Hotels Near E.Leclerc Leclerc Rocade in Ajaccio

First of all and without much ado: I really have to issue a warning here. This hotel is an absolute disgrace. Nothing that is promised on the website is even close to being true. I booked this hotel for one night and - frankly - was surprised that the price had been reduced from supposedly over 100€ to under 70€ - but I put this down to the off-season. The check in. Coming from the airport, I wanted to check in 1 hour earlier than planned (to which, according to ******* as a gold member, I’m entitled to and this was advertised by the hotel, as well). The receptionist turned this down so I had to contact her manager. After a while, she came out of her office, deranged and obviously drunk, and slurred something about ”impossible behavior”. She was probably uncomfortable with her condition, as she could barely speak a sentence, because she gave me the key to my room and pointed out that the much-praised rooftop was closed due to a drainage problem and that I could ‚enjoy the beautiful sides of the city outside‘. The rooftop was one of the main reasons for me to choose this hotel. The room. I wasn't expecting much and didn't plan to stay in the room for long due to the good weather. What was important to me was the rooftop. When I entered the room, the blow hit me. The room was so small that I could hardly turn around. It smelled like mold. The guest's long hair was in front of me (or the cleaning staff?) on the bed, but I also found it in the shower. The ”view” from the tiny window shows the view of a dark courtyard from which there is a terrible smell of cigarette smoke. Uninsulated electric cables protrude from the ceiling. It was a nightmare. I took my stuff and went back to reception - I couldn't stay here. Waiting for the elevator, I heard loud and prolonged unambiguous moans across the hall - I've rarely been so ashamed of others. In short - there is nothing left of the ”gloss” of the ratings. Based on my experiences, this hotel can only be described as a hot sheet hotel (no-tell hotel). The manager was outrageous and her employee no less rude, but at least she wasn't drunk in broad daylight. Both of them steadfastly refused to refund me the amount paid. I will have to contact ******* over this. Clear negative recommendation from my travel experience in 2022. I strongly advise against a visit if style, ambience and health are important to you.

Leesa greeted us professionally on arrival, and provided us with Room 208; one of the historic rooms on the hotel. This generously-sized room had windows/doors opening onto a wrap around balcony so we had east-west AND north-south views. The bathroom also had doors that opened onto the balcony and all had outside shutters so the light an d privacy could be controlled. The room was spotlessly clean, and peaceful, restful and quiet. The bed was comfy, as were the pillows, and the linens were of good quality and expertly laundered. Parking is right on the street, and we had little trouble finding a spot within 50 feet of the door. That said, Leesa said I was lucky to find it. All in all this hotel provided an excellent value and the staff could not have been nicer. The area is great for walking so one we parked the car, we didn’t use it again u til we departed the hotel. There are many attractions bars, restaurants, shops and services within steps of the front door. There is even a proper barber on the same street, and I noticed a place for laundry on our sojourns. The area felt very safe and was well-lit in the evening. Two minimal disappointments and in fairness we didn’t discover them until it was too late to call the desk; -the heated towel rack in our room did not work, so a sink full of laundry didn’t dry overnight. It did dry on the east-west part of the balcony after the sun came up. - a lack of luggage racks in the room. One suit case went on the desk and the others were just on the floor. The wonderful and efficient Leesa also recommended and booked a table for us at Marinette, where we were treated to an excellent meal, prepared by the namesake’s grandson. Leesa also recommended an excellent knitwear designer’s clothing shop across the street, called Nine (pronounced Neene)

Even if the hotel is a little old, the staff is really pleasant. Good litter, quiet and well placed. A problem with the TV orders but it was offset by the welcome with a free coffee / growing in the morning of departure, sympathetic ☺️

We had a lovely one week stay at this hotel. It's rare that a hotel fully meets expectations, and on this occasion it did. We did opt for a superior room, and in my opinion it was worth it. Breakfast was good, pleny of choice. The bar was handy for returning late. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and you don't really need to go into Ajaccio centre to eat. If you head towards Ajaccio there are some good (but pricey) places. If you head in the other direction (towards the Iles) then there are a few more places that are not so expensive but they are offset from the coastal road. In the hotel the shower worked well, always giving hot water. The air con was good, sometimes we had to turn it off as it got a bit too much but very effective. Staff were friendly and the place had a really relaxing feel to it. We hired a car, and to be honest unless you want the stress of driving through Ajaccio and go out far, you don't really need one. There is parking at the rear and some street, although the street is exposed. The hotel is more like a 4-star, and we had nothing to complain about. Corsica is not cheap so I was glad to have chosed this as it turned out to be a really good choice. Oh and the ice cream was really good at the hotel bar.

Résidence très agréable,le personnel est accueillant et sympathique ! Les studios vue mer sont bien équipés ,la vue est juste magnifique on peut profiter du lever et du coucher du soleil !Le soir les îles sanguinaires sont juste magnifiques!!

Quite clean and neat. Modern concrete hotel, large rooms each with a balcony. Each room had a kitchenette - so I think this was designed more as an apparthotel set up. Some noise at night till 1am - nightclub across the field opposite. Very anonymous corridors, few lifts. Good pool. 10 minutes walk to beach, restaurants etc - but not an easy walk, some of the hotel's path lights were out, bushes growing into the path, there was not a continuous pavement, and cars parked in the drive (where it clearly said No Parking). Breakfast good, even at 0630. We did not have evening meals there - too late in the season? Staff friendly
