Whether it was dining at the hotel (all the food and wines are local and delicious), booking a lovely restaurant, or taking a trip by boat to a stunning local beach, we were totally looked after.

The restaurant has so delicious food and great wine recommendations from this area which you can enjoy with a magical view.

The restaurant staff delivered delicious food and great wine consistently.

It felt like you were staying in the owner, Georges’s home, the artwork is stunning, the food utterly delicious, we had the set menu each night.

Breakfast was good, typical French breakfast spread.

Our room was very comfortable, the hotel is absolutely beautiful and our dinners were delicious.

We loved the help of Marie and Sebastian and the wonderful dinners and breakfasts enjoyed on the outdoor deck each morning and evening (we ate at hotel all 5 nights).

Breakfast was included and terrific, served on the terrace with a view.

The meals there were very good too - breakfast was straightforward, typically French, with coffee, bread and croissants (although more options were available) and dinner was excellent with an imaginative menu and beautifully presented food.

Our meals were amazing and we especially loved the bountiful breakfasts that were brought to our room every morning.

There's a lap pool, which we enjoyed on both days of our visit, and gorgeous views over the valley from the breakfast terrace at the end of the garden.

We loved our trip out on the boat and our delicious meals at the hotel looking out across the view down towards the sea.

Breakfast and dinner can be taken overlooking the sweeping expanse of the valley.

The people were without exception friendly, the food and wine were delicious everywhere we went, and the natural beauty of the island compares to or beats anything I've seen.

We had a car breakdown and the staff were very helpful in arranging the car hire repair service.Meals are served around he pool area and breakfast was included in our package.

Our breakfast coffee on the terrace was the perfect way to ease into the day’s plans, and our one dinner there was delightful.

We woke up every morning at the hotel with a view of the sea and mountains from our room and the smell of sweet olive trees and flowers wafting through the windows.

but looked like it can suffer from damp (evidenced by dehumidifier and a musty smell).

but the road noise was a little intrusive. Breakfast was an excellent buffet, with staff on hand to assist (you can have your own omelette cooked to order!)

Breakfast was extraordinary with a chef on hand to prepare delicious omelets.

Friendly staff, breakfast seems to be too expensive at 22€ per person .

Hotel is Clean and dinner and breakfast excellent, they also have a very nice swimming pool.

Breakfast level of a five-star hotel: very varied, there is everything for every taste.

We did not use restaurant facilities since we came in in the evening and departure early in the morning before breakfast..

I ordered breakfast in, and it was delicious.

Breakfast is extensive and has a big variety.

Localisation near the airport, not far to the beach, hotel staff was very kindly, breakfest very varied, room very clean, sea view worths its price.

Tres beau hotel et superb piscine 
Domage que la chamber sentit des cigarette mais le lit comfortable 

Very nice hotel super staff great breakfast and lovely pool dinner was not bad balcony and music was very nice 

Only let down was room which smelt badly of cigarette smoke and had we been staying longer we would have asked to change rooms from 203 to any other !

An enjoyable 2-night stay - excellent buffet breakfast and Creole evening/dining on terrace with sea view.

I travelled a lot in my life and believe me a huge continental buffet is different.

The best hotel near the port of Bastia,very nice people,clean rooms,very good restaurant,a top breakfast,hotel with a private parking lot (not easy to find in Bastia),not far from the airport,easy to find. .

Breakfast was included in price which made it even better value.

Delicious the restaurant for the dinner and the breakfast in the morning.

One note: they are a bit of a drive from the center of the town, so if you don't have a car you will have to rely on taxi or other public transportation.

If you have a electric car, a 2x22kw with 3T connector charge point is avaible into the parking.

You need a car to get to BASTIA OR BEACH.

The hotel is situated in a business area, so you need a car to explore the surroundings.

You will need a car when you want to go to the center of Bastia.

The only downside is that if you don't have car, it's a bit difficult to get to the airport.

Therefore, unless you have a car, you are limited to the hotel restaurant where the food is acceptable if expensive.

Bed for the kid was placed in the room without it had been ordered, not a problem if the charge hadn’t been 10€.

however I thought that banning you from using the room towels and then charging you for a towel in the 'spa' was a bit cheeky even if it was only one euro.

Unfortunately, they do not accept all credit cards.

