Is a beautiful small castle with a lot of story. It can only be visit with a guide so be aware of this before going. The place is pretty to spend an hour in there. The outside of the castle has a garden and áreas to walk and visit too.

It's cool, and quick to see, but a big part of the castle is not accessible.

Beautiful house to look round, a sign in English in every room, the guide that takes you round is all in French but was still excellent! And good value at 7 euros per person

It's a great chateau! We would have enjoyed it more if there were a guided tour in English. We could not visit the chateau without a private tour, and they were all in French. I speak Portuguese and Spanish, but that didn't help at all while trying to understand the guide! I want to learn French so I don't miss anything like this again!!! The staff was great and I highly recommend the visit!

Nice for a guided tour. Refurbished in the 19th century. Birthplace of Henry the 4th.

The castle exterior is fabulous. Unfortunately, we were unable to tour the inside as we did not know that the first Sunday of the month is free entry and they had reached their maximum at 4:00 pm. No doubt it would have been a great visit.

Renewed castle nicely equipped with newer and older furniture, tapestries, curtains. Nice to see. Admission is 10 eur and only in guided groups (app. 10-25 people) but all guidance is in French. There are plaques with basic inscriptions in French. English and Spanish.

Les Halles de Pau is a large 2-storey building that houses markets, both permanent and daily. Half of the lower floor is a farmers- market with fresh foods from the farms. The lower floor of the other half also has fresh foods but includes lots of lamb(especially now at Easter), fish, beef, pork, duck, cheese, wine and sweet treats like chocolate and macarons. Upstairs, above this section, are eateries, including tapas, and an oyster bar, among others. Today, I had tapas and tried my best french. The servers where you order and pick up, were super nice. The one woman who didn't speak English grabbed her colleague who did. Oh, and the food was très bien! The poulet mariner (marinated chicken) and potatas bravas were delicious! And as the name says, tapas, dishes to share. The amounts were very plentiful!

Some of the most delicious food I’ve ever tasted. The tapas are to die for! The macarons, ice cream, and baked goods are all superb. The selection is tremendous! I’ll have to go back for a longer stay to sample more next time!

A really nice permanent indoors market with fresh, local produce sold directly from the farmers. Organic vendors, fresh flowers, cheeses, honey, cured and fresh meats, wines, baked goods… Lovely restaurants upstairs serving good quality food at very reasonable prices. Overall a nice cultural experience.

Outstanding selection and options. A beautiful very modern Food Hall on the lower floor and an outstanding Food Court on the upper floor. HIGHLY recommend to visit!!

Nice, neat and clean fresh product market. Has restaurants on the top floor. All a little pricy.

A wonderful selection of fresh and prepared foods. Great place to have a grazing lunch!!!

Really nice market, a lot of cheese and local produce. Beware that all the food places close at 14:00, even though the market itself closes at 15:00.

Good selection of clothing.

Everything clothing, bags and shoes are sold here. Good quality.

I originally posted a negative review because I visited a not-so-great location of GL. I saw the response of the owner which informed me about a fire that has been taken place. It's only fair to wait and see how they will come back, so I pause my opinion and wish them lots of good luck to rebuild the original store again.

Truly open, friendly, and caring consultants.

Certain products have good prices and others don't. Always when I find something that I love is more expansive then anywhere. The galleries from Bayonne are a much better option in therms of diversity.

Nice but not quite like Paris Lafayette

Poor selections look as second-hand store... could not find anything to buy. I'm very disappointed.

Pretty good collection, with some big names like Rubens, Bruegel, Degas, El Greco and a few more. It's a small museum, 1h/1h30 is enough to see it - in that sense it's enjoyable. Also the entry is free and the staff are nice

It was a hot afternoon in Pau and I came in not quite sure what to expect. What a treat! Free for starters. Quiet (such a contrast to the galleries in London). Amazing permanent exhibition and - a total treat - seeing the work of one of the masters of photography, Robert Doisneau (a special exhibition). Very friendly staff who did all they could to deal with my schoolboy French. A very good (small) guide in English to illuminate some of their major works.

