Hotel berhampiran Pinasse Freebay, Arcachon

This was our second stay and we spent again 4 amazing days in Hotel Point France. Rooms are comfortable and well equipped. Beds are large and very comfortable. During the heatwave, the AirCon was super appreciated! Location is absolutely perfect, right in Arcachon city center, just in front of one of the main beaches, and close to many restaurants and shops. Hotel staff is super friendly and helpful. We had a problem on our departure due to the train station being shut down, and the staff made dozens of calls to help us find a taxi to Bordeaux. Thank you all and look forward to coming back.

Perfect location, near the shops, the markets, the restaurants, the train station; the beach, the supermarkets, the quay (for boat trips). Couldn’t fault it. The reception staff were particularly helpful and having arrived early on a train from Paris they phoned us as soon as our room was ready. The cleaning staff were also very friendly and helpful. The small kitchen was well equipped and we even had a mini dishwasher. An unexpected balcony was a bonus. We never tried the breakfast (we were too close to the boulangerie/patisserie) or the hot tub. The roof top terrace was ok but we never actually sat up there. Couldn’t fault it!

Surrounding is commercial area. New rooms, small but for 2-3 days okay. Twin bed rooms closer to highway and windows not soundproof. Hotel director and employees attentive. Breakfast small choice but fresh. Beautiful small terrace.

Wij zijn nu 3x in het hotel geweest om te overnachten na een ziekenhuis opname. Vriendelijke mensen aan de receptie en goede studiokamers voorzien van magnetron en een kleine kookgelegenheid. Ook het serviesgoed voor 2 personen ontbreekt niet. De bedden zijn prima evenals de badkamer met bad.

Having stayed here for a few days I can only describe the hotel as average at best. To describe the positives first: friendly staff, codes for the doors meaning no concern over lost key cards, and free parking. For the rest…. We had a plus room but there was nothing plus about them except the Nespresso machine, which we were given 3 capsules for 3 nights stay between two of us, and of course the fact we were given an extra towel and a hairdryer. Size wise the room was smaller than I’d expect for something described as a plus room but had all the amenities needed including somewhere to hang clothes and a shower. The air conditioning advertised came on for 1 minute every 30 minutes and while there was a thermostat in the room, the unit could not be controlled by us to get it to blow out constantly or cold enough leading us to be too hot for the whole stay, even in April, this lead to poor quality of sleep. With the window open you can dulcetly be put to sleep by the constant noise from the motorway though. The bed is the typical European very firm but on the positive the double bed was actually a double and not too singles pushed together. Breakfast was 10.95€ per person per day which for continental breakfast seemed steep however there are plenty of cafes and bakeries within a short drive which serve good coffee and food choices for breakfast for cheaper. It was our first experience of hotel b&b brand and in all honesty it will be our last. While the option was the cheapest in the area, there was a good reason for that. Personally had we been aware of the standard of the hotel more before booking I’d have paid more for a more comfortable accommodation with controllable air con and a softer bed.
