Campanile Dax - Saint Paul LÈS Dax

Good fast wifi, lovely green area to relax and close to the lake for long walks. Room was a bit aged and could do with more sockets, but the AC was a plus in the summer heat.

Nice place Easy to find. Very pleasant staff. We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. Breakfast was also very good will stay there again

We stayed here once before and vowed never to do so again but made a mistake and booked for one night while travelling north to Dieppe. Of course, we recognised the hotel as sson as we saw it; the images do not show the whole story. But first a plauidit for a lovely girl in reception who smiled, spoke better English than I do French. She did not recognise our discount card for the group but managed to find a way to meet the price we were expecting. The first complaint is about parking. there is a little in front of the hotel and none at reception which is a problem on a wet night. There is plenty by the rear rooms but signage is poor so you are likely to find your room, luggage laden, before you discover there is parking just below it! Having visited before we knew not to attempt the restaurant; there is no chef on Sunday evening but the receptionist managed to produce a couple of bottles of beer - there is no bar - which were very welcome. The rooms are very disappointing and not worth even the discounted price we paid. There is a kettle in the room and in our room, two kettle bases which defies logic. There are too few recharge points for today's plethora of electronic devices we use when travelling. The room was passably clean and the notice that there would be a fine for smoking, quite ridiculously high and frankly unenforceable. The final insult was found when using the shower room in the morning - a nasty, although dead bug and then to our horror another on the desk (pictured). Having complained to Campanile on our last visit and received a very poor response we haven't bothered this time and we most certaionly won't be back!
