Hôtel du Palais Biarritz

The Eduniversal World Convention 2026 will take place at the iconic Hôtel du Palais, offering a remarkable setting for dialogue among global leaders in higher education.

Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this historic palace — originally built as the summer residence of Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie — embodies prestige, heritage, and intellectual exchange.

Biarritz has a long tradition of hosting international leaders and major events. In 2019, the city welcomed heads of state for the G7 Summit, reinforcing its position as a destination designed for high-level dialogue and strategic reflection.

A Setting Designed for Connection

Beyond its prestige, Biarritz offers a unique environment for the Eduniversal community:

  • A human-scale setting that fosters authentic networking and deeper conversations among academic leaders
  • A destination combining accessibility, safety, and exceptional hospitality with the cultural richness of the Basque region
  • An inspiring natural environment where ocean landscapes, gastronomy, and heritage create the conditions for reflection, creativity, and new ideas

The Hôtel du Palais stands as one of Europe’s most iconic grand hotels.

  • 57 suites and 85 luxury rooms
  • Many offering panoramic ocean views
  • Fully integrated accommodation for participants throughout the Convention


For the duration of the Convention, the hotel will be entirely privatized, creating a unique environment dedicated exclusively to the Eduniversal community.
