The outdoor swimming pool is surrounded by a sun-worshipper's paradise with vine-strewn cloisters. A range of spa treatments are available at the Dr. Hauchka's spa, including facials and massages. Guests can enjoy nearby activities, such as visits to Zooland Park and Kid Parc.

“Hotel Ville D'Hiver merges historic charm with a boutique sensibility, though some experiences appear inconsistent. I note reports of underwhelming service and room issues which give me pause, especially given the hotel's ambitions. Still, its proximity to Arcachon Beach and distinctive design, incorporating an art gallery ambiance, remain clear advantages for vacationers.”