This is an excellent well curated art museum with works from the 1600s through the twentieth century.

I cant believe that this caliber museum has free admission. Small diverse collection with some very incredible gems.

It fantastic that the small towns has got galleries ✌️✌️ I totally enjoyed it and ladies were kind … the only downside was that 2 of us - we both got lost - the building is a bit confusing if you’re there first time so I was trying to follow the green arrows but they just took me around - please, mark the exits ;-)) The colour glass was great✌️✌️

The entrance is free. Small but interesting. There are couple of grande masters paintings, Rubens and Degas, but the rest are not so well known. Like some, I would say impressionist, there.

What a cute little museum! With first class art: El Greco, Degas, and many others. Tour de France exhibition at the moment with bicycles from early 20th century. Very helpful and friendly staff! A must if you are in Pau.

What a fun way to get from Pau train station to the upper part of the city. It takes you directly to the Chateau de Pau and wonderful restaurants and shops. And there is no charge?

This is a wonderful old for Nicola train. It doesn’t go particularly far, but it is free to ride on and runs every five minutes or so. It takes you from the lower area of the city near the train station up to the upper part of the town a fun thing to do

Free transport between the city centre and the train station in Pau... But not the usual way. The Funicular is a historic piece of art and worth a ride, even if you don't need to go to the station! The cabins quickly fill with people and the two trains set off, meet in the middle and touch down at the opposite end. The view from up here to the mountains is spectacular too!

Awesome. It is worth the wait and money.

Not much to see at the bottom, but why miss a free ride on something that is part of history and free? Not much of that around! It leaves every 5 or so minutes and the trip is not more than than 3 or 4.

I'm from Brazil 🇧🇷 I loved the experience! It's free to go up and down, you just need to be aware of the schedules.

Completely free of charge, goes up and down. There's space for Bicycles as well, and bags. Place to sit and stand. 2 carts in total, 1 goes one direction and the other one in another.

It was amazing. Our group 100 Voices of Gospel was well received.

Great concert venue. Big free parking.

Excellent

Feels like sitting in a football stadium but other than that it's pretty nice

I tried to enter the Casino de Pau tonight at 10pm to play poker. Although this is not written anywhere on their website that you cannot enter without, I have been asked an ID, which I presented and got told that this is not a valid ID. I have been playing poker in many casinos around the globe and this is the first time ever that I got asked an ID to enter a casino and second that my Federal and valid driving licence is not an acceptable ID. The staff was absolutely not helpful, unapologetic and they were rude. This behavior is unacceptable and is certainly giving the impression of an amateur and sloppy business !

I would go here after games, to just relax, eat a really good meal or have a drink with friends, the diabolo fraise is really good! Also Salsa night is really fun here.

Cool

Not good we lost lots of money 😄

Lovely and beautiful casino! loved the design but a bit small

super

Nice place to watch races and bet. Entry for free and there is lots of parking. Other activities are there during events.

Very enjoyable afternoons racing. Clean, and very pleasant. Best of all it was free to enter

good atmosphere, good racing, good food and very pleasant staff

Ni e pla e and people, shame I was only working at the racecourse so never got to really enjoy the place.

Great place to eat and watch the racing.

Good race course 👍

Bonito hipodromo

Travelling on holiday from the UK so thought would pop in. Nice small museum with some great exhibits. Just a donation at the end which is more than reasonable. Everything is in French unsurprisingly lol but Google translate worked wonders and I could understand everything. Well worth a visit to kill 1 or 2 hrs. Was even able to watch today's Paratroopers in training jumping off a massive platform.

Good parking, Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent displays of medals, insignia and regimental flags. Guided tours in assorted languages from Veterans who were at many of the incidents shown in the video presentations. Excellent value for those interested in military history. Possibly not ideal for little children. Good military history source and a small shop with souvenirs. I'll be going back next time in Pau.

Please check opening times. Phone if possible. It was shut on my arrival, at scheduled opening times!!

Amazing experience - and great for kids too with a lot of interactive stuff.

Really informative, limited English!

Amazing!

