The perfect hotel!
Fantastic little hotel situated on the outskirts of ajaccio. Situated conveniently by the sea, the hotel is located within a very picturesque area, away from the rush of Ajaccio. The hotel restaurant had a great selection of items and the staff made me feel very welcome.

Helen, charlotte, NC

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The hotel is way out of town, the taxi was over 55 Euro to get there from the airport. And one more thing, they tried to put me in the worst room, I assume because I was a woman traveling alone....I was moved to a little better room, but nothing special. The hotel staff was rude, and didn't like the fact that I could not speak French and a waiter insulted me when I requested a menu in English. The food at the restaurant was underwhelming but the view was great. The hotel staff did not seen to know what was going on around them. I asked if there would be fireworks and that said absolutely no... they lied. Of the few tours offered by the hotel, none were in English. I would not go back to the hotel and probably Corsica due to this experience.

Good , but needs some polish.
Nice but small room. Hotel was very empty so they could have given us a complementary upgrade. Nice restaurant, terrace and pool area. Good service at dinner. Breakfast was disappointing- cold eggs and bacon and poor quality coffee. The rest was very good. The front desk staff need to know more about the local area.

Stunning location - hard to better. Most staff excellent and very helpful, some not so. Towards the end of our stay standards seemed to drop as the season closed. It was also disappointing that a small hotel (32 rooms) shifted it's focus to large groups and conferences as the season ended much to the detriment of the residents. With a little more attention to detail this would have been an excellent hotel though.

Great hotel, great location - in need of some love
Can't fault the hotel's location - beautiful setting, on the water overlooking Les Iles Sanguinaires and Ajaccio. We learnt from friends on the island that the owner had passed away and the current owners are not interested in running a hotel. This is quite clear, which is a shame because the hotel could be amazing. The staff are all friendly and helpful, everything is kept clean and tidy - the chambermaids and the gardeners work very hard. The current owners / managers do not. With a bit of love and care, this hotel would be great. New ownership / management is needed.

Beautiful facility on the outskirts of Ajaccio. Highly recommended but €30.00 supplement for a dog is excessive. Breakfast was €24.00 per person and not worth it.

Lovely hotel!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolce Vita. We had a junior suite which was very large and comfortable and opened out to a sun terrace and directly down to the private beach. The staff were friendly and helpful, and our only slight negative was that on one evening the restaurant seemed to have a very limited choice. Many of the dishes listed were unavaillable, including two from the day's recommendations! Overall an excellent hotel though.

Vue superbe depuis la chambre et la salle/terrasse du petit déjeuner. Petit déjeuner très bon et de qualité avec un personnel très agréable et extrêmement souriant (mention spéciale pour le serveur) un peu de diversité serait encouragé car ce sont les mêmes produits tous les jours. Chambre très spacieuse. Petit bemol:ménage négligé le dernier jour... Pas de papier toilette, traces dans les toilettes... Literie un peu dure Mais lieu fantastique !

Room 121 they gave me is the worst one ever. You get hit in the face by the most pungent sewage odour as soon as you open the door. Even the AC was useless in driving it away. I had to leave open the veranda door, which was unsafe because it being on the ground floor. To pay more than 600 euros for two nights only to be given such a disgusting room is irresponsible. They know about this problem, but they choose to give out the room because they only care about making money. It’s entirely a deception. Besides, you get this feeling of being a cheap hotel that has lost its quality. No bottled water. No pressing iron, no dressing table, which as a woman is hyper compulsory for me. The bathroom was left in a deplorable condition. Only goodness knows who cleaned up after you. There are better hotels in Ajaccio, but they were all fully booked. I will never come here again, and I don’t recommend them. Please, go elsewhere. Try Radisson Blu or Best Western Residence; both are near the airport.

Superbe nuit !!
A l'occasion de notre anniversaire de mariage, nous avons choisi cet hôtel et nous ne l'avons pas regretté! L'accueil a été parfait et très chaleureux. La chambre était spacieuse et la vue sur les sanguinaires magnifiques. Nous avons pu bien profiter de la grande piscine chauffée. Enfin, nous nous sommes régalés au restaurant pour le dîner avec des plats recherchés et pour le petit déjeuner qui proposait tout ce que l'on peut espérer d'un buffet d'exception (jus d'orange pressé, pancakes, saumon, brioche, salade de fruits frais,....). Merci pour ce court mais fabuleux séjour !