We were happy to stay only one night as the night was extremely hot - there was no airconditioning what so ever.

There was no air-conditioning in our room

OUrs was a superior room, it was a hot night and no air con

But there is a lot to be said for large, remote controlled ceiling fans: they make no noise and don't freeze you at three in the morning.

Relatively basic (no safe, no air conditioning

but summer may be a problem as my room had no aircon, only a ceiling fan.

but there's a celing fan so that wasn't a major problem.

No air conditioning (a fan was provided - and very necessary).

but not air-conditioning, and as the window opened on to the road that meant a fair amount of traffic and miscellaneous noise between around 7am and midnight (there are apparently a few rooms facing on to an inner square).

Before arrival, I was quite concerned since the reserved room was without air-conditioning.

We had breakfast in the little courtyard which was very pleasant.

Breakfast is offered and it's a nice continental spread.

It has a lovely interior courtyard, where you can have breakfast in good weather.

The breakfast was OK, the value for money was right.

This was a nice small hotel with charming furnishing and ok breakfast.

A small lounge area in reception, a tiny breakfast area and very central location which was ideal as I was able to walk everywhere from the Front Door.

Everything was spotlessly clean and we were even able to eat breakfast outside, as the weather was good in September.

We had cappuccino & croissant in the bar next door for breakfast.

We took breakfast here and found it to be sufficient.

Breakfast can be taken in the rooms, sweet indoor dining area or in the leafy courtyard.

They didnt supply any gluten free bread for breakfast

but we bought our breakfast at a nearby cafe.

Room was average size, charmingly decorated in a bit of a "shabby chic" style, building and room had lovely period details (wonderful central staircase, pretty breakfast room and small garden in a central courtyard).

Fortunately there is an excellent breakfast venue and bakers shop just outside.

For breakfast, I would recommend one of the many cafes aorund the same square starting from 5 euros.

Breakfast was available at 9 euros each in a quaint breakfast room,

The breakfast was delicious and served in the lovely courtyard garden.

comfortable not to big room, nice staircase, good breakfast, reasonable priced.

The downside was that we got a fourth floor room - the hotel has no elevator and the stairs look charming

Staff were friendly and helpful and spoke English, there is no lift

FYI- no elevator so had to lug suitcase up several narrow steep staircase floors.

Parking was a major issue as luggage had to be carried two blocks and no porter and no lift .

but a bit worn - no elevator, the stairs were worn down on one side so it was a little tricky to bring the luggage upstairs.

This is not a venue of choice for older, less mobile, visitors, with many steps and without a lift.

Some might not welcome the stairs -- no elevator.

The drawback was the fact that it didn't have a lift.

But here you have a hotel with no elevator, very bad crooked and old staircase, a nightmare for anyone with big luggage, no parking spots and no proper internet either.

The lack of lift, the absence of parking outside (unless you were very lucky) and the smallness of the rooms does not encourage a long stay.

The only downside was it was on the fourth floor without a lift.

Negatives: Quite a few stairs to get up to the first floor reception area and no lift.

For those of you whose legs don't work, be warned there is no lift (it's a historic building).

though there is no lift hotel reception staff carried my suitcase up and down the stairs for me without being asked, and they also readily agreed to my request to leave my suitcase at reception for several hours after I'd checked out - there was no charge for this service.

As you go up a floor to reception, note the well-worn stone stairs.

True, there are lots of stairs: true, some of the staff can be a bit abrupt -

Lots of stairs so wouldn't be suitable for less mobile

Also, as all the reviews state, there are no stairs.

The only possible problem is that you need to get up some stairs to get to the front desk, so it may not be for people with mobility problems.

but be prepared for a little old fashioned (but charming) arrangements - it is a nice old building and it would be a shame to 'modernise' it  

Not so good  - the stairs up to reception and then onwards to rooms but only relevant to less fit guests (and staff will readily help - just ask if unsure)

Like many we were on our way through so stayed there at commencement and end of two week holiday.

However, we found the hotel to have several negative aspects, the major one being the many stairs one has to climb (with one's luggage) to reach the hotel bedrooms.

The breakfast buffet is delicious with plenty to choose from and you can see a lot of thought has gone in to account for various dietary requirements.

