Hotel la Caravelle

Spent three nights here and had a fantastic stay. The staff was extremely helpful in booking taxis and helping with dining options. Staff in the wine cellar were incredible and created a fun atmosphere. As noted in other reviews there is a night club attached to the property which can be loud, however, our stay in room 316 was quiet even at peek hours for the club. The rooms were clean as well as the facilities within the hotel and you are in prime walking distance from the citadel, boat tours and tons of dining options.

Hotel is in a fantastic location. Right on the marina on the ground floor, short walk to Citadelle on 5th floor. Restaurant was some of the best food we had in Corsica. Room v basic (you need to request a hairdryer) but v clean. Marina side you need to be aware the noise level from the night club is v v loud, it does say on hotel details but possibly not quite prominently enough. We had noise cancelling head phones, the foam ones won’t wash! It’s either headphones or going to the club or spot the details and ask for a room at the back….of course then you don’t get the marina view. Pros and cons. Overall though we enjoyed the hotel. Small point, the car park is opposite the reception which is on Av Charles De Gaulle. Don’t drive down to Quai Jerome Comparetti which is what google suggests. You should spot the hotel on right as you go up the hill and the car park opposite on the left.

Fabulous stay in this lovely hotel. We had a beautiful large room - Santa Maria that faced the marina. Hotel was walkable to scenic routes and restaurants. Roxane at front desk was so helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this place.

Despite being a three star hotel, the facilities in our room were poor though there was a lovely view over the harbour and parking was good once we found it (after we'd wasted half an hour driving round looking for it so instructions could have been clearer). But I was very suspicious about the earplugs in our bedroom and realised on coming back to our hotel after dinner what they were for. We had to almost literally fight our way through security to get access to our hotel, there was a deafening disco with a DJ and our bedroom was right on top of it, overlooking people's heads. It went on until 2am which ruled out any sleep - I did a decibel reading and it was up to 75 decibels in our room so no way could we sleep. After that, we were treated to residents in the hotel who were obviously the worse for wear banging and crashing and shouting around the hotel. Thank goodness we only stayed for one night. We were all shattered the next day and really not amused - I feel we should be given a refund. There is no way they should allow a disco right by the hotel when there are lots of tourists with children present, absolutely dreadful.

Touring Corsica with friends we made a one night stop in this 3 star rated Hotel. I would like to start with the positive opinion, I am speaking from a professional viewpoint having been in construction for over 60 years and now in a supervisory position. Positive. Wonderfully situated with magnificent views over this very unique harbour. Parking is fantastic being almost level from the reception. Greeting was warm & very efficient, my room was NINA, very nicely appointed generally, clean & well presented. Negative. Although well presented evidence of being somewhat tired & not up to modern standards, the room lacked USB charging points and the biggest concern here was that the smoke alarm was sealed over with a plastic bag. photo. The side table that one would expect to house a refrigerator beibg 3 star, was empty exposing unfinished wood work. Photo Skirting board non matching & crudely attached, very DIY. Photo Bathroom clean but fixtures & fittings looked like salvage from a scrap yard. Photos. The W/C toilet pan was cracked from bottom to top although not leaking. Photo The downlight from above the mirror was fitted with different shape & type of exposed bulbs again look like second hand surplus. Photo Shower was stand up in bath with no screen or curtain & shower head could not be fixed & adjusted, this & the mixer taps, in my business these would have been thrown out long before the chrome had disappeared. Photo The door lock furniture was ancient & only had one fixing screw. Photo The extractor fan was in operative & shoud be coupled to the light switch. Photo Now comes the mystery as to why there were earplugs in the bathroom; we debated this over our meal however when returning to our respective rooms having to fight through street security as an horrendous disco had started in the adjoining building but one.. OH MY DEAR GOD...! This noise continued until 0200 in the morning followed by shouting & screaming & crashing of probably residents. The ear plugs presence became clear for what good they were... I may have gotten 3 hours sleep. To sum up... had this been made transparent when booking I certainly would not have stayed here. 3 star...? no way given my review, maybe 1 star being kind. I realise things have been tough for the hospitality industry but transparent standards are essential.

Do not book this hotel unless you want to stay awake until 2am listening to really bad house music from the open air nightclub that vibrates through the walls with strobe lighting that comes through the windows. It is impossible to sleep. The rooms are also small and old and the price is way to high for what this offers.

Beautiful views of the Bonifacio harbor, which is the most beautiful city in Corsica. The hotel is situated where everything happens. Could not be better.

Great hotell, location and staff! Was a lot better than we expected when we booked. Great with parking in Bonifacio with posibility to charge car. Nice petit dejuner as well as so friendly staff.

Excellent location on the harbor with possibility to access upper road going to the old town using the elevator. Great welcoming restaurant.
