Contrary to some reviews, I found this hotel superb. I booked online independently and as I was travelling alone asked for a non ground floor room. Everything was confirmed quickly by the hotel via email. I had only booked a standard room but when I arrived the room (which was a standard) was superb....spacious, light, with a balcony overlooking the fantastic views of the harbour and the distant mountains. It was spotlessly clean, huge king size bed, loads of room. The receptionist and all staff were unfailingly polite and helpful. I only ate breakfasts as I ate out at night but the breakfast was excellent - lots of choice on the buffet and freshly cooked pancakes when I asked for them. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

“Wonderful Corsica”

Just back from my first time in Corsica staying at this hotel - We had a very large suite with the most wonderful views of the sea and mountains - which I would recommend if you can afford to spend a little extra - I didn't see the ground floor rooms to comment but all the upper floor rooms have vi… lisää

Just back from my first time in Corsica staying at this hotel - We had a very large suite with the most wonderful views of the sea and mountains - which I would recommend if you can afford to spend a little extra - I didn't see the ground floor rooms to comment but all the upper floor rooms have views - we had a very large balcony with a table and chairs - so big in fact it would have been nice to have sun loungers too - the room was well equipped with a small fridge so you could buy your own wine and small food items etc as the hotel does not have a bar and restaurant which was no problem as a few nice ones (not cheap) around the area and Port Vecchio is a short drive away - we only had breakfast on the first morning as the previous review said it is very expensive for what you get - it is half the cost in town and other places on route - they let themselves down as would have more people eat there if prices were better - as I said super views which sell this hotel- I would definitely go back to this hotel again if I was in that area but lots more to explore -

“Overpriced, felt more like a 3 star”

Very scenic location and friendly staff but the rest was a disappointment-we had a ground floor room which probably meant we pulled the short straw - on our way there we saw piles of disused equipment not so well hidden along the path. When we got to the room the bathroom was lovely but the rest fe… lisää

Very scenic location and friendly staff but the rest was a disappointment-we had a ground floor room which probably meant we pulled the short straw - on our way there we saw piles of disused equipment not so well hidden along the path. When we got to the room the bathroom was lovely but the rest felt quite tired like it needed an upgrade. We said yes to breakfast just to try it which was €15 each for juice, coffee and unlimited bread. I know we were in France and they'd called it 'continental' but I'm pretty sure it was still a ripoff. The next few mornings we stayed in and drove to get breakfast at a nearby supermarket but little did we realise the coffee pods in the room cost €1 each-not something I'd expect from a 4 star. Finally we tried the spa one day which looked lovely when we walked in..but on closer inspection there was a cleaning device left by the side of the pool with clumps of hair on it, the jacuzzi seats were worn, and the steam room and sauna were off. Overall my main complaint would be it felt overpriced and oversold itself for what it was. In terms of location its fine-10 min drive to Palombaggia in one direction and 10 to Porto vecchio (if you didn't know already a car is imperative) in the other but it was the hotel itself that was disappointing for us.