The hotel serve breakfast and that had a great selection suitable for most tastes.

Breakfast is OK: sufficient choice and (once more) very nice staff.

The buffet breakfest meets almost all requirements.

Ample parking space on the hotel vicinity
Breakfast is eur 13, usually not included in the room rate.

Very pleasant reception and staff, excellent breakfast.

We also liked the buffet breakfast overlooking the garden, good choice of food including delicious home-made jams.

This hotel is to suggest to anyone decides to use this stay in order to relax in the same or to visit Bastia e the street landing to Cape Corse.

Lush flowers, nice pool set in a pretty garden, excellent continental breakfast.

The breakfast was adequate and the area was pleasant.

It was in beautiful condition, and included a bathroom of white marble, The breakfast was excellent,

We also enjoyed breakfast at an extra cost of 16 € / pers.

Regarding the breakfast buffet, this turned out to be one of the best we had in Corsica since we didn't have to ask for cold cuts, cheese or eggs: they were simply on the buffet.

Breakfast was a well laid out buffet and there were eggs (boil yourself) and toast available!

but you can ask for the "petit plan" continental option for 5 Euros instead.

Everything about it was wonderful - staff, room, pool, quiet location, breakfast room, view out to the water.

Also, the room was next to the breakfast area, so in the morning if we went out on our balcony we could smell the smoke from the smokers having breakfast on the terrace.

but to walk this is taking your life into your hands as there is no obvious pavement on sharp bends and is therefore dangerous - so I would recommend driving.

We ended up walking back late at night due to lack of taxis in Bastia!

The only drawback to staying here without a car, as we did, was that there is no restaurant in the hotel, so if you want to go into Bastia for dinner you have a long walk and the first half a kilometer is on a twisty road with no sidewalk.

While the hotel is not an easy walk from town, I fully recommend it to anyone who has a car!

Bastia can be reached by a 30 min walk (downhill, then along the much frequented coastal road), a taxi to the city centre is about 9 euros.

We didn't realise this before we booked, and wished we'd found somewhere else with a bit more going on where we could have walked to local beaches, restaurants, cafes, etc.,

Hotel Pietracap

Breakfast was all freshly prepared and perfect in every way.

helpful friendly staff great breakfast formula in a nice setting in the outside garden.

The offerings at the restaurant and bar are delicious and the atmosphere perfect in the low lighting beside the pool area.

€23 for a buffet breakfast is, quite simply, exorbitant.

That said, we soon discoverd you can eat delicious french breakfasts at most restaurants in Saint-Florent, for under 10 Euros.

Luxury hotel, tucked away between Oletta and St Florent, wonderful breakfasts, dinner, great pool, elegant room, quiet and lovely if you are in need of some R&R.

The wines grown by the owners vineyard were also delicious.

The breakfast buffet had a good range of food of good quality.

The pool and bar are lovely and breakfast really nice continental style.

Breakfast is decent although cooked food is just scrambled eggs and bacon

They are now doing a small selection of dishes for dinner  (it was only lunch before) and the food was absolutely delicious each time we decided to eat in the hotel.

The only meal they cater properly each day is breakfast which was wonderful and often supplemented by fresh figs and prickly pear fruit from the hotel garden.

Breakfast is served in a delightful courtyard, it is buffet style,

The breakfast was great and we ate in the restaurant several times.

the calm environment, excellent service, spacious rooms ( prestige) and delicious breakfast all compensate for what is quite a small site accommodating quite a few rooms

The personnel, no matter if at the reception, breakfast or the pool-bar were all extremely friendly and helpful without being overly present.

With a delicious breakfast and a refreshing swimming pool.

The breakfasts are of a buffet nature and  offers a good selection.

Having just arrived at another hotel which charges even more for breakfast I think it is quite common here

Breakfast  is a little expensive at 21 euros per person and would be better included in the room rate for an extra 15 euros for example.

Even if you pay for the breakfast, please note that you will be charged for anything extra (such as a cappuccino).

but they were all very tasty
All of this still close to Saint Florent and the beautiful village of oletta 
If I had to make any "complain" would be the fact that they accept kids which we think is not aligned with the hotel style, also breakfast was expensive (21€) for what it was

yes, the extra charge for the eggs is silly considering the price of breakfast (not included) and it is a small place, so best for a base from which to spend the day doing activities rather than hanging out here like you might a resort.

