    • An imperial setting for exceptional moments

      For nearly two centuries, the Hôtel du Palais has been the setting for some of the most memorable stories. A former imperial residence, it has hosted sumptuous balls, legendary film shoots, and prestigious events. Today, it continues this tradition by offering a unique setting to celebrate the moments that matter, from the Biarritz International Film Festival to the G7 summit.

      The Imperial Salon, formerly the ballroom of Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie, retains all its elegance with its allegorical paintings, original parquet flooring, and seven-meter-high glass ceiling. A true architectural gem, it hosts weddings, anniversaries, and private receptions in a timeless atmosphere.

      Five other intimate lounges, ranging from 32 to 78 square meters, are available for seminars, meetings, or exclusive dinners, with ocean views and personalized service. Every detail is designed to enhance the event: bespoke menus, floral decorations, artistic entertainment, and even private fireworks displays overlooking the Grande Plage.

      At the Hôtel du Palais, every celebration becomes an unforgettable experience, enhanced by the excellence of French craftsmanship and the magic of a place steeped in history.

    We had a wonderful stay at the hotel. Everything was excellent — the food was amazing, the views were beautiful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. However, there was one thing that left a really unpleasant impression on me, which I still think about. I wanted to buy a beach bag and when I asked how much it was, I was told it cost €30. I said okay, I’ll take it, and the purchase was added to my room. I had been using the bag for several days, and then I wanted to buy a matching cosmetic bag. I asked the price and was again told €30. But then I was shocked to find out that the bag actually cost €100, and I was asked to pay the difference, even though I had already been using it for several days and had been originally told a different price. I ended up paying the difference because that was the price, but this situation still leaves a bad impression. It felt dishonest, and unfortunately, it affects how I remember my stay at the hotel.
