A new property in the MGallery Collection
The Talaia Hotel & Spa Biarritz MGallery Collection marks the brand’s arrival in the Basque Country, just a stone’s throw from the beaches of Biarritz. The 149-room hotel, including 8 suites and 20 family rooms, boasts breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. The hotel also boasts a Cinq Mondes spa and a restaurant run by Chef Éric Frechon.
The hotel’s interior design, by Jean-Philippe Nuel, is inspired by Basque influences, with natural colours and warm materials. The façade of the hotel has been completely renovated by Agence Claret-Lebecq, and the interior features a contemporary decor that respects the local heritage.
An experience centred on nature and Basque culture
The hotel places particular emphasis on respect for the local environment, with a design that pays homage to the region, notably through colours inspired by the ocean and Basque landscapes. The architecture and decoration of the spaces also reflect the soul of Biarritz, with elements such as local ceramics and bespoke Italian fabrics.
The hotel offers a panoramic roof terrace, a spa dedicated to wellness and a restaurant where Basque gastronomy meets Mediterranean influences. Guests can also enjoy a variety of local experiences such as cooking classes and Tiki Combi Van rides, an original way to discover the city.
The hotel’s rooftop restaurant “La Petite Plage” serves cuisine inspired by local produce, while the bar offers a signature cocktail featuring Basque terroir with Espelette chilli-infused rum. The spa offers holistic wellness treatments inspired by traditional rituals.
The hotel’s “M Moment” allows guests to discover Biarritz through a series of immersive activities, from discovering the local art scene to surfing, while supporting local and community projects.
Working with local communities
The hotel is also committed to supporting local initiatives, particularly through partnerships with Basque NGOs such as La Maison Goxa Leku. This centre supports people with cancer, and the hotel participates in holistic wellness programmes and hosts events in support of this cause.
