I Cannot fault this place. We just one week at Hotel Piatatella and were simply wowed. We had the room in the main building called Monte Grosso. Waking up to the view from the balcony each morning was simply spectacular. One of the best views we have ever had from a bedroom. |The hotel is charming and boutique style with only 17 rooms. Everything has been so tastefully decorated that it was a complete pleasure staying there and we felt very at home. We explored the Baling region, using the hotel as a base and tended to do half day’s exploring and half a day by one of the two beautiful swimming pools. |There is an honesty bar at the first pool which seemed to work well. I worked out one morning in the the very calming all wood, almost sauna styled gym which has a yoga pavilion looking onto the Corsican Marquis. It was so amazingly located and thought out. Very simple in terms of the machines available however just enough to get a decent work out. |Next comes the food, carefully prepared by chef Marie. We ate at the hotel for 3 nights out of our week and it was the best food we have eaten whilst in corsica. The 3 course menu with amuse bouche is incredibly well priced at 48 Euros per head. I believe it was Sunday night where we ate a vegetable tart, magret de canard and moulleux du chocolate. The local wine is very well priced and what I loved was ordering a bottle of wine by the pool and just keeping it in their fridge for dinner or even the following day. These simple touches make the hotel have a feeling like home away from home. |Our room was very comfortable, simple, yet stylishly done. The bathroom was a good size with a bath a decent sized shower. Even tiny details like the washing line on the balcony were well thought out. |All of the staff were very friendly (shout goes out to Samuel) and one of the owners who we met was delightful. She spoke perfect English. |Going to the beach , we were offered towels for the day along with plastic money holders which are invaluable having forgot mine back home. We cannot wait to return to this amazing hotel. We spent a week down south in Bonifaccio and all we kept reminiscing was about the beautiful, raw, North and Hotel a piatatella.
