Hotel du Palais Imperial Resort & Spa
Biarritz, France
Official rating: 4 star
The Hôtel du Palais in Biarritz, is a joyous palace with a memory, a style, and a rich history. Its style is of the Second Empire, during which the reputation of Biarritz as "Queen of Beaches and the Beach of Kings" was established. Formerly the summer mansion of Napoleon III and Empress Eugenia, Hotel du Palais is now among the most beautiful hotels in the world, overlooking the beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Owned by the city of Biarritz, the hotel has been permanently restored. Each beautifully designed guest room is air-conditioned and has satellite television. The hotel’s luxury and ageless charm, coupled with its outstanding sports facilities, make the Palais an international center for vacationers and sports enthusiasts alike.Today, more than ever, it is this distinct charm, neither antiquated nor pompous, but eternally elegant, that gives this unique hotel its role as jewel of a seaside village made famous by chance and the caprices of time.
