Loved the location, the staff was most welcoming, breakfast was good, room was clean, but the rooms are desperate for a facelift. Lumpy mattress, drab decor, outdated bath. More

very well situated in the center of the city, the San Carlu is the place to enjoy Ajaccio. Clean and quiet, difficult to get there with a car. Nice rooms, nice breakfast and staff. More

Having been traumatised by the awful hotel Kalliste we stayed our final night in Corsica here. Our room was pleasant, comfortable, bright and it had a view of the sea, the citadel and some donkeys in the moat. The unlocked wifi and aircon were great. It was the only hotel we encountered in Corsica with kettle, tea, coffee etc. Friendly... More

When we got to the Hotel they did not have our reservation for two nights that we had made in May. The Hotel was booked solid. The lady at the front desk told us not to worry she will make sure we have a room for the night. She arranged for us to have a room for one night, and... More

Situated right opposite the citadelle and near the beach and the old town this was an ideal location. Everything about the hotel (apart from the location) was quite acceptable but quite unexceptional. The bedroom was very ordinary the breakfast too, in a very functional looking room. Often breakfast times were restricted because tour groups were using the room and other... More

This hotel is well situated and the staff are helpul. But but it is dated and overpriced. We stayed in the attic room and banged our heads many times on the low ceilings so avoid this room if you can. More

We chose this hotel because it was in a good location and we managed to find it at a discounted rate on the internet. I think the location for us was the only positive. When we opened the door of our room we were greeted with an awful, musty smell so we immediately had to open the window to let... More

We were directed to the San Carlu by Corsicans who had ridden the bus from Piana to Ajaccio with us. It is directly across from the old citadel, and has a lovely view out over the Bay of Ajaccio. It is in the heart of the old, historic city, is only a block or two away from the Maison Napoleon,... More
