An identity and a clear choice to marry the old and the contemporary

The Hotel Le Garage Biarritz enjoys an idyllic location: it is located at the entrance to the city, facing the Biarritz lighthouse, which can be admired from the panoramic terraces. Close to the Miramar beach and the Golf de Biarritz, it is a perfect place for a multi-faceted stay: shopping, relaxation, sport, and rest, everything is available on foot !

The inhabitants of Biarritz and the regulars know Le Garage Régina well, it leaves no one indifferent and is part of the memories of the Belle Epoque of the Basque Coast. It was in the 1900s that this rounded building, reminiscent of the ripples of the ocean, was built to serve as a carriage warehouse. A shed, which will then be enlarged and will become the headquarters of the Aéroclub de Biarritz. In the 1930s, Le Garage Régina was a closed car park, so that customers of the nearby Hotel Regina could store their sumptuous luxury vehicles, well protected in individual boxes. In the 1960s, a mechanic moved there and there was even an Esso gas pump placed outside, in front of the building. The warehouse was abandoned in the 1980s, desperately closed to the eyes of passers-by, to whom it brings back so many memories! In 2018, the Colorama, an annual Street Art and urban culture festival that invests a place doomed to destruction to bring it back to life, takes up residence at Garage Régina and it is the start of an idea: 10 months of renovation will be needed to transform this industrial building into a very original upscale hotel…

Of course, the Hotel Le Garage Biarritz has a parking lot (in French) ! You can park your vehicle there, like the hosts of the Belle Époque, after enjoying the beauties of the road along the coast...

A raw and refined decor at the same time, a chic boutique hotel: the Hotel Le Garage Biarritz is an ode to the Belle Epoque spirit of the place, while conceding, through bare materials such as wood (the furniture) and the metal (the doorframes in particular), a reminiscence of its industrial aspects of yesteryear. It's a successful marriage, the birth of a beautiful identity where design gives way to comfort. The place is friendly, and you immediately feel at ease.
