Nicht mehr auf Höhe der Zeit.

Last minute Buchung. Das Hotel hat seine besten Jahre weit hinter sich. Der Service war moderat, das Frühstück außerordentlich übersichtlich, Kaffee musste in der Küche abgeholt werden, nach zwei Glas Orangensaft waren die Vorräte erschöpft. Unser Zimmer war nicht nur klein, sondern auch dunkel. Selbst tagsüber war elektrisches Licht nötig. Woher die formalen vier Sterne kommen, ist mir ein Rätsel. Zwei wären angebracht.

Très bon établissement. Bon hotel et très bon restaurant. Une seule suggestion : mieux gérer les accès à l'hôtel: Que les clefs des chambres permettent d'ouvrir la porte principale de l'hôtel sans avoir à demander au réceptionniste.

On the main road not in the village

The Hotel sits on its own next to the main road. Its possible to walk to the Vizzavona station but out of season there is nothing open. The evening food is tasty and plentiful - the 20€ plate of cheese and local meat was more than sufficicent for 2 as a starter and the mains are filling. Wine was a bit pricey. Great interior, an interesting old building and the owner plays live music apparently at the weekends.

Bergsemester

Personalen var mycket vänlig Mycket dålig frukost med bara marmelad till bröd. Hotellet drog dessutom pengar för första natten långt innan incheckning. Middag halvbra. Det finns restauranger i närheten, men man måste gå på skogsväg genom skogen och ficklampa behövs.

hotel de charme, sympa

Nous avons bien apprécié le calme, le lieu dans la nature. L'accueil a été très sympathique. Les services tels que le petit déjeuner, le repas étaient adaptés. Chambre spacieuse. Par contre quelques personnes ont discuté très tard le soir sur une banquette devant la chambre, ce qui nous a gêné. Dommage! Wifi, en plus! super!

een rustpunt met speciale sfeer

Wat een beetje tegenviel was het late uur van diner (19.30) wat na een lange dag wandelen een beetje een afknapper was. Als je het mij vraag kost dit de eigenaars klanten die vroeger gaan eten aan het stationnetje. Klein pijnpunt was dat de credit card machine niet werkte ... niet altijd evident om zoveel cash bij je te hebben als je een kamer voor 3 personen met een diner en ontbijt moet betalen. Het hotel straalt wel een sfeer uit die heel aangenaam is en de nodige rust bracht.

Trevlig hotell i skogen men kanske inte prisvärt..

Ett småtrevlig hotell som ligger i skogen under Mt d'Oro. Tydligen så har de som tradition att arrangera livemusik på lördagkvällarna vilket var väldigt trevlig. Hotellet drabbades av strömavbrott vilket gjorde att både ljus och varmvattnet försvann. Att behöva betala extra för en frukost bestående av blaskigt kaffe och några rostade baguetter är inte heller ok. Personalen kan inte engelska och när vi skulle betala så hade deras kortläsare havererat men de skyllde istället på att det var våra betalkort som det var fel på, vilket ställde till en del oreda.

Super trevlig personal. Fantastiska skogar och berg och kaskader in på knuten. Restaurangen behöver utöka sin utbud, det var inte så mycket att välja mellan.Vill gärna återvända, vistelsen gav en fantastisk inblick och upplevelse av den Korsikanska musiken.
