Hotel & Spa Vacances Bleues Le Splendid

The room was much larger than I had expected, with high ceilings and big windows. The bathroom was a good size and the shower pressure was really good. There was plenty of space to hang clothes and store luggage. The location is central and a good base to wander round the town. The food in the restaurant was extremely good and the wine list was extensive. The terrace bar was great and shaded from the evening sun, which was a bonus on my visit. The public areas and the room were extremely clean and the staff were friendly and courteous. I had an early start and they were happy to arrange for a taxi to get me to the station on time and were explicit on where I needed to be when the taxi arrived. Overall, it was a great stay and I would have no hesitation in staying here again.

Room was very smart. They provided large towel robes and slippers in the room. Liked having a large bathroom with separate toilet. Also room featured a safe and a fridge. Room was immaculately clean. Dinner at the restaurant was delicious with a varied menu. Our waiter Omar couldn't have done more. Spa was Devine. We would definitely visit Dax again but maybe for longer.

The hotel is perfectly located. Our room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Spa center with swimming pool, hammam, floating, sauna and delicious tea is simply magnificent, but available only for an additional fee. It was free for the residents of the hotel before the covid, so be careful when booking a room. It was very good that there were few people in the spa. Massages, spa rituals and visit to spa center must be booked in advance.

Art Deco experience does not describe it... it's more like time travel into a forgotten realm of faded 30-ies grandeur. We ended up there by accident and I was surprised not to see Hercule Poirot in the lobby... Apparently Ernest Hemingway swung by the other day... Who knows. Did not see any Bugattis or Cadillacs outside. The rooms were unabashedly comfortable. You did not "fall" asleep. You "sunk" into a world of dreams. Bathrooms were grand. You would have the shower even if you were clean! Aircon worked. We had "canal view" rooms which offered a splendid morning view - just like the name suggested. Kids remember this hotel most from our trip even though it did not have a swimming pool. (well, that is not true - there is a Spa, which we sadly did not have a time to enjoy!). Perhaps next time...

The hotel is located on the river and near lots of eateries and shopping in center of town. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. We were on bicycles and were able to store them securely in baggage room. The rooms are spacious, the beds super comfortable. The bathrobes and slippers added a touch of luxury. We highly recommend this hotel.
