Hôtel Maquis Et Mer

“Very nice people, nice room, a bit close to the road, a town to leave behind”

The receptionist was very receptive, and gave a very good impression. The rooms were a bit small, but very comfortable and well kept. So for sleeping, we were very happy.

The receptionist was very receptive, and gave a very good impression. The rooms were a bit small, but very comfortable and well kept. So for sleeping, we were very happy. It is located right on a busy road, although on the 3rd floor, we avoided being too close the noise, we did feel that we may have been breathing some less-than-healthy air. The town seemed to make a lot of effort to promote a image as a happening place, but one notices these things, and judges that they’re “trying too hard”. We were lucky to be on the far side away from the bands that played until late at night in August – all a part of the “happening place” striving effort. We were late to reserve in the summer, so we ended up here and used it as a base. In the summer that worked because we were on the motorcycle. Going to Porto Vecchio with a car in August could make you cry.

“Good first impression but.....”

Overall first impression was very good, the new owners have done a good job decorating with warm colours and Nordic type furnitures, quality goods and attention to details at the reception and landing area, the Restaurant furniture is also quite nice.

Overall first impression was very good, the new owners have done a good job decorating with warm colours and Nordic type furnitures, quality goods and attention to details at the reception and landing area, the Restaurant furniture is also quite nice. The Hotels provides 2 electrical charging points and 8/10 car space with free public car park nearby. Friendly and welcoming couple, the building on the left is original late 18th century the right handsome is more modern. The "old" building decoration is nice, lots a classic pairings reproduction, small tables and seats...all done with good taste. The rooms are nice and cosy, the front door are heavy (and fully fireproof, good heavy doors) and the beds are OK. So far so good. Now on the downside, the hotel terrace could be great, but a bit on the cheap side and not always as clean as I would expect. Not to mention that it's full of cats and some of them are quite sick, this is a real issue as we had guest who were allergic to cats and the owners were not helpful in this matter, we wanted to use the terrace for a drink and to relax we could not, same issue during breakfast when we could not access it due to those cats, this is not an issue for most but frankly not acceptable when this is the only option available (in the evening they have no restaurant so we would have liked to use this to eat some snacks and have a drinks but Nope! In addition there are signs mentioning that you cannot eat in your room...Hopefully you Love cats if not stay away. Good points: + Most of the rooms on both building are clean, well decorated and quite confortable. + The Breakfast is good value at 6€. + Electric charging points. + Located near all Bars and restaurants. To improve: - Having multiple cats arounds during Breakfast and in the terrace is a no go sorry. - Some rooms do not have AC, lighting in some rooms is an issue on the Old building (no ceiling lights). - Outdated bathroom and poor amenities. Overall, a very pleasant hotel, but not suitable for everyone a shame as the owners are putting a lot of effort into making this a cosy place.

“Clean basic One Night hotel”

On the main road a Corsican Travel Lodge. No real sea views but clean and basic. Loveliest welcome from owner. Restaraunts around basic and narrow menu. Beach 500m away small but swimable, no pool at hotel. Good stop over Bastia to Bonafacio visa versa.
