Hi,

I and a friend will be laying over in Biarritz and Bayonne. Would someone please recommend good places (not necessarily a Refugio) where we can prep for our start on the Camino. Thanks.
 
St James' Way - Self-guided 4-7 day Walking Packages, Reading to Southampton, 110 kms
I found this place satisfactory:

Hôtel Des Arceaux
26 Rue Port Neuf
64100 Bayonne, France
05 59 59 15 53
hotel-arceaux.com‎
 
Biarritz has two good youth hostels who treat older people exceptionally well. One is two blocks from the train station. When I stayed there it was 18 Euros for a years pass to the youth hostel association, the night at the hostel including breakfast.
Also if you Google two-star hotels you'll see lots of very suitable ones in the historic part of town. I have stayed at different ones and they were all fine. One that comes to mind is the Auberge du Relais, 44 Avenue de la Marne, 64200 Biarritz. tel:05.59.24.85.90 fax:05.59.22.13.94 Or you can go the whole spa route and spend the big bucks if you're in the mood. :wink:
Buen camino
