Ever felt like going to visit wealthy friends in their beautiful estate and feeling so welcome you just did not want to leave? Well, just go to Parc Victoria... The owners are very nice and friendly, the park is incredibly manicured, flowers and old trees everywhere, a beautiful swimming pool and this unusual Art Deco collectors' furniture... Not to mention... More

Possibly a 5 star hotel in the eighties, but today one would associate it to a noveau riche mansion outside Moscow. But - the quiet garden is a bliss, and the restaurant serves excellent food, and we met a superbly professional and aimable sommelier. However, we can't fathom how a supposedly 5 star hotel can employ such a sloppy and... More

We spent a few days here in October 2010 and thoroughly enjoyed it, although it's a ten or fifteen minute walk into town. The rooms are pleasant with museum-like decorations. A fine restaurant is on the grounds and boasts the same kind of elegant appointments. The staff was quite helpful with our travel arrangements, which required frequent changes, due to... More

Booked 7 nights holiday because of its location and expected standards as member of Relais et Chateaux; I knew it was not cheap (over €300 a night without breakfast). Room and bathroom good size and generally well-appointed but blankets and pillows of poor man-made material and uncomfortable. The decor seems to be a job lot of repro Second Empire furniture,...

After reading the prior reviews, I was so excited about our trip to HPV in St. Jean de Luz. However, I did not find this hotel to be all that amazing. My husband and I travel extensively in Europe. This year we looked forward to a charming hotel near the coast after our busy schedule in Bordeaux. Yet we were... More

Friendly, welcoming check-in. Wonderfully comfortable, stylishly decorated room with its own small conservatory and balcony. Loved the (working) valve radio, in keeping with the art deco style of the whole place. Great bathroom (one of us likes baths, the other showers). We had been told by e-mail that they could not let us have a room with both. In fact... More

The Parc Victoria is located in a quiet residential suburb of St Jean de Luz. It is a lovely white Belle Epoque style building in beautiful, well maintained grounds. It is a 5 minute walk from the sea front and a 15 minute walk to the old town centre where there are plenty of restaurants, shops and bars. We were... More

We stayed in a wonderful art deco "pavillion" at this hotel (bigger than most apartments!), enjoying the pool, and gardens, attentive service and a fantastic meal. It's 5 minutes' walk to the far edge of the beach, about 10-15 mins' from the centre of town. You get what you pay for, and the experience more than lived up to the... More

We stumbled upon the Parc Victoria by accident on a recent trip through France and Spain. What a find! It was definately love at first sight for us. We stayed for 3 nights in a junior suite (room 1) which has its own private garden. The hotel's decor is 1930's and the place feels like a small country house. The... More
