Good breakfast, very modern, stylish décor, friendly staff, washing machine and dryer BUT reception hours are limited (at least in off season) and as much as I don't want to say anything bad about the place, the location is poor. 30 minute walk from town is pretty disappointing for most youth hostellers who won't have cars. Still, the hostel itself... More

Spent a week there, the room was clean and comfortable and there was an all around good vibe from the people there. The staff was very helpful but only available for a small part of the day. This is basque country so expect siesta! A long walk or or short bus ride to town, the location was not ideal but... More

The hostel is situated quite close to the train station, with some signs directing to the hostel. However, this is a 50 minute walk at least to the centre of the town! However, the rooms were of good quality and staff very helpful, with a standard kitchen and good facilities otherwise.

I've traveled a lot and know what to expect from a hostel. This was one of the very few hostels that I would never go back. First night of my stay there was no electricity in my dorm room. In order to have at least some light we had to keep the bathroom door wide open when taking a shower.... More

That's the first time that I went back from my holiday with the bug bites all over my body!!! From my ear to my hand, it's itching everywhere; I don't even have the courage to count the number of them. The reception is closed between 11:30 and 18:00, which means that there's really NOBODY working there to open the luggage... More

Stayed for 3 summer holidays but have been unable to do so since; due to the rooms being blocked booked in advance. It is still possible to stay there in summer but you'll have to sleep in a hall on a basic bunk bed with about 15 other people.

In Biarritz, European capital of surfing, you will feel privileged at the Youth Hostel. Moderne, comfortable, welcoming, and user-friendly, it offers a large choice of sport and cultural activities. It couldn't have a better setting. Located near all means of transportation, it is a gateway to the Basque hinterland. Hiking is definitely on the menu - You'll be at the foot of the Pyrenean Mountains, and on Spain's doorstep. Many pilgrims have a stop at the YH before starting the coastal path, also called "El Camino Francés", leading to Santiago de Compostela. This YH is located in a Natura 2000 protected area, on a lake shore, and very close to Biarritz Océan / la Cité du surf, the biggest European Surfing and Marine museum. ... more   less
