Positioned on a headland between two pristine beaches, this spectacular national monument has been welcoming guests since 1893. Originally built as the private residence of the Emperor Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie, it blends glamor and sophistication with Basque country warmth. 

Just steps from the pretty town center of Biarritz, its surroundings are packed with activities to inspire and delight. There are great golf courses, beaches that sweep towards the Pyrenees and nearby Spain, and Basque villages to explore inland.
