Hotel Pozzo di Borgo

I'm a travel agent and explored Corsica for a week. Hotel Pozzo di Borgo is in a great location in the middle of the attractions, restaurants, and shopping. Best customer service from check-in to check-out. Bathrooms can use a bit of updating, but I had no complaints and the room was comfortable. I highly recommend this property for your stay in Ajaccio.

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)

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Location was perfect to explore the town as well as being in a very famous street where Napoleon was born. Information from the hotel regarding arriving with our car was easy to understand – unfortunately the gate into the pedestrian only street was not being supervised when we arrived, but the lovely receptionist from the hotel walked down to sort things out for us. Information on what to do & see as well as restaurant suggestions were also given. The room was extremely comfortable & a great size, along with the bathroom. The only thing missing is a fridge, especially in this warm weather it would be great to be able to keep some drinks cold. The valet service offered for the car was not cheap, but it was well worth it to be able to arrive at the hotel & have the car taken care of…..& then delivered next morning freshly hosed off & bottles of water inside the car – great service!

This boutique hotel is ideally located in a historic building in the heart of the old town next to the Maison Bonaparte. The rooms are spacious and clean with large comfortable beds. The breakfast buffet offers a selection of quality foods. Currently the bar, sadly, is not operational. The staff is friendly and helpful. The night manager, Thibault, who speaks excellent English shares willingly of his vast knowledge of the history of Ajaccio, Corsica and the significant people who have lived there.

Très belle expérience ! Merci à Lisa pour ses précieux et pertinents conseils. Bon choix de restaurants et réservations de restaurants de plage. Emplacement, propreté, services et gentillesse au rendez-vous. Bravo et Merci. Cathy Vincent

L'emplacement de l'hôtel est idéal: en plein coeur de la ville historique. La rue devient piétonne en saison, ce qui rend le cadre d'autant plus agréable. La bâtisse est chargée d'histoire, les chambres spacieuses et la literie incroyablement confortable! L'accueil y est très chaleureux, avec un service personnalisé. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, avec des produits locaux excellents. Mention spéciale pour le patio, très agréable et fleuri.

Hôtel avec une très belle situation mais malheureusement c’est tout les chambres sont sales et mal entretenues (peinture qui s’écaille, moisissures dans la salle de bain) ce qui est dommage car le cadre et les parties communes sont très jolie

Literie très confortable. Situation parfaite dans la vieille ville, mais proche de la plage, du port et des commerces. Le monsieur qui sert le petit-déjeuner est très serviable et à l écoute...hôtel très confortable et calme avec une très belle cour intérieure fleurie pour le petit-déjeuner..je recommande vivement...nous reviendrons.
