Hôtel L'Alivi

Location is superb , so convenient for the ferry, and with fabulous sea views from all balconies. Helpful lady on reception. Rooms clean and beds comfortable. Rather curious policy about no outside drinks to be consumed in room ( easily ignored, we are on our holiday, and want a glass on wine on our balcony! ) Food is good and restaurant location is excellent . Our booking for dinner on the 2nd night was lost, so given a slightly disappointing table . Having said that , waiter was very good . All in all we’d stay here again if coming or going from Bastia , also it’s a great point to start the epic drive around Cap Corse .

Beautiful location right on the sea. You can hear the sea so clearly from room or balcony. Hotel a bit soulless. Building a little dated however new bathrooms have been added and beds very large and comfortable..we didn't eat breakfast there as too overpriced. 30 mins walk to Bastia old town.

The up sides: The setting is great. Lovely pool area and close to the beach. Great seaview. Great breakfast and nice and serviceminded breakfast staff. Nice and clean. Towels for the pool and beach. To be improved: A few strange rules. No eating or drinking in the room. No buying water or food elsewhere ( what ..) The restaurant is rather expensive and the service in the evening quite slow. We did wait 1 hour from ordering untill serving. And it was not that busy.. and the meat had to be returned for another cook ( was raw). The rooms are small and the stay expensive. The fitness area is like a sauna. No fan or air con. Impossible to do fitness in that hot room. It also contains a sauna… and lacks space and madrasses and weights.

Very nice and clean hotel for those considering to make Bastia their base in the island. Very happy with hygiene standards and the staff. However, the room service was disappointing. It was very late + horrible tasting pasta. One of the worst in my life. Because how can you make pasta bad? Don’t want to think of other dishes. Nevertheless it was a good stay.

The view from our room was wonderful! The staff is extraordinarily nice. Due to an injury had to arrive one day later than our booking but didn't have to pay for the missed day. Thank you for the great stay!

Small, but convenient little hotel with an incredible sea view from all the rooms. Very calm area, nice to relax. The pool area is nice and clean, the stone beach is very private. Rooms clean and nicely equipped. There is a bus station right in front of the hotel, where you can use the bus to go to Bastia town. We would definetly come back again.

We stayed here for two nights at the end of our two week tour of Corsica where overall we stayed at 6 different hotels all rated 3-4 star. |This Hotel has some very good points but we felt it was between 25-30% too expensive compared to the other hotels we stayed at.|Maybe it is because it’s 5 minutes drive away from Bastia with good views over the sea is the reason for this high cost, but then all the other hotels we stayed at were in excellent and in fact better locations.|The service we received though from the front desk was excellent, friendly, welcoming and very efficient. Based on reading the reviews on TripAdvisor we requested a Superior sea view room on the third floor No.34 and this was allocated to us when we arrived at 2pm and already for us. |A good room with balcony where you see the boats, the sunrise and hear the waves hitting the rocks below. Very pleasant. Good protection from the sun, and the aircon works very well.|The bed is average and Queen size, and this could be improved to a better quality King size. The room is well fitted out and good size bathroom and separate toilet. The shower though within the bath seemed dated, although the pressure was good, it was awkward. |The breakfast seating outdoors only had three tables in the shade! and at 16 Euros for the buffet was at least 30% too expensive. The cooked section was poor - the omelette cold: coffee bland: only natural water - no sparkling water available! Fruit selection poor: - 9 Euros would be a fair price for this breakfast.|The hotel has car parking space for the guests - just! |The swimming pool and loungers with shades was very pleasant.|The complimentary WiFi did not work from our room when we arrived, but after reporting this the problem was rectified in 5 minutes and subsequently worked very well.|The ‘beach’ below is rocky! And we did not use.|We did not use the hotel restaurant or the fitness room.|Yes, we enjoyed our two night stay here, even though this was the most expensive hotel we stayed at in Corsica.

Wow what a hotel. So friendly and helpful. Especially the ladies on reception. Breakfast was excellent, the room superb. The restaurant and pool were wonderful. Absolutely no complaints at all. Thank you so much for everything.
