Presentation

Just steps away from the lively streets of downtown Bayonne, OKKO Hotels Bayonne Centre offers an accommodation experience designed to combine comfort, aesthetics, and relaxation. The contemporary architecture of the establishment, with its clean lines and light façades, stands out elegantly in the urban landscape, between the Arènes and the banks of the Adour. The hotel occupies a central location, easily accessible on foot or by public transport, in close proximity to the city's historical landmarks and about fifteen minutes from Biarritz or Anglet by bus.

Upon arrival, you are welcomed by a caring team, available at any time, in a setting where common spaces are designed to foster both rest and interaction. On the top floor, the Club opens its doors to you. This unique space, reserved for guests, overlooks the city and offers an unobstructed view of the Adour on one side and the Basque mountains on the other, including the iconic peak of La Rhune.

The ninth-floor terrace extends the pleasure of a suspended moment, whether to get some fresh air at the end of the day, sip a drink, or simply admire the urban landscape and distant mountains. Inside, you'll find a serene and light-filled space where comfortable armchairs, a press corner, a library, and a shop with local products coexist naturally. The Club is accessible at any time and allows you to snack or refresh yourself freely, day or night.

The overall atmosphere of the place aligns with a contemporary philosophy of hospitality, where service is neither ostentatious nor distant but warm, fluid, and efficient. The hotel also features a fitness area, equipped to allow everyone to maintain an active rhythm if they wish, as well as a sauna, perfect for a restorative break after a day of sightseeing.

The 92 rooms spread over nine floors boast a refined and minimalist design, created by Patrick Norguet. The choice of neutral tones, accented with splashes of color, creates an atmosphere that is both understated and welcoming. Each room, approximately 18 m² in size, is designed for one or two people and carefully arranged to combine functionality and comfort.

The bed, generously sized, is equipped with custom-made natural fiber bedding, dressed in linen and cotton sheets. You'll find a discreet workspace, a luggage rack, a safe, and a Nespresso coffee machine. Wi-Fi is provided at no extra charge, and air conditioning allows you to easily regulate the temperature to your liking.

In the bathroom, the walk-in shower is complemented by organic cotton linens and care products from brands committed to responsible practices. The attention to these details contributes to an overall impression of well-being, without excess.

For dining moments, the hotel's Cave à manger offers a simple and delicious selection inspired by local products. Throughout the day and evening, you can discover a variety of charcuterie, cheeses, seasonal hot dishes, and sweet treats to share. The approach is convivial, with a focus on the freshness of ingredients and the quality of beverages, including a wine list curated from committed producers.

Each morning, a comprehensive breakfast is served buffet-style. It combines brunch classics with regional products to start the day off right. The service is seamless, with no strict schedule, allowing everyone to organize their day at their own pace.

Private parking is available subject to availability, and the hotel also offers a storage area for bicycles. The reception, open 24/7, is available for any request, whether for outing suggestions, practical services, or logistical questions.

From OKKO Hotels Bayonne Centre, you can easily reach the city's most iconic neighborhoods. Just a few minutes' walk away, Old Bayonne reveals its maze of narrow streets, half-timbered houses, bustling markets, and small shops. Crossing the bridge also brings you to the right bank and the Saint-Esprit district, quieter and ideal for a stroll along the Adour.

Among the must-sees, Sainte-Marie Cathedral is worth a stop, as is the adjacent cloister and the Basque Museum, which recounts the history and traditions of this region with a strong character. The city center is also full of galleries, workshops, and spots where you can discover local craftsmanship.

If you’re traveling in spring or summer, you might have the chance to attend a festival, a bullfight, or a concert at Bayonne’s Arènes. The city’s traditional festivities, particularly lively in July, are also a highlight of local life, with their parades, activities, and concerts.

Architecture and panoramic view enthusiasts will appreciate the walk to the Vauban ramparts or the renovated quays, where military history, port heritage, and a relaxed lifestyle blend harmoniously. The banks of the Adour, quickly accessible from the hotel, also invite relaxation or a morning jog.

If you wish to extend your stay, the proximity of the Basque coast makes it easy to plan a getaway to Biarritz, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, or even San Sebastián, all accessible by train or car. By choosing OKKO Hotels Bayonne Centre, you offer yourself a comfortable, contemporary, and welcoming base to discover a vibrant and authentic city.