(Translated by Google) A museum retracing the history of French paratroopers from their beginnings to current engagements. The program covers traditions, heritage, and current events of the airborne troops. A well-documented and informative two-hour tour is ideal for adults and children alike. A small shop offers a small purchase as a reward for our valiant soldiers. Free admission. Warm welcome. A must-see. (Original) Musée retraçant l'histoire des parachutistes français depuis leurs débuts jusqu'aux engagements actuels. Traditions, patrimoine et actualités des troupes aéroportées sont au programme. Une visite de 2 heures très documentée et très instructive pour les grands mais aussi pour les enfants. Une petite boutique pour un petit achat en récompense de nos valeureux soldats. Entrée gratuite. Accueil chaleureux. A voir et revoir.

The place is really nice. You can come and have a picnic here and there are lots of places to sit.

Nice park to get away from the busyness and the heat of the city center. Free public bathrooms will be welcome for travelers with kids.

Nice place to have picnic and amazing summer festival. I went for lej and I loved that. You should book your place but it's free.

Natural scenic beauty Gives a heavenly feel Gives an overview of the city and the Pyrenees mountains

Good for families as the playground is near juat need to cross the road towards the barbanegra villa. Weird looking swan looks like a long neck duck

A true 5 star hotel. Wonderful rooms and amenities. Attention to every detail. The staff was impressive in every way. Helpful, professional and multi-lingual. Rooms with open balconies, nespresso machines and relaxing decor. I ate primarily in the bar/brasserie. I would certainly go back.

Quiet park with nice views on the Pyrenees, benches loss of trees and the mandatory ice cream van. Good playground for kids but could use a baby swing.

Excellent course, impressive history very well presented with some very interesting holes. Well worth a green fee.

Place to visit in Pau. Very green, quite, big area.

Good restaurant, nice staff

Went for lunch but must have had an event because lunch took a few hours. Didn’t seem to have enough wait staff.

(Translated by Google) I've already been to St. Andrews, but I'm so glad I got to experience this phenomenon on the European mainland. This beautiful par 69 parkland course plays beautifully. In the middle of summer, the fairways were pristine and the greens magnificent. The greenkeepers did a fantastic job. The welcome was also incredibly friendly! You're truly treated like a guest of honor at this club. Highly recommended if you're in the area and can spare four hours to play the 18 holes! (Original) Ik bezocht reeds St Andrews, maar ben zo blij dat ik dit fenomeen op het Europese vasteland mocht bezoeken. Deze mooie par 69 parkbaan laat zich goed bespelen. Midden in de zomer waren de fairways top en de greens schitterend. Prachtig werk van de greenkeepers. De ontvangst was ook super vriendelijk! Men ontvangt je echt als een ere-gast in deze club. Absolute aanrader als je in de buurt bent en 4 uur kan uittrekken om de 18 holes te spelen!

Excellent salon de thé Amazing interior, calm place, mind blowing view on Hedas district

Famous for its “Coucougnettes” but not only. Everything is delicious, lots of original creations and local specialties. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. Not to be missed in Pau.

Beautifully played out shop and cafe, like the tardis unexpectedly big. Lovely lady serving us a fantastic coffee, hot chocolate and variety of macrons. Also have to say love the tables

Amazing jams and chocolates.

Perfect for a breakfast stop before visiting the chateau.

Super yummy place! Good for a nice sweet craving, or when you have been super healthy for a while and you get tired of it! This is the place to go for dessert!

Everything spectacular!

excuse me?! this place is too good :) wow, tiny but finey ;) live this place!!

This one-woman-show is doing some riskily creative things for a midweek set menu, with ingredients that reflect the season, was lovely! She treated our dog well too. The only thing is that it was quite warm, both inside and outside, but hey, it's August!

This place was wonderful, and very accommodating to people who speak very little French. We would recommend to anyone looking for creative and delicious foods highlighting fresh local ingredients.

