First and foremost, the woman who runs the property, Claudette was such a joy! She was so warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable regarding the area/places to go. Claudette was also super responsive prior to the trip via phone and email (had some booking snafus' on my end - nothing to do with the property, she did everything to reassure me). She even called me a couple days before to let me know she'd upgraded our room at no extra cost so we could have one of the rooms on the back of the hotel with a gorgeous terrace! The property itself is in the MOST convenient location. We took the train and the walk to the property was 10 mins total. Rue de la Republique is where the action is in terms of all the yummy places to eat. It's also yards away from the beach...literally 1 mins from the front door of the hotel to the main beach. It is also a 2 mins walk from the front door of the hotel to Place de Louis XIV where there's always music playing and plenty of outdoor spots to enjoy some rose! Hotel Txoko (pronounced TCh-o-ckau) was steps away from the main shopping drag as well. The rooms were so clean and the ideal size. I stayed there with my boyfriend for 2 nights and 3 days. They had AC that actually kept the room cool because it can be quite humid this time of year...also AC in France is not a common well working thing in hotels I've found so this was a bonus. We also opted for the 12 Euro breakfast on the last day which was super yummy. We each had a croissant, pain au chocolat, bowl of seasonal fruit, OJ, coffee, and the local cheese and jambon. It rained our last day so it was super convenient to be able to enjoy breakfast before catching our train. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend choosing Hotel Txoko as your stay while in the beautiful Saint-Jean-de-Luz. Claudette and her team are a joy to interact with. Mostly recommend staying here as a solo traveler, couple, or family of 3. I also cannot stress this enough but ask for the rooms with the private Terrace on the back of the property - quieter and lovely to sit outside!
