arrival time accordingly. Still, might be possible to ring them to make different arrangements.

  A rather idiosyncratic place! It is an old merchant's house above shops in the pedestrianised old town. The room had comfortable, clean beds and bedding. Only one sachet of soap/shampoo per person supplied - that covered a shower and so nothing to use when washing hands after using the tiolet. The door to the room needed attention as we could only shut it by slamming it! The breakfast was the traditional French one of bread, croissant, coffee and really jam. The staff very pleasant. I would recommend it with the reservations mentioned above.

  See above - need for soap in bathroom and room door needing attention.

  Convenient position for sight-seeing in the old town

  Total lack of parking, parking in the town was also a problem, and staff were not prepared to suggest how we could, as an elderly couple, move our bags on a very hot day.

  Nice small room. Clean and quiet.

  The one bathroom with toilet and shower in one room probably wasn't enough for the floor. Didn't take the breakfast so can't comment.

  Friendly owners and excellent location. Room cleaned daily.

  Poor internet access. Stayed for 5 days but only had wi-fi access on two occasions and both times for a short period only. Room (No.2) is small but adequate but be prepared for lots of noise from the street cleaners early each morning. Bathroom located at the end of the corridor needs a few hooks for hanging clothes, towel etc while showering.

  The man on recpetion was charming! We asked him where the Launrdomat was, and instead he washed and dried our clothes himself! Our room was lovely (3rd floor, room 7) - we only had a washbasin, with the shower and toilet being on the 2nd floor, but I think we only shared it with one other room. The location is fantastic! There is a very good bakery a couple of doors up to get breakfast or lunch.

  There is no handbasin in the toilet - so take hand santisier with you. Other than that - couldn´t fault this place!

  Our room was fantastic value for money. Small, but tastefully decorated and comfortable with a true "French feel". It was slightly inconvenient to have to use a bathroom on another floor but we felt this was a fair sacrifice for such an affordably priced room. The location of this hotel couldn't be better - right in the heart of Bayonne just steps away from the cathedral or the river, with shops, restaurants, cafes and convenience stores all nearby. The tourist information centre, public gardens, bus and even the railway station are all within easy walking distance too so you needn't worry about transport at all. We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Des Arceaux and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone wishing to visit this beautiful city.

  The single long pillow on the bed wasn't satisfactory.