The meal was excellent- five courses, each a delight and discovery. Beautiful and elegant. Creative use of edible flowers, intriguing combinations of textures. I loved the use of seaweed in the first and last course. The two fish courses were delicious, and the lamb course was some of the best I have ever had. The dessert course was incredible- strawberries were amazing, exquisite, in both the sorbet and the little tart. Portions are appropriate for the number of courses. Good wine selection, with at least one half bottle offered. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Excellent meal, Fabulous products, and quantity well judged. Excellent wine list with reasonable prices. A little gem !

Excellent

(Translated by Google) An excellent, confidential place. The idea is to never know what the menu will be in advance; the excellent chef is happy to serve us at the Pau market halls, preparing excellent local products. A small room, it's best to book to be sure of getting a table. Last night, the chef introduced us to some wonderful flavors. (Original) Excellent endroit confidentiel. Le principe est de ne jamais savoir ce que le menu sera à l'avance, l'excellente cuisinière trouve son bonheur aux halles de Pau pour nous concocter d'excellents produits locaux. Une petite salle, il vaut mieux réserver pour être certain d'avoir une table. Hier soir la cuisinière nous a fait découvert de belles saveurs.

J'adore !

We were in Pau for three days. And every single day I ended up getting something here and every single day they served delicious pastry and deserts. AND they work on Sundays too! from the early morning! There was a 7people line before us and every customer was asking tons of questions,but girls managed everything just smooth and quick.so in 5 minutes I was sniffing from the bag in my hands the most pleasant morning smell-smell of freshly baked croissants. Thank goodness this place exists!

This is a small chain? Well it doesn’t matter because all the backed good are better!! seriously, the croissant was the best, i’ve tried in Pau and the Financiers were from another planet!

Is it wrong? …To eat 2 croissants and a pain au chocolate for breakfast and want more? Those were so amazing. As a croissant expert- been to 63 countries- these croissants were some of the best I’ve had for the best price. I was too ashamed to go in and buy more but the friendly blond woman probably wouldn’t have judged me; she was very friendly. Adorable atmosphere. Wow.

Adorable owner and amazing assorted desserts. Great view of the beautiful church as well! Will come again to try other menu as well.

Best brunch I've had in a while. Was difficult to find the power to leave

The best croissants so far in my life and a very nice owner. I can definitely recommend it!

Love place with very pleasent service! Greatly enjoyed! 😋

(Translated by Google) What a shame... Very nice and expected 2022 programming, BUT, no bands or groups.... the festive Occitan atmosphere is not on La Ciutat (Hedas), place François Recaborde, except it is a restored place for that, to promote Occitan identity! Then the atmosphere is dull among the traders, restaurants, bars in the historic district and the city center, none or too few display the colors (yellow scarf) of this animation with the air of "féria".... (Original) Quel dommage ... Programmation 2022 très sympa et attendue, MAIS, aucunes bandas ou groupes .... l'ambiance festive Occitane n'est pas sur La Ciutat (Hedas), place François Recaborde, hors c'est un lieu restauré pour ça, pour promouvoir l'identité occitane !

I went to this unique museum on a Saturday morning and had the entire place to myself. Yes, the displays are old-fashioned and dusty, but this adds to the quirky charm, and the museum deserves to have a lot more visitors, not least because of the extremely enthusiastic curator who is more than happy to share his encyclopedic knowledge of Swedish royalty and Napoleonic battles with you (if you speak French). It is testament to the story of one extraordinary man, Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, who came from fairly humble origins in Pau and went on to be one of Napoleon's most successful generals and was invited to become King of Sweden - and also of his descendants, the House of Bernadotte - artists, poets, musicians, reformers, some of whom went on to become crowned heads of various European courts in their own right. The top floor is pretty much laid out like a typical home of the period, with lovely examples of furniture from the Béarn. On the ground floor there is a collection of Swedish art from the early 20th century, including by two women artists who were pupils of Matisse. The museum closes over lunch from 12 - 2pm, and is incredibly good value - just 3 Euro admission.

It was closed for renovation when when we got there :-(

(Translated by Google) The Bernadotte museum is a pearl in Pau, small but full of history. To enter this place is to experience a piece of history. I highly recommend this place to history buffs!
