Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers comfy rooms with complimentary wine, is well-served by friendly and knowledgeable staff, and is conveniently located near the beach and not far from the airport. The dining experience includes typical Corsican products but may not suit all tastes. The little gardens add charm to the location.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with comfy beds and a quiet balcony to sit outside. The service was amazing, and the location was fantastic, close to the beach. The dining experience was not to my taste, but overall, it was a great experience.
I had a wonderful time at this hotel! The quiet balcony was perfect for relaxing, and the modern bathrooms were a nice touch. The air conditioning was a lifesaver in the hot weather, but the price was a bit steep for my liking.
The hotel provides a peaceful stay with quiet balconies to relax outdoors. The rooms are equipped with free air conditioning and breakfast. The service is exceptional, with knowledgeable and friendly staff available to assist at all times. The location is convenient, close to both the beach and nearby shops and restaurants.