So we drove into Saint Florent every morning for a breakfast that cost about 1/4 of what they charged.

There were no tea or coffee-making facilities, at least not in our room.

but then you must be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes; similarly when the filter coffee runs out, well then wait again you must.

All in need in the morning is a bowl of cereal some coffee and maybe a croissant as I’m away,

20 euros per person per day), there was no breakfast tea after the second day of my holiday and no signs of any coming soon.

Breakfast was looking good, until they ran out of milk and we couldnt have coffee.

Quite surprisingly there was no kettle nor hot drink making facilities in the room - other places that we stayed in Corsica did have, we even had our own coffee machine at Bergeries du Prunelli (somewhere that we would highly recommend staying).

Downside - no coffee or tea making facilities in the room and zero laundry services, which is surprising for an inn with 4 star rating.

The only negative are the right handed tea pots, i'm not going to elaborate, you'll have to stay here to find out!!

Being British no hot drink facilities in room was a disappointment and @ €4 it was expensive to order a pre breakfast drink when breakfast charged @ €21 per person.

NEGATIVES:

Breakfast (if not included in your room rate, which it wasn't with ours) is charged at 21 Euros per person which in comparison to the rest of the island is extortionate!

But, no they quitebhappily charged us €2400 for 1 week in April ! !

Breakfast was a bit of a disappointment, especially considering the rather steep price (€24.50 per person): not much choice available and little fruit too.

but, and here's my only criticisms:-
a) It is very expensive for what it offers (even by Corsican standard), i.e.

Quiet and relaxing hotel with lovely and discreet staff (maybe slightly understaffed, I am not a fan of having to use a phone at the bar or desk to call for someone)
We had booked a suite where I would have expected a little more from, seeing the price.

Like others have commented our only gripe is with the breakfast charge and as such we ate out each morning.

The lunch and dinner menu was extremely limited and very expensive for what was offered.

We really do think that La Dimora ought to take a look at their pricing structure regarding this.

but it is not included in the price of the room.

One guest thought it a little pricey at 19 euros.

but given the price thought the add on cost for individual eggs was a bit over the top.

but not spectacular) and I do expect more at that price than what we got.

Breakfast is not included and is quite expensive at 19 euros

Breakfast is terribly expensive for not much.

If we know the price we had to pay already for a superior room (and knowing that breakfast is not included - costs 18€ pp), we find it personally a bit expensive, certainly when not finding back the right atmosphere, the place is just missing something .. it's 'cold', staff is ok,

Excellent breakfast on the rooftop with view on the sea and port.

There is also a bar which opens at 3 p.m. breakfast is also on the top floor.

Breakfast was in the room on the top floor and had a good selection of dishes, a good value at €12 per person.

A good choice: a short walk to restaurants, a really nice breakfast, a nice room with aircon, seperate shower room, and WC, and a minibar fridge.

The next morning we explored the hotel and found a rooftop swimming pool with a bright breakfast room next to it.

150 for a 2 persoon room (1 night) with 12 euro pp breakfast.

We didn't take breakfast as we wanted to have breakfast in the main square.

We did not try the breakfast at the hotel priced at €12 per person, as there was a lot to choose from in the city centre.

The breakfast is extra at 12 euros---not worth it, with very average quality croissant and breads.

Rooms clean & comfortable, large breakfast.

Very close to the ferry terminal, breakfast from 6am, free parking over the road, Clean spacious rooms, very large showers, clean, friendly staff.

Breakfast was fine and we enjoyed the stay very much.

Breakfast on 6th floor with an excellent view was also very good using local products.

They have a nice upper floor area where you can have breakfast or just chill out on prior to your ferry trip.

There is a beautiful rooftop terrace also for a breakfast or an aperitif in the evening!

As we where leaving the next morning at 6.00AM we asked if breakfast would be available and where reliably informed that if we spoke with the reception later in the day we could book an express breakfast for 4 euros per head, great price very simple breakfast which got us on the plane, we where also advised to demand the Terrance for breakfast which is normally reserved for main breakfast,

Breakfast is delicious and worth every penny of the additional amount of 6 EUR/person.

Unfortunately we did have an issue with billing for the hotel.
