Thats the positives over with! austere room lacking any charm. I will never return! Dined inhouse, the french fries were raw and disgusting, I complained twice but received little comment even from the Maitre D! Breakfast was help yourself, much like a school canteen. The coffee came from a machine and was the worst I have ever tasted and the... More

good location though difficult to access now that the town has become pedestrian access only. our room had been renovated and was really pleasant to be in. it had a couryard outlook which might not be as nice as if it had been a street view but we stayed there 4 nights and we appreciated the quietness at night, except...

Pau is a new destination from Southampton so we thought we would give it a try.It is a place where the wealthy English holidayed during the summer in the 19th century so we thought it would be a good place with lots to do and see. We selected this hotel because the bus from the airport which runs hourly every... More

I'm an American who has been living in France since 1997 and I finally had the pleasure to organize my summer vacation in the South West corner of France. After two weeks along the extreme southern coast and to avoid the nasty weekend French traffic back to Paris, I booked a weekend in this Best Western downtown Pau. Magnificent older... More

This place could be nice, but it isn't. It's biggest weakness are the rooms and this hotel should by no means have a 3* ranking. A 2* ranking would be much more appropriate. The breakfast is quite good, the restaurant actually too, but why eat there with all the excellent and cheaper places within walking distance? The room was old,... More

We stayed here two nights a week apart as part of a circular tour that we were doing. The first time we stayed the room allocated to us was adequate if very dated. The second time we stayed the room allocated to us was terrible. On the second floor at the front of the hotel overlooking the main street. Very... More

Looking at previous reviews we were not sure what to expect but I think we got one of the refurbished rooms. Room was really large and was newly decorated. Bathroom and separate toilet also new. We paid €50 euros for the room for the night. Hotel has free parking - which was an adventure as it is in the pedestrian... More

We stayed here for one night while travelling in France and were very disappointed. We had a standard room at the back of the hotel, which was very basic. It was very hot and we requested a fan as offered in the room guide but were told one wasn't available. The hotel had a very good location and it had... More

I was placed in a worn out room which looked as if it hadnt been touched since the 60s on the top floor where I picked up a flea. There was blood on the inside of the door which made me query the standards of cleanliness throughout the hotel. The room was in contrast to the very posh reception and... More

So we got a room that may not have got otherwise - large circular shaped main bedroom + another small one nearby for the children. Exceptionnal when built 100 years ago. The bathroom was new though. The hotel is being renovated room by room, the food is great, the staff helpful, there's a parking and it is in the middle... More
